Aaaaaah, another gem from Roosh V.: my favorite men's rights activist! In his latest rant, he asks why women are wasting "the most fertile years of their lives" educating themselves when they should be at home baking cookies and raising children. I kid you not.

Luckily we need fewer children now.
 
I'm sure the random posting of this video from someone who barely posts here had nothing to do with the Trump picture in the creepy guy's bedroom.

Or wasting 5 minutes of your life giving this clown any attention at all. (Roosh)

It would be nice if society had enough kids to reach replacement though. It's a bit screwed up that all of the western world only has a growing population due to immigration and people living longer.

That wasn't really the point. The point was as stated. However, I was under the impression that being a Trump supporter didn't render one immune from criticism.

It's Roosh V. He's a stupid MGTOW pick-up artist.

Just ignore him. He doesn't deserve the attention he gets.

Yeah I know. I have a habit of indulging my masochist streak every so often. Maybe I should try harder to avoid doing so.

So what do you think the causes for MGTOW are? Is it just sexist dudes that can't take women working or something? What I'm asking you is why are these men avoiding relationships with women? Furthermore, why are so many guys not supporting their children or working at all? This guys argument here is trash, but he is regrettably hitting on something important by shear accident. I wonder if you know what it is.

I dunno, as a 32-year-old fast food worker, I'd say that I haven't had the greatest life either myself, but you don't see me proclaiming that men should be forbidden to hold jobs or vote (yep, he's anti-women's-suffrage too) or anything like that.

I get that people suffer. But they should blame the right people, not those with lives much worse than they could ever dream of enduring. I'm not in any way harming Mr. Roosh V. by trying to survive.

Don't mistake what my question as a defense for Roosh. I think he spends a great deal of time making arguments that are stupid and sexist and I generally don't think he speaks for much of anyone but himself. Still, the question remains exactly why men are acting in the way they are. You see, I think it is a response to society and to changes in female behaviors more than anything else.

We shouldn't kid ourselves: the fact that that rant had like 12,000 up-votes should tell you that he's far from alone in his views.

As to what men like Roosh are objectively responding to, I suspect it's the deteriorating standard of living in this century. He just blames women more than the capitalist class that's actually responsible for it. Why do he and other men like him choose the target that they do? Well, experience with them online tells me that that's something they basically do for subjective reasons, not objective ones. Like for example, an ex-pick-up artist I've met online before has explained to me that he got into that scene as sort of a long-term outgrowth of positive experiences with men and negative experiences with women. He had a supportive father and an abusive mother, for example. Those are the sorts of experiences that I think cause some men to gravitate toward that scene. I have some sympathy, but it's finite because it's not like I haven't been abused myself before or anything without going an analogous route.

How would anyone know he was a man without a giant beard to prove it?

That is the insecure thinking of many of the world's more hardcore misogynists. The ISIS men. The Duck Dynasty patriarchs. Etc.

I love how people keep bringing up the beard in the comments. Is something wrong with growing your beard out? lol It's not like he is looking for a date or whatever, so why not let his beard grow?

The good thing is that women are getting an education as good as, or better than men, right across the Western world. Would that that was so in the benighted lands of Islam. In my two countries women are now a clear majority among university students.

Yup, men are not going to college, while women are. That is not women beating men, but men just not bothering.

Given today's technology we cannot sustain a population above maybe two or three billions at even the Portugiese standard of living. So technology will have to improve quickly or either the living standard or the population size must fall. In the 1970s, when the first robust predictions were produced, the crunch seemed far off. And for the teens of that time it was quite right to believe it would hardly be their problem.

A right wing SJW. Most evangelicals are SJW's, but they call their war by a different name.

Let me guess: Westboro Baptist Church is likely your favorite Christian organization because they show Christians in the light that you want them portrayed. I'm calling out your straw man.

Why am I not surprised you identify as a Communist, I would be tempted to myself were I of your career potential.

What fascinates me about Roosh is that he uses his infamy to highlight very real discrimination men face:

-- Male DV victims have almost no help
-- Men get 63% more time for the same crime and men are more likely to be arrested and convicted on the same evidence
-- Men are discriminated in divorce
-- Male bashing is prevalent in Mainstream Media

Moreover, he is one of the fathers of Alternative Media -- which exposes modern Left's hypocrisy and double standards.

With infamy his site gets 3 million visits per month. Without infamy, I doubt he could have gotten 10% of that.

Well towards the end of the video he mentions that his grandfather was a polygamist Iranian. Thus he was likely influenced by Islamic political culture. Islam is politics and culture every bit as much as it is a religion.

That is a very patriarchal culture.
