The Best Of The Rational Male – Year 5

girl-and-devil-1

Well another year has come and gone. I generally view the end of August as my year marker for The Rational Male. I didn’t add a page for year 4 since I’m not sure I want to clutter up the top of my blog layout with links pages, but I may yet combine the best of years 4 and 5 into one page.

A lot has happened in this span, I began the Red Pill Monthly talks with Niko Chosky. I still think I sound like a nasally teenager when I hear my voice, but the feedback has been nothing short of amazing on these so I believe we’ll continue with them for the foreseeable future.

Right after my year 4 best-of I did my first liv appearance in Vegas with Christian, Goldmund and Tanner Guzy at The Man in Demand Conference. I’ve discussed doing another one with Christian McQueen and we’re looking into venues for 2017. This was just an overwhelming experience to meet up with my readers in person, do the talk and have dinner at Sinatra’s. This was the first time for me to do an on premise event and I’d be lying if I said I wasn’t a nervous wreck the night before, but every guy in attendance just impressed me to no end and the whole thing was something I’ll remember for the rest of my life.

I went through the process of having the audio mastered (courtesy of Sam Botta) to make it available via DigiRAMP for anyone to get a hold of now too.

Probably the biggest TRM news of 2016 was the release of the audio book of The Rational Male. It was a long time coming, but I think well worth the wait. I’ve come to believe that a book needs a time to mature into what its overall reception will be. The Rational Male book continues to sell very well and my focus has always been on emphasizing the printed book above all else since I feel that medium is the best to spark discussions and pass along to men who need it at the right time. That said, Sam Botta convinced me that men listen to books more than they read them so I thought the time was right and he’d just gotten back in the saddle so to speak after his debilitation in a hit & run car incident.

The book has exceeded any expectation I ever had for it and I still receive emails and tweets about how it’s changed men’s lives in the best possible way. The Rational Male, Preventive Medicine is also doing far better than I’d hoped if not eclipsing the first book. Sam and I are now in the process of doing the audio for TRMPM and I expect it will go live in early 2017.

The blog traffic continues to grow too.

stats

As most readers know, I do very little self-promotion for TRM and I only advertise the book on the TRP reddit forum and posting occasional Amazon reviews on Twitter. I always want the the message of this blog and my work to be relayed by the men who read and contribute to it. I’m a believer in the bottom up plan for improving men’s lives and ultimately the social order we find ourselves. I’m glad to see men passing on what they learn here. I’m happy to be able to focus on my ideas and have men spread the word for me.

I’ve done art direction and brand management for over two decades now. It’s what I do for a living so it wouldn’t be a stretch for me to convert TRM into a similar commercial success, but that’s never been my goal. From the outset I wanted to just do what I do and talk about the ideas I’ve come to or the dots I’ve connected. That isn’t to say I don’t appreciate making a little money from it, but I’ll never compromise my message to sell more books or start a Patreon site.

I’ve had guys tell me I should quit my day job and write full time, but I’ve never really needed to be an author for my livelihood. I do quite well for myself and not being beholden to being an official author allows me the freedom to do what I do without the concern of having to write ‘for’ anyone. I know there are guys whose schtick is to treat their writing like a product and they tell you to write for what your audience wants to read, but I think this inherently compromises the authenticity of the real message.

My goal isn’t to sell books, it’s to genuinely change men’s lives for the better with the tools and truths I present in my work. The Rational Male isn’t a ‘product’ for salesmen to sell, it’s a collection of ideas that, really, we’re all responsible for authorship of. Ideas are a hard thing to suppress, and they last far longer than the men who conceived them.

Honestly, when I started this blog back in 2011 I never imagined it would grow into what it’s become today. I have some plans now to do a site redesign. I’ve never really focused on the look of the blog, I just poured myself into its content, but I think after 5 years I’ll freshen the look up soon. I’m also in the middle of the first round of edits for my third book, the working title being The Rational Male, The Red Pill. That may change, but the primary focus will be on defining what the Red Pill is from an intersexual dynamics perspective. As a matter of policy I generally refrain from being too prescriptive for individual men to apply their Red Pill awareness, but in the new book I’ll break this rule and provide some generally applicable ways to live in a Red Pill paradigm.

