I just want to add my experience is that “Maybe I get off the EA Forum, go outside and tell that cute girl I pass every day all about Peter Singer’s drowning child thought experiment” has worked really well for me so far.
Not sure what you mean… Number of long-term relationships? Number of dates? Number of times I’ve talked with a cute non-EA girl about EA and perceived it as going well? Regardless not sure I’d be comfortable revealing that info in public.
I meant number of LTRs you tried that strategy with and it working. In my head I was imagining this happening once, so I was amused at the idea of its generalizability! Totally understand your unwillingness to share that information in public!
The value of n is so high that Peter wouldn’t want to embarrass the rest of us with how smooth he is by disclosing that information. Yet I’ve got access to it! It’s a well-kept secret that 8% of all historical growth of the EA movement is due to Peter bringing cute girls into the movement by way of telling all of them he passes by about the thought experiment about the drowning child[citation needed].
