Not going to happen, sorry.
I don't think excluding men from this conversation benefits anybody.
more generalising phil.
wanting you to stop telling women who and how they want to fuck =/= excluding men.
just for the record

I don't know for sure. But it seems unlikely that so many rich entitled white guys would pose, for months on end, as guys who never have any sex.
I suspect the truth is that the percentage of men who never have any sex is on the rise, and I think open hypergamy is the reason for this.
That's my whole point. It is precisely because of the liberties that feminism has wrought in the real world that an increasing number of women feel free to pursue their true sexual desires openly.
It's not that hypergamy wasn't practiced before--in fact it's about as close to a universal as human behavior gets. But it was rarely acknowledged as an authentic expression of desire. Today it is. And as we see from Roosh and the like, that fact is simply intolerable to a certain type of man (those who do not benefit from it basically).
what women want to do if they weren't constrained by societal expectations is not the same thing as women's fantasies.
Yes it is.
Yes it is.
No. But I do think they represent a new and growing subsection of young men.
Maybe someone shouldwrite someslashaboutroosh and one of his followers.
What makes you think they are posing? They might have loads of money and be a cesspool of rage over the fact that they have never been laid.
And why are there so many men raging because they can't get laid? Because women are now free to pursue their sexual desires without regard for male approval. When this is the case, they will reject a significant proportion of men entirely, in accordance with their hypergamous tendencies, where in pre-feminist days many of them would have been forced to accept such men against their wills.
This liberation of female sexuality is quite literally intolerable to (many of) the men who do not benefit from it, and so they are beginning to act out online--and even in real life (see Sodini, Rodgers et al).
Seems like there's an 'echo chamber' effect there.
Self-selection, constructed subjectivity, positive feedback around various kinds of counter-cultural interpretation.
Cultic milieus again ...
In principle reality might not have changed at all, but what changed is how groups of young men gather and tell each other stories about how the world is ...
You're telling women you know more about women than women know about women. You're telling women you know more about what gets them wet than they experience when they actually, you know, get wet.
You are funny Phil, to the extent that Roosh is funny. Which is not a lot.And why are there so many men raging because they can't get laid?

Maybe the success of 50 shades (erotic fiction) is a symptom of that, of how submission has moved from a necessity in the real world to a fantasy
Sounds a lot like some other guy I vaguely recall us discussing
Poor unlisteds.
Since the word "hypergamy" has caused confusion.

because he has no matesBut you're assuming all these men are low status. What makes you think there aren't any high status ones? How do you know Roosh doesnt have a few CEO mates that think all the fit girls are going off with bin men?

This ^^Recent rally in support of Roosh V.
Maybe, but I doubt it.
Since the word "hypergamy" has caused confusion, let me try to put it in other terms. When women are free to pursue their sexual desires without regard for male approval, and in the absence of male direction, a relatively large number of them will pursue a relatively small number of men.
The statistically inevitable consequence is that a significant proportion of men will be left out of the "dating market" entirely. In men who already have misogynist tendencies (which is to say, many men), this can produce a literally insane mode of anti-feminism. Enter Roosh and company...
