Whether it's true or not is debatable. However, there is this guy on TV that is very entertaining called Darren Brown: http://youtube.com/watch?v=3Vz_YTNLn6w Another person who actively practices it is Chris Angel. I think his stuff is pretty legit. He has said so himself that he is "not a magician, but an illusionist." He looks for subtle changes in body language and uses words to influence the mind in certain ways. NLP (neuro linguistic programming) is supposedly “real”. Whether it’s true or not is debatable.

That seemed like such bullshit. I've heard some audio books by David DeAngelo (stage name). His stuff is pretty good too.

I do think that Mystery could achieve similar results if he were shorter, he'd just have to work harder. It's like anything else: some people are born with certain advantages and they have to work less at compensating for them. Of course, those that are shorter have to compensate with hard work... or a nice car ;) Also, in the seduction community, these guys talk about getting a girl "in state". Sounds kind of creepy, but we all do it to each other. It's when everything else in the bar disappears and the only thing you can focus on is the other person. It's honestly a GREAT feeling! The Game and seduction depend on one's ability to get his/her "target" in state. Once the target falls out of state the whole game changes. Therefore, it's more realistic to say that someone practicing the game can get any girl in-state, but I do agree it may be difficult for some to keep a "high caliber" (aka - high maintenance) girl for the long haul. Anyway, just my humble opinion. In any case, Neil Strauss is the shit. Although I agree with what you’re saying here, I’m not sure these are really “myths”.
