This article is full of goodies.
So the TL DR on the article is that it’s an interview with 3 pimps in a Texas prison. We here at WIA (we being just me, but it’s a royal “we” cause I’m on some King shit) – are against PIMPING, human trafficking, and sexual slavery.
But pimps, just like politicians, and preachers are prime examples of perfect persuaders.
Where a lot of men have issues getting a girl to respond to a text, these people are able to get women to sell their bodies. And when you really think about how our society works – your college takes your money on the PROMISE of a reward in the end. Your pastor takes your tithes on the PROMISE of a reward in Heaven. Your boss keeps you from leaving the job and going out on your own by giving you a PERCENTAGE of what they make on your efforts. In a sense, we’re all in a huge PYRAMID scheme. The PHAROAHS at the top don’t even deal with the same rules that we do. They don’t learn the same things we do. We don’t learn about power. That’s all they do. Most of the bad things that happen in this world are about POWER, and people with it struggling against other people with POWER.
So what can we learn from these pimps? Can we grab facts, mindsets, or techniques?
First little goodie
Jasmine Johnson, 26, is serving a 25-year sentence for trafficking a minor — a young victim the Tribune is featuring in this series. Johnson still maintains her innocence in that case, though she spoke openly about her experience as a pimp who led a group of eight adult women in Dallas
This is rich because – 1) the Pimp is a woman, 2) she’s still playing the victim even though she’s the victimizer, 3) she can’t shut the hell up about her crimes, 4) this 26 year old woman led a group of 8 ADULT WOMEN.
Pimps, in common conception, are usually men. And we would think that no able bodied/sound minded woman would let ANOTHER woman tell her to who to fuck, and how much to charge.
What could one woman hold over the other women to keep her in check? It’s not strength of the body. It’s strength of the mind!
How did you first get into the sex trade?
Johnson: I guess ’cause my daddy wasn’t a part of my life, I acted out. I hated to see my mama struggle. I just started hustling. I knew I always had pimping stuff in me, but I didn’t call it that.
You’ve heard it before. If it was a dude, this is how he started selling drugs, or got involved in a gang.
Here’s how one of the guys got into it
Harris:
I didn’t have the money to go back to school, so I was just working odd jobs. I kind of started getting in the streets in Dallas. I was staying in hotels. Motel 6es, two-and-a-half, three-star hotels. A lot of girls frequent those hotels. So they used to have clients that come to those hotels. But sometimes they get rowdy. They’re drunk, or they’re high.
The girls see me so much in the room that they start to friend me. And they ask me to have their back. Don’t let nobody hurt them while they do what they do. It just kinda started out like that.
So what this tells me is that these prostitutes need muscle. Two, they also were basically trying to get protection out of this man for free. These put upon women, who were basically too good to get a job at McDonald’s and wanted to live the high life – were still using the people around them. I do not want to imply that Harris was exploited – but that’s essentially what happened. They played on his “white knight” tendencies – but they didn’t realize what they were doing.
How did you recruit girls to sell sex?
If you meet a female, she don’t got no family, she don’t got nowhere to stay, but you got a little bit of money, you doing for her, you putting a roof over her head, feeding her … she going to end up trusting you, depending on you.
Y’all have some talks about the future, selling her the dream. It’s like, “Well, what are we going to do? What can we do? If you are really about this union, about this team, you are going to do this, it’s on you.”
Okay, this is stuff we know. The pimp puts the girl up, takes care of her life, and all she has to do is pay him back. And of course he has a solution.
The issue here is that he’s a factory owner in a 3rd world country. Any sweatshop job he offers will be “better” than subsistence farming. Just like any job that we take is better than living at home with the parents, or living on the streets. And if sex wasn’t so “sacred” – we could conceivably come up with a better system. In the West, societies want prostitutes to be small business persons. Any sort of oversight or management is EVIL. But when the business is not sex-work, regulation and management are the order of the day. Uber driving is prostituting your labor and capital – because the system isn’t set up to really match people with rides – the driver really doesn’t have any practical agency. Indeed, it’s not a spare/part time job – because the rest of the economy is forcing people into this kind of work… Should see parallels…
K.A continues
You’ve got some females, they run their own, they manage theyselves. But most, they want a daddy to feel secure, to feel like they got somebody watching out for them.
