This is truly depressing.
Yesterday Dalrock announced that he’s stepping away from his blog. Not only that, but he’s contemplating deleting the blog and over 10 years of what can only be described as seminal work in explaining contemporary Christianity from a Red Pill perspective.
I’m not sure what prompted this decision. I want to chalk it up to burnout, but I’m afraid that doesn’t explain the desire to erase a body of work of Dalrock’s magnitude. Everyone gets burned-out at some stage and 10+ years is a long time to sustain a blog that’s as well-thought as Dalrock’s.
I’m talking with Dal via email now and I’m trying to make sense of this decision. Several people have already begun to archive the ‘best of’ Dalrock for posterities sake, but I’m not sure this aligns with his desire to remove his work entirely.
I’ve been friends with Dalrock for 10 years and it’s no exaggeration to say that no one has done more seminal work on examining Red Pill intersexual dynamics in the context of mainstream Christianity than Dal. His blog has been the go-to place for discussing the Red Pill within a framework of Christian convictions for as long as I’ve been blogging. In fact, we both began blogging at around the same time and we used bounce ideas off each other on the old RooshV forums in a private discussion sub Roosh himself had set up for the likes of myself, Dalrock, Roissy (for a brief time) and various other Manosphere notables of that time.
When I first launched this blog I gave serious consideration to include some section or dedicated space to issues of Red Pill awareness and how religion (Christianity in main) is intertwined in it. I gave up on that idea in the early days of The Rational Male because Dalrock had so thoroughly covered what I knew then would be a necessary part of what was becoming the “manosphere“. And to be completely honest, Dalrock did it better than I had the time to invest in making it worthwhile. So I stuck to my policy of never discussing religion (or politics or race) in specific unless it crossed over into intersexual dynamics.
In these 10 years the one forum or commentariat that I participated in with regularity was Dalrock’s comment sections. I would relate the ideas he was developing to Red Pill concepts and he in turn would use my ideas to better illustrate what he was seeing transpire in Christian dating, Christian marriages, romantic/chivalric idealism and secularism transforming intersexual dynamics in a Christian context. A lot of this came to a head when he (and I) began challenging a new generation of ‘masculinity pastors’ and their own misguided ideals, and their efforts to turn the Manosphere into their pet ministries. It’s these grifters who’ll be toasting the demise of Dalrock’s blog the loudest this weekend.
When I began work on my upcoming 4th book about the Red Pill and religion my first impulse was to coauthor it with Dalrock. I asked him more than once to consider going in on the book with me, but his desire for privacy and anonymity had him decline my requests. Instead I asked if he (and various other men I respect in the christo-red pill community) would be someone I could quote and consult for the book. This he agreed to. In the new book I quote Dal’s blog quite a bit; particularly with regard to scripture and his concepts of marriage and child rearing in our brave new world of gynocentrism.
Dalrock filled a unique position in the ‘sphere. He more than myself has always been a thorn in the side of Trad-Cons & Red Pill Pastors (Warhorn) and their efforts to force-fit their old order beliefs into what the Red Pill was making more and more Christian men aware of. The Red Pill has never been a threat to faith, but it has been a threat to men who’ve built social and personal frameworks around a church culture that validates their Blue Pill conditioned lifestyles. If Rollo Tomassi points out how the Feminine Imperative has replaced the Holy Spirit in contemporary church culture and doctrine, well, he’s just a sinning PUA who can be dismissed. But if Dalrock rips back the veneer of ‘Christian Kosher’ Feminism that pervades the modern church, that’s when these guys have to do their homework.
All that’s gone now. And, potentially, all of that work is at risk of being deleted. All of the well-thought articles that held feet to fire and challenged an increasingly more feminized church (and their male feminist ‘christian’ apologists) to seriously look at itself are going away. And as I said, I’m sure the grifters are rejoicing and seeing it as a sure sign that God is at work in the Manosphere.
Blogs are Dead
I’m wondering if the age of blogging is at an end. 12 years ago blogs were the way to express ideas to a wider audience. Twitter and most of the social media we take for granted today was around, but it was certainly less endemic as it is now. Hell, even YouTube was still privately owned back then. If you wanted to build an online media brand you had to really believe in what you were doing to make the effort worthwhile. Blogging has always been a labor of love. That’s especially true today because everyone on social media today is their own Brand of Me. If all you do it curate an Instagram account with no other function than to show off how great a life you live, congratulations, you are your brand. It’s second nature to us now, but it used to take a lot more effort to relate your digital consciousness to an audience. That was what you used to blog for.
