Pity poor Roosh! It seems like only yesterday the alleged pickup artist and semi-ironic rape legalization proponent was basking in a worldwide wave of adulation hatred as he trotted around a portion of the globe on his “Roosh World Tour,” bringing his message of “neomasculinity” to his small but fervent fanbase and generating headlines at every stop.
Three years on, Roosh is decidedly old news; traffic on his websites has fallen and his attempts to provoke the media beast have been generally ignored — and he has dropped his pickup artist schtick almost entirely, instead posting grouchy post after post lamenting what he sees as the terribleness of modern women and his inability to land himself a sweet virginal hottie wife.
Yes, the dude who won fame teaching men such innovative “pickup” techniques as following drunk women home from bars and never telling them your real name is angry that evil “Chads” are bogarting all the women.
It seems, in other words, that this former PUA has now become something of an incel.
In a recent blog post with the petulant title “All That’s Left For Normal Men Are Rotten Women,” Roosh blames evil alpha males for ruining women for ordinary guys like himself. Sounding more than a little like a commenter from some egregious incel forum, he complains that “the most attractive women are being taken out of circulation to either join alpha male harems or participate in degenerate lifestyle choices,” rendering it nearly impossible for most men to snag themselves “a mentally stable and cute woman in her prime.”
“In the modern Western world,” he grouses,
a single famous man can command the sexual attentions of dozens—if not thousands—of women in their sexual prime, spoiling these women for normal men who don’t have the ability to tingle their vaginas with the same intensity.
It’s a little weird to see a guy who once made a living off his reputation as a primo lady-killer seemingly admit straight up that he can’t “tingle … vaginas” to save his life.
How many actors, musicians, and sports athletes are trying to plow through as much prime pussy as possible? How many Hollywood directors and music producers are leveraging their positions for sexual gain? How many club owners, restaurateurs, Arab sheikhs, and politicians are doing the same? Each one is taking way more beautiful women out of circulation than men like my grandfather [who Roosh says had three wives], all while elevating their standards to such an extent that no average man can ever gain their love, let alone two hours—or even two minutes–of their uninterrupted attention.
Two minutes? Is Roosh confessing that he’s a two-minute man? Well, as Jemaine Clement of The Flight of the Conchords once famously sang, “two minutes in heaven is better than one minute in heaven.” Except he was joking.
We also have to account for female lifestyle choices that are designed to delay or prevent pair bonding and marriage. The biggest is career. Most girls, while embarking on a career, balance out the boredom of working a meaningless job by hopping on the cock carousel and banging at least a few men every year.
He’s actually angry at the very notion that a women might have sex with … more than one or two men over the course of a year?
By the time a girl hits 25 years old, any man who meets her will have to deal with a walk-in closet of emotional issues and hang-ups from being pumped and dumped as much as a 1930’s brothel whore.
Apparently brothels in the 1930s weren’t exactly doing land-office business, if the women working there only had two or three customers a year.
Then there is the Instagram and Facebook lifestyle that creates crippling dopamine addiction, which causes a girl to only be satisfied if dozens of men are actively thirsting for her every day. I estimate that if a girl has over 500 followers on Instagram, she is so used to attention from throngs of men that the love of one man cannot possibly satisfy her.
Apparently Roosh can’t compete with Instagram “likes.”
We must also throw in the growing “travel blogger” lifestyle where, instead of using only her body to get attention, a girl uses pictures and video from exotic locations to enhance her beauty.
I’m beginning to suspect that Roosh spends most of his time following Instagram models and muttering angrily to himself each time one of them gives him a boner.
Other girls, with nothing substantial to offer the world, decide to showcase pictures of pets or their tasty overpriced meals, but even that puts them on a dopamine loop that ruins their future interactions with men.
Now he’s mad at women who post pics of their fucking DOGS or the sandwich they had for lunch? Honestly, dude, this is getting embarrassing.
Roosh goes on to complain about “sugar babies” and porn stars, then declares:
The Western world is a sinkhole for women. The prettiest of the bunch fall into the hole and get spit out years later an entitled #MeToo hag who can never be happy, making the Islamic four-wive rule seem downright egalitarian.
Yes, he said “entitled #MeToo hag.” He evidently thinks that women who are raped and/or sexually harassed are somehow … privileged.
