SELECTIVE BREEDING and the Birth of PHILOSOPHY, by Costin Alamariu - Preface

This is a thesis about Nietzsche. My obsession with Nietzsche started when I was sixteen years old. Inspired by Nietzsche, I went back to Homer and to Plato and read them through Nietzsche’s provocations. These provocations also inspired me to learn Greek. I would guess I thought through the ideas behind this thesis around the time I was twenty-two years old. The fundamental problem that motivated me then as it does now: what is life as opposed to death, and what is life as full of life, as oppo...

Consecrated Virginity - Pope Pius XII

SACRA VIRGINITAS, 1954. Turn our mind and heart in a special manner to those men and women, who, vowed to the service of God, are suffering bitter and terrible persecutions in not a few countries. Let them imitate the example of the consecrated virgins of the early Church who with courageous and indomitable hearts suffered martyrdom for the sake of their virginity.

Directives for Women - Pope Pius XII

to Congress of International UnionCatholic Women's Leagues, Sept 11 1947. Catholic women and girls, formerly you would have thought only of worthily playing your sacred and fruitful role in the management of a wholesome, strong, and radiant home; or you would have consecrated your life to the service of God in the composure of the cloister or in apostolic and charitable works. Beautiful ideals, where woman, in her proper place, and from her proper place, exercises quietly a powerful influence. B...

Women's Duties - Pope Pius XII

QUESTA GRANDE VOSTRA ADUNATA, 1945. Ask yourself: How is that God-given dignity of womankind to be maintained and enhanced, especially today and in the circumstances in which Providence has placed us?

To Mothers - Pope Pius XII

DAVANTI A QUESTA, 1941. Christian mothers and beloved daughters, of your incomparable mission -- fraught in these days with so many difficulties and obstacles -- We have been able only briefly to describe the glories. What a majestic figure is that of the mother in the home as she fulfills her destiny at the cradle side, the nurse and teacher of her little ones! Hers is truly a task full of labor, and We should be tempted to deem her unequal to it were it not for the grace of God which is ever a...

Chaste Wedlock - Pope Pius XI

CASTI CONNUBII, 1930. As Saint Augustine admirably deduces from the words of the holy Apostle Saint Paul to Timothy when he says: "The Apostle himself is therefore a witness that marriage is for the sake of generation: 'I wish' he says 'young girls to marry.' And as if someone said to him, 'Why?' he immediately adds: 'To bear children, to be mothers of families'.

Secret to Christian Marriage - Pope Leo XIII

ARCANUM, 1880. The great weight and crucial test of history, by which it is plainly proved that the legislative and judicial authority of which We are speaking has been freely and constantly used by the Church, even in times when some foolishly suppose the head of the State either to have consented to it or connived at it. It would be incredible and altogether absurd to assume that Christ our Lord condemned the long-standing practice of polygamy and divorce by authority delegated to Him by the p...

Femmes Fatales, Part 3 - Heartiste

If you are a masochist who likes women with vestigial penises, then by all means knock yourself out with the Amazonian Alpha. This is what you need to keep in mind to seduce her: 1. DON’T accept her challenges. 2. DON’T answer shit tests ad infinitum. 3. DON’T brag about your achievements. 4. DON’T be ordinary. 5. DON’T be beta. 6. DON’T talk about her father. 7. DO stroke her ego. 8. DO qualify her hard. 9. DO fuck her like a silverback gorilla. 10. DO dump her after getting your rocks off. Why...

Femmes Fatales, Part 2 - Heartiste

Eternal Ingenues either came from divorced families with fathers who bought their love and loyalty, or they had a caring beta father heading an all-female family who had to divide his love between women. You’ll know if you are dating a potential Ingenue if you meet her girlfriends and they are all overprotective and annoyingly sassy cougars-in-training. The Eternal Ingenue HATES competition from attractive girls her own age.

"Get lost" - Heartiste

The best answer to female nastiness is calm. As long as your demeanor is calm and you look unflustered, you will knock a nasty cunt off her game plan. She’s expecting one reaction; you’re giving her another.

When To Move In For The Kiss On A First Date - Heartiste

To sum up, don’t kiss at the very beginning or the desperate end of a first date, don’t force a kiss if she isn’t giving indicators of interest, escalate physical contact until you ideally begin kissing her in the middle to last third of a date, and wait to kiss her when you’re settled into an intimate location. ... Girls who are being seduced properly *want* to be kissed. Always check for dilating pupils, hair twisting, leg opening, lip licking, heel dangling, head cocking, bar stool swiveling,...

