Re: What does "being cool" in America mean exactly?
Being cool means that enough people like you that followers/sheep think joining in on liking you will make them likeable to others.
Being uncool means that enough people dislike you that followers/sheep think joining in on disliking you will make them likeable to others.
A cool person is someone who is completely comfortable following societal rules and thrives flawlessly in American culture. They are at ease blending into American society. To us, we find such people extremely fake, repulsive, and we would avoid them. To the average American, these people are heroes and role models.
You can also be cool if you're different, but then, it's largely dependent on luck. Afterall, Americans have a low tolerance for originality of any kind.

Re: What does "being cool" in America mean exactly?
It doesn't mean a damn thing. Because it means different things to different people - it's going to end up pissing certain people off, attracting others - and yet alienating others. It's not a good idea. Really being cool is believing in God, and in applying that knowledge. It's an inner thing that shows through you no matter what. It will attract girls to you - as well. It's the only real way in my opinion.
All these other ways have problems and setbacks - you have to sell your soul to do it, and ultimately not worth it; they are ultimately destructive. You will lose quality as a human man, and then girls won't want you - ironically. The more quality you have, the more girls you will attract. It's very basic.

Misery and happiness are only states of mind.

Let's face the facts. By us being at this very forum, we are considered uncool by American women, or at least attractive American women.

Re: What does "being cool" in America mean exactly?
In part it means not using antiquated boomer terms like "cool". The latest term I am aware of is "based" but that has probably been supplanted.
Re: What does "being cool" in America mean exactly?
Being "cool" means looking like Tom Brady, or his black, asian, hispanic equivalent. It's all about looks, today more than ever.

Re: What does "being cool" in America mean exactly?
Does that mean if I use "based" (synonym for cool) then I will look younger? Would foreign girls most likely understand "cool" or "based"?

Re: What does "being cool" in America mean exactly?
What does "based" mean? I never heard that as a substitute for cool. I only heard it used in the normal sense of the word, like "What are your beliefs based on?"
