Ben: " Craig , wtf's up brah? A way to say no or express your opposition to an idea or proposition. You never mind someone making a pass at you when you want him or her to.
Time and again I've watched as people that I know are guilty of indiscretions with the opposite sex have held forth with great indignation against someone else who has just done the very same thing.
I try to tell people, "judge not lest ye be judged", because no one is innocent in dating. I don't like what pickup artists do, but in my experience they're only getting away with it because the women involved, on some level, want it to happen. I don't know how much to blame the scumbag guy for that.
As far as taking the advice of a pickup artist, I always try to advise people that if what you want is a romantic relationship, you shouldn't listen to someone who uses contempt of the opposite sex as his or her shield for pursuing the narrow goal of instant gratification. There is more going on than tactics when a man uses "the Neg" or a woman applies "the Rules"; there is a mindset about the opposite sex that doesn't readily admit respecting and admiring its members - qualities that are rather important to good relationships.

You can't sell something to someone who is completely not interested, and the same holds true for pick-up artistry. Just as a car salesman is selling cars, a pick-up artist is selling himself as a partner for a sexual encounter. If someone is truly not interested, it won't happen; the "game" is seeing whether or not it can be made to happen If pick-up artists want to use morally shallow techniques for getting sex, so be it.
They're not forcing themselves upon people, and quite frankly if people want to have casual sex, I think we've moved past the point as a culture where we feel like we have to moralize about it. Yeah, they might be assholes in person, and psychological manipulators, but they're salesmen selling to people who eventually buy.
I've found that these guys don't know what to do when you crash their game by interrupting them and telling the girl what's going on - explicitly, and then walk away. Ignoring doesn't work, since I've walked away, and their game is exposed so the "male neg" is shattered. Since most of these guys are, well, the kinds of guys who read books to pick up girls, they won't do anything about you cockblocking them. At worst, they'll just approach another girl, maybe making sure that you see them this second time.
I suppose it goes against guy-code to cockblock a guy, but I find the neg particularly offensive because of how disrespectful it is of women. I see it as a psychological abuse. Anyway it's kind of fun to blow up these guys' games, and then go join my girlfriend of two and a half years. I really can't understand the outrage about any of this.
