He means that it is easy for discussion of pick-up / seduction to alienate potential female LW participants.

Aside from advocating the theft of the PUAs' group structure and ethic of practice, my article had nothing to do with seduction.

I thought Cosmos might be making a more complicated point, but fair enough.

When I wrote grandparent BTW I was not aware you were the author of the (very fine IMHO) article at the far end of the link. I thought you were just mystified as to what the sentence might mean.

Anyway, he removed the link to your article from his article, so I am going to assume that there is no need for me to say more.