The sad truth is that if you meet an attractive girl today, she was pumped and dumped by numerous sexy men, prefers to nurture her career than children, is addicted to attention via the internet, and has participated in some kind of scheme to exchange social status or cash for her pussy. She’s more than suitable for a bit of fun, but would it be wise to seek a relationship with her?
Yes, those lady grapes are definitely sour.
But take heart, ladies! Roosh is still a romantic at heart, and would be happy to settle for one of you!
Even with the obesity and short-hair epidemic, I still see a bountiful supply of cute girls I would happily reproduce with.
Great news for all human females!
I would love them, let them caress my beard, and lay my seed deep within their vaginal guts …
You would do WHAT in their WHATS!? Ewwwww.
… but the problem is that those guts are not for me—they are for the Chads who would never marry her, the beta orbiters who await her newest selfie as if it were a source of food, or the rich and lonely men who would sponsor her for thousands of dollars a month.
Dude, you’re honestly saying that you can’t compete with a woman’s “beta orbiters?” I thought pickup artists were supposed to be the alphas every woman years for.
They’re taking her out of circulation at the time I want her most, and by the time they are done with her, I no longer want her.
I’m pretty sure the feeling is mutual.
I guess I’ll try to weasel in a bang or two when she is not yet fully degraded, and enjoy the fleeting pleasure that comes from it as much as I can.
You’ll :try to weasel in a bang or two?” Dude, you give weasels a bad name.
All that whining and he didn’t even get to how his mother is beginning to talk about how he needs to either pay rent or move out of her basement.
I am fully grossed out.
But I do have a weird obsession with reading “Mystery” s Facebook. He posts normal pickup artist trash, but then late at night will occasionally post something about how he hasn’t seen his kids in years or how empty he feels his life is. It’s this utterly compelling dichotomy.
Called it.
Nobody in their sound mind could possibly imagine that the tactics this guy claims to employ would seem attractive to any woman not suffering from Stockholm’s syndrome.
I’m not the least bit surprised that he might actually just be an incel posing for online attention (oh the irony! Projection sure seems to be a big thing on the Right).
There really is absolutely no guy out there who would even bring himself to conceive that catcalling and harassing women in public would ever attract anyone, ever. No, all of that is just merely performative and to be done in front of other men, just to display “power” and show them who’s the most “macho”.
Is is weird that when I read the phrase “rotten women” I think of fujoshi?
E: Natalie Wynn and Hbomberguy have good takes on how Roosh V and his fellow PUAs’ obsession with sleeping with as many women as possible seems like a pathological compulsion – they don’t seem to like having sex, but they do it anyway.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_pEfhgG3Ocw&t=1574s
Okay, I can’t stand it. I’m simultaneously trying to not laugh and not vomit. “Lay my seed deep within their vaginal guts”? I just… words fail me.
So let me see if I understand. Roosh spent his 20s and early 30s fucking as many women as possible and publishing tips for other men that he promised would let them do the same. And yet, in his article, he says that women with careers who slept with a few guys a year in their early 20s are going to have a bunch of issues by 25 from being treated like sex workers by guys like him.
So…. it seems he’s saying that past Roosh is the reason that present Roosh can’t find a woman willing to settle down with him. I’m pretty sure his personality has a lot more to do with that than any of the reasons he lists in his little rant, but it’s still entertaining that he doesn’t seem to notice the logical inconsistency.
Ugh, follow this link instead of that second one if you want to start at the beginning of Hbomb’s video
“If she can be happy without me, then how will I manipulate her into being my slave?”

Bleurgh, the thought of touching Roosh’s beard made my uterus shrivel up into a raisin. Not even gonna get into the rest of that sentence.
“The most attractive women are being taken out of circulation to either join alpha male harems…”
But when do *I* get to be in the alpha male harem? That sounds great! 🙁
I demand one hot dude occasionally and the helpful companionship of several women!
I think the issue of rich men, powerful men, men with high social status, etc. has Ben around a while, if Doosh is feeling pressure from that, it’s because HE has fallen off his “game”.
I grew up in the 60’s (to whatever extent I did actually grow up…), and, according to “popular wisdom, which I’m sure is the source for ALL of Goosh’s wisdom, women have been enjoying sexual relationships with numerous partners of many genders since roughly mid-February of the Summer of Love… so, again, if Foosh is feeling heat from THAT direction, it’s because he’s fallen off his game.
I’m thinkin’ if Moosh ever HAD game, hes hung it up.
