Peacocking

Peacocking

Peacocking is the use of attention-getting clothes to amplify your responses in the field. If you are peacocked, girls will look at you more often, and guys will make sniggering comments. This means that there will be more social pressure on you than you would normally experience.
It is a demonstration of higher value when people perceive that you are accustomed to this social pressure and otherwise unaffected by it. (In other words, when people see that you are congruent with your image)

This congruence is the critical point. A man with a top hat and a feather boa, with two women on his arms and surrounded by laughing friends, looks like the man. Everyone in the room will notice him and women will whisper to one another that they want to be introduced to him. But the same man sitting by himself in the corner could end up looking like a social reject.

Try wearing at least one item that is cool and attention getting. It may be used as a lock-in prop as well as allows women to make a comment, good or bad, if they wish to open or sustain a conversation with you.
For example, one thing she might so if you are talking to her and she senses that the conversation is winding down, she may suddenly say, Oh that’s a cool necklace. This is her way of continuing the interaction in a perfectly reasonable way, while reserving some element of plausible deniability.
On more than one occasion Mystery has had women walk up to him and tell him that they hate his goggles. He would reply, No you don’t, you’re attracted to me.

This is why it’s important that the prop be genuinely cool. Otherwise she would look like a try-hard for commenting on it and she’ll lose the courage to do so. (Incidentally you also look like a try hard every time you tell a girl how cool her necklace is)
