It’s often the man who gets blamed for bad sex.
He came too fast.
He didn’t make me come.
He forgot about foreplay.
He wouldn’t go down on me.
In and out, roll off. That was it.
He never kisses me during sex.
All he knew was one position — doggy style.
Women can be bad lays too, but when it’s the man’s fault there are two possible reasons for it. One, he was inexperienced. Women usually blame all bad sex on the inexperience and ineptitude of the man. This is a comforting thought for them, but the reality is that virginal incompetence accounts for very few poor sexual encounters. For every virgin clumsily popping his cherry there are 10,000 men with extensive sexual histories enjoying a romp in the sack. The second, and by far more frequent, reason for bad sex is that the woman wasn’t pretty enough to stimulate the man to answer the call of duty with enthusiasm. This reason — uninspired sex caused by female ugliness — is understandably disturbing for women to contemplate. There will never be a situation where one girl says to the other “He’s horrible in bed because you’re kinda gross-looking.”
If a woman wants an attentive lover she has to learn to settle so that whichever man she sleeps with is grateful to be there. Only this will guarantee lavish devotion to her sexual needs.
Betas who have managed the trick of getting laid regularly never veer off the path of least resistance. They are satisfied with subpar sex from girls who don’t push their limits. A man of discerning taste should make it a rule to pursue the choicest ass. He knows that phoning in unexciting sex with marginal girls will have a negative effect on his bedroom skills. His thrusting muscles will atrophy and his staying power will grow weak. His tepid loads will barely reach escape velocity. His knack for finding the location of the G spot will disappear. Soon, he will forget what it takes to drive a woman into ecstasy.
Then when the time comes to perform with a quality babe, he’ll stumble into his role unprepared and unsure of his abilities, like a declawed house cat abandoned to the wild.
Easy sex with mediocre girls also risks damaging a man’s self-confidence (though not as badly as involuntary celibacy would). He will begin to wonder if this is the best he can do. As an analogy, if you spend a few hours learning to play one simple song on a guitar and then play only that song over and over for months, you’ll slowly lose pride in your accomplishment.
Seducing a beautiful woman ensures you’ll give her maximum attention to detail in bed. The way to be a sex god is to have sex with women who motivate you to be a sex god. You’d be surprised at the depravity you’re capable of with the right girl. The hottest girl I ever slept with couldn’t stand up for an hour afterwards.
Keep yourself in fighting form. Let the betas hunt wounded prey. Alphas hunt the hunters.

so true. this is one of the things i’ve really learned from this blog. can you believe, it never even crossed my mind that hotter women = better sex. i always assumed, along with the great unwashed, that it was all about ‘chemistry’, mood etc. but it is not. it’s all about how hot the girl is.

Was discussing something along these lines with a friend yesterday who was complaining about hormone issues; excess fertility, PMS, dissatisfaction with birth control methods. The pill makes her bitchier and naturally puts her man under stress too. Typical complaints for high estrogen women, but of course they’re also the ones men want to fuck most often–hot bitches. Let’s face it; most hot women are also bitchy at times, hence the fear that many alpha’s AND betas feel in their attempts to bed one. But the rewards are so great. If you pick a plain or even homely woman your life will be peaceful but never passionate. I say choose to not only bed a beautiful woman, but fall in love with her too. The moments of heaven will be worth the inevitable hell. Just remember that sexy bitches still have soft hearts that can be broken and sometimes are even more sensitive than their sisters who may not experience the intense upside and downside of passion. And they can get jaded and hard hearted if they’ve been used too often & not taken seriously as long term intimate partners.
Anyway you look at it, inspiration is better than motivation. After experiencing 10’s on the hotness scale, you may decide that 8’s are better long term, unless you’re a 10 on the alpha scale.

I read on that Roosh guy’s blog that he hasn’t gone down on a woman in several years. Is that because he’s only been pulling unattractive girls that don’t inspire him to please them in bed? That’s probably not the best advertising for his book.
For my part, I always make the effort even if the woman isn’t spectacularly attractive. Here’s why: Because sometimes those women have spectacularly attractive friends. The better you are in bed, the more likely the woman you’re sleeping with will brag to her friends about it, which will pique their curiosity. And curiosity kills the pussy.

Neither of those premises stand up to much scrutiny.

