And especially as we remember that it’s the women who usually have (or make for themselves) the more stringent standard for household cleanliness and order in a relationship. Of course largely stemming from the need to impress the local matrix of female friends, as a part of the ongoing nesting arms race.

I doubt that without this social element the need to keep up household appearances (in many ways) would be quite so manifested. Which of course, at the same time, is one more a shaming element against men, even though as a single carousel-rider she may have had a similarly under-groomed household…

Thomas Gray:
It is something much simpler, it is a woman’s desparate attempt at lowering her buying temperature.

Well, there’s a line you wouldn’t have seen in Ebert’s reviews for sure. Maybe there’s a call for red pill movie reviews — “let´s see, what he did wrong there was…”

First, it is an ESSENTIAL daily read and also well worth the time going back and reading almost every post since the beginning, ESPECIALLY the key classic and most relevant posts (some indicated on the blog page, and others constantly re-linked by the Heartiste gang themselves. It’s not one dude, by the way, it’s several who write in the same style; but there is One True Boss who runs the show with unswerving authority.)

Unfortunately, although you will see comments by readers, the Chateau is not a discussion forum. Heartiste filters, deletes, and bans without warning or explanation, and the comment section is managed solely for the purpose of providing further entertainment to the hosts. Intelligently expressed disagreement will not get through unless it is silly at bottom and so does not really threaten the hosts (see for example the comments of “King A/Matt”). I suspect that they have taken on this ‘Dark Triad’ role a little too zealously, and so believe that this childish behavior reinforces their general attractiveness to women. Perhaps it does!

Nobody’s perfect. Heartiste is not a real man in the fullest sense, but as a teller of vital truths about men and women, no one can stand beside him.

– HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA YOU ARE SO CAUGHT UP IN YOUR RIDICULOUS BELIEFS THAT YOU ARE GETTING OFF ON THE IDEA THAT YOU ARE GAMING YOUR WIFE??????? WHOOOAAAAHHHH TEACH ME, BUDDY, TEACH MEEEEE!!!! DID YOU USE PUSH PULL TO GET HER TO GIVE YOU HEAD?

I’m not exactly sure what you mean by “experience”, but there’s a ton of insight here on how the world actually works.

What I did when I discovered Rational Male is I scrolled through the archives based on the topic heading. Pick what grabs you, scroll through, and then pick another topic. Posts repeat, obviously, but the second time through, you can just skim.

So, you can absorb the info and share it if you want to yourself, or you can refer the others to either the specific posts you find most relevant, or just give them the address to the whole site.

Roissy is also a good intro, but he can seem a bit harsh to the unitiated. Rollo is more about the deeper foundations and Roissy more about the applications, but they complement each other well.

Hope that helps.
