#135 A Critical Look at Pickup Artists (with Sarah Martin) - a podcast by Cam Fraser

On this episode of #mensexpleasure, I chat with Sarah Martin. Sarah is an anti-fascist sex & dating coach who helps horny people get laid ethically. She's the host of the Slutty Activism podcast and the creator of the Dignified Hedonist framework. She wrote her master's thesis about economic metaphor in pickup artist handbooks. She calls Vilnius, Lithuania home. The two of us talk about her Masters research regarding pickup artists and the seduction community. We discuss the way that sex and relationships are framed in this community, why this is detrimental, and how to reframe these for men.

Key Points:

• Sarah introduces herself


• “High value”: Dating and economic metaphor


• Men as buyers, women as sellers


• Women are liars


• The Manosphere


• Masculinity and anti-femininity


• Shame free dating advice


• Talking with someone you’re attracted to
