Because most men try to befriend their way into romance. You meet a woman you're attracted to and instead of acting on attraction, you suppress your sexuality and masculinity by "playing it safe" in order to not "scare her off". You don't play to win you just play to not lose.
Yes, that makes sense.

I'm highly certain a fair number of people genuinely like, admire, value, feel close to and really understand their parents/siblings. Yet they don't really want to fuck them, do they?
Correct. But can you have both?
Point of order: Is the advice here all about getting lots of fucks from lots of different women are are meaninful relationships discussed here to. Honest question!
> You don't buy a car without taking it for a testdrive,
Yes, good point. You don't go into a car showroom (or a moroccan souk) and declare your hand showing you are desperate to buy anything. But neither do you go in pretending that you have no money at all. You go in indicating that you have money and that you MIGHT be interested. i.e. I think we agree.

Yes pretending you don't want to fuck them when you do is manipulative and dishonest.
Learning how to talk better, relate better and fuck better to women is broadly a good thing.
But how far are you going with this - are you honestly claiming that none of all this PUA material is manipulative? Honest question.
