THE SINGLE FILES
By Ana Santos

The relationship columnist meets the Pick-up Artist 

“X” is twenty something pick up artist, who has made it his mission to teach other men how to approach and meet women he actually wants to meet; as opposed to those he just meets by chance. With tools and techniques that he has developed over the years of what he calls “fieldwork,” X has and other veteran pick-up-artists like him established X Arts, a series of boot camps for men who want to learn the fine art of seduction.

For this week’s column, X takes out his archives of field reports and shares some of his teachings.

X Arts is short for “Attraxion Arts”, which is a wordplay on “The Art of Attraction”

We are a group of PUA’s (short for Pick Up Artists), who specialize in teaching men how to be more confident and effectively attract and seduce the opposite sex.

The Philippine PUA Society really started out back in early 2006 with me, as one of the pioneers. Back then, we called ourselves the “Manila Lair.”

Having built quite a reputation in the “Lair” for successfully applying seduction principles, I grew a following. Other Lair members started consulting me, and I obliged myself to teach them. Others then started paying for the lessons and boot camps. Soon, many urged me to organize and formally set up “PUA boot camps.”

So in January 2008, I founded the “Attraxion Arts School”, or “X Arts”. We held our very first formal and official seminar in a small function room in Ateneo De Manila University in Quezon City, and since then, we’ve held numerous 1-on-1 in-field boot camps and formal seminars.

I thought of establishing X Arts because I wanted to teach guys and give them the tools and resources necessary for them to succeed in their love life.

I want them to get “what they want”, not just “want what they get.” There’s a difference . . . you see, a PUA should even deserve more credit than the average person who just “accidentally stumbles into his wife.” It is the PUA who relentlessly approaches a lot of people, socializes and actively makes an effort to find the right woman for him.

I want men to have more options in his lovelife so that he would not have to settle for someone less than what he deserves.

I also want men to know how to treat women. We teach them to have values and treat women as they would treat their mother . . . with respect. One reason why there are a lot of sexual crimes like rape, acts of lasciviousness, or sexual harassment committed, is because men resort to force and aggression in channeling their bottled up sexual energy to get what they want. By running X Arts, I believe we make society a better and more peaceful place to live due to the decrease in sexual crimes.

I also want them to be successful not only in their love lives, but also life, in general. One of the traits we teach in order to become more attractive is being able to communicate effectively. This is a skill that is not only applicable in courtship or the art of attraction, but also in all aspects of life like in your career and social life when communication with your circle of friends.

I’ve witnessed several persons transform and became a better person because of the Pick Up Arts. I, myself, was transformed because of this. Before, even though I fared well in the looks department, I never succeeded with the opposite sex simply because I didn’t know the art of attraction. Pick Up Arts not only helped me in succeeding with the opposite sex, it also helped improve my life overall.

My clientele generally consists of two groups: 1.) those who are already skilled in the art of attraction and thus know how to attract a woman, but just wants to elevate his skills to a higher level; and 2.) those who don’t know anything or have little knowledge about attracting women properly.

The latter group usually relies on luck or “chance” in meeting, attracting, or getting the girl . . . some of them may become successful at times, but it’s not consistent.

I’d say that one major obstacle for them in getting the girl is getting them to “unlearn” all the negative mindset and habits in their attitude which are not attractive to women. We call these negative mindset and habits “limiting beliefs” because they are just beliefs, not the truth or fact, that limit their ability to achieve or maximize their potential as an attractive person.

In our boot camps, we remove the negative mindset that social programming and conditioning has input into their minds. We replace these limiting beliefs with positive, unlimiting beliefs.

When you think about it, it’s all fairly simple.

Just as animals have their own mating rituals, peacocks have their colorful appearance, fish have their mating dances and birds have their songs, we humans have our own courtship ritual. The other term or “slang” for this ritual is “The Game,” so technically, everyone out to find a mate is a “Player”

Actually, women play games all the time, but it’s not intentional nor malicious, nor devious— they’re just playing their part in that courtship ritual.

