In which I do a video version of my “What is Game” article

The question remains, however: What IS the essence of game, and what is it, exactly, that is improved when you improve your “game”? In other words, why is it that SOME men, some of whom are famously unattractive (such as Henry Kissinger, Grigori Rasputin, or, yes, Giacomo Casanova himself) were able to seduce legions of beautiful women, and yet others who were somewhat closer to being conventionally attractive (such as Mark Zuckerberg or Jeb Bush) completely failed in the mating game…

Using the four examples of “ugly studs” I always like to use (Pepys, Kissinger, Casanova, Rasputin), there’s not a lot that they have in common: Pepys a middle class civil servant who repeatedly cheated on his wife (and got into fights with her about it shortly followed by wonderful make-up sex), Rasputin a slovenly peasant lay preacher that managed to talk his way into high society, Kissinger a somewhat callous and Machiavellian diplomat whose record is…divisive (to put it mildly), and Casanova a dandy who was notable for bathing daily (in the 1700s!) and in many cases treating women much nicer than other men at the time—in a few notable cases in his memoirs, getting up early to cook them breakfast.

So clearly, having “Game” is not a mere application of being an asshole, or having the “Dark Triad”, or cultivating a slovenliness about yourself to entice society women to “slum it”. While those things CAN be used to attract women, they’re clearly not a necessity—in other words, you can be a conventionally nice person and still get women…

All that and more, in my new video.
