Beware the fallacy of “Expertise”

Beware the fallacy of “Expertise”

I got an email recently that I think you’ll appreciate. Have a look at it, because it really illustrates an important understanding of how Alpha Men think versus other guys out there.

QUESTION:

I stumbled upon your Podcasts on Itunes and was interested in what you had to say.

I have seen other, what I would consider to be, scam websites that look much like yours. You have quotes from very strangely named people, Excell, who names their son Excell?

These are the first sources of my skepticism.

Second, who made you the expert on this stuff?

What kind of research, experiments, recorded observations, successes have you made that allows you to make these statements?

Do you have any educational background for this?

Or after 20 years did you just wake up one day and decide you had all the answers and were going to spread the “truth”?

Now that said, I think you bring up a lot of good points that make sense and are evolutionarily accurate.

For example, your talk about how traditionally there was not an issue of man attracting women because there were strong male role-models who acted like men, where as today media and political views have distorted our view of what a man should be.

I am interested in your products, but I believe that with anything you find on the internet there is a required amount of caution and skepticism.