Trumped-up Charges - Heartiste

Women love to bitch and moan about their men. It’s in their blood. But it matters not, most of the time. As long as you smite her heart with your heraldic war pike of forged steel alphaness, her bitching and moaning will waft into the ether, having no influence whatsoever on her desire to cling to you. In fact, bitching and moaning is often a sign that the woman is deeply in love, for such a powerfully debilitating emotion ushers forth a fusillade of half-hearted complaints as a grounding mechan...

Mixing Signals To Dazzle Women - Heartiste

In ranked order: 1. Indirect Body Language + Indirect Verbal Communication (best for amateurs) 2. Indirect Body Language + Direct Verbal Communication (for pros) 3. Direct Body Language + Direct Verbal Communication (when time is short or environment is fertile) 4. Direct Body Language + Indirect Verbal Communication (worst of both worlds)

Contrast Is King - Heartiste

All humans want to be fascinated. Kurt Cobain had it right -- here we are now, entertain us. Men are entertained by tits, ass and face. Women are entertained by male charisma and psychosocial savviness. They want to be kept on their toes, forever wondering what kind of man you are. Defying a woman’s expectations is the equivalent of a big-boobed woman taking off her sweater and shoving her cleavage in a man’s face.

A Devious Takeaway - Heartiste

A takeaway is the act of feigning disinterest in a woman for the purpose of increasing her attraction for you ... Takeaways are the Swiss Army knives of seduction, as they can be used at almost any point during the pickup, with equal effectiveness.

The Fine Art Of Teasing - Heartiste

You should be teasing your girlfriend or wife like this nearly every day of her life. Women LOVE LOVE LOVE men who don’t take them seriously. And what better way to convey an aloof disregard for her pride than through teasing?

“Are You Seeing Anyone?” - Heartiste

Range of Responses: 1. Sincerity “I’ve been dating someone for a bit, but I can’t say for sure she is the one.” 2. Lying: “No.” 3. Evasion / Reframing Few women will follow-up an expertly delivered evasion with cunty lawyerly argumentation. This is because women who ask such questions don’t really want to know the unvarnished answer. The question is asked only to give them plausible deniability should they find themselves bedding a taken man. 4. Circumspection “I’m dating around.” This is my fav...

Generalizing Your Way Into Her Panties - Heartiste

Ignore her calls for a week. When you eventually answer and she reads you the riot act, act as if nothing was wrong and accuse her of sabotaging a perfectly good relationship, “just like all the other women in this stupid city. I thought you were different”. Hang up on her angrily.

Direct Game Essentials - Heartiste

1. Don’t be shitfaced. 2. Don’t target the obnoxious attention whores. 3. Look for signs of ovulation in your targets. 4. Start direct, then switch to indirect, then back to direct. 5. It’s obvious, but bears repeating: overconfidence is king in direct game. 6. Avoid romantic flattery. 7. Be prepared to lead, every second. 8. Don’t overgame.

Being The Right Kind Of Asshole - Heartiste

There is a critical distinction between being a “caring asshole” that signals to women you are desperate for their vaginas, and being an aloof “uncaring asshole” that signals to women you could do without their vaginas, which ironically makes their vaginas feel strong love.

88 Precepts

1. Any religion or teaching which denies the Natural Laws of the Universe is false. 2. Nature’s Law are the work of a God - Force. 3. God and religion are distinct, separate and often conflicting concepts. 4. The truest form of prayer is communion with Nature. 5. Secular power systems promote religions that abandon defense against predators in this life. 6. History is a fable promulgated by those who perceive benefits. 7. Religion in most beneficial form is symbology of People and culture. 8. Wh...

Qualifying Her - Heartiste

Guys' inner game is so geared toward trying to impress her that they never even think to turn the tables and interview HER for the job. When women go on dates, they are interviewing the guys, whether they admit this or not. The way to defeat her at her own game is not to accept her terms of engagement at all. Instead, flip the script.

The Sexual Frame - Heartiste

Adopt a frame of mind that is infused with sexuality. Everything begins in the mind. When I see an attractive girl across the room and start walking toward her I immediately picture her naked and writhing under my sheets, sweating in ecstasy. When I am talking with her and it is clear that we click, I imagine what it would feel like to touch her bare skin. I am kissing her before our lips have committed to the kiss. As we delve deeper into conversation, a part of me visualizes peeling off her cl...

Game Is 50% Not Putting Foot In Mouth - Heartiste

Let this be a lesson. Very good looks on a man without any game will buy him 30 seconds to ten minutes of an attractive girl’s attention, after which he will be unceremoniously and disappointedly discarded just like any regular run of the mill schlub who doesn’t understand the art of seduction. Men need to stop projecting their fascination with looks onto women; personality and alphaness are what electrify a woman’s pleasure center.
