Well, obviously. But we both know that even if I did go like you suggest, it would be "you just think you're a special snowflake" followed by "tits or get out."

I really don't think that would happen.

You're speaking in absolutes - yes, I've known some sexually successful douchebags. That doesn't negate what I'm saying.

But have you seen sexually successful nice guys? And I'm defining success as punching above your weight, physically, in dating. The guys who dated women significantly better looking than themselves that I've seen in my life were all extremely douchey. I'm not saying all hot girls require a douchebag, but the hot girls who dated nice guys only dated nice guys of equal or higher physical SMV, whereas I saw some willing to date douchebags who weren't exactly lookers, which suggests that there's a shortage of alpha at each physical tier, which suggests a larger than 1 ratio of women who prefer alphas to natural alphas. Every man I've talked to online, or their posts, all say the same; that the guys who punched above their weight were massive a-holes.

Perhaps. Why? Do nerd girls not count? Because I'm a bit nerdy myself.

They count, but I'm not sure they're representative.

No, but I know I've seen them. Lots of comments on here like "my ex used to do that and he was an asshole" or "so glad my current bf isn't like that." Why do you think all these people are here on this sub? They don't run their lives the way RP claims everyone does. I've also received tons of PMs from women relating to me how their boyfriend/husband upped the alpha behavior - sometimes RP-influenced, sometimes not - and it made her miserable and/or destroyed the relationship.

I'm trying really hard to find these stories and flailing. I've tried "asshole," "too alpha," "alpha," "field report," "terper," "aggressive," nothing.
