This series fits into the category of "fundamental knowledge and understanding of the principles of pickup" as explained here: http://amanojack.your-japan.com/post/22/421

I'll stop here for now - enjoy the last part of the series on how to phsyically escalate. Remember, your questions determine what I cover so ask away about any fine points you want. Without further ado...

You've said you like to use massage. Where does that come in?

Massage is incredibly powerful in physical escalation, especially in combination with storytelling, patterning, earlobe stimulation (see below) or other techniques. Anyone who can massage well can get some uncannily fast lays this way! I use it as a fallback (albeit an extremely good one) when I can't get to the kiss fast enough. Massage is a whole big topic of its own, but note that it is not anchored touch really. It's just an incredible sexual accelerator (closing technique) that brazenly shortcuts through a good 2/3 of the seduction. Oh, and did I mention it can be used in the first 10 minutes sometimes? More on that another time.

What do I do if I make a mistake with the physical escalation and she reacts badly?

First of all, if you ever notice a bad reaction, no matter how slight, you know that your anchor is broken and you need to go back and re-establish it. If you're near the kiss, you can get away with slightly more, but at the very least back up several steps.

What's the Frog-On-A-Hotplate Principle?

If you put a frog on a hotplate and increase the heat slowly, apparently it'll never try to jump off until it's already fried. That's kind of grotesque, but the lesson is that people, too, can be induced into compliance with unexpected things if the escalation is gradual enough. There are examples of this everywhere in life.

It's important to note that GRADUAL does not need to mean SLOW. It can mean "going very quickly and diligently through many small steps." It can even mean skipping steps if the you can read the situation very well. It also means you never miss a chance to advance when it is clearly presented. In summary, skipping steps when you can't is bad, skipping steps when you can is good, advancing to the next step as soon as you get the chance is essential. This all depends of course on your ability to read the situation and her reactions. This comes partly from experience and partly from a correct understanding of women and seduction. The first part is your responsibility; the second part is mine.

A good example is the classic escalation point of "moving your hand up her leg." Guys'll lay a hand on her near the knee and slowly inch up. Now this an example of ONLY using the Frog-On-A-Hotplate Principle. We can do MUCH better.

For example, adding rhythmic motion advancing and retreating blurs the boundaries of where the hand is, making it harder for her to monitor its exact position and therefore obscuring its advancement. She wants it to move up, but she doesn't want to notice it moving up. It would be like if you cyclically increased the heat on the frog - then you could fry it faster than a steady heat increase because it would be used to small rapid heat increases happening, reliably followed by cooling.

And we of course are talking and making eye contact and doing other things to distract her attention from the touch escalation, at least until we hit the tipping point. The frog doesn't notice the heat building because it is distracted. Beyond that, we are anchoring it, like making the heat actually feel GOOD on the frog's feet, even when it would normally be objectionable or scary!

One more thing we can do, just purely with touching, is to mix it up. If she is not reacting well to you touching near her breasts, change course and work on her thighs near her pussy or take the "back door." This would be like, instead of raising the temperature on the hotplate, instead direct a blow dryer at the frog or feed it some tasty hot foodto raise its body temperature.

Any other important basic principles?

Touching makes her horny, which lets you do more, which makes her more horny, which lets you do more, which..... that's the basic idea. Remember this: If she is horny enough, she will do ANYTHING. This is getting into LMR, which is a big topic of it's own.

This is evident from the above, but to make it super-clear: avoid triggering her guard! You can only do incredible feats of physical escalation when the time windows are OPEN. Never try to do massive touching when the window is closed. Strike while the iron is hot, never while it's cold. Again, you can risk being sloppier toward the end near the tipping point.

In case this wasn't clear, the escalation is made of many small steps. At each step you evaluate her reaction and decide to advance or retreat at the next opportunity. If she ever reacts badly, or even starts to kind of maybe possibly show physical signs of discomfort, STOP ADVANCING and go back a few steps.

Push your boundaries and "go crazy" to test things, but ALWAYS monitor her reactions carefully and only "go crazy" one step at a time. Never push past her discomfort or resistance.

Fun fact: Effective earlobe stimulation is powerful as it can remove, during the duration of the sensation, her will to resist just about ANY touching ANYWHERE. Strange but true.

Reading all of this, it seems a far cry from the image I had of a super-caveman guy who touches like crazy...

It will actually sometimes look like that to an observer, but that's only because she has given you a lot of high points to work with and you have set your anchors properly. It's never indiscriminate - at first, especially, it is very measured and precise...in order so that it can get really crazy really fast!!!
