In September of 2009 I was interviewed by Shannon Kell of the Central Florida Future. During the interview I mentioned the phrase “success with women”.

From memory, Shannon immediately asked what I meant by “success”. (I do not remember what she added to the question, if anything at all).

My response was crisp: success with women is whatever a man decides. It is any form of sex he desires, with any number of women he desires, through any type of relationships with those women, that he so desires – so long as he does not compromise his ideals in the pursuit of those desires.

And, so long as he is the one deciding, thinking, and acting for his own self.

I am obviously paraphrasing at this point, but this was the essence of what was said – with the word “compromise” being an exact word used during the real time response.

I knew it then, and I know it ever the more clearly now: there is no room for compromise…
