@Josef, unfortunately, men still do believe they deserve pussy, especially if they've invested money into the girl via the alcohol they've bought her. However, casual sex isn't a transaction, and the girl doesn't owe you anything. If she is decent, she might refuse the drink. Me being indecent, I will happily drink on someone else's dime, but if they think that entitles them to sex, God help them. If I ever decide to prostitute myself, a couple of $12 watered-down cocktails is not going to be quite enough to buy me.

And better than thy stroke; why swellest thou then?Plenty of people like arrogant fuckers, but that's beside the point.
Believing you deserve things is healthy because it both stems from and reinforces a positive self image. Acting like you deserve things is healthy because people can't see your beliefs and feelings, but generally enjoy the company of people with positive self images.
A positive self image with no actual achievement behind it seems to be like an amazing car with no engine. Damn fine to look at, no damn use to anyone.
I mean why not DO something that you feel is valuable rather than simply "believing" that you have value?

Sex doesn't seem to me to be something that everyone has a right to. I believe that everyone should have the right to food, clean water, freedom of speech, education, all that stuff.
But sex? No, that's something that people choose to give to you. If you don't do anything to earn it, then why should people be obliged to give it to you?
Be not afraid...I suspect that if having a positive self image makes a person happy, that person won't really give a rat's ass about whether or not you find them "useful."
The two things are in no way mutually exclusive, and sometimes believing you have value is a necessary stepping stone for doing the things you consider valuable.

As I was trying to point out earlier, I doubt anyone "deserves" anything. Which is why I am continously flumouxed by techniques that require it to be front and centre of your mindset. I am sorry but what qualifiers do you have for "deserving" anything?
This is specifically aimed at Pu A, one of the more minor things I have seen in a great deal of Pu A blogs is the belief that the people who buy into the game "deserve" success. Why is that? And does anyone think that it works?
