The Tao of Badass by Joshua Pellicer is one of the few dating guides online that’s both practical and has a holistic rather than a tactics based approach. If you want to improve your dating life, meet smoking hot women and have them instantly attracted to you – Without having to pretend like you’re someone you’re not, then the Tao of Badass might be for you.
The Tao of Badass doesn’t teach you to be a jerk. It doesn’t teach you pickup lines. It doesn’t teach you anything artificial that you might feel incongruent about. Instead, it teaches you how to transform yourself into a powerful, attractive man that women will naturally be attracted to.
So what exactly will you learn from the Tao of Badass?
What Attracts Women
Women aren’t attracted by clever lines or artificial behaviors. There’s a reason that most men who try these kinds of pickup lines don’t get the kind of success they’re looking for.
Instead, women are looking for characteristics in men that show they’re confident, self-expressed and living a life of their own creation. Joshua goes into detail on how to become this kind of person.
How to Approach a Woman
The only way you’ll ever go from not knowing a woman to knowing her and possibly sleeping with her and/or having a relationship with her is to start a conversation.
Most men have a lot of trouble with this. What do you say to a woman? What’s she thinking when you come up to her? What’s the best way to make a strong impression?
Joshua answers all these questions and more.
How to Destroy Approach Anxiety
Approaching a woman can be nerve wrecking. There are all kinds of self-preserving instincts that kick in. All your intuition will be screaming for you not to do it. Yet, if you really want the kind of sex and dating life you’ve always dreamed of with women, you’re going to have to learn how to get over approach anxiety.
Joshua spends a considerable amount of time on the subject. He talks about why approach anxiety happens and exactly how you can eliminate it from your life for good.
Be Yourself, Be Attractive
This book has a major focus on self-expression. Not just self-expression in any sense, but being expressive in your best self, your most confident self.
This book does not teach you to put on a façade. It doesn’t teach you to hide who you are. Rather, it teaches you how to grow who you are and express who you are.
This book has a much more long term outlook than most dating guides. It’s designed to help you consistently create incredible interactions with women that last, rather than clever lines that get a girl to laugh for 5 minutes then fizzle out.
Know When She’s Interested
Another important aspect of dating and seduction is recognizing when a girl is into you. Women almost never come up and say that they’re attracted to a guy. Instead, they give hints and signals. As a guy, you need to be able to read those signals.
Once you know what to look for, it becomes crystal clear when a woman is into you. On the other hand, if you don’t know what to look for, you’ll be completely clueless when it comes to figuring out whether or not she likes you.
Joshua will show you all the signs that a woman displays when she’s into you, so you can instantly recognize the attraction when it’s there.
Understand Women’s Filtering Mechanisms
There are a handful of things you can do that’ll quickly land you in a danger zone. These zones include “The Friend Zone” or “The Creepy Guy” zone.
Once you’re in one of these zones, there’s essentially no way out. You’ll never convince a woman that you’re lover material rather than friend material. You’ll never convince a woman that you’re not creepy.
Instead, the best way out of these zones is to never land in them in the first place. Joshua shows you how women’s filtering mechanisms work and how you can make sure you don’t get “filtered” into one of these zones.
Four Bonus Guides
The Tao of Badass comes with four bonus guides: “Monogamy vs. Polygamy,” “Never Get Cheated On,” “Escaping the Friend Zone,” and “Guide to Breaking Up.”
The “Monogamy vs. Polygamy” guide will help you navigate dating multiple women or deciding when you want to be with just one. Often time’s men simply choose to follow what society dictates, rather than truly making their own choice.
The “Never Get Cheated On” guide focuses on exactly what it is that keeps women loyal to one guy. The guide ensures that you never display the signals that cause a woman to cheat.
The “Escaping the Friend Zone” guide is perfect for guys who have trouble getting women to view them in a sexual light.
Finally, the “Guide to Breaking Up” will show you how to break up with women in a way that’s amicable for both sides.
Are There Any Downsides to the Book?
The book has just one downside.
At times, it can be rather scientific. Instead of just telling you “This is what to do, Step 1 Step 2 Step 3,” the book spends a lot of time covering the scientific theory of why things are the way they are.
If you’re looking to just get the quick solution, this book might appear a little heavy at times. However, what Joshua’s really trying to do is set you up with solid fundamentals. In order to have solid fundamentals, it really helps to understand why things are the way they are.
To sum things up, the Tao of Badass may be the book for you if you want to be able to fully express who you are and get girls, rather than learn pickup lines and pickup tactics.
It’s not a quick-fix guide, but a detailed step by step guide to a complete transformation in your dating life.