Now, even the most basic social media accounts can be ‘influencers‘. In fact it’s become so endemic that big name brands and their social media PR specialists have figured out that tween-age girls like to think of themselves as ‘micro-influencers’ and “hire” them to represent their brands for as little as a 30% discount on the product itself. As I mentioned in last week’s post, the barrier to entry has been reduced to almost nothing these days. But that ‘nothing’ barrier removes the process necessary to really develop one’s passions, or develop what one thinks about their beliefs. Content is king, but just calling it “content” reduces passions and ideas to a commodity. Are you a content provider or are you an ideas person?
The commodification of ideas, beliefs, imagination, creativity, etc. is really where this ‘sphere and countless others are heading. It’s not hard to start an online brand. Drop-shippers are all basically selling the same Chinese product, but the brand, the logo, the competition is all just a popularity contest now. Want to be a Red Pill dating/life coach? Just read passages from The Rational Male verbatim on a 5 minute video shot on your iPhone 7 and call it your original work. It’s not plagiarism, it’s content deliverables, right?
The easier things are to produce, the more real creativity suffers. Assuming most people in the future actually have original content to deliver, the process also makes them beholden to prioritize the production over the actual product. Blogs are not very good at that kind of prioritization. I was always amazed at how Roissy/Heartiste could produce a blog post a day right up until ‘his’ deplatforming last year. Most of those daily posts were just current event filler crap and C&P’ed comments from his threads, but in between it all there were the occasional strokes of genius. And those genius posts became fewer and fewer in the last 4 years.
I’ve never posted for the sake of posting. Traffic has never been my priority on this blog. Neither has monetization. The message of this blog and my thoughts have always taken precedent. In almost 10 years I’ve never written an essays for an audience. I put forth what I think needs to be considered and hopefully people can use that information to construct a better way of living with it. But in the coming decade pandering to an audiences’ sensibilities will be the only thing most content producers will focus. Audience engagement and content providing is already trumping any real discourse.
And this is the real hard thing to accept about Dalrock’s retirement and deleting himself; it’s 10+ years of real, passionate, ideas and necessary debate that’s been instrumental for men in understanding the state of Christianity, church culture, Red Pill awareness and so many other related issues:
When I think of the wholesale destruction of Dalrock’s work I’m reminded of how violent members of a conquering tribe/nation/religion are prone to destroy the artistic and intellectual works of the society they’ve overthrown. The first order of business is to erase the art, the ideas, the ‘gods’ of the defeated tribe, or to plagiarize the best of it and erase the rest. Burn the books, destroy the symbols, appropriate and assimilate the ideas; in the end it’s an indictment of the one who’s doing the erasing. I have no doubt that once Dalrock’s work is gone there will be ‘grave robbers’ lining up to distort what he built to fit their own narratives and provide them with content to call their own.
And all for what? Roosh has decided to erase himself recently as well. All the work he created that was so influential in the ‘sphere, now that’s traded for a new kind of nihilism. And all the usual moralist suck ups are ready to see him as the Prodigal Son. See? We were right all along. Our faith is validated and confirmed! But all the same problems that brought us to questioning that faith are still where we left them. Only now there’s no one left to point out their inconsistencies. No one’s left to identify the Blue Pill conditioning that’s prompted so many men to leave the churches. No one’s left to call bullshit! Only those grave robbers are left; the same guys who’ve been apologizing for never understanding the Blue Pill or their compromised masculinity because their faith and existence depends on it.
Blogs are dead. Long live The Rational Male.
Just to allay any concerns, no, I’m not shuttering this blog. I’m still going to be writing here and elsewhere. I’m not unpublishing anything. Maybe blogs are now a dead media, but I do my best thinking here. And yes, I fully expect some ‘coaches’ will be lifting my material to fulfill their content quotas. Just be sure to remind them where they’re sourcing it from whenever possible.
I will apologize for not posting as consistently as I have in the past, but this is mostly because I’ve been focusing on the latest book. Like I said, I don’t post for the sake of posting. I craft my essays and I don’t publish them until I think I’ve stated what I needed to state.

