Quick Definition: A unique technique developed by Mystery that involves conveying active disinterest in a HB9+ target for the purpose of removing her bitch shield and lowering her value relative to the PUA’s perceived value.
Full Definition:
Neg theory is often misunderstood as a slight insult or backhanded compliment. In its precise field demonstration, a neg is delivered with a straight face, involving a neg hit that communicates one’s disinterest in the HB9′s beauty.
Negs are not necessary for picking up HB9s/10s. In some situations where the woman is put in a social position as highly desirable, such as a strip club, it may be necessary to use negs. For regular interactions, negs are usually only used if the HB is displaying some type of bitch shield or social mask that stops one from properly gaming her.
In general approximation:
SHB/HB10 – at most, 3 negs spaced out in between
HB8/9 – 1, max 2 negs
HB7 and below – negging a 7 may have the counter effect of ruining your game.
Be aware of the state and emotion of the HB, as HB7s can feel like HB10s in a high male ratio bar, while HB10s can be having a bad day/self esteem issues that lend her to respond negatively to negs.
