    In an ideal world this advice would work.
  

*by T***R on Reviewed in the United States on December 5, 2016*

The whole concept of this book is to not waste time when in reality you will waste a lot of time being REAL, UPFRONT AND HONEST. It sucks but that's the truth. Let me explain...In an ideal world this would be solid advice and would work. It’s not bad advice and i’m not knocking the book so go ahead and read it, try it. Go up to any girl you like, tell her you want to have sex with her and see what happens. Please do it, tonight if possible, and come back and leave a comment about your experience. Just don’t be surprised if you don't get that same honesty and reciprocation back in return. Unfortunately women are not the logical, rational creatures that men are. A woman is not as good as her word, they don’t operate the same way men do. Although some of these women exist, most women want to have some form of emotional connection with you, they need to like you and develop some sort of feelings for you in order to sleep with you. This isn't just my belief and experience this is reality. For them it’s all about the mystery, the challenge that you present to them, the illusion, the possibilities. Where is the challenge in being straightforward with them, especially at the very beginning? It’s like being told how the movie turns out while waiting in line to buy tickets to see it. Where is the excitement in that?Aside from that, most women have a flood of orbiters at their disposal at any given moment who are foaming at the mouth on standby willing and waiting to do anything for them at the drop of a dime. Women can have sex with whomever they want practically whenever they want so why should they have it with you when you present no challenge to them with your honesty when your killing the game of seduction before it even starts? In a perfect world everyone would be honest about their intentions either in dating, business or any endeavor but that's not how life works.Because of their sexual power, women have become very picky about who they spend their time with and would most likely see you as another one of those thirsty dudes that just thinks about sex. Where’s the fun and challenge in that? Women hold the cards in the sexual realm and where there is power their is abuse. Absolute power corrupts absolutely. You don’t tend to appreciate what is easily obtained. Why should I sleep with you? Give me a reason? This books problem is that it tends to believe that both men and women prioritize sex equally. They don't, at least not at the beginning until a woman builds attraction for you, once again until they fill that emotional gap. Women simply don't have testosterone running through their veins the way men do. That's not to say they women don't get extremely horny and crave sex but they once again need to have that emotional connection. You want to be upfront and straight forward here are some tips. Go to Vegas or on a vacation, date older women who aren't necessarily looking for anything serious. Older women for the most part don't play as many games. Date a girl on a rebound who is just looking to have some fun and clear her head.Even Currie states in his book and I quote “In my lifetime no more than 10-15% of the women i’ve met have been reciprocators” That’s because as he insinuates, most women want to be lied to! Most women want to play games! And this is a guy who has dedicated his life to game, most likely has connections and a mouth piece and experience yet still only experiences a 10-15% reciprocation rate. The chances would most likely be lower for an average man and if having sex was critical to survival as food is, you would most likely starve to death following the advice in this book. That's like a lion going up to a Gazelle without a strategy, skill, plan or speed, walking up and asking if it's ok to be eaten...There is a reason why GAME exists, there is a reason why there is a whole community of PUA’s, Manosphere bloggers and relationship advice for men and why it has exploded in recent years. It’s because women for the most part and i’m generalizing here are manipulative, cunning, time-wasters, attention whores and deceiving and men are FED up with it and are looking for ways to learn Game in order to develop themselves, reverse or at the very least even the playing field. If Curry states that 10-15% of women reciprocate, that means that at least 85-90% of women are time-wasters and manipulators. Think about that for a moment.If all it took to getting laid was to be upfront and straightforward, I mean if it were that easy...you wouldn’t see thirsty and needy dudes everywhere which has sadly reached epidemic proportions. Dudes are thirsty because they are too honest and nice, dudes are thirsty because women play games despite their honesty, dudes are thirsty because women abuse their sexual power, dudes are thirsty because women manipulate, dudes are thirsty because having sex with a girl isn’t as easy as going up to her and telling her exactly what you want. Dudes WOULD NOT be thirsty if it was that easy. Go read the Art of Seduction and see why their is such an art called seduction and why the biggest pimps in history learned about psychology, persuasion, and female drive in order to get what they want from them. Seduction is an art, especially now more than ever when women have options galore due to online dating, social media and smartphones while a diminishing ability to stay focused on any one guy.This book is good in the sense that it does a great job of breaking down the different types of women and knowing who exactly your dealing with. I agree with the author regarding that. It will in the end save you a lot of time, money and heartache knowing which women are down with you or are simply playing you. It's also true that if your blunt and honest about your intentions, you will avoid manipulation and games for the most part. But as also stated in the book, there is a reason why women love bad boys. You think bad boys are honest, sweet, caring and upfront? NO! Bad boys aside from a high level of confidence have an ability to stir emotions in a women which will cause them to react favorably.One rule of thumb that I always follow is to ALWAYS pay attention at how a women treats you, the things she does and never if ever what she actually says. This goes regardless of what your intentions are with a women; you must always tread carefully. If a woman doesn’t text you back, asks you out or at the very least reciprocates half the things you do for her then move on. NEVER chase women. There is nothing you can do that will quickly have her lose attraction for you then chasing her and acting needy. Women want their Prince Charming meaning you HAVE to be the prize, you have to demonstrate a higher value by being confident, presenting a challenge to them but more importantly by actually being "That Guy".  As soon as you chase women you are no longer that prize they covet and that is precisely when the head games and manipulation starts.So how does a woman sleep with you? Whether they are looking for something serious or not you will ALWAYS have to be their best option. Go read a book called "Space Age Pimpin by Paradise" there is a quote on their that has always stuck with me that says..."Im only as good as my competitor is bad" "If I look like everyone else and have what everyone else has, how am I different, where do i hold the balance of power? Dwell on that...Now the reason for the 3 stars and not 1 is because their is some solid advice on what to look for in a woman, and the advice may work 10-15% of the time as the author states in women reciprocating....just remember that you need to be their best option at any given moment and women's options multiply on a weekly basis which is why they initiate 70% of all breakups. BE THAT GUY!Does this mean that I believe in lying to women? No. I just believe there is a time and place for everything just as in a movie. The opening act, the buildup and the plot. You aren't always going to know what you want from a woman until you get to know her so it's always to best feel her out and the situation. It's hard to know someone immediately because everyone (both men and women) put on fronts. It's a defense mechanism to put your best foot forward at the beginning. Therefore you need time to build something with a person. How am I going to go on a date with a woman and on the first night be like " look, i think your great and all but I just wan't to exchange orgasms with you? Seriously! That might be your sole intention but what if you start building chemistry with this girl? What if you form a connection and bond? I'm always real with a women and although I might not necessarily be looking for anything serious I don't always spit it out immediately. Go on a few dates, get a feel for her, see is there is a connection, try to gauge what she's about and where she is coming from. Women are subtle creatures and don't always make their intentions known right away so unless you are an experienced player and know immediately, then find out what she wants. Be smooth about the whole process, it could be that she is also not looking for anything serious. If after a few dates (2-3 weeks coffee, lounge) you realize that there is nothing more than a physical connection be real with her and let her know, my experience is that most girls will appreciate honesty in due time and will at least let you hit it once or twice before moving on. If your cool and she can trust you they have a tendency to come back. You just can't be that blunt, thirsty dude that represents 99% of guys out there. Be different, be that guy and like I said be honest, but be smooth about the whole process and get a feel for the situation. And always remember that games will be played to a greater or lesser extent when you interact with a women, especially on a sexual level. There is a reason why game tactics exist, it's a way to maneuver through the cold, calculating, ruthless, competitive world of seduction. Arm yourself with knowledge, work on yourself, become their best option and never chase but instead put yourself in a position to be seen and sought after. Be subtle, smooth and mysterious and in due time let your intentions be known. Women unconsciously know what a man wants by feeling him out, his level of confidence, his social status and economic situation. Women are not dumb, so unless they ask you directly or you know for a fact that you don't want to keep engaging them keep it interesting, light and fun at the beginning. Don't spoil the movie too quickly. The best gift you casn give to a women is to engage her emotions and imagination. You literally kill it by being too upfront and straightforward.

