Real Modern Man

If you haven't already, go read the blog post with the same title as this post. Read it? Good.

As Homer Simpson says, “It's funny, because it's true.” I recognised myself in the description of the unconfident guy who won't make a move. The bit about the ninja nearly left me in tears – I've been guilty of not talking enough. Although it gives me an idea for a roleplay…

Thanks for posting that, JWS.

In game theory terms, escalation is win/neutral.

Not escalating is lose/neutral.

Let me explain:

If you assume she is interested, at worst she is not, or will not for whatever reason which may or may not be germane to the moment at hand.  At best you get laid.

Assuming she is NOT interested sexually means you don't get any at all, whether she is interested or not.

The only exception to this is women playing the rapo game.  That's not all that common, and fairly easy to avoid with careful attention to her body language and her reputation.  Having a “slutty” reputation is fine, but if you hear a women is “cock tease” you attempt to engage her sexually at your own peril.
