People criticize it because it can be manipulative. But the success of PUA tells me that people seem to be really interested in some kind of step-by-step "system" for dealing with people. I think that's why the book "How To Win Friends and Influence People" is still popular after many years. It gives you concrete steps to take. Edit/clarification: I don't particularly think the PUA thing is positive - I wish there was a positive, modern version of PUA that omitted the manipulative aspects. Maybe there is and I don't know it. (There probably is...)
