RooshV

Topic: Misogyny
I would like to make it clear from the start that I am not a "femi-nazi," as I have heard some anti-feminists say. In fact, I feel that I am more of a humanist; someone who believes that all human beings, men included, deserve to be treated better than a doormat. In this case however, I will be discussing a rather disturbing website that is the very definition of misogyny, and when I use the word “misogyny” I mean it.
Yesterday when I logged onto my computer and checked my email, I got a message from Change.org, a website where you can participate in signing, sharing, and creating your own petitions. I received a petition to prevent an American writer and pickup artist RooshV from giving his hate-speeches (directed toward women) in Montreal and Toronto. I had received petitions about similar issues, such as an artist who wrote music with lyrics advocating the rape of women, which I did sign, but didn't pay much regard to otherwise. When I read the petitioner's description of RooshV, I found it almost hard to believe, so I checked out the website myself.
First, let me introduce you to this fine gentleman:
"...people there, sometimes they pay sixty percent in taxes, and I feel sorry for the men. They pay taxes so high for women so ugly..."

According to his "About" page, his community beliefs are rooted in neo-masculinism, which consists of some of the following beliefs...

1. Men and women are genetically different, both physically and mentally. Sex roles evolved in all mammals. Humans are not exempt.

2. Men will opt out of monogamy and reproduction if there are no incentives to engage in them.

3. Past traditions and rituals that evolved alongside humanity served a net benefit to the family unit.

4. Testosterone is the biological cause for masculinity. Environmental changes that reduce the hormone’s concentration in men will cause them to be weaker and more feminine.

5. A woman’s value significantly depends on her fertility and beauty. A man’s value significantly depends on his resources, intellect, and character.

6. Elimination of traditional sex roles and the promotion of unlimited mating choice in women unleashes their promiscuity and other negative behaviors that block family formation.

7. Socialism, feminism, cultural Marxism, and social justice warriorism aim to destroy the family unit, decrease the fertility rate, and impoverish the state through large welfare entitlements.

So basically, my only purpose in life is to look attractive for men and reproduce, and by having the freedom to get a job and think for myself, I am destroying "family formation." I think this man was born in the wrong era; go to any time in human history past 60 years ago and he would have gotten all the inequality he could ask for.
I don't even know where to begin. Since literally all of it is jaw-dropping offensive and ignorant, I'm just going to jump right in and share with you some of my favourite quotes from his articles.

"Women have been quiet in the history of the world not because of male privilege, but because they’re not designed to achieve. The advantage that nature has given them concerns solely their appearance."
Yes, because it is embedded into a female's genetic code to be useless.

"As any game practitioner knows, a woman does not respect you if you respect her. "
Every woman loves a man who doesn't respect her. Seriously, if you want to get all the ladies, just treat them like dirt. Works like a charm.
"When a woman leans over the masculine side, she’s praised as independent, ambitious, and strong."
An independent and strong woman? Oh, you mean a masculine woman.
"Once she admits to being a feminist, someone who believes in female superiority at the cost of male well-being, she no longer exists in your world."
Um, no. I think you need to look up the definition of feminism, Roosh. If a woman believes in female superiority at the cost of male well-being, she is sexist, not a feminist.
"A woman can do anything a man can do, as long as a man first shows her how.”
I would like to thank my dad for showing me how to apply a tampon.
"Within every woman on this planet, regardless of her education or background, is a bitch, a cunt, a slut, a golddigger, a flake, a cheater, a backstabber, a narcissist, and an attention whore."
Is that it? I think you missed a few things.
"Make rape legal if done on private property. I propose that we make the violent taking of a woman not punishable by law when done off public grounds."
Splendid idea! And while we're at it, we should make homicide, arson, and drug trafficking legal too! That will surely make crime rates go down as well.
Nobody would actually listen to what he is saying, right? Wrong. He has over 14k followers on twitter, and an equally vicious following. The comment sections on RooshV's articles are as equally offensive as the articles themselves, so you can take a gander at them if you feel like losing faith in humanity.

Here are some of the articles from the website if you would like to be "enlightened."

If you are a female and you would like to ask RooshV a question, you have to go through a special screening process. Apparently only the opinions of women with DD breasts are valid.

Unfortunately, the petition did not prevent RooshV from giving his hate speech in Montreal, and I am guessing it won't prevent him from coming to Toronto. I'll be honest, I feel disgusted just to know that this man will be stepping foot in the same city as me.
Below is the video of his "historic victory." Him and all fifty to seventy men in that conference room really showed me. This 5000 view You Tube video is sure to go down in the annals of history.
RooshV can try all he wants to spread his hate in Canada, and he can believe that his campaign here is "historic" and "victorious," but the fact that 35 000 Canadians, including many government officials such as the mayor of Montreal were against his hate-speeches is all that needs to be said.

As hateful and oppressive toward women as RooshV and his followers are, I don't hate men, because I actually treat people as individuals instead of clumping them all together and make sweeping judgments about them. I believe there are good men and women who understand that what is between their legs doesn't define who they are, and then there are, well, the others....
