:) :) I have NEVER had a girl say my glasses were sexy. they will only comment on your glasses if you are a pussy.

I reckon put glasses on any top PUA and their performance would only be affected by their own pre-conceptions.
Ok Johnny Depp - but I suspect they are a peacocking item for him. They look like the flat lens - decorative type rather than a prescriptive type to correct vision.

Let's try another angle - name one top PUA who *recommends* you keep glasses. I'll be VERY surprised if you find one. Though I really admire that video of Yad doing daygame picking up the Russian girl and he's looking the most un-stylish PUA ever...but he's great.

In The Game - Mystery to Style - ditch the glasses. Style in The Rules Of The Game - lose the glasses.

I do agree that a *TOP* PUA is unlikely to be affected by wearing glasses and do agree it is an inner game thing - but the thing is it is one part of outer game which is pretty easy to correct for newbies to increase confidence. I think it's similar to being overweight - it's unlikely to attract anyone and there's something you can do about it. Women *ARE* attracted by looks but luckily not as much as men!

If your confidence is increased by not wearing glasses then it isn't real confidence. Confidence comes when you accept who you are, not admire someone you are not. That's arrogance.

If you can afford to get lazer surgery or get contacts then go for it, do it for yourself. Not for anyone else. I would love to not have to wear glasses purely from a standpoint of hassle but other than that its a non-issue. It's like going to the gym. There's only a point if you're doing it for yourself with a set goal that requires a certain level of fitness.

At the end of the day getting fit to run a marathon, or doing something cool is always more attractive than getting fit to... pull women. Top notch Women will see right through any faker.

Style is right in saying be your best self. But if your best self is someone self-concious about something so silly as glasses then what's the point?

Think of it this way. Glasses are a fantastic filter. If a chick rejects PURELY on your glasses then clearly she isn't worthy of your attention and time. Why waste your time playing a game with a chick who is so shallow to reject someone on that basis.

I wear glasses and never had any problems with them when it comes to girls. In my experience most girls don't seem to mind them.

It depends what sort of girl you're going for. Glasses make you look intellectual and sensitive; some girls like that. If you want to appeal to the majority, then probably lose the glasses, but there are some girls who really adore guys in glasses.

I have a lazy eye, so I pretty much have to wear glasses. It actually straightens my eye out. Without them my left eye is cock eyed! I could try contacts but trying to put them in an absolute NIGHTMARE. One eye works and one kinda just does fuck all. it's so odd. It has focus but is just a lazy cunt.

But wearing glasses didn't stop me catching a 9 and getting 9s chattin' ME up at clubs.

I think for me the ability to not take myself seriously and worry about my odd eye is a valuable characteristic. If an odd lookin' eye doesn't fuck up my confidence in a world of visual perfection then I must be of value.

One of the main rules of PUA is that physical characteristics your born with aren't THAT important. It's making the best of what you have got.

IMO if your a 24/7 glasses wearer make sure you have nice ones. Other than that don't worry about it. Try contacts by all means though. But glasses aren't a no-go
I too have a lazy eye (right eye). One of my coworkers noticed it easily due to the cockeyedness, Other people haven't said anything though. In this case, it would be better to stick with glasses?

Conventional wisdom says lose the glasses, but I actually find myself more successful with mine on, personally (last night, for example, I had an HB8 pulling them right off my face to try them on, then taking pictures in them etc.)... If you're wearing glasses, make sure they're "cool". Try on a lot of different frames, get second opinions from girls you trust to be honest with you. If you can afford it, get more than one different set of frames for different environments and outfits. If you're going out to a club/concert etc. try and have something eye catching (I have some horn-rimmed vintage-ey frames that look like across between Woody Allen's and Malcolm X's) when used properly glasses can be effective peacocking. Really, the important part is to just feel comfortable in anything you're wearing.

Hey Guys,

I remembered this post, and was just thinking of sharing some of my insights after i recently switched to contacts after a looong time...about 1 year ago, maybe less, i decided i was going to wear glasses as i thought at the time, it was more comfortable, and hence, derived a more relaxed, confident vibe when chatting to girls. It did improve my game, especially in clubs where it was very smokey and used to bug my eyes...it looked as if i was crying or really sleepy! Ha..so glasses it was. And then a week ago, i tried a new pair of contacts on with more oxygen in so they say, and i could see much more clearer than with lenses! It really helped me be more confident and anticipate in the field. A woman has a strong intuition, and with glasses, peripheral vision is not great. If she is on the corner of your eye, you have to literally turn about 45 degrees to check her out. It takes out the mystery by making eye contact with your body half turned away...as if to say i know your checking me out..but i'm not going to communicate i like you right away...let the cat play with the string for a bit? Anyways, maybe i'm looking at it differently, would be cool to hear your interpretations. And also, contacts allows your eyesight to be a bit more natural, and your body movements more fluid. With glasses, your eyeball is not entirely covered with lens..and so you get half blur and half clarity. Walking down the stairs feels like an old man taking his time being careful not to fall...and also with the theory of natural selection...evolution favors the best genes. If a man shows eye weakness, he may not be able to protect her offspring 100% just like his vision. It is a more favorable trait. Hence, not so much the image (looks good or not) but what it sub-communicates at a biological level?
