Attraction triggers have been studied by every guru and pickup school in their quest to understand the origins of what we humans refer to as “attraction”.
“Female attraction” is associated by most schools of thought to originate from “value”. That is, the display of social value of a man within our society.
In MM:
Attraction triggers, as defined in MM is the hard-wired responses in a female’s brain through millions of years of sexual selection and evolution to a man of high S&R value. Different women may feel varying degrees of attraction; some may even have very unique things they like about a man. However, the following triggers are consistently proven in field to be attraction triggers:
On an external level:
- Physical looks and style, combining to form an avatar
- Calm, stable demeanor that subcommunicate higher value (body language, eye contact, movement)
- Subtle sense of entitlement in life, that is conveyed in body language, eye contact, and many other ways
- Social alliances and social proof at venue (situational confidence)
On a thematic and characteristic level:
- Pre-selection – either having real women around you at all times or conveying that the PUA has women in his life via stories.
- Leader of men – the ability to lead other men and groups to achieve a goal.
- Protector of loved ones – the ability to protect those he cares for, which is also related to how one controls and attains power.
- Ability and willingness to emote – to feel the right emotions of protection correctly given tough situations.
- Having a purpose greater than oneself – being passionate about a cause or entity that is great than the individual.
The process of becoming a PUA, according to the MM school of thought, is to learn how to develop and embody these attractive characteristics.
In other schools of thought:
- Most causes of attraction from other schools all have origins in evolutionary biology.
- Not included in the mystery method list are many other triggers for creating attraction in women
- These can include things like having a grounded personality, having options in life, being outcome independent, living in freedom, or as Zan would say, “the way we MOVE through life”
- Variances in attraction depending on calibration to the exact girl (i.e. not all girls will find every attraction trigger equally appealing)
- Most importantly, closing a woman requires more than attraction. A minimum level of comfort and trust needs to be established (connection triggers) before a full close can happen with most women.
- Attraction triggers for men are centered around the woman’s looks. Most notably youth and beauty. However, for high value men, the abundance of physically attractive women prompts him to look for other things such as personality, promiscuity, ambition, tendency for nurture, among other things that women need to develop in addition to their physical beauty.
