I usually just wear my money suit around town Which part of town? The Red Light District? Anywhere else and you'll likely to get robbed--with no sinful night of debauchery to show for it. Anywho. Picking up girls using nothing more than sheer skill is what guys have to do when they can't afford a money suit. That makes you a fish in a sea of women. You don't need any tips. Just swim. Swim as deep as you can--past our baited hooks--and never look up.

^No there are private functions for money suit wearers, where there are security guards and convenient personal glass display cabinets for anyone who wants to bring their trophies/medals/treasured bling. Dont worry, the girls are patted down and their purses checked before they are allowed in.

(Don't forget - no cell phones/cameras allowed! mustn't have any evidence of the debauchery)

My friend has an interesting technique that involves walking up to a couple of bored looking women and saying "My friend is trying to convince me to go to Cuba, but I'm a little worried about the US government. What do you think?" That line has had about a 50% success rate in San Francisco dive bars. I think you might have to tailor the conversation-starter to the particular crowd (if in Southern California, I like "If you were an ice-cream, what flavor would you be"), but I like the idea of beginning with a question (to engage in conversation and to not come off too aggresive) designed to provoke and that also references you being interesting, adventurous, and having a friend at the bar (slightly less creepy).
Personally, though, I've never been very good at picking up women with lines. Usually it takes a lot of eye contact, liquid courage, and some of my patented dance moves before I engage in conversation (a couple of times I managed to avoid that stage entirely). I just have nothing when it comes to opening lines. And the guitar case thing has never worked for me. Maybe I could have used a money suit back in the day...

^for some reason i find questions-oriented-pick up lines the worst. if someone comes up to me and asks me a question i ll be wondering "i don t know you, you don t know me, why are you asking me what type of ice cream flavour i d rather be, or about cuba-your friend-us gov-randomness?"
if the pick up line is lame (like: "do you believe in love at first sight, or should i walk by again?" or "i m romeo, and you must be juliet"), at least you ll get the girl to laugh and upon admitting it was lame you can start a conversation. but a question? i know that no matter what the person looks like i ll think "weirdo" and walk away.

^'i know that no matter what the person looks like i ll think "weirdo" and walk away. " Fair enough. I said he had a 50% success rate with it. I think about half the girls in the world like a confident, aggressive approach and appreciate a direct or humorous pickup line. The other half are turned off by that and are happier to initiate contact with a random conversation about an interesting topic (that should also have humorous potential). That approach also works better for less confident guys with a fear of rejection, because (in my opinion) I'd rather have a girl walk away from me thinking "weirdo" because I asked her a simple question than walk away after I put it all on the line. But like I said, I've never practiced either approach in a bar setting as I always waited for a girl to show interest first. That's actually how it worked with my wife too

Nothing works better than forcing your tongue down a girls throat, from what was supposed to be a polite goodby cheek to cheek kiss. followed by him: "will i see you later tonight"... her: "if you're lucky"... him: "no,no.. if YOU'RE lucky" *run*

i got lost in the metaphor - what exactly to you mean by that *holds notepad+pen ready beside Iver* If you're going to be that attentive, it'll be a shame to let that pen and paper go to waste. I'll likely have to share something. This strategy is untested but I'll offer up the blueprint anyway. A scenario arose where I was walking home from a bar with a female friend of mine. In this part of the district, there is a sex shop located in between the bars. We were passing by the sex shop when sudden I was smitten by bold spark of inspiration. Would she ever go into that sex shop with me? How should I go about asking? I could turn to her and say, "I've never been in store like this before. I'm too afraid to go in alone. Maybe if we pretend to be a couple and go in, it would be less embarrassing". [All the while, sweeping my arm under hers in anticipation.] Or I could say, "My friend is working the shift tonight. We should go in and say hi to HER". [Grabbing her hand and darting to the door like child to a candy shop.] At any rate, she is probably just as curious as I am. After all, women are constantly calling men perverts for going into such places. Over time it has probably become a burden on their own curiosity. This was my chance and her chance as well. But my mother--who is not yet up in heaven--would look down on me and say, " Don't ask a woman to do such indecent things". [sigh] Indeed I did not ask her to do such a thing and retained my purity. If there was a sexual tension between us, such a thing would've startled her. But the more I think about it, the more I realize that she was the perfect woman to ask. The other women I knew would've rejected the idea, told everyone else about, and exaggerated the story by including some nonsense about forced prostitution. But her, she would've laughed it off or suppressed the memory. And whether she said yes or no, we could have blamed it on my alcohol. That tall cute half Korean was my only chance to try it out. Hah. But what if she asked me first. Maybe she wanted to ask the same thing, but had the same string of reservations. Maybe her father--who is not yet up in heaven--looked down on her thoughts and interjected, " A man will not marry a women who asks such indecent things". That wouldn't do. But if we went to that bar enough times and walked by the sex shop enough times and we were drunk enough, the chance of us entering the sex shop would be be certain. Mother--who is not up in heaven--thank you. You're probably asking yourself right now, "What the hella kinda of base am I gonna be on getting a woman into a sex shop ?". Think of it as a home run at an exhibition game. You're getting ready for the pros. Think of a woman's sexuality. Getting them to drop their sexual defenses is enough to validate a victory. No mess, (no ambivalence), no cleanup, nothing broken--unless you're clumsy in the store. That I can't help you with.

Sorry to break it to you dude, but getting a girl to go into a sex shop with you is not REALLY the best way to get into her pants.
I'll tell you what works.. A bed/couch, a movie and lots of cuddling or making out. That leads to sex most of the time, or at least there is a waaayyy higher chance of it happening.

Both strategies together would probably work well. Setting the mood, providing a comfortable/secure situation, and *slight* lowering of the inhibitions -- maybe a glass of wine... ...or champagne: video.yahoo.com/watch/148995/951695

They're being stripped psychologically. It's a sexual challenge beyond the crude physicality of cuddling, aphrodisiacs, and intercourse. Men are always interested in challenges. The spirit is always wild beyond our satiable appetites. That's why women can never keep the men they want. [That, and the whole blueprint was intended to be a joke. ]

^Umm well then how is that a tip to pick up a girl? If i went into a sex shop with a guy, i'd go in, have a laugh and go out. I really doubt how much that can psychologically strip a girl.. We know about sex and wee wee's, we dont have to go into a sex shop to be reminded of that . I guess it could break a barrier, like oh yes we've both acknowledged sex.. but how is that exciting? And dont you mean, its the sexual challenge before the crude physicality of cuddling and intercourse? Because in the end, thats what its all about despite all this zen/spiritual appetite stuff.. all of those emotions and desires stem directly from the carnal human desire to reproduce. Sure, you dont have to bonk everyone you meet, but you cant pretend that psychological desires arent actually physical desires. Because they are. Most of the time . Perhaps i just have cous cous for brains and dont understand.. Maybe try a different examples? Afterall you do have a captive audience ready with notebooks and pens awaiting your reply

You are so sneaky! Every time i think i'm alone and free to edit my posts at my own pace, up you pop!
And yes, i'd agree.. if you had to chose only one for the rest of your life, which one wuold you chose? Cuddling or sex?
