Shakespeare. Motherfuckin Shakespeare. His Sonnet 130 (h/t @martel2112):</p>
<blockquote><p>My mistress&#8217; eyes are nothing like the sun;<br />
Coral is far more red than her lips&#8217; red;<br />
If snow be white, why then her breasts are dun;<br />
If hairs be wires, black wires grow on her head.<br />
I have seen roses damask&#8217;d, red and white,<br />
But no such roses see I in her cheeks;<br />
And in some perfumes is there more delight<br />
Than in the breath that from my mistress reeks.<br />
I love to hear her speak, yet well I know<br />
That music hath a far more pleasing sound;<br />
I grant I never saw a goddess go;<br />
My mistress, when she walks, treads on the ground:<br />
And yet, by heaven, I think my love as rare<br />
As any she belied with false compare.</p></blockquote>
<p><a href="http://www.shakespeare-online.com/sonnets/130detail.html" target="_blank">Here&#8217;s</a> an analysis of Sonnet 130. CH take: Sonnet 130 is basically one long anti-white knight/beta male pussy pedestal polisher neg. &#8220;Her eyes may not be pearls, especially the left one.&#8221;</p>
<p>There are innumerable examples of White European Game in Shakespeare&#8217;s works that resonate with today&#8217;s more scientific/field tested Game knowledge. Too many to list here. He should probably have his own &#8216;Great Men on Game&#8217; category. The man knew women, and knew how they loved.</p>
<p>The poets always precede the professors. Unless they&#8217;re slam poets, who precede only Culture Death.</p>
