How pathetic is this?

What a sad, small, empty life he must lead. I almost feel sorry for him.

Hey, look, maybe he is useful after all!
I wonder if Doosh is like the guy in an old joke who thought “number of times he had sex that night” was just the number of thrusts he managed …
I should note that I’m not really in any danger of feeling sympathy for Roosh. When I say I *almost *feel sorry for him I mean, “I might feel sorry for someone who’s obviously so shallow and terrible at sex if this statement weren’t so horrifically misogynistic and also if the person making it wasn’t such a terrible rapey shithead.”
And how clueless is he to what his tweet reveals about how clearly terrible he must be in bed? Sure, novelty and the thrill of the chase can add a bit (or a lot) of excitement to the first time you have sex with someone new. But it’s also going to be a bit awkward, because you don’t know them or what they like just yet. The sex should get better as you get to know them better.
Unless, of course, you’re a selfish asshole who hates women and basically just uses them as a sort of living masturbatory aid.
I don’t think I can be bothered tracking him, but it would be interesting to know how he ends up. He’s what, 34/35? His libido is falling (he says, not me), he’s come to the end of his schtick, pretty much, and where does he go from here? When you’ve made a career out of publicly trolling women for sex, how do you bounce back from that?
DAVID WHY ARE YOU APOLOGIZING FOR ROOSH AND TRYING TO BE HIS BEST FRIEND?
Ha ha, just kidding, I think you were pretty clear that his shittiness takes precedence over anything else.
What a fantastic site, David. I’ve just discovered it, after being subjected, by accident, to waves of misogynist idiocy on Dalrock (Lord, have mercy…)
I am grateful to you for doing this tough job in such a skillful and enjoyable manner.
I think Roosh is trying to become more of a far right/misogynistic/antifeminist pontificator instead of a PUA dude. Hence all the energy he’s devoting to Return of Kings, and his not-very-subtle attempts to generate traffic through outrage.
I think Doosh wanted this to come off as a neg. “If you want me to think you’re worth more than 3 sexes you better try really hard ladies!” Ewwwww.
And speaking as a domme, it really sucks seeing so many legit creeps give us a bad name. Seeing someone enjoy being hurt is not even close to seeing someone actually* being hurt. One of those things is super hot, the other is disgusting. I don’t get how some people can’t tell the difference or don’t think it matters (or even worse, like the bad kind of hurting). Being dominant in bed and/or a sexual sadist =/= abusive rapist asshole. A scary amount of people need to realize that.
* “actually” isn’t a great word, because you do “actually” get hurt when you’re into that stuff, but I think everyone knows what I mean.

I don’t think that’s weird at all. Being submissive doesn’t mean you’re into pain, being dominant doesn’t mean you like to give pain, etc,. People assume it does, including other people into those things, but it totally doesn’t. Like, I’m both a domme and a bit of a sadist, but I can switch up the domme bit and enjoy being submissive sometimes. I have never, ever liked receiving pain though. If I’m going to be submissive and someone tries to hurt me, I’m done, fun is over. If anyone thinks that’s “unfair” of me or something they can fuck right off.
I think I do. The difference between someone who wants to be doing it, who’s enjoying the physical pain or the emotions or whatever combination, vs someone who does not want it, is in real distress or fear, not consensual and not part of any sort of mutual game.
I’ve said it before but it’s been good learning here about what BDSM should be and can be.
Yea that’s pretty much it Kitteh. Everything completely changes when it goes from “fun I want this” pain to “Jesus stop now I ate this” pain. I have no problem telling the difference and it really disturbs me seeing people use BDSM as an excuse for shitty behaviour. I could not imagine crossing someone’s lines and ignoring their signals to stop. I think some people think being dominant or a sadist means that by definition you have to. Those people need to go away.
*sexual sadist I should say, maybe? I don’t know how I feel about “sadist” being a word that can mean everything I’m saying it doesn’t/shouldn’t mean. That word kind of really sucks sometimes.
Ethical sadist, maybe? I always thought of sadism in the usual broad sense as taking pleasure in someone’s distress, whether in overtly sexual settings or not. The idea of consent almost nullifies the word in its usual usage.
I like that actually. I may have to steal it.
Go ahead, I stole it from someone here anyway! 😀
Just realized I wrote
I think I’m hungry.
I assumed the context was something like “Stop, stop, I just swallowed the ball gag!”
I was thinking “Food poisoning is no fun at all, even masochism has its limits!”
Both of those things being perfectly valid reasons to stop!
What PUAs mean when they talk about dominance and what responsible BSDM people mean when they talk about dominance are totally different things. I’m a domme, and I don’t recognize myself at all in these guys. I don’t view the humanity of my partners as an unfortunate obstacle standing between me and their genitalia.
Also seconding baileyrenee – the difference between someone who gets off on pain and is currently doing so and someone who does not get off on pain and/or really isn’t into what’s happening at any given moment is not hard to see. If for some reason you can’t see the difference then you have no business being a dom, or engaging in any sort of power exchange at all.
Ahah. I feel both pity, *AND* loathing At Roosh. Its such a sad pathetic excuse for a functioning adult that I cant help but think ‘poor little wretched thing.’ all the while, I look down on him with all the loathing I can muster, because a pathetic being he may be, he is about as unrepentant and uncaring about it as can be.
I suspect the magic number three, possibly in his sad little head, refers to three orifices. I mean, after you’ve been everywhere, why would you want to go there again?
I’ve read that John F Kennedy had a similar habit with his pickups. It’s a score-card thing, I think.
3 times 5 seconds is how much again?
What a douche. I’m surprised any woman would sleep with him once, let alone three times.
“I really think that PUAs are primarily concerned with other men, and just use women as a points system to prove how much better they are than other dudes.”
the CORE of the MRA mindset.
