I agree that this whole thread, while admittedly I have been following it myself, is a net negative for LW.
It’s my contention that (1) some people will be attracted to PUA tenets with a largely negative outlook regarding women, (2) some people will be attracted to PUA tenets with a largely positive outlook regarding women (3) some people will just organically figure it out without any significant use of literature and (4) people that enjoy reading/writing/debating about this will continue to do that and may or may not actually pursue relationships.
I don’t think lukeprog’s writing is going to substantially change anyone’s inclinations or abilities in this area because relationships and dating are something one learns by doing and becoming, not talking and thinking.
