Written as dating advice for “The Modern Man” (a misnomer if ever there were one), it promises a solution to the hot ‘n’ horny down-on-their-luck young bucks of the world who face the tedious obstacle of a woman wearing headphones, because how dare she...You can read it in its full entitled glory, or stick with me as I dissect each grubby, jaw-dropping delusion of psychopathic awfulness. It’s going to be quite a ride.

(Responses have been all over Twitter; here's a short roundup from The Daily Dot.)

This post was deleted for the following reason: An apt dissection of a truly sucky thing, but we've had this discussion a million times, and eh, terrible PUA garbage is terrible PUA garbage. -- LobsterMitten



 
The author, Dan Bacon, runs a website called "The Modern Man" (which I shall not bother to link to), where he sells the following services:

I'll Show You Quick and Easy Ways to Instantly Experience More Success With Women

How to make women feel INTENSE attraction for you...even if you're not tall, rich or handsome.
The real reason why a lot of good men fail with women...and what to do instead.
hat to say to turn a woman on and make her want to have sex with you ASAP. (This is very easy to do. You've got to try it!).


So he's a hawking a shitty PUA-style program and I'm sure those articles were published to somehow legitimize him as an instructor.

Sort of backfired, although, who knows? Maybe PUA types think, hey, this guy attracted a lot of attention from THE LADIES and I will take any attention from THE LADIES even if it is NEGATIVE LADY ATTENTION hoybitz!

I can't help but imagine his students are all Jerry Lewis.
