So... you don't have anything actually to suggest? I'm having a hard time figuring out how what I know of PUA could be applied to getting women to come to meetups. From what I've seen, it's pretty specialized to getting women to sleep with you.
Maybe you should start by trying to figure out actual helpful suggestions, and then we can worry about whether people will be offended by them.
(BTW: my older brother is depressed by his lack of success with women. I'd like to point him toward some helpful seduction resources but 1) I don't know how to do this without embarrassing him because, you know, it's dating advice from his younger sister and 2) I know a significant subset of that stuff is really kind of misogynist and nasty, and I'd rather not support that. Anyone have any brilliant ideas?)
Good advice, I think. It is hard to tell (without an example) whether any gimmicks that work to get women into bed with you also work to get women to meetups. I would guess that any convincing way of communicating the message "Come on! It will be fun!!" would help with both.
Call his attention to the stuff under the guise of soliciting a male opinion on whether it is offensively misogynist and nasty. Then let him make his own adult decisions as to whether he wants to make use of any of the information.
I agree.
