I'm a newb and want to pick up girls at parties.
The only thing making me unsure are my (stylish) glasses
Could they somehow subconsciously hold girls back ??
because it make you look weake and nerdier, but on the other hand, it makes you smart and you don't look like the average guy

You need to post a picture of them, or preferably of you with them on to truly get an honest answer.

In general do NOT wear glasses as I think the negative implications far outweigh the positive stuff. The instant impression is weak, geeky, non physical...

I wear glasses and will be shifting over to contacts this year. I'm sick and tired of wearing them and it'll be interesting to experience life without them.

I think if you have some outlandish or unique glasses they'd make a great peacocking item. I have a friend and he wears a sort of set of sunglasses over a normal set (not well explained I know) but they look stylish and different. At a push you could even go for custom contacts with all weird designs.

You have to be comfortable with what you choose.

Why don't you try a test on Hot or Not. Post some photos of you wearing glasses and post some without glasses and compare the scores

I wear glasses and I have had a lot of girls say I look good with glasses. I even had a girl tell me straight up she thinks glasses are sexy. There are all types of girls out there that like different things. You dont need to get super critical about what you wear. I know that there are some lame styles of glasses out there so maybe if you went and bought a pair you thought were just badass then you will have the confidence when you wear them. My glasses are black with a little white star on the side. They are also on the smaller side because I dont want big glasses that look like gogles. Anyways dude find your own style and start doing your own unique thing. Be different, thats a good thing to girls!

I wear glasses occassionaly, make sure you wear a pair that suits the shape of your face, the sides should'nt pop out too far. If you have longish hair avoid dramatic glasses and stick to something simple, vice/versa

To me, that is just a bit too much peacocking :O to me it seems more needy for attention than peacocking.

Not to be a dick, just wondering if you ever get called out on them or anything, or just positive comments?

Fair enough, well i've had them for a few years which is when i got them on holiday, i have only had positive comments, girls asking to borrow them and many of times it has led to number and kiss closing....

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

Rhukkas,

good points. I think anything can be considered as attractive in the right frame of mind.

I'm never convinced when girls say that glasses are sexy - I think it's one of those auto-pilot responses just to 'not hurt your feelings'

If you HAVE to wear glasses then work with it as best possible otherwise ditch the fucking things.

You'll be hard pressed to name one single famous cool man who wears glasses...And I'm not talking about sunglasses either!

:) :) 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.
