maybe we can start a more respectful version of the PUA movement. something that drives change from the internal state of a man toward the external, rather than the other way around, which seems to be how PUA works.

urB4N:

I think this is an issue with internet communication, not people having different viewpoints. People on the web--probably myself included--tend to read and write selectively, and the group behavior is different because of the anonymity. Not to beat a dead horse, but I've mentioned a much better solution three times on this board and once on the PUA site, including my last two messages to you, and hardly anyone has acknowledged this. However, I realize it's the internet.

So tell me if this works for you...I'll try to pump out that bigWOWO piece in the next few weeks, but I'd like you to call in for a podcast, sometime in early December. We can arrange it on your schedule. I appreciate your feedback, and I think that you'll give me an honest assessment, unlike some of the less scrupulous people I've spoken to. You don't have to give your full name or anything; I just think that using real live voices is the best way to push a message and to also find a solution, if there is one. If this works for you, please send me a pm.

If anyone wants to join us, please let me know.

Edited to add: I just did a podcast yesterday and will post it later today. I probably want to look into other technologies to see if I can improve the sound quality over phone, but either way we can get it done. I think almost everyone on the 44s wants to find a solution.

We should definitely do a podcast (or some other project) on the gender divide in the Asian American community in the future. I don't think there would be so much finger pointing on the PUA issue or related hot botton topics involving sexuality, if this division had been fully reckoned with and healed. In terms of sex and relationships, it's kind of the 1000 lb gorilla in the living room.

This is my alternative to PUA. Watch and learn. Watch and motherfucking learn from Katt Williams:

Yes, let's definitely do it. I've heard some podcasts on the subject, but most have been by the uber-politically correct set that talk for hours but say nothing. If we can add even a bit of what has been said here, I think we'll have a pretty good talk.

Sounds good, urB4N.

I'm actually looking for new technology--my current setup let me down during my last podcast--so I probably need time to look at other options anyway. Thanks for stepping up to the plate. I'll talk to THX and will pm you. We'll definitely put this together.

And I'm totally in agreement with you--let's think of ways that we can solve this issue.

Talk to you soon!

As I posted before, I'm still waiting for the Bigwowo.com to post a rebuttal to my argument. If you're going to criticize him and his methods, at least offer an alternative.

No one is willing to do so. All they're looking to do is say "you're wrong" and proceed to mock the individual when it should be substituted with "...and here's how to fix it."
Okay, it's up: The Post-PUA Era of the Asian American Blogosphere.

We'll be doing the podcast next week (half recorded, half not). So far, it looks like we'll have at least six participants. Shoot me an e-mail, and I'll let you know the details. Thanks again for participating!
