The story isn’t about Frank regarding women as things on the way to implementing his plan, it’s about Frank regarding various people, men and women alike, as means to the end of saving his brother.
It’s also a story. Frank is imaginary, and his situation is uncommon enough that others could not easily follow his example. If Frank were not imaginary, and he turned up and told us all the story of how he saved his brother, and offered advice on how other people can trick cabbies and females for fun and profit, I’d probably feel some actual qualms about his treatment of the cabdriver and the various women he attempted to bring home in service of his plan.
PUA is not something we need to be talking about here, and if it’s giving one entire gender the wrong vibes on this website, I say the hell with it.

Thank you.
