Boy Band Principle

Quick Definition: The tendency for women to be attracted to men that other women display attraction for.

The boy band principle is basically another way of looking at pre-selection, using the popularity of boy bands as an example. Looking at boy bands, once the popularity level of a band reaches a certain tipping point, their popularity explodes because at that point, women begin to like the boy band irrespective of whether they like their music or not, but simply because other women like them.

Similarly, in pickup, if a PUA is able to demonstrate that other women are attracted to him (through the use of pivots, stories, or subcommunication), other women will start to find him more attractive, simply because he is liked by other women. The same principle has been observed in many species of animals as well.

Evolutionarily speaking, it is believed that pre-selection is an unconscious shortcut that women take when evaluating the attractiveness of a man, because it is generally an honest indicator that is difficult to fake. PUAs would do well to keep the boy band principle in mind, and take advantage of social proof and other social cues that people use to make snap judgements about unfamiliar people.