We, men need to play the game too, and it does not necessarily involve trickery, manipulation, nor breaking a woman’s heart. It just means playing our role in the courtship ritual with our techniques and knowledge of the rules.

As in any social situation, the bottom line is, if one is fair in his dealings with people, he will be beyond reproach . . . and hopefully, also successful in getting his girl.

"No bullshit, no hype, just pure and real game."

Five principles I live by
1. Seeing is believing
2. Document what you see
3. Read between the lines
4. Do your own homework
5. Focus on the process, not the outcome

As far as this term "PUA" goes, everyone is free to use it as they see fit. If you want to define "PUA" as oobbligidishbligidish, then go for it. If you want to appeal to the banalized use of the term here in Manila--which ranges anywhere from marketer, keyboard Jockey, unsolicited advice givers, or what have you--then do so. My business in the game, Manila is simple: get to a natural level in a place where I a know nobody, so that when I return to SF in October, I can annhiliate targets to devastating effect without being picked out in the crowd as another dorky/creepy wannabe PUA. In case you can't read between the lines, I'll be explicit: in San Francisco, only dorks go into this silly pick up artist business. Frankly it's construed as low value.

I remember one time I was with two HB9 friends of mine and several indie rocker naturals in Pop Scene (closest thing to embassy there). Weird yuppy silicon valley asian dude comes in and goes in overly cocky way "ohhh, your kinda cute for a club girl, but I'm not into that, what else do you do for fun... and don't say clubbing." I later learn that this dude was trying to "neg" my friend. Then he goes... "yeah, I love life, I just graduated from Stanford MBA...blah blah". I later learn that this is a "DHV." My HB9 friend keeps looking at me with this 'get me the fuck out of here' gaze and somehow, PUA wannabe dude notices, goes up to me, and says "that's a funky mustache you got, you remind me of zorro... harharhar." I don't really react and with a smirk, I just say "yeah, it's a blessing." The guy was kinda startled and he rejoins with "so, are you saying that I'm not blessed because I don't have a beard." I'm like "hey, chicks dig it, [now smirking] some are blessed, some are not [with sly smile]. [and I'm just basing this from my experience, when I was a student in the Bay Area, as the liberal bastion of California, chicks love beards]." Well, he dude totally gets paralyzed and is at lost for words. I later learn that what he was really trying to do was "amog" me. How pathetic.

So I'm chilling there with this dancing monkey wannabe PUA (WPUA hereafter) and two HB9 friends, when my natural friends come in with more HBs in their entourage. Of course I introduce my friends. Now all of a sudden, this WPUA dude , because he was already locked in, jumps in and introduces himself to everyone, and goes back to using the same funny tactics (neg --> dhv --> amog). Poor dude, nobody was buying his act [note: this is America, you don't get blown out here rudely and big time ala decades]. After a while, everyone was getting tired, so I bounce to smoke a cig outside. My friend still being barraged by WPUA, gives me that intense "help me" look. I say, "hey Jenny, I'm getting a cig, let's bounce outside." The girl couldn't be happier and proceeds to tell me as we're walking outside how creepy that dude was. This in essence, was PUAdom San Francisco for you, and all before the community exploded in the scene.

Clearly this guy aint a PUA right? Clearly he aint a natural? But the funny thing is that X did something that could quite possible be subsumed under the neg->dhv->amog process (in a superfriendly, giving, and positive way), yet reached radically different results. Everyone, and I mean everyone bought his act. Why? Because X wasn't acting. He wasn't acting like a manipulative prick out to get "laid that night". The guy wasn't thinking "okay, I'll try to get laid, and if I don't I'll write some off the wall lay report, so fellow community dudes can think I'm cool... yes I will be a hero of the community and make big bucks in my next bootcamp." Dude, in all honesty, X was just out there being his natural awesome self having a smashing good time, teasing and playing around with all the beautiful women. The guy was interacting and engaged from a place of abundance and plenitude. So, if anything came out of it, it's just icing on the cake. It's not a privilege for him, but a privilege for the girl to get pulled by him. 'Nuff said.
