Another one catching charges.

PUA model has some serious shortcomings to it.

It makes me think to Denmo, he was Canadian too.

The moment you call yourself a PUA, it is all over.

I talked to someone who knows him. Justin claims he has no idea who the girl is and she’s working with some politician who is targeting nightclubs and using him as a scapegoat.

There are core elements of PUA model that are valuable, but there is SO much bullshit and immorality. I've always framed it more as a journey to improve social skills and confidence, if I happen to get laid along the way then that's great. I think that's a much healthier way to view it than fully identifying with the pickup model or becoming a 'pickup artist'

I agree. Mark Manson (Models) is a healthy form of PUA, Alan Roger Currie (Mode One).
