An attractive female pfp/name gets ten times as many profile clicks as a male one for the exact same posts. This leads to exponentially higher follower growth. I A/B tested it years ago. So yes, women have a simply massive social advantage online due to basic human dynamics.

I will prove it to you here. Below are two different links to my novel. One of them gets 100x the clicks of the other one. Can you guess which?

WHY THERE'S A “GOLDILOCKS” LEVEL OF MODESTY

Everything looks too revealing to puritans. And for today's anti-puritans, there's no such thing as too revealing. In this thread I'll explain why there's a perfect range of modesty for every context. Too little is as bad as too much. There are three reasonable justifications for modest clothing standards. I'll go through them one by one.

1. Controlling and stabilizing relationships
2. Keeping sex out of places where it doesn't belong
3. Making the reveal as exciting as possible

The latest generation of breast implants, just approved by the FDA, has cut the rate of the most common complication by 90% and improved realism. Augmentation boosts attractiveness by around a point, so getting one is pretty much a no-brainer now. Customer satisfaction is 95%. You can read my guide here. At some point I will have to update it with new before-and-after photos but the ones I've shown are already quite compelling.

Abundant choker varieties in a recent Turkish drama. Will Occidental girls ever catch on, or is that asking too much?
Thai dramas have figured it out too...

Recently exchanged emails with a woman who wrote me that DISPELLING BEAUTY LIES had changed her life and improved her relationship, but that she can't share it with other women because they would just mob and bully her. I strongly encourage my male readers to step up and... ...share my writing wherever they can. I don't have time to promote it anymore, and women are afraid to, so the task now falls to you. There are all sorts of forces stopping the truth about beauty and seduction from getting out, but the sooner it does, the sooner we all win.

THE DISPELLING BEAUTY LIES PODCAST

The long-awaited Dispelling Beauty Lies Podcast is now available. You can begin by listening to Episode 1, or to an exclusive bonus introduction and interview with yours truly. Links in the thread below. Bonus Introduction and Interview with J. Sanilac

I've never understood why anyone's interested in my identity. Judging my writing on attractiveness by my supposed identity is particularly stupid. I've said many times that it's not about me. My fiction isn't autobiographical either. The only autobiographical pieces I've... ...published are my "30 Favorite Images" page and my instrumental classical music. I'll link those below.

DO SLUTS WIN AFTER ALL?

Why do former sex workers sometimes end up marrying desirable men? Doesn't this contradict what men supposedly want in a wife? My seduction quiz tells us the solution to the apparent paradox. I'll explain in this short thread. Even after you subtract MANY points for vice, women who've fully mastered the arts of seduction outscore women who make the usual seduction mistakes that 98% of women make. And outscore them by a huge margin.

THE SLOW SUICIDE OF CLOTHING

For over a hundred and fifty years clothing has been gradually becoming more casual, more revealing, and skimpier. Will it stop? Can it stop before it disappears entirely? In this thread I'll look back and make some future projections.
Everyone knows the basic history. 19th century fashions were extremely modest. In fact, they were modest even by the standards of prior history.

YES, SEX APPEAL MATTERS

When it comes to sex appeal our society wants to have it two ways. On one hand, sex appeal completely dominates our entertainment. ESPECIALLY if you include the "entertainment" that people surreptitiously spend their time watching. On the other hand... On the other hand, people are afraid of sex appeal in their everyday lives.

The result is something I call puritanical voyeurism: ubiquitous sexuality in entertainment that coexists with unrecognized prudishness in real-life.

Simplistic attempts to apply evolutionary theory all over the place leads to a lot of bad conclusions. One is that the goal of existence is to maximize our offspring or evolutionary advantage. Not the case. Darwinism is what GAVE US our goals, but it isn't itself our goal. Another is that darwinism will fix social problems that are happening on a much shorter time scale than evolution. If the birthrate truly collapsed, darwinism would not stop malthusian industrialism or worse, because the time scales are wrong.

In my last thread I wrote that we're tempted to lazily identify mere signals of beauty rather than looking for beauty itself. But what does this mean in practice? What's the difference between signals of beauty and real beauty?

In this thread I'll give some examples and...
...explain why this is an especially big and relevant problem today.

I've come to understand the pursuit of true beauty, whether in women or in the arts, as a battle against signals. The laziness of the human mind is such that we're always tempted to judge things by superficial signals instead of really looking. In other words, we... ...look for signals of beauty instead of looking for beauty itself, because the former is easier and requires less effort.

We can understand attractiveness scientifically and use that understanding to make the world a happier place. The problem is, almost nobody wants to do it. Trends and random opinions that point in the wrong direction have more psychological power over the public than the truth. For the last few years I've been amazed to watch, over and over, as women were swayed by random opinions and insults while completely ignoring hard data about what men find attractive. A confidently assertive word from an online rando holds more weight than perfect logic.

A highly parsimonious explanation for 21st century fashion is that it's an attempt to find the ugliest, most boring colors for everything. Gray for houses, brown for bikinis and leggings, beige for underwear, black and white for everything else. However... However, an equally parsimonious explanation for 21st century fashion is that everyone's just retarded.

Too simplistic? Perhaps. But this answer gives rise to a far more challenging and interesting question:

THE FUTURE OF BEAUTY

In this thread I'm going to share my ideas on how feminine beauty will change in the decades to come. 1. Weight-loss drugs will end the obesity epidemic sometime in the mid 21st century, perhaps around 2040. Paradoxically, this will INCREASE the bodyfat level that's socially recognized as ideal.

Global change in *per-capita* GDP is driven by the *absolute* numbers of elite human capital. However, this doesn't necessarily apply on a local level. So, Norway can have good pcGDP growth at a low population, but if the rest of the world disappeared, its pcGDP would decline. I'm not pointing to economies of scale here, although those are relevant, but rather to the innovation rate. Evolution and innovation both accelerate with increasing absolute population; for innovation it's the absolute elite-human-capital numbers that matter.

Money doesn't buy real longevity, but we're entering an era where it DOES buy real beauty. Are you prepared? What's the most cost-effective cosmetic surgery procedure if you want to increase your attractiveness? You can find the answer in DISPELLING BEAUTY LIES. Link below.

WHAT HAPPENS WHEN MONEY BUYS BEAUTY?

There have been rich uglies throughout history. Beauty and wealth aren't well correlated, and in the past it was impossible to buy beauty. But that's changing. In this thread I'll discuss the brave new world ahead of uss. This is the only beauty topic I haven't addressed before that I consider important. But I've been thinking about it quite a while. The last few years have seen some significant improvements to cosmetic surgery. Particularly high-end facelifts.

BEAUTY ARBITRAGE AND STANDOUT TRAITS

Some women feel uncomfortable about advertising their standout traits and exclusively attracting suitors who prize them. In this thread I'll explain why your BEST suitors will actually come from this group. To start off I'm going to tell a cute little fable. What happens when you move from a town where ALL the women have purple eyes to a town where they're RARE?
