@St_Rev Their needed confidence is not for PUA theory per se. They after all don't discuss PUA theories with women.
...but PUA ideology is explicitly *about* rejecting uncertainty. Smugness, arrogance are qualities to be cultivated (if not shown).

@afoolswisdom I think there's a penumbra effect. How else do you explain a knucklehead like Vox Day? -
@St_Rev Hmm yes confidence in a man is after all more about himself than about his beliefs per se. -
@afoolswisdom Not sure what you mean. -
@St_Rev What I think you mean by the penumbra effect? That if a man is confident in something, it's more of a general confidence in himself. -
@afoolswisdom Yeah, the *affect* of confidence is a social signalling value in the PUA community. Guruism. -
@St_Rev Ah! So a practical requirement for confidence in the field becomes also a bloated group norm for bluster. -
@afoolswisdom Yup, exactly.
