The Dark Herald shares a tale of utilizing a Gamma’s behavioral pattern for his own benefit:
Back in the 1990s when I was still in the game, there was a guy named Palmore… We all called him Poo-more which tells you just about everything you need to know about the dude.
Anyway, Poo-more would try to warn off any girl I was talking to with, “You should stay away from Jack. He’s just a player!”
He was doing this for free when I gladly would have been paying him.
Preselection is unbelievably powerful. What he was really telling those girls was, that a lot of other women have found this guy more than a little worth their time and attention.
Bottomline: If you can’t afford to pay a guy to do this for you, just find a Gamma Male and get him into White Knight mode.
Talk about the approach you are going to use with a girl he clearly has a crush on within his earshot.
His instincts will do the rest.
As I keep trying to tell people, usually to no avail, using the SSH to obsess about yourself is a complete misuse of a powerful tool. Using it to understand, anticipate, and utilize the behavior of others is a much more useful application.
When I first encountered Vox's SSH as a Bravo, I spent three minutes committing to memory all the negative traits of a Delta, Gamma, and Omega and making a mental note to avoid those traits. That's as far as I got for inward SSH contemplation.
I have used SSH in a mercenary fashion ever since. For example, when talking to potential clients:
Alpha: Emphasize the mission.
Bravo: Talk about the team.
Delta: Talk about the importance of the job.
Gamma: Be pleasant and never work with this person.
Lambda: Talk about girlie things.
That's just one example of how I use the SSH to make wads of cash.
Outside my bank account, it sure makes predicting behavior easier. It was never about me. It's about the team.
The understanding of the SSH is a Bravo SuperPower.
"using the SSH to obsess about yourself is a complete misuse of a powerful tool. Using it to understand,"
You are saying this in mockery, steepled hands infront of you chest aren't you? We all know this unless we are a delta or gamma. And even most experienced Delta's should have realized this already.
