SWM you are a smart guy I must say from reading your posts. I also was in network marketing for a month. Right away I saw the money was get a little ways up and don't tell anyone how much profit you are really making. But act big and make all the money selling tapes and shit like that.
I think many are wrong to say profits will make it spread to everyone. I love capitalism, I love a profit based system, but I also know there are limits to where it can be beneficial. So far bodybuilding I've gained 125+ pounds, mainly muscle and lean body mass, but also some fat. I started 145 pounds and about 3-4 years later I am 270-275 now.
I experimented with many things and read about many things. One thing I realized was that the muscle magazines were owned by the supplement companies, who are owned by the major american food manufacturers. What makes more sense for profit, making a bar of proteins and fats that costs 1$ to make, and selling it for 3$, or putting in a bunch of carb shit, that costs 15 cents to make, and selling it for 3$. To make the equivilant return on investment you'd have to charge 20$ or more for the fat/protein bars, which no one will pay.
Also they sell you every supplement under the moon, which none of them do anything. I see people buying partial amino acids and shit, well you get all the amino acids when you eat meat. Spend your money eating meat and cheese and milk and those type of things.
In penis enlargement the market is already being taken over by profiteers. They sell you sawdust for 50$ a month, that you have to pay for the rest of your life. Or they butcher your penis and inject fucking fat into it, for 15,000 dollars. Dld sells this information for 50$, even assuming everyone is honest and doesn't just copy the information, a one time shot of 50$ will not make a large company or more then a few people wealthy. (btw when I get a credit card I will join this site, as I want to see dld's routines and ask him questions.) I think dld is an open minded guy which allows him to learn and grow, and in addition he has a passion for npe.. a powerful combination.
Waxn who is a successful bodybuilder I know what you are saying however I mainly disagree with your conclusions. I do however agree with some points you made. In my city of 300,00 there is about 40-100 people who got big from bodybuilding. And we are living it up. And this is commonly available research that doctos approve of, well some. Half the people I talk to tell me bodybuilding doesn't work either. Or you get big muscles but not stronger, or I don't wana get to big, I like being a pinner little loser. I tell people how I did it, and am doing it, and they won't listen they just tell me, no fats will make you fat, or no you have to work out 6 days per week like it says in this sili magazine. I don't ever talk to normal people about this anymore, I just talk to hardcore bodybuilders who are open minded(redundant point), who want to be insane.
Even if the average person did believe these would work, which they never will. As I said perceptions are almost impossible to overcome, profiteers benefit from the current situation, our society fears masculinity and will try to deny it, there are many factors. I've outright told friends about pe, friends that feel small, and they dont' come here.
But even if they believed somehow, you still have to do the work. And as you all know its not 10 minutes a day, its 30-90 minutes a day, which the average person will not be able to do. They might do it for a few days, then they will be off with their friends, or watching tv. That is human nature. We dream but only the great people, which are always few, are willing to do.
I also disagree with your statement that pe isn't hard to do. When I work out my hands are aching badly, I am watching the clock praying that minute is going to switch over so one of my mid workout breaks can start. I have to have a water bottle beside me and the window open because I get so hot and start sweating so bad.
What I do agree on is that if it became widely known, which it won't for at least a generation, you might see some people actualy try it out and gain a .25 in both measurments. But they will give it up.
At the gym we always laugh at new years. Every January 1st a bunch of people show up and buy 2 year memberships. They see us big guys in the gym and they pay the big bucks, which allows us to work out for like 20 dollars a month if you are 'gold' member. They go to the supplement store and buy 300-500$ worth of sawdust. They workout once, a few workout twice, one year I saw a guy last 3 workouts. Then they are gone and NEVER return. They can't get out of the contract either mwahaha.
Just this year I saw many newbs come in on january 1st, I like to go this day and scope out the chicks that come in. Not a single one of them was there by January 8th. I disagree with waxn that there is no correlation between the gym or pe.
So the two fold problem remains, they dont' want to put any effort in, and even if they did there is 100's of times more misinformation then information so they'd fail anyways. Only people who can put the time in and read through large amounts of material AND have the intelligence to come to conclusions on the information AND are willing to believe not commonly accepted thinking AND have the personalities where they can devote themselves to brutal day after day abuse for their goal AND are willing to change what they are doing and their thinking as they go along, will see dramatic results.
Seriously we are talking about out of a world population of 6 billion about 20-30 people. Which is about how many people have gotten dramatic results from pe, that wasn't passed down as a family secret.