Her vulnerability is proportional to your fitness.
Excellent observations, Palma. Sentient Her vulnerability is proportional to your fitness. Inversely proportional. More perceived fitness -> reduced vulnerability. Getting betaized means less perceived fitness -> increased vulnerability. Other times of increased vulnerability: Sickness or other health issue that is out of the ordinary. Deliver baby, especially the first one. Early signs of menopause or “perimenopause”. A combination of comfort and alpha is needed in these situations. I’m sure there are others I didn’t think of.

Unless she’s forced to. Briffault’s law hangs on a few loose assumptions, the biggest is that a female can always define the nature of the exchange. That’s not an endorsement of rape, but it is an observation that males have historically had the option and the power to forcefully make an “association take place”.

@Palma, I’ve had plenty of sex with multiple women and only two actually wanted my sperm for a baby. Most in fact absolutely do not want to get pregnant.
No babies, no sex.
“Most [women] in fact absolutely do not want to get pregnant.”
That’s why they want to have sex.
“I’ve had plenty of sex with multiple women and only two actually wanted my sperm for a baby. Most in fact absolutely do not want to get pregnant.” That sounds about right. That’s why I have 2 kids instead of 200+, lol. What I believe, is that if you keep banging them and you have the qualities of a masculine man, they will start thinking…and start feeling. They don’t have a lot of control over that whole feeling part as much of it is hormonally driven. Like orgasms. Ever watch a chick cum so hard she 1) burst out laughing… Read more »

Yeah but her body, and yours cupcake, aren’t as woke. The body… Will play the odds.
You know Evo bio is a thing right? This is why “muh Hypergamy” is a thing…
Right? Do you even TRM bro?

It’s good to see you. Outstanding.
Vid of Clarice Drury confessing to poisoning Larry Ray. Obvious sleep deprivation just for a start.
By the way I believe she’s the purported $8,000 / night girl. She must clean up real good.
8 grand.
For pussy/sex.
Motherfuckers got waaayyyy too much cash out there.
She should be allowed to keep charging dudes 8 grand for snatch, but those dudes need to be apprehended after the act and beheaded.
They’re too stupid to live.

It’s the lack of any father figure and lack of any masculinity that’s leading these girls to older men.
Yeah, it’s obvious once you see it. After that you know it almost immediately on sight.
Flip side:
Here’s what masculine men are like to those girls
“Unless she’s forced to. Briffault’s law hangs on a few loose assumptions, the biggest is that a female can always define the nature of the exchange. That’s not an endorsement of rape, but it is an observation that males have historically had the option and the power to forcefully make an “association take place”. Read Alpha God by Hector Garcia and Promiscuity by Tim Birkhead.”
I’ll say it again, for the first time in 2020 ( happy new year ) –
The only power women exercise over men is the power men cede to women.
Period.

God(s) look like men. Meh, okay. Lol. The only thing that stops violence, is superior violence. Where’s Ton when you need him? A man unable or unwilling to preform violence in defense of himself and those that ” belong ” to him isn’t a man. Zfg what feminist and soy boys have to say about it. Every man is capable of committing violence, but over time the most violent among us have convinced men to be non-violent/civilized. This was accomplished by using the weaker among us as accomplices. It gets into deeper ( real ) Game theory, but even if… Read more »
“In the affidavit, the woman the Emperor’s Club called Kristen is described as “an American, petite, very pretty brunette, 5 feet 5 inches, and 105 pounds.” She apparently was booked at about $1,000 an hour, placing her in the middle of the seven-diamond scale by which the prostitutes were paid up to $4,300 an hour.”

Just noticed that her shoulders are wider than her hips. I see girls like that around college campuses pretty regularly now.
“You’re either r or k selected.
What the sex is about depends on that.”
The sex drive exists to make sure babies get made no matter what you think the sex is “about.” Some species don’t even know they have babies.
So Blax. Here is the deal. You want to help out. Your boys. And you live in a world where you are open, open and open to others. Good for you. That is a damn good quality you have. And I’m not lying. But you can’t get your message straight in Order vs. Chaos. And that has all to do with what you are going on about. And what guys are going to do about it. Psychology wise there is Openeness.

Sjf I’ve been an introvert earlier in life, then an extrovert. Then I decided to drop the labels and be who I want and do what I want. That’s the ultimate pay off. I’m not a huge fan of chaos, but I understand that I still need to function and get things done no matter how chaotic things are. Chaos is just more shit people do/engage in. My brain matter stays steady in chaos. That’s what the chaos of fighting instills. Again, where’s Ton? I try to ingrain that mindset in the young men in my life. Chaos doesn’t have… Read more »

Red pill devolve is definitely saying it is shit out there.
It’s ad nauseum on the Teets and the Youtubes.
It sells.
If you can’t guess, I’m talking about me and myself…Not Walawala… Conscientiousness, all well and good. If–there is a stable future, sex wise. If you put guys in wildly uncertain circumstances, guess what? They discount the future. Which is exactly what you should do. It only makes sense to store up goods ( beta bucks), if the future is likely to be similar to the past and the present, and you need a stable society for that. Conscientiousness only works in a stable society. IOW piling up goods, would only be piling them up for criminals to take. (which Blax… Read more »

Palmasailor When I was 25/26 and working in London there was an event I was out at with a few girls including an Australian Who said to one of the other girls “god I’m so horny I could take a pack rape right now”. Ovulating for sure. I was stood right there – But no way was I a contender because I didn’t understand what was happening, and she didn’t even look at me despite being one of the group. Yep.

