Downvoted due to trying to shame people into obedience to your norms and complete misunderstanding of what PUA is about.

And you aren't? Shame, obedience and norms are value-loaded words and you used them with intent to provoke emotion.

Edit: the above is tu quoque, I know. I'm expressing my moral preference for overt judgment over emotional leading. The latter feels like a volitional back-door. Silly me for doing what I was decrying!