    This is a fantastic book!
  

*by G***N on Reviewed in the United States on March 13, 2016*

This is a fantastic book! It is a supplement to MODE ONE, it expands on the book in a very concise manner. If you read MODE ONE, UPFRONT AND STRAIGHTFORWARD is a must read! Hopefully one day, Alan Roger Currie, will be courteous enough to make these two books into one. In this way, the brilliantly written books will be read as one complete subject.I am having a ball reading Alan Roger Currie's books. MODE ONE AND UPFRONT AND STRAIGHTFORWARD are his first two books. Each was a hit back to back. This material is what your parents never really told you in the area of seduction---at least not in this very precise scientific manner. This stuff is what develops balls in men if they don't have any! MODE ONE is not all about seduction; it's a way of life. It's about being truly you! It is about expressing yourself---the very essence of what you are. It's about being genuine and unapologetic about your very own existence.If you are sugar coated, a flake, a sissy, someone who is needy this book along with Mode One will most likely help you tear all that apart! And then it will be a start or process to reconstructing your life.If you find and read the right books in the art of seduction, they can't but turn you into A MAN! A MAN reliable and trustworthy in a relationship. A MAN in the area of business where you can be counted on. A MAN in sports where you are viewed as one being a good sport. A MAN in life in general that knows what he wants, and communicates that easily and apologetic and gets what he wants out of life without beating around the bush. Personally speaking, you can get or expand on these qualities by first reading MODE ONE and then UPFRONT AND STRAIGHTFORWARD.Thank you Alan for your great insight! The information you provide in your books is priceless. The information is universal, it applies to men and women in its respective ways. It is your gift to mankind!