Red Pill parenting and family interactions in a feminine-primary social order will feature prominently. Yes, it will include selections from the blog again, but with each I’ve added what I believe are general solutions to Red Pill problems, plus more new content.

Well, that’s it. I continue to be humbled by the response and reception of The Rational Male and I want to extend my true gratitude for everyone’s input, participation, reading my ideas and helping me do what I do – even the critics and detractors make me a better Red Pill author. So here’s what I thought represents the best posts from year 5.

Let me know what your favorites were in the comments and let me know how TRM has helped you as well.

 

With much gratitude,

Rollo Tomassi

@Sentient – you’re right, I was thinking of adding the line “perhaps the divide is happily married vs everyone else” but the age distinction was so clear I went with that. But then again Fleezer is mid 30s I think so on the younger side of the line and he would (probably) have come down on the pro-marriage side so that undermines the age thing although it’s true for the discussion on this thread. I didn’t say anything about value vs benefits/prices/risks because I didn’t fully understand what you meant. If you’re trying to say that the value or utility… Read more »

@Culum, Sentient, SJF: I am struggling. I wouldn’t say Andy is. Still, I don’t consider myself unhappy. Apart from the wife situation I’m actually very happy with my health, job/career and finances. I credit that to good management of my hedonic treadmill. Also, outlier in both age and (I guess) “happiness” or “not struggling” by Sentient’s standards is KFG – but of the older guys, he is the one who isn’t married I think. It could be that another important dividing factor is “Class” or Finances. I’m middle class at best, and only because I save money instead of spending… Read more »

No offense taken Andy, in fact I find it rewarding that you are extremely encouraged to not seek a completion in life. I certainly never did and have been rewarded for that.

Continue masculine self improvement, stick to universal masculine principles. Celebrate the feminine in life including women, nature, music, not being locked down to flow with energy as much as possible.

@ IAS Good morning sir. If one was to go strictly by salary, I guess I am middle class. But I am by no stretch of the imagination rich. Employment for me has been a long rollercoaster ride. Even at this late stage in life, going forward is uncertain and definitely not stable. I have prepared for future uncertainty.

The platform of a relationship, the platform for having children if one desires, the legal marriage thing, the no legal contract thing, monogamy or non-monogamy–those things are irrelevant and a red herring in the discussion of personal agency and happiness.

” . . . both age and (I guess) “happiness” or “not struggling” by Sentient’s standards is KFG . . .” Which also allows me to be an outlier in that I have done the practicum in both registered and unregistered marriage and divorce. “I don’t know about KFG, beyond him not spending lots of money on pricey bicycles.” That’s a relative thing. The stereotype of the guy with a $3000 dollar bike on top of a $500 dollar car would fit me, if I hadn’t got rid of the car years ago. The savings in insurance alone has paid… Read more »

Nothing in life is guaranteed, even waking up tomorrow morning. Let’s not make it easier for life to kill us. A combination of maximizing strengths (RP, game, self improvement) and minimizing weaknesses (state/legal involvement) is a good start. Nobody was saying forego the former and only focus on the latter. I thought it would’ve been assumed at the outset that here, at TRM, we all agree on those things. God forbid we spend one (OK two) threads discussing alternatives to bad contract.

Looking to do so is not equivalent to living as a bubble boy.

@Blaximus:

Read the Chinweizu book linked to above.

If nothing else, Chinweizu is a Nigerian, African orientalist, educated at MIT and SUNY Buffalo (Rocky built SUNY Buffalo into a premier college hiding under SU clothing – and then he died; but it was hot shit, albeit progressive, for a while). He brings his own “tone” to the matter, as well as a non-Anglosphere perspective.

It might help you get where the younger guys are coming from.

