Tonight at 10pm eastern my State of the Manosphere address goes live. I’ll be answering question in real time in the chat, but once this is up and on the 21 Convention You Tube channel I’ll be answering Q&A primarily on the comment thread of this post.
As I’ve mentioned in my last few posts, much of what I predicted to come for the next two years, with respect to our gender politics landscape, has come to pass far sooner than I expected. I fully expect the 2019 Super Bowl advertising to be a parade of misandrous hate directed at what the Feminine Imperative perceives as their ideological and political enemies – conventionally masculine men.
Furthermore, the scope of the APA’s guidelines about masculinity is revealing itself to be much more extensive with respect to ideological purity than any real science.
The APA ruling ‘traditional’ masculinity as a psychological disorder is also proving itself to be a part of a much larger coordinated attack on who the #resistance and #MeToo believe will be their primary opposition in the coming election cycle. The Gillette agitprop video and the PETA video were only the opening salvos to build the groundwork against conventional masculinity. I’ve seen damn near every article decrying ‘toxic’ masculinity since the beginning of the new year refer to the APA guidelines as a kind of Papal bull for their believers. Expect to see more media use this as a basis for their further demonizing men as we move into the election cycle.
Speaking of which, in the first 3 weeks of 2019 we’ve also seen an almost entirely female set of candidates declare themselves as running for their party’s nomination. Kamala Harris, Elizabeth Warren, Karen Gillibrand, and a few others couldn’t wait for the clock to strike midnight on December 31st, 2018. This was also something I alluded to in our December 29th episode of The Red Man Group; a vagina will be a prerequisite for consideration for the Democratic nomination in 2020.
Anyway, those were just a few things I saw coming last Fall. Let me know what you think about this talk. A lot of convention attendees told me it was one of my best. I hope you think so too.
Dear Rollo, First of all, I cannot thank you enough for your outstanding work. To begin with, I owe to your first book almost three dozens of the women that are under my belt. But most importantly, a change in mentality that has directed me towards masculinity and ownership, and which is strongly and very positively influencing my life. Anyway, the main reason why I follow you is mere curiosity about human behavior. Your analysis obviously goes well beyond mere PUA techniques. It is all about the deep underlying psychology and, what is even more fascinating to me, how it… Read more »

The state of our sphere:

2) Even though our community have provided answers and direction few men have answered the call. It takes hard work and discipline to turn iron into steel. Faggotery still reigns supreme in 2019.
The BIG danger is over focusing on the Metoo movement / implemetation. While it has a big mouth and needs to be monitored the reality is that a tiny portion of the population takes it seriously or had direct inolvement with the topic. In many countries outside the US it has no relevance at all. Meanwhile understanding inter sexual dynamics are relevant to EVERY man and woman on the planet, on a daily level. Lets make sure we priorotise the development of men on the topics that matter the most, and give due resource and energy to the minor challenges… Read more »
Your comment that Marvel as a company and franchise is loosing readers and money because no one can write masculine super hero characters is a solid insight.
There is a fear of speaking out marked by what happened to Roosh but also how Julien of RSD was once treated after the Leftist, Marxist mafia went after him because of a video he put out.
The lack of masculine archetypes is a problem.
Sorry for off-topic:
is there a female author who writes for women about men? Something like a female version of The Rationale Male? I’d like to read it just out of interested to get better idea of what are women being told about men.
Dear Rollo, Many thanks again for your work. My twenty-year-old son has now read ‘The Rational Male’ from cover to cover. Fantastic! He came on a visit a couple of weekends back and told me, ‘What I like is that it’s not about hating women—it’s just about understanding how they operate.’ (He’s studying mechanical engineering, so he often expresses himself in technical terms.) I have a couple of question to join the list. In Chapter 1 of your book under ‘The Cardinal Rule of Relationships’, you state: “In any relationship, the person with the most power is the one who… Read more »
Thanks, Rollo. The bad news is that things are hopeless. The good news is that the situation isn’t serious, kind of like an illusion. If you simply see the situation as a bad joke, you can gently mock the jokers and it will not hurt you. I have an example of this from last night. A man was at the bar with his wife and we were chatting with the woman bartender. The woman ordered a shot at room temp. The man ordered a shot of a different liqueur chilled.

Don’t confuse the symptom with the feature; feminism is merely the current instantiation of the FI. In European history the cult of Courtly Love predates feminism by centuries, yet it clearly and obviously is another form of the FI.
If “feminine” bothers you, use “Female Imperative” instead.

Rollo, we’ve been watching the Female Imperative move more aggressively than ever to extort control over the workplace, culture, politics, education and so on. It’s all happening so fast now — e.g. the APA — that even metoo seems like yesterday’s story. But how do you see this latest wave trickling or bubbling down to the grassroots — the individual male-female relations you’ve addressed so well in your core writings? This is the angle to keep your eye on. Is it all mostly just background noise or do you see the game changing in new ways at ground level, the… Read more »
Excellent presentation Rollo!
Here’s a question from a different angle (excuse me if this has been answered prior); If the concept of the “red pill” were a product – how would it be marketed to males in HS (say 15-18) prior to entering college where’d there would be immense pressure to genuflect at the pillar of feminism, socialism, and other ideologies that grow on campus?

