I was talking about dominating others, women wanting men who do that, and men not being so interested in women who do that.

You seem to be using "social dominance" as a synonym for social status. Yes, everyone likes social status. Men get it by dominating others. Women don't.

are you really willing to endorse unethical actions in pursuit of mating?

I don't see winning as unethical. I don't see giving women what they respond to as unethical. Some people like S&M. Is a little pain "unethical", if that's what someone responds to?

Roland made a new thread, so as not to derail this one with the PUA stuff.

See my comment there, where I make my position on when "dominant" becomes "asshole" more clear, and let me know if you still disagree.
