Approach her. Make fun of what she is reading and tell her free will is a lie. Laugh and call her a child when she disagrees. I tell her God and every "value" she has been inculcated with are spooks.
Slap the book out of her hands and kiss her; she wets herself. I leave, her womb aching for my seed. She meekly follows me out of the bookstore and asks what I'm doing. I smile, fuck her in the mall parking lot, call her a used up cunt, and never see her again. She masturbates to me daily and compares every man against me.

If by "gauge general interest" you mean have a fucking conversation, then yes. Look, not every conversation you have needs to contemplate the spark of human creation against the stars, the vast emptiness of the cosmos.

Going to the bookstore is a solitary experience and someone else's presence ruins it for me. A girl tried talking to me about religious studies when I was browsing the theology section and it ruined my entire trip to the store.

I dunno about that shit bro, but lemme tell you about my two most successful, uh, close encounters.
The first happened at a graduation party, I met some chick that was really into astrology, I was drunk, told her she believed in bullshit and somehow made out with her that same night. I could have fucked her, but the grad party took place at her brother's house, and despite knowing 3 of the people living in that house, none would have lent me their room so I could fuck.
The second one just happened. I didn't do anything, this girl was drunk but into me, later on I found out she was married, saw her again, sober this time, she got drunk, and then begged me to "fuck her as hard as I could in [my] car."
Take from that what you will.

Negging is just bants. Friends playfully tease each other all the time. If you can pull it off with a stranger it creates a feeling of equality and closeness because you drop your everyday facades a little bit. If you find the concept repulsive it is likely because you can't pull it off because you are a self-serious autist who would call someone something explosive a niggerbitch instead of being playful. Your distaste of the concept is likely a survival mechanism because you know you would only ever fuck it up.

Wow. You've assumed quite a lot. I doubt negging is the only underhanded tactic PUAs use. Regarding negging, I don't see a problem with teasing friends or even new acquaintances, depending on their reaction. However, I've heard this argument about equality and closeness before, and you're putting the cart before the horse. Negging doesn't produce these feelings; indeed, without them, they work the opposite magic. Equality and closeness are required before you can engage in such banter. Doing otherwise is something other than good rapport.

Undoubtedly, but you're framing your argument as a failure of mine, and in doing so you're failing to understand that my position is based on others who constantly neg despite never earning rapport. I'm sure you're just trolling, but in the instance that I'm wrong, I suspect you still know people who do this. They neg and neg and neg, and instead of gaining trust and equality, they come off as boorish and annoying. Being able to tease a friend is something you have to earn. If you legitimately think you can just be a dick right off, well, I doubt your friends are very good ones.

Yes, as someone with an encyclopedic knowledge of PUA, it it designed to maximize odds of gaining consent for sex. Notches on the bedpost. "Nothing personal". I used to think I could "dip in" to PUA and get a girlfriend. Perhaps possible but it's explicitly not designed for that.

>>15102387
Negging is not "just" anything. You're either doing it by the book or you're "just" playing around with it.

>>15102448
Negging isn't to get her to feel good. It works, but for the same reason making a woman call herself a fat pig during sex might make her cum. Women are unique from men.
>Equality and closeness are required before you can engage in such banter. Doing otherwise is something other than good rapport.
Not even close, sadly. Women respond to it precisely because it's "catty". Like something a fag would say. See pic related.

>> No.15102510

The thing about "negging" is in order for it to work she has to already be somewhat interested. It's the same illusion that leads women to believe they like funny guys, in truth they just think all the guys they like are funny.

So your argument no longer that negging never works but is basically there are people who abuse the technique? Obviously. That goes for most things. Being sent flowers is nice. Being sent flowers everyday would be annoying. No one here is arguing that you should base all your social interactions around negging, only that people who get upset about tend to be extremely rules oriented, largely because they suck at socialising. My brother is an aspie and is like this, he has a linear checklist he goes through when meeting people because it is the only way he can function and fucks up when he goes off script. The other people who hate are white knights who abhor the concept of ever saying anything that could be deemed as negative about a woman, even if it is in the lightest of jests.

Well, I made that into something of an absolute statement, but what I meant was, you need equality and closeness before such banter works in a friendly, jovial, communal sort of way. You can certainly engage in negging whenever you'd like, but you probably won't be making any friends that way, which—I suspect—isn't typically the aim. I know guys who think they need to neg every other guy in the room to make friends, but it doesn't work. It certainly works for other things, however.

You only neg the target. In what little I've read on how to properly AMOG dudes, it doesn't seem that direct negs are used on men.

I'm only here to correct misconceptions. PUA is not to make friends, as stated before: it is to get a girl into the sack, as efficiently as possible, without resorting to roofies. There is no other goal. It's not about having a good time: it is work in the truest sense, for the pettiest outcome imaginable. Don't do "a little" PUA. Don't do any PUA.

I said that friends did it, and when friends do it we call it bants. I said this to get you to realize that you most likely engage in the behaviour too.

The PUA uses it to game the system by having people they just met to accept behaviour from them that is usually only reserved for close friends or relatives. You described this as putting the cart before the horse, and I agree- more so that is the entire point, to skip through all the usual bullshit and to have people treat you like you have already been vetted for despite knowing them for a couple of minutes.
