The 1990s also saw the rise of the
PUA scene! As the internet USENET group Alt.Seduction.Fast was founded in 1994 by a student of Ross Jeffries. USENET groups were the forerunner to website forums like this one. USENET developed from email in 1980. And it is still around but you need either an email programme to access them or a special USENET client programme. At the end of the 1990s the internet went mainstream especially the world wide web. By late 1999 most people had an email address and were regular internet users.