@AR. Like the Firefly/Serenity reference. Nice. Mal Reynolds, one of the last bastions of a masculine TV character.
Blaximus, I have not seen anything online from Ton since last March.
Being number two to Zoë, Mal had to try harder. In the clutch he stood up for his people, but in between he was basically the ship’s dog while Zoë ran the show, Kaylee ran engineering and River was the Kung Fu Princess.
Palma I think they can be more or less turned on or off like a lightbulb. Talk to them too much and they can drift, ignore them totally and they seek conversation. And knowledge. They’re desperate to absorb everything. Identical to the flow in MM but you run that circle a bit more. Just to be clear, the IOI/IOD Compliance loop doesn’t end at the end of (A)ttraction phase, you still need to do it through the end, in proportion. Typically it’s less and less however.

Roused I sure like fucking, but have sense enough not to bang every chick just because she is attractive and making herself available. Muh Evo Bio doesn’t have total control over my dick brah. My observations on this point – comments made by guys who don’t have realistic option with women far more attractive than their current girl. When you look at NBA/NFL/MLB/NHL, rock stars and movie stars you see a definite trend, which is towards banging hot chicks, not worrying about losing The One, or cash… Exhibit A: Dick Test “smokeshow” https://www.instagram.com/p/B7RmqX0FtOH/ we’ve managed to have a semblance of… Read more »
“Muh Evo Bio doesn’t have total control over my dick brah.”
Even species that don’t know they have babies have selective mating practices. Selective mating isn’t taking control and stepping out of the game. Selective mating is a baked in and essential component of the game.
Even plants compete for selective pollinators.
I think that the theory is that attraction for women isn’t a choice.
Attraction isn’t a choice for anyone.
Seems like she exercised some options and has gotten you back on the reservation. take note, the beta frog boil doesn’t start when she turns on the heat. It starts when she’s taken you in hand… Nope, she exercised no options I know of. What I’m pulling away from is using fear as a tool to manipulate. Fear is totally not necessary. In fact, it can easily get in the way. She either comes along with me, or she doesn’t. There is 10x less contention as more RP tactics are dropped or significantly decreased. It’s extremely typical here on TRM… Read more »
@Roused. I like you. I am not a young man but I agree with this:
‘Young guys come here looking for help and what they get is cheat codes to get their dick wet. Lord knows how the hormones rage when you’re young, but is that what this is all about? Is the meaning of life just chasing tail and getting your dick wet?’
Roused “Speak for yourself. I sure like fucking, but have sense enough not to bang every chick just because she is attractive and making herself available.

Milage may vary with freaks who are in prison for any given heinous shit.” I don’t buy that… Read more »

Incorrect. The thing they’re 100% capable of is not banging someone else. It’s 2 things: 1. Leading someone on. and 2. Nuking the relationship on a whim(No matter how fast she regrets it).
“‘Young guys come here looking for help and what they get is cheat codes to get their dick wet. Lord knows how the hormones rage when you’re young, but is that what this is all about? Is the meaning of life just chasing tail and getting your dick wet?’ Speaking for myself, I never even try to give cheat codes and I don’t think that’s the entire gist of comments outside of FR’s since YaReally jumped ship.

@Sentient. I’ll have to pull you on this one.
I have recently been going through some life re-evaluation and I posted on here because I had nobody to relate to IRL. Palma understood and he got what I was trying to say. Your reply was something on the lines of sorting my life out, learning game and fucking a ton of women. Possibly you thought I was a young guy but that means nothing to me. I am not at TRM or read Rollo’s books for that.
Getting a message when trying to post that says: Invalid security token.
The comment window goes gray and blank.
Figured it out, the Jetpack plugin for comments doesn’t like me trying place code for a TM by muh hypergamy.
@Sentient LOL tent revival. No man, trying to say I’m not finding using fear, coercion and manipulation of Muh Hypergamy to be longterm solutions. That all creates too much contention and unnecessary anguish for a woman. What the hell is so damn cool about having to twist a girl around so you can get your rocks off? Is that how you want your daughters treated? Or are daughters just sacks of flesh like their moms? Here’s the deal, she is either going to be attractive and want to be with me, or not.
