I'm no expert on the topic and won't claim to be, but from the perspective of a layperson (no pun intended), it's rare that I see that term used outside of the context of tantric sex or tantric sexual massage. Perhaps you could educate us, or point us to resources on non-sexual tantra?

I'm trying to spread some helpful ideas here, particularly for the guys who are struggling with attracting women.

In my experience, classes like this also result in changing the unconscious ways you move and carry yourself -- change in a way that the gender you are attracted to finds very appealing .

Has anybody here tried this sort of thing? What were your results?
You sure it might not be that you are attracting the wrong men or could use some work on your own lovemaking skills? You keep starting these threads about why men don't have skills and so on but my experience is that as long as she participates in the festivities it's going to work out just fine. The thing being I'm not especially skilled, I just pay attention and give her what she asks for which you should be running into regularly with your lovers. Unless of course you're doing something that is inhibiting their natural tendency to go faster slower softer harder etc upon request.

Agreed. It's not rocket science. I think she's suggesting that some of the male posters here who appear to be reaaalllly clueless about women might benefit from this. I see where she's coming from, but I think that's a little like trying to teach someone to run before they've learned to crawl. It's evident from most of their posts that these guys are lacking very basic interpersonal skills and communication skills. They need to start there if they're going to have any hope.

A brief Googling of "tantra exploitation" will reveal that most of what is taught in the West about Tantra is bastardized and skewed toward the sexual. I wouldn't go near one of those "courses" in a million years.

Well said. I had intended to continue my post saying much the same but I'm traveling and on my phone, hence the brevity. Further though I have the feeling that this isn't about young men who haven't hit their stride yet but about her. Logic dictates that if you think the problem is with everyone else it's really with you.

Meh, I doubt it. She strikes me as someone with a good love life, based on her posts. I think she's genuinely trying to help some of these guys, I just disagree with her about what they need, and I think it's going to fall on deaf ears with them, anyway.

To the former we will have to disagree, just a few threads down is her thread describing how rare good lovers are stating what she thinks others need to do to fix it. I'm not buying it, if there is a problem everywhere you go you are the problem. To the latter, agreed.

Yeah, you're probably right.

It's just hard to see them going around and around, every day/week/month here the same as the last, telling each other that it's completely hopeless, no woman will ever want them and all women are evil anyway.

I want to do something to help, y'know?

In my home state, for starters. It's easy to Google. I think I came across some in CA that were for couples, too. I haven't seen any that aren't about sex.