Via “Ultimate outsider” me as well… I’d say birds of a feather flock together but doesn’t seem to work for sigmas. Maybe online. Glad you are inspired and i’ve enjoyed your input here as well. So many guys have good stories that can inform a careful reader. You would think all could rise above the Gamma King snark but i guess online rewards that. Doesnt happen in meatworld that’s for sure. On FRs not ending how you want. That’s the thing… I have reached the point of desirelessnes, of just enjoying whatever and interaction may be about in the moment… Read more »

@Rollo but mostly @Sentient Going back to the possible dividers being age or happiness or whatever… I was thinking and I’d say Rollo is on the YaReally, Andy, IAS side of the (legal) marriage debate and not on the Blax, Sentient, SJF side. Rollo is married and it is working out well for him, but he 1) advises absolutely everyone that marriage is absolutely not worth it for a Man in the current environment (exactly like YaReally) 2) says he wouldn’t marry again (not sure if that is in case of divorce / wife dying, or more absolute in the… Read more »

Ias well those seem to be questions for Rollo. 1. I note he tends not to give individual advice (Big Al, Southern Dude etc.) 2. No idea his reasons, but having been there done that for 25 years myself, I could see a number of reasons for not doing so again if circumstances changed, none of which are based on fear or threats of divorce rape. 3. You can not know what you are doing (or why it is working) but still be doing it right – ex. every discussion of naturals on PUA topics… But 3 b. is just… Read more »

kfg Think I’ll go with Crazy Horse this round. Well, his war band did stop George Crook on the Rosebud. On the other hand, that day Crook’s infantry protected his cavalry, his cavalry engaged the Indians, and at the end of the day Crook’s command was still standing and able to fight even after his Crow and other Indian allies went home. So I’d call that a draw in the short run, and a loss for Crazy Horse in the longer run because Crook’s force remained intact and would be ready to advance again in time. Unlike prancing precious pony… Read more »

Yeah. That Whole Civil Right thing. The media LOVED it. Lmao. The fire hoses and police dogs in Selma got world wide attention. A lot of it was sympathetic. It’s in all the history books. Million Man March not so much. Because it had been done before, and done again. Putting people on the Mall isn’t the big news story it once was. The SWAT team taking down Fathers4Justice got almost no attention at all. What little it got was hostile to the Fathers. The whole “mass movement march” thing is very conditional, it requires at least some sympathy in… Read more »

This is something to vete for,when looking for a LTR.Also strong domestic skills are a must,or she should at least show an interest in sharing and learning domestic skills from other women. All skills that are totally learned by girls in their 20’s riding the cock carousel, whether they go to college or not. So the average, hyper entitled, American girly will be a great catch. Outside of religious circles, I’m not real convinced that many 20-something girls have any interest in learning domestic skills at all. But I could be wrong. Who was it that said several times “IF… Read more »

Lmao. Um, you’re getting out of your depth here.

As for that other thing..

I hope you can see the ridiculousness in equating this with MMM or Civil Rights.

Swat teams…. Okay. Any assassinations, imprisonments, lynching, bombings, beatings, etc?

I’m almost offended.

Special thanks to KFG: The way you explained things in this comment thread was life changing for me and has the potential to be life changing for others reading it. Great job. Because I am not interested in talking at men. I am interested in men, at least those who can, thinking and thus coming to understand . And what I have to say has already been said by others. Rollo chief among them. I bring nothing new to the table. But you can make all the declarative statements you want, if men do not hear them they have no… Read more »

I can’t wait for the next book to come out. I can’t read things on the computer, so I never read your posts Rollo. I hope the book gets released soon! I bought a few copies of the first one and gave it to multiple male friends, who then gave it to others. It is my estimation that with 3 of your books, about 30 people has been reached so far, and most of them agreed with the book.

“…and much of the failure of family and marriage is a lack of leadership”

It is axoimatic. As me how I lnow that.

Ask Brad Pitt how the fuck he can’t know that in the fog of war. It’s because he is in a fog of war and blind to that fact.

Blaximus, you are missing the point completely, it’s a “forest vs. trees” thing. All I’m saying is this: no “mass march” approach to the problem will work. Evidence: The last successful “mass march” was done about 50 years ago, since then none have succeeded in their stated goals. Not one, and thery have been plenty. Put a bunch of people on the Mall in DC, you get some press coverage and zero real change. Doesn’t matter what color the people are, either. So a “fathers should march on Washington” suggestion is just a waste of time. If that’s not what… Read more »

@YaReally Assume you had learned all that you know after having tied the rope around your neck and having handed her the gun, what would you do while running the balancing act on the chair? What’s the solution when you already have children together? To me it looks like a battle that can’t be won. 1.) Make the best of a bad situation 2.) Pull out right now and start over (can this even be done!?) I wish I could say I found some info on this, and although I searched, I couldn’t find a reasonable answer. Most guys posting… Read more »