I’ve concluded that hot women are best, and I should hold out for them, but I’ve also concluded that since those women have options, they have no reason to date me right now when they can find a better man, or some guy like Roissy. Simply put, hot girls don’t fuck nerds, so it doesn’t make sense to invest effort in trying to meet and attract them when I can spend that time and money doing things that are fun for me.
As for the porn stars that I like, they tend to be top heavy, but also ass heavy as well. The heavy makeup may reek of transvestites, but the heavy makeup, nails, high heels, and slutty clothing scream sex to me. It’s a woman who wants sex and displays herself in a way to get what she wants. For some reason, subconscously, I think that women really wanted sex, they’d act and dress that way, but there’s all sorts of conflicting issues both socially and self imposed that simply prevent that from happening in the real world.

Some men find the types of women in porn nasty and skanky. I honestly think it’s the imprinting at work, and the Pavlovian effect of porn consumption and conditioning.

Are you really serious about the ball sucking? Then might I suggest containing the balls first. With one hand palm down and thumb pointing down, slide your index and thumb fingers around to make a ring around the sack above the boys. (you can use the other hand to lift the balls away from the body if it make it easier to slide your fingers under.) If the boys are loose you can pull down a little with your hand which will tighten the ball skin and make it one nice package. It’s easy after that.

Funny posting, funny comments. Two quick things?
1) Back in my dating days I sometimes found that the hottest-looking chicks were the worst lays. They just weren’t into it much, while many “merely” good-looking or OK-looking girls often were.
Now, maybe the hot girls were looking at me and feeling disappointed or something, and that accounted for it. But I got another impression, which was that girls who look really-really ultra-fab … Well, that’s often the beginning and end of it. There they are, they look great, and maybe they’ll reward you by letting you have your way with them in bed. But damned if they were, y’know, going to be very lively about it.
Meanwhile, girls whose looks were more in the real-world spectrum often had enthusiasm, poetry, appreciation, emotions — all that fun stuff.
Anyway, if you enjoy jerking off over an ideal image, then maybe the out-of-it beautiful girl is your thing, though I was always tempted to say, “Y’know, if all I want is a beautiful girl-image, I could do better with my magazine collection.” But if you want to enjoy a little partner-dancing, if you know what I mean, then what you want is a girl who’s pretty enough and who’s genuinely into fucking.
Sad to say, but my impression was that, while there are tons of people who love feeling hot and desirable, and getting off is almost always fun, the number of people who genuinely love fucking (in other words, really sharing a surfboard with another person) is really rather small.
2) As for the sex being “bad” or something … It sounds like y’all might still be stuck in an old trap, namely letting the girl decide whether the sex is bad or good, according to whether she got off or not.
Sigh: guys, don’t let this happen. The sex is “good” if you had a nice time and “bad” if you didn’t. As for whether she had a nice time — well, she’s more responsible for that than you are.
If she wasn’t in the right mood, if she’s having trouble going for the gusto — I mean, no reason not to be sympathetic, helpful, patient, appreciative, etc. But if you’re all those things and she’s still having trouble, it ain’t your fault. What on earth is she doing, going through with a fuck if she isn’t into it? She owes you an apology, not vice versa.
Great old joke: “How do you make a woman come?” Answer: “Who cares?”
I mean, it isn’t totally true, of course. But you’ve gotta have a bit of that attitude in the back of your mind. Whether or not she comes is up to her, not to you. Being appreciative of her, and mindful of your own mood and your own needs, and alert to the moment — you can’t (and no one can, really) do more than that. So don’t even try.

Another reason to pursue the best you can is that once that becomes known — maybe you walk around together on a date, or word-of-mouth spreads, etc. — the “safety school” ones will automatically take a liking to you. Whereas if you pursue the latter, the mega-hotties won’t start paying you attention — or if they do, they’ll just think you’re a wimp who lacks ambition.
Side comment: another reason to hit on tall girls. Whether they dig you or not, it’s enough that they respond positively, laugh, giggle, etc. Just broadcasting the signal to anyone who can see (and anyone she can talk to about the incident) that you’ve got enough balls and self-comfort / confidence to hit on tall girls is worth it. The ones closer to your height will notice this, and you’ll be bumped up the scale in their eyes.
Obviously doesn’t work if the tall girl would look bored, uncomfortable, etc., if you hit on her.

42: Basically a 10 should be not only hot looking but also amazing in bed, else she should be given a lower rating. It’s like if the trailer is great, but the movie sucks, you’re obviously not going to recommend it. Keep in mind also the old saying “familiarity breeds contempt” and even the most beautiful woman in the world can turn ugly in your eyes, if that’s all she has going for her.
