This is an excellent article that can help explain why it has become so difficult for beta men to find mates, while women with similar problems do not encounter the same level of difficulty in the mating game.

Hmm. The site wouldn't work for me but the "Misandry" in the title is already suspect to me. If this is about more passive people of both genders and how they differ in their success at dating... I do imagine that passive girls would have an advantage in a culture where guys are expected to take the initiative, but I'm not sure that's even the case. I don't know enough about how this all plays out in real life for most people to speak accurately about it. In any case, I am just wondering how misandry fits into this.

I think men who harbor such persecution complexes aren't beta men. Most beta men, aka average guys, are married or in some type of relationship. These men are just epsilon men by their own doing, who like to think they are beta men.

I saw a lot of Pick Up Artist B.S. in the article.

Woman hating much?

Quote:
1) People married at the age of 20, and usually died by the age of 50. People were virgins at marriage, and women spent their 20s tending to 3 or more children. The wife retained her beauty 15 years into the marriage, and the lack of processed junk food kept her slim even after that. This is an entirely different psychological foundation than the present urban feminist norm of a woman marrying at the age of 34 after having had 10 or more prior sexual relationships, who then promptly emerges from her svelte chrysalis in an event that can best be described as a fatocalypse.


It is hard to take an article seriously which complains of women who marry later turning into a "fatocalypse". Seems that the male that wrote this only is interested in the looks of a female.

Quote:
1) The Venusian Arts : Learning the truth about how the female mind works is a precious and transcendant body of knowledge for any man. Whether he uses it to become a fully immersed pick-up artist, to create a soulmate bond in a lifelong monogamous marriage, or even to engage in only infrequent yet efficient trysts with women, a man is free from the crushing burdens that uninitiated beta men are capitulating under.

When a man learns that there is no reason for him to buy a $50,000 car, $20,000 ring, $50,000 bridezilla festival, overpriced house contrary to any logical financial analysis, or a divorce lawyer to save him from ruin even though he was the victim of spousal abuse, there is no greater feeling of liberation and jubilation, equating to a windfall of $2 Million for all objective and subjective purposes. When a man realizes that reducing his income by half will now have little detriment to his sexual prospects, he can downsize to an easier job with a shorter commute and lower stress. When a man learns that appeasing a woman is the exact opposite of what he should be doing during the process of romancing and seducing her, that entire humiliating gauntlet of rituals can be jettisoned.

The ecstasy of two or even three concurrent relationships with women of substantially above average beauty are quite attainable to a man who has scaled the summit, which further deprives the hapless betas (again, male attractiveness to women is zero-sum in a way that female attractiveness to men is not). Thus, while 80% of men have no intellectual capacity to grasp and master the Venusian Arts, if the number of solid practitioners even begins to approach 20%, multiple parasitic beasts, from female moochers to the tax-swilling state to the corrupt real-estate and divorce lawyer industries, can be effectively starved.


I can sum it up for you in 3 words, Hale_Bopp: Sexist Horse Poop.

Why am I not surprised to see "The Sixteen Commandments of Poon" as number 4 on his "Required Reading" list?

Calling out pathetic little boys on their misinformed, pigheaded sexist crap =/= misandry.

Despite the fact that it was a right wing rant, I actually made it as far at the part where George Sodini was glorified. :?

Is re-arranging your poo into letters on a peice of toilet paper legible and credible enough to be published these days?

Apparently it warrants admission into an art museum if you are the right person.

He lost me in the first sentence, before women were even mentioned, when he said that socialism and tyranny were malignant in the U.S. That's the opening line of most anti-Obama screeds so I just skimmed a bit to see if it was anti-Obama or anti-women. The latter. (I guess if it was the anti-Obama variety it would be in PPR rather than L&D, but the opening sentence would be the same.)

I went straight to the comment section. That's the best part of any crap article. And it's the best part of this one,too. It was interesting to see where the people who agreed with most of what he said would differ. One guy, a very conservative traditionalist, pointed out that you can't talk about how everything went to heck when people moved away from virgin-at-wedding, youthful marriage with no divorce allowed and then propose PUA/the Game manipulation as a solution. If you think things were better when women had sex only with their husband, whom they married young, then it is rather hypocritical to mourn the loss of this while at the same time trying to help guys get women into bed without marrying them.

There were other interesting comments too. It is poop. Definately. There are two interesting things about poop, both the literary and the literal. 1)you can tell what somebody has consumed by examining their poop- that's true here too. 2)You can tell things about the audience by how they react to the poop. Do they hold their nose and walk away from it? Try to clean it up? Regard it as having it's uses, such as fertilizer?

Ignore the article. Go to the comments. That's the real meat.
