I hate those pick up artist people. How can someones life be so inane that they devote a large amount of time to having mindless sex with random people? How can sex even keep its meaning if such behaviors are practiced?
I know a friend that has looked into the PUA stuff and he showed me some hidden cam videos of guys like you are talking about picking up random girls. There are a large number of women that don't or wouldn't fall for this sort of thing. Even if a PUA has lots of succes perhaps it is because he knows who will turn him down and of course avoids those women.
Sex is never mindless in my opinion
You are connecting with another human being, even if only physically and touch is very important to humans - receiving skin to skin contact with another human being is important for peoples' mental health - this is why massage is so popular and why babies that aren't held or loved by their parents are severely affected psychologically.
In my opinion people focus a bit too much on the 'it must be a relationship or nothing' aspect of things. If you are single and haven't had sex in a while and feel low, sex, if only once with a person can be a major boost to your system. Sex can make you feel very alive and happy and should never be seen as an inane thing.
Whereas doing all the tedious 'relationship' stuff like going out for meals and to bars - that is the inane 'filler' stuff as far as I'm concerned.
