We each fall somewhere on the 9-sided moral alignment die. Lawful Good, Chaotic Neutral, Neutral Evil… where do you fall, and how does it impact things?
This should be a fun article. Or even an insightful one... depends how much you like personality tests.
... but most of us like personality tests, don't we?
And this one's a fairly useful one, as far as personality tests go.
A recent study discovered six 'dark' traits (egoism, narcissism, Machiavellianism, sadism, psychopathy, and spitefulness) all stem from the same underlying 'dark core'... something the researchers dubbed 'the Dark Factor of Personality'. The result is that if you have one dark trait, you are likely to have others -- because they all come from that same dark center.

Over the last few years I've thought a lot about dark and light. I discussed the phenomenon of younger 'dark' guys who reform when older in "The Civilized Man." I talked about the choice between goodness and wickedness in "The Good King." And I went in-depth on some of the research into the 'light side' of personality in "Be the Lightbringer: Dating and the Sublime Benefits of Positivity." And of course, aside from these, we've always urged you to do right by women and other people, and avoid bitterness yourself... as much for your own sake as for others'.
The seduction space can serve as a magnet for dark characters... even if most of the men in it are neutral- or light-oriented. The dark characters rarely reach levels of prominence within the community -- whether it's more because their methods repel the non-dark men too much, or they just don't care to help/teach other men enough to carve out a niche, I couldn't say. But there are guys like this who become instructors, or rise to this or that level of prominence within seduction communities... sometimes concealing their dark side, sometimes wearing it on their sleeves.
One of the reasons I won't teach 'dark side tech' -- things like reverse supplication, sexual power reversal, one-sided monogamy, taming/dependency, or the infamous October Man sequence --is the existence of 'dark-side' guys within the community (all the non-dark guys who'd cause damage purely by accident are the other part of the reason). If everyone was light-side, we could perhaps talk about this stuff and trust most guys to use it responsibly... but not everyone is, so this stuff stays tucked away under lock and key.
Why do people have these different dispositions? How different are the dispositions anyway -- are people just a little different from one another, or are the differences BIG? And how do these differences come about in the first place?
By pure chance, one day I came across a Dungeons & Dragons 'alignment test'. The test allowed you to sniff out where on the 'alignment scale' you fall... good or evil? Lawful, neutral, or chaotic?
I thought it would be a fun thing to play with. But in fact, it's turned out to be accurate for real people I've used it with, to quite a surprising degree.

Where I stand / Evolution
The test gave me "Neutral Chaotic". Though some of the questions, or rather the answer possibilities were a little too subjective and restrictive, and didn't leave adequate choice sometimes. In reality I'm closer to "Good Chaotic" - meaning I overall provide more value than I take, equal at worse, and I rarely cheat, but on the macro I'm not all that inclined towards God, nation, family, community, and that kind of stuff. I'd much rather be left and my money alone with few social restrictions on business and sexuality and drugs and the like. I think social rules should be few (but well-enforced): don't physically assault people unless in self-defense or consensual fights, don't take people's stuff by force or destroy their property, and you can't acquire sex through physical force or overt blackmail. And that's pretty much it. Just basic law-and-order stuff. That's why my political leanings is whatever is closest to a night-watchman state.
I think civilization in general selects for a more Good- and Lawful-oriented population, if not through social pressure (by making it beneficial to be so), then by making those with the natural predispositions towards those two attributes more prevalent over time. That's supposing laws restricting freedom and punishing anti-social behavior and corruption are well-enforced. It's also supposing that people who do time in their lifetime leave on average less descendants than those who don't. I mean we know for pretty much certain that civilization and the justice system slightly select against testosterone levels in the population, and that capitalism selects for higher IQ (though with the increased safety net of today, that may not be the case anymore). And so in light of this, it's not so hard to imagine that the people who want the most freedom in their lives will be more likely to abstain from having families and children (which isn't hard to do with modern contraception) and that the most evil and antisocial just end up shunned or imprisoned (thus possibly decreasing their chances to procreate).
Chase / GC Writers: Any Advice on Rejecting Girls?
Hey Chase / other GC Writers:
So today a girl asked me out to the Senior Ball next year, and against my better judgement I said yes. Long story short, I really don't want to go out with her so I have to reject her, however this is obviously not a great situation to be in. Some advice would be appreciated, as there is nothing I like about this girl (slightly overweight, ugly, not smart, etc) however she is nice and polite and all the rest of it so I dont want to hurt her feelings / embarrass her. Also, after I dump her I intend to ask out another girl in the next couple of weeks and she will find out, sooooo.... do I reject her and most likely hurt her or cop the bad date and deal with it? Advice Please!!
