Simple idea. Value proposition attacks the core of human nature, our wants and needs. Unsure atm of whether a StackOverflow-type site or the functionalities of HN would best address this community. Would you use such a service?
Ask HN: A StackOverFlow or HN for relationships/PUA material. Would you use it?

#3I'm sorry. I'm not understanding what your service would do. What would it do?

#4A website with similar interface to SO or Quora would be very useful.

#5No, I wouldn't use it.
Have you seen the rubbish on relationships on Yahoo Answers?! Sheesh, there's some special kind of crazy people on there.

Nice, but it's still not nearly as populated as these forums: http://social-masters.com/blog/pua-forum.
The fact that there are 56 heavily-populated PUA forums deserves some attention. The fact that forums are still used deserves attention. There should be a better platform to address questions, share stories, and share links.

What's wrong with forums?
For a community driven mainly by external content, something like HN/Reddit makes sense - the links are the focus.
For a community driven mainly by the visitors' experiences and opinions, a forum is still a remarkably versatile and useful tool.
StackOverflow... StackOverflow is built around factual answers to exact questions, rather than open-ended discussion.

Good point. I still use forums.
Nevertheless, you don't see the PUA community frequenting reddit.com/seduction. Don't know the % of them who actually know what Reddit is. I don't know of any one true "base," for lack of a better word, to find good PUA content (ex: TechMeme for tech news).
