The Real Secret to Picking up Women

Unless it’s content directly from The 21 Convention, I don’t post much anymore about male/female relationships. The things I do post, and think about, are much higher level concepts.

Stuff like the psychological significance of accepted meta-physical and epistemological basic premises in the context of a heterosexual mature romantic love relationship between two individuals of relatively high self-esteem and of approximately equivalent general psychological maturity.

That shit makes sense to about .00001% of the human population because it requires not only a wide range and depth of knowledge, but also the capacity to make coherent sense of multiple, consecutive layers of abstractions … from abstractions … from abstractions … and so forth.

That said, I do have some personal thoughts about pickup in the common sense of the term, which for my purposes here, deals externally and only with

Meet ——> Sex ——> Establishment of a Sexual Relationship

Those thoughts can be effectively summarized in the phrase

Don’t chase, ever.

For the majority of the male human population living in a civilized — read feminized — society, who are psychologically mature…

No Fluoride x 4 years + No Dentist x 6 Years = Perfect Teeth

Until 48 hours ago, I had not seen a dentist for any reason in over 6 years. I have completely avoided fluoride toothpaste for about 4 years, and have avoided water containing fluoride as often as possible during that same span of time.

According to the dentist, I do not have a single cavity.

I drink coffee almost every day for going on two and a half years now.

My teeth are significantly whiter than average.

Apparently my gums are lightly inflamed. According to the scale presented at the dentist’s office, I am dead center average with this.

A regular cleaning should “fix” this, but I question whether the inflammation actually means anything.

I’ve taken about 5,000 IU of Vitamin D3 every day for over 2 years. I started taking a daily supplement of Vitamin K2 about  2 months ago. I continue to eat plenty of grass fed dairy, especially butter.

I brush once daily. Rarely twice. I always use fluoride free toothpaste with a bit of baking soda sprinkled on….

The Paleo Solution to Body Odor and Deodorant

Many that consider themselves “paleo” are not just looking for answers in the field of nutrition and exercise, but are looking for valid alternatives to conventional wisdom in other areas of life as well. Sleep, posture, cold plunges, and sunlight come to mind, but what about general hygiene?

Admittedly, this (a natural deodorant that works perfectly) is something I’ve struggled on and off with for a long time. This is probably due to not caring very much. I shower at least once, and often twice a day. I scrub my entire body with a natural soap — free of weird shit I can’t pronounce — and that’s good enough for me. My thinking has always been if it’s not good enough for people around me, too bad.

At the same time, I have occasionally picked up a “natural” deodorant. The ones that work, if only for short time, eventually irritate my arm pits. Most don’t work at all. Scented, unscented, etc.

Of course, I’ve…

Video | An Introduction to Self Defense + First Time Firearm Selection

 
So far as I am aware, this is the single, best, comprehensive, video introduction to self defense and first time firearm selection on the internet. Everyone can learn something from it. Only more so if you live in the US or Switzerland and have the ability to privately own a firearm.

Here’s a picture of my new gun by the way. Similar to my old carry gun, but significantly thinner (I believe one of if not the thinnest 9mm handgun in the world), lighter, and to put it bluntly, a hell of a lot better build. If my old handgun was made out of plastic this one is made out of granite.

Florida made to! =)

BTW, here is the flashlight Bravo used in the video and that I now own and carry as consistently as my handgun itself.

The First 100K 21 Convention Video

I just got word that the newly released speech from The 21 Convention 2011 of London England, “Becoming the Gorilla” by Brad Branson, is going to be going out to some big distribution channels. Big big. Meaning, I suspect very strongly that this will be the first 100,000 view 21 Convention video, within 12 months of release. Perhaps even less time.

The video so far has done well. 2,600 views in 5 days. Not bad. But even so, the view rate should be skyrocketing very soon, and from there, going sky high. It should surpass even the great Doug McGuff 21 Convention video, which is scheduled to hit 50,000+ within 12 months of release — which will also soon be ranking #1 on Youtube for “paleo diet” searches.

Awesome? Yes, very awesome.

In any case, Brad’s speech is pretty bad ass. Check it out by clicking the picture. Thumb it up if you want to see it continue…