This sad, sad post isn’t remotely surprising. It’s been coming to this for years. Ever since that time he complained that he had to wipe his ass in order to not repulse women with his stench.
I do think, however that among US manospherians, the despair has intensified over the past couple of years. They were really convinced that Trump’s victory would usher in this whole new era of male supremacy and feeeeemaaaales would finally realize once and for all that we are inferior and have a duty to be submissive and beautiful for the benefit of angry misogynists with nothing to offer a potential sexual and/or romantic partner. Much to their chagrin, women reacted to President Pussy Grabber with not just fear, but anger. Now women are angrier, more politically active, and more feminist than ever. Not only that, we refuse to date Trump fans. We’ve run away from the arms of the alt-righters and MRA, not into them. They’re starting to realize that they were wrong. Women aren’t naturally submissive and anti-feminist. We can’t be bullied into giving them blowjobs and making them sandwiches. The white male supremacist revolution may have come in terms of government policy, but it never arrived in their bedrooms. So what’s a manospherian to do? Whine on the internet, watch Jordan Peterson videos and pray for sexbots, I guess.
@WWTH
I wouldn’t give them that much credit. I think, if anything it’s far more insidious and dangerous than that. They are entirely aware that Trump didn’t usher in the changes that they wanted, but he has ushered in a climate in which it is totally okay to fight for the disenfranchisement of women and other social minorities.
And unfortunately that’s what they’re doing. At the policy level, they continue to set back the clock by about 60-70 years and putting people in positions of power, who will block any attempts at undoing that damage.
I think all the rants and belligerent posts are more about kindling the fire of the reactionary movement. Despite them losing tremendous ground in the cultural war, they are most certainly winning the war regarding power dynamics. So either the Democrats need a landslide victory (and a fucking backbone) to undo this damage, or it might have to be undone through a revolution.
PD: props on that Maria la del Barrio gif. Incidentally, Talia starred on two other soap operas with the theme of from rags to riches (Maria Mercedes and Marimar).
uh, é cruel. Roosh V virou incel
uh, é cruel. Roosh V virou incel
(it’s cruel. Roosh V became incel)
Yanno, this plus “out of circulation” plus “emotional hangups” sounds suspiciously like “I don’t want to put up with all the ’emotional hangups’ of someone who’s been sexually assaulted”
More victim blaming, wheeeeeeee
AHA I saw this mess the other day! I think I saw it repeated by the red pillers, glad to see you found it, D 😀
While I’m here, thanks to all on the other recent thread about the home made pizza advice! I am going to try it.
In the mean time I was too lazy to cook and managed to improve two crappy pizzas by cramming them together! Edwardo just topped Paul Newman (‘s Own pizza).
Cramming these men (‘s pizzas) together made the end result slightly more choke down able.
Evil wimmins are erasing the mens and giving pizzas teh ghey!
Just trying to do my small part to further the Global Gynocracy 🙂
He sounds sort of like he always has, in a weird way, just from the other side. The PUA guys always go off the rails like this as they age if they stay in the philosophy, because they thoroughly age out of the only cohort of women this manipulation works on – the inexperienced. Creepy older dude is enough of a trope that even those without poor experiences get a warning that something dodgy is up.
Women his own age would never fall for this, but he’s already removed them anyway because of his obsession with being owed a young virgin.
@Z&T:
It’s possible to make a mediocre pizza by using a large flour tortilla as the crust. I’ve done it, in a pinch, with mozzarella, bottled pizza sauce or even salsa, and then just improvising with other toppings…smoked ham, leftover bacon, etc. Plus, a drizzle of olive oil.
For me, even mediocre pizza is worthwhile.
RE: Roosh. Who the hell with an internet connection is going to have anything to do with him? I’ve read some stuff of his, saying he’s ready to settle down with a submissive “girl” – notice he never uses the word “woman” – and have kids. I very much hope this never, ever happens.
Unrelated, but I’ve created a Gravatar, and I’m trying to get it to show up.
@ MrsObedMarsh
By sheer coincidence, I watched that video for the first time yesterday, so my first thought on David’s title was “…he didn’t already?”

Great Depression, y’know. Hit small businesses hard. That’s why he specifically nominated the 30s, rather than more recent, and presumably more active, brothels.
Some cheese to go with Roosh’s whine

Such a cute kitty
Dormousing It,
Looks like you’re a fellow servant of a calico kitty?