Are you starting to see it? In realistic terms, unless the guy has a camera in the room and a hand on the pistol – he can’t actually protect the girl from a customer. BUT, she needs to FEEL protected.
So here Harris goes into why a girl would choose to have a manager when she doesn’t need one to sell her goods
Harris: A lot of people always think that somebody’s making them do it or forcing them to do it. That’s not the case. Most cases, these girls are already doing it. They’re doing it on their own. It’s just, they hate to be by themselves, or they can’t take care of their money.
So now we got three reasons
- She needs to feel protected, like someone is looking out for her
- She can’t be by herself
- She can’t take care of her money
So when you’re chatting these chicks up – you understand that when you’re dealing with her, she needs to feel protected. You also understand that for reasons other than safety, she can’t be by herself. She’s a social animal (like all of us are). But when you give her a stack of cash – she doesn’t know how to save and invest. Again, you got all these boys in oilfield or working blue collar jobs making 100K+ (investment bankers) – and they never learn to live well below their means. They do not know how take 1,000 bucks and put it into something that’s going to make them money. (Hell, I could learn to be better at that)
On Sex
Johnson – If it’s a new girl trying to get on my team, I have sex with them first because I know I can get in they head. Once I make love to them, or what they think is love
It was like I mind-fucked ’em. I was in they head.
And then after that, they just start giving me whatever I need. They give me all they money. They cater to me, they spoiled me. All of them did this for me. And even though I know it was kind of wrong for putting them through that because they ain’t have to do it — but they chose to. I didn’t make them. I didn’t force them. It just ended up happening like that.
So She‘s able to get with the chick – not loving her, not particularly interested in the pleasure of sex – but her mind is on the money. This FEMALE pimp is using sex as a mental weapon.
That should stand out to you.
Can you do everything you need to do as a player – and then focus on something other than the pleasure of sex? The point of the PUA lifestyle, of Game, is about the hedonistic aspect of sex.
When you’re deep in them guts, all you’re thinking about is pleasure. It could be that a female pimp isn’t as vulnerable to the power of pussy.
What draws people to pimping?
K.A.: It’s like free money. You don’t gotta re-up. If you sell drugs, you gotta pay for the drugs at a wholesale and then go back and stack yo’ money. If you selling sex, that’s something that you don’t gotta re-up on.
This is what is known as the abundance mentality. Moreover, the idea is that there’s plenty of sex out there. There’s an infinite amount available.
The rest of the article is about the economics and the bad stuff associated with the trade. I highlighted the game aspects
-Archie
Nice write-up.
The takeaway here is women’s drive to associate, to benefit from the “power in numbers” of a group (even if it’s just one guy), and the lengths they’ll go to gain this. They’ll do crazy shit in the name of “the ends justify the means”. Beyond safety, she also uses the group to avoid social obscurity. Her reputation trumps all, it dictates her behavior, and letting her status slip by being outcast is social suicide.
A hot chick is an asset to a group (not inherently, but weak men make this so), so it’s not like the group loses by taking her in. They can use her hotness like currency to get weak men (in this case, johns) to do things that benefit the group (in this case, pay them).
AFC’s often complain that women they’re attracted to are always “in a relationship”. Imo they’re just biding their time with a passable guy until a better guy gives her attention. Like Tarzan not letting go of one vine until the next is secure, she’s just trying to keep from falling. But she’ll jump ship as fast as she can get away with (see: ASD), and Game is nothing if not teaching an AFC how to become that “Mr. Right Now” for her. “In a relationship” does not generally mean off-limits, in other words.
