I gave up . It ' s been two years and I am very happy with my iPhone 7 Plus . But it still earks me when I see posts of people in similar situations that get something free or an amazing customer service experience from a nice employee , and I just got shafted . <| sep |> lol , of course one doesn ' t mean the other . you can have power , and still get slapped . what i meant . the unsung quality of powerful politicians , ceos , or what ever . is they have a good read on body language , and facial expressions . its like a big poker game . knowing when to bluff , intimidate , call , or fold . when a man abandons his instincts , to adopt the external expectation of behavior . that external pressure , always tames , and makes the man a beta . the man that recognizes this current , but uses it , rather than being dragged under . becomes the captain of the ship . more directly in terms of women . a hard core feminist i knew , who would rant about roosh v . also posted a meme to the effect of don ' t ask her for sex , carry her to bed like a viking . the same woman , that felt the need to stamp out any violence against women , would fantasize about being takenwhen you follow the common assertion that females are wholesome , and morally superior . you turn off your very instincts that would lead you to romantic success , out of fear of punishment . how ever , making yourself the best version of your self , while fine tuning your instincts , to know when and when not to act , will elevate you above the system .
