I’ve been collecting my thoughts about my recent talk with Jedidiah Bila and a few topics of discussion stood out in this show. People wonder why I don’t do “debates” with every new influencer who wants to make a name for themselves by challenging my character – rarely my work – and then proceed to talk over and past me…
My colleague and friend, Rian Stone, took it upon himself to breakdown the brilliant simplicity of a common Manosphere idiom: She was never yours, it was just your turn. This phrase has been around since the earliest days of the Pickup Artists’ (PUA) online communities. And like many of the old wisdoms of that time the reasoning for it gets…
I received this comment on my January 29, 2020 livestream of Rational Male 101: I think Rollo is talking about an idea that I’ve read about before in Thomas Sowell’s famous book Conflict of Visions.

The same misunderstanding applies to our gendered concepts of Love; each sex presumes the other accepts and acknowledges their own ideals about love – men approaching…
Thank you for your patience in my absence. I’ve been focusing intensely on the 4th book for the past 2 months and I will be for the foreseeable future. The good news is I’m ‘in the zone‘ so to speak. I have the ability to occasionally get myself into a flow state where an idea I was originally working on…
Potential vs. Struggle “Women don’t care about the struggle. They wait at the finish line and fuck the winners.” Rich Cooper This is a popular belief in the Manosphere today.