As an aside, 20-something women who slut around with alphas don’t aspire to settle with a beta. They can’t lock down an alpha, and have to settle to keep from being alone. “Pretty women die twice” indeed.
Solid post.
You should do more commentary stuff.
I’ve always been fascinated with that stuff.
I used to kick it at this afterhours spot my homie’s uncle ran and guys would come in with their chicks.
Of course we would chat them up and more or less they were pretty straightforward about it like the quotes above.
The girls too.
It was “mutually beneficial” for all involved. At least that’s how everyone saw it and talked about it.
Not to get too detached from the horror of sex work, but what’s the difference between a pimp and a house wife?
She sends her man out to make money – and basically takes care of the home front for him.
In exchange, he’s getting a bit of sex – but most of what the man gets is intangible and ephemeral.
She’s got him in a state where he’s constantly looking for her validation.
Used to be that he’d have to prove that he was a good earner before she really gave him any time of day.
I’ve said it before, you want to pick up state of the art game, grab you a copy of Cosmopolitan.
On the surface, it’s the worst magazine for women intellectually.
There’s a ton of coercion and deception tactics throughout.
“How do I get my boyfriend to do *fill in the blank*?” – is about emotional and situational manipulation.
There’s plenty to say about the horrors of married life too if people are to be believed. If you’ve got guys offing themselves after a bad breakup etc etc.
At base it’s all the same mental process. The same click whirr going on with a husband/wife as with bf/gf as with pimp/ho.
The thing is that most people don’t see it as manipulation.
Here a lot of working girls tell it, she needs that dude to make her life function. Whether that’s a strong hand or some other point of validation.
Of course he’s playing that up and helping her dig that hole.
Similar with a guy caught up in a bad relationship, he’s thinking it’s good for him.
A lot of dudes are happy in those kinds of situations. They make it work with some basic coping mechanisms and by surrounding themselves with other dues with similar stories.
Plus there is a whole social apparatus set up saying “do this not that” enforcing it.
Cosmo works in there somewhere.
The interesting thing to me is that chicks take a lot more cue from the Cosmo or other gossip rag than most guys think. They read that shit and follow it to the letter.
So what you’ve got is a lot of girls acting out scripts. Mostly cause they can’t (or won’t) figure it out for themselves.
All that embedded in larger social scripts.
That’s how most people live their day. A bunch of social cues on top of some basic biological firmware.
So then when you get some technique to get through the social script and more to the base programming, there is all sorts of rewiring that you can do.
It’s really hard to block out all that on a day to day basis cause it comes at us from all angles. If you’re the average dude with a wife, two kids and a mortgage, it gets basically impossible to reprogram with any other script than what the TV/Cosmo tells your wife to tell you.
People keep acting out those things until they crash and burn under their own weight.
Then guys have to go searching for other social scripts and wander in to the “how do I pick up girls” google searches.
That used to get you to some places where people were about evaluating what your programming is and then trying to leverage it to better things by hacking it back. End result of subverting the script enough times when out at the club. You realize that you can turn that back on yourself for results.
These days it seems like that search will get guys more to start acting out some KJ Klan stuff.
Very interesting article/breakdown, would enjoy more on this topic.
I have a saying. If you want to really turn a girl on/fuck her, you gotta get in her mind.
The mind is by far the biggest sexual organ.
Excellent post
This part keep bugging me each time I read about it:
“Johnson – If it’s a new girl trying to get on my team, I have sex with them first because I know I can get in they head. Once I make love to them, or what they think is love
It was like I mind-fucked ’em. I was in they head.”
I understand the “get into her head” but the “mind fuck” make me think there is another level to this…
What are your views on this part ?
Pimps will say that putting the D on the chick can change her mind.
Maybe.
But pimps also lose chicks.
When you ask why the chick left, the pimp response – If I knew, I would have fixed it.
Leaving my job is what I’m dealing with now. I don’t have it all planned out, but I’m starting to wonder if I’m just working at this place because of some false sense of security.
