THE FORUMS

That's awesome man, I've had a lot of stupid little interactions like that. Someone once said that being dominant means staying in the mood that you were already in.... refusing to shift your state based on external stimuli. You're probably very centered. I used to do amateur boxing, so I believe that martial arts makes the majority of guys involved in it uninterested in proving themself through random street brawls.  I have found that one of the best ways to punk a guy is to act like you're bored and tired.  In addition, I like to laugh a lot, I am an easy laugher... so any time dudes try to say something to me to make fun of me (which doesn't happen a lot) I usually laugh back at whatever they said because to me its probably funny. Having the ability to laugh at oneself goes a long way.  After a night out I once got dropped off at my car to see 3 dudes just as they were about to try picking the locks on my car.  I honestly wasn't mad or anything, I was calm as fuck, still in "pick up mode" (ie happy fun social) and told my friend, "no dude don't get out of your truck, (that would look like we wanna fight), I said don't get out of your truck unless they start shit with me. What I'm going to do is get in my car and drive away in it just like I planned to before I seen these fools (dominance)."  

And guess what? It was like they wanted rapport with me. I didn't judge them, I didn't get all freaked out and reactive. I believe the alpha thing to do is often to be MORE relaxed and MORE calm in stressful situations. 

 I guess dude, I've been trained to fight/kill etc. so I maybe I can't comment on this in an unbiased manner but I think that WHEN you're out you don't wanna be in that headspace  where physical violence is even an option. When I'm confident around mixed sets, hotties, and other random dudes, the confidence doesn't come from my ability to destroy a dude, it comes from social momentum etc. 
But then again, maybe a lot of dudes should train in a martial art just to develop manly, aggressive, competitive confidence. 
Like they say, no matter how bad you are, someone is bigger and stronger and tougher than you. Its like an endless vaccuum. Unless you're gonna be a karate grandmaster or something. 
So, definitely do the martial arts thing, but I don't think you're gonna find confidence with chicks from it. Dudes can be tough as hell in the ring but still be afraid of beautiful women. Its the damnedest thing. 

Best of luck!

I never really respected guys that didn't know how to fight, but I guess most guys know how to manuever around situations where it would get physical. You can talk all the shit you want, but if I punch you in the face, there's very little you can do with your game. I definitely recommend you learn how to fight, and study multiple disciplines. 
Realistically, if you're in a "safe" area with cops and security, you might be alright, but the world is much larger than just those places. In most places in the world, arbitrary rules and laws apply. Knowing how to effectively disable other people is an insurance policy that makes you more valuable as a man. Within my circle of friends, almost everyone knows how deal punishment and protect themselves, women respect that and can feel safe around you. Obviously this isn't a path for everyone but every man needs to feel safe and secure in his environment and there's different means to acheiving that.

Of course. Just saying that it is probably a bad idea to expect that one would instantly be able to whoop azz just because they trained.

not sure if serious or trolling
