LA...beta is alpha?
03-01-2014, 03:46 AM
Some of you LA guys elaborate. I've never seen a town where bantamweight hipsters have the hottest chicks. This is obviously excluding some of the West LA types, but overall, I've noticed this trend is stronger here than elsewhere.
Should everyone just become a size XS and sport some raybans??

Here's the thing, it's basically across-the-board in LA with few exceptions. It's not confined to one or two neighborhoods how it is in NYC or Chicago.
LA being a very "alternative" city is probably a reason for this, and the same rules don't apply that would elsewhere. Interesting city.

LA is one of the few cities where an average guy can score 8s and above without really doing anything.
It's a culture thing. If those guys went east i can gaurentee you they wouldn't be doing so well.

Were you at the same club as I was last night?
Swear to God, the hottest girl I saw was rolling with a boyfriend who was wearing LEGGINGS. He was also shorter than her in heels by a couple inches, and looked kinda like Joseph Gordon Leavitt, so not super handsome or anything. And I'm pretty sure he wasn't gay. I just wish I could barge in and get the details on their background. Probably a band.
And this place was totally stacked with talent.

^Great point.
If you go to formally hipster joints, the talent isn't amazing, in LA at least. But in high end nightclubs you'll find that some of the hottest girls do have a hipster/American Apparel/ punk-ish style, sort of like Miley Cyrus or Rihanna. I don't care for tattoos or short hair, but there's no doubt that there are girls rocking them that are top tier, if only becausde these girls are 18-21.

I think it is a little simpler than that. A lot of the top girls, especially the young ones, smoke weed. If they are with a guy who doesn't look like some super alpha, but rather a hipster, he is probably hooking her up.

are you fucking high or what? sure, for me, all of my gfs have been from LA but this is complete bullshit. anywhere in California, you can't score 8s and above without going above and beyond. not even with 6s, can you score easily here.

Same in London. A lot of the best looking girls from middle class backgrounds aren't really interested in what people typically expect (muscles, sports cars, etc.). It's a different story for chav girls though, but who wants them?
It's still very competitive though, and it's the facially handsome men with a sharp dress sense that are cleaning up (and of course those with status).

Also, maybe I'm wrong, but it's rare that I see a non-celebrity non-white guy with a girl markedly better looking than him. Most of these guys who are on the inside top tier scene are white, and the people who'd like to be in it are considerably more non-white. Hot girls of all races can get admission, but guys, white or not, have a harder time. Sort of like frats in college. It's not racism per se, just natural insularity, female scarcity and male tribalism, but the impact is there.

even middle-class white guys from LA have a super hard time getting tail there. one of my close friends is one of them (he decided to jump ship and go to Italy because he couldn't stand the COL of LA and the unnecessary stress of living there).

I also get the impression that Mexican women care less about looks unless they are the really white-washed ones.
True. They mostly care how you work (non anglofied ones). the ones who are "white-washed" are like your typical stupid Californian white chick.

I think it is all about your frame to be honest. Flashing money can work, but it isn't necessary if you have charisma and confidence and project social value(looks, dress, attitude, social circle etc).

my buddy doesn't flash cash. he just does through social skills. LA is do or die and he couldn't do it (and the dude is a native of LA).