What is the diff between abortion and murder? If abortion can be justified because of the mother’s mental health, why wouldn’t it be justified for a mother to kill anyone for her mental health?
My choice is to rid my country’s body politic of all people who have knowingly participated in murder by abortion. If necessary, I will put them in artificial wombs and dismember them inside without the benefit of anesthetic.

Hooking Up Smart is one blog you could check out, if your gagging reflex isn’t too strong. It’s mostly dating advice for gals, pretty mainstream, doesn’t try to be particularly hip or snarky.
Susan Walsh ran it for years, but now some younger woman has taken over. I think it was Walsh who controversially wrote a Wall Street Journal piece advising chicks to nail down a guy during college rather than riding the carousel through their 20s — the idea being they’d never have a better selection of up-and-coming men to choose from.

Another men-are-morons ad I saw tonight:
Cute girl is moving out of the apartment while her idiot now ex-boyfriend is sitting there oblivious, wearing VR goggles and jerking spastically. And this is an SUV ad, not some femalecentric product.
Good. The electorate has already demonstrated that it has no interest in putting a wrinkly old white bitch in charge. 53% of white women, when given a choice between one of their own and the Pussy grabber, voted for Daddy. So scratch out Gillibrand and Fauxcohontas. Harris is going to turn out to be a shit how as well. Bring on more wimminz.
No wrinkly old white women… is just an outgrowth of the prejudice against old white men that is common. Their anti-Semitism is now becoming more open and known as well. This is revealing that 3-4th wave feminism has been usurped by WOC, as they must be the most oppressed. Oppression is not grounds for leadership and venting peoples prejudices does garner some support but not the noble kind.
The point of the talk where you describe what it was like watching sitcoms in the 90s: “My old man isn’t like this guy” Really hit me for some reason. I was 25 years old in 1996 (the year-point of reference you gave). I was 4 yeas shy of an impending frivorce I had no idea was coming. At that point in my life, I thought I was a standard American husband doing everything right.

You’re so right, men buy the SUV but women drive the buying decision. Ford F-150s are about all we have left, so run for the hills if those ads go soft this Sunday.
The theme of the SUV ad I saw seemed to be that it’s easier to find yourself if you have a roomy hatchback for the journey. Eat Pray Drive
The man in the VW ad is now single and will be making 100% of the household buying decisions.
The premise of the ad defeats itself.

You and Elliot were in agreement on a probable next step for TRP men being a return to religion. I see Feminism as a new religion coupled with consumerism,the “modern female” is off the chain as a result of these belief systems. Men have been corrupted by the feminine religion and TRP is the main cure for this corruption. Everything in nature stems from the union of male and female.

Question: Given the recent APA propaganda (masculinity is toxic), how can the red pill community react to the Feminine Imperative’s (FI) inroads into the professions (psychology, law, medicine, etc..)? Seems like the FI will move the “Overton Window” such that rational questioning will become a thought-crime/real crime.

@ Rollo
Part of the message I get from your post is that you are against gynocracy—the political supremacy of women. However, I don’t want to take for granted that this means you advocate for androcracy (or phallocracy)—the political supremacy of men. I used those two terms to search your archives and found no mention of them.
Question: What is your position on androcracy?
Response to ex-cartoonist’s question RE “position on androcracy?” I think this is a false equivalency. The sexes are not equal and never will be (doesn’t mean we can’t respect each other though). Rollo specifically mentioned in his speech that he comes from more of a scientific/empirical background. He is more concerned with “what is” rather than “which should be.” Feminism—like communism—is a utopian fantasy; both posit that if we socially engineered the population enough we will fix every issue. Dostoevsky was prescient when he wrote “The Possessed” (sometimes translated as “the devils”) back in 1871–which captured the spirit of what… Read more »

Neither do women worry about the Manosphere when they have a power to break the bond any man has with another.

I don’t see how you arrived at that conclusion?
A family of four requires 2 acres of land to feed them. This doesn’t take into account the hydrocarbons needed to produce the food and transport it. Which is a dwindling resource itself.
” . . . go to extinction in about 50 years. Some, like Japan and Italy, in about 30 years.”
There are 10s of millions of Japanese and Italians alive right now with a life expectancy double that.
I note that if current trends continue I will be dead within a week, fried to death.
I also note that between 1946 and 1964 (American immigration act, 1965) there was a baby boom. Now as a natural consequence, there is an elderly boom. The population is not in thermal equilibrium.
And of course if the global population cannot expand forever, it won’t.

@theasdgamer The abiotic petroleum theory has been discredited. But even if you wanted to believe it to be true you would have to accept the replenishment rates are far below the usage rate of petroleum. Overpopulation is a self evident truth. China’s forced sterilisation program has resulted in 336 million prevented births. In the west we prefer to achieve this goal through social engineering. Empowering women has led to lower birth rates, which is what was intended. But to us red pill aware men it’s an inconvenient truth.

The Mystery of Methane on Mars and Titan

Hint: Methane in those places didn’t come from decomposing plant and animal remains.
