人兽性交

Roosh has repeatedly advocated for predatory and forceful sexual behavior in his books, on his Roosh V blog and on his popular manosphere platform, Return of Kings. He pushes the idea that women are intellectually inferior to men, worth only the sexual pleasure and fertility they can provide and should be prevented from voting. He calls this set of hateful beliefs 鈥渘eomasculinity.鈥� Roosh has mingled with the racist 鈥渁lt-right鈥� but, always up for a misogynistic fight, has recently butted heads with women of the far-right movement.

In his own words

鈥淸E]ven if you accept the most rosy interpretation of my writing, without all the distortions from the media, can you name someone who is more extreme than me when it comes to sex relations? Maybe I really am a monster.鈥�

鈥淣o means no 鈥� until it means yes. The sex was painful for her. I was only the second guy she鈥檇 ever had sex with. I didn鈥檛 think she was lying, because pumping her was like jamming my c---听through a medieval keyhole. She whimpered like a wounded puppy dog the entire time, but I really wanted to have an orgasm, so I was 鈥渁lmost there鈥� for about ten minutes. After sex, she sobbed for a good while, talking about how she had sinned in the eyes of God, but in an hour she got horny again and we went at it once more.鈥�

鈥淭here are less homosexuals abroad. I don鈥檛 care what gay people do in private, but it annoys me to be surrounded by their flamboyant, deviant, and abnormal behavior in public, especially with their excessive displays of affection. I also don鈥檛 care for gay men hitting on me when I鈥檓 never in gay establishments. Thankfully, traditional beliefs are alive and well in many foreign countries, and homosexuals have to be more respectful of how they behave in public. Another benefit to more traditional societies is that women understand their role of appearing beautiful and submitting to strong men, something that is sorely missing in American culture.鈥�

鈥淗ow can any man who approaches a girl today see her as more than a c--听bucket?

This is the girl who鈥檚 going to be your lifelong faithful partner? The girl who鈥檚 going to be the mother of your children? I cringe at that notion, as should all men. I rather be an evolutionary dead-end that let a w---- be the mother of my child, but men today are being trained to accept the w---- mother and to be the soft cuckold, the sucker that gets to buy the goods at full price even though it has declined 80% of value from its peak.鈥�

鈥淚 saw women wholly unconcerned with their own safety and the character of men they developed intimate relationships with.

鈥�Because we have given women suffrage, it has become necessary to gain their votes by promising whatever they want in the moment, including the removal of all gates to the sexual market so they can engage in the great game of 鈥渁lpha male hunting,鈥� which has led to such unbridled chaos and sterility that we have to import third-world people as these empowered female voters abort听nearly听60 million American babies.

Background

Roosh was born in the United States in 1979 to an Iranian father and an Armenian mother. He grew up in Maryland with his mother after his parents divorced, and eventually attended the University of Maryland at College Park, where he studied microbiology.

Roosh describes himself as 鈥渁 late bloomer鈥� who looked 12 years old when he was 18. Not knowing 鈥渉ow to get laid,鈥� he was advised to befriend girls to seduce them. After he failed to find women willing to sleep with him, in his senior year of college he discovered pick-up artists (PUA) online. A community of men who give advice to other men on how to get women to sleep with them, PUAs often toe the line between consensual and non-consensual encounters. By his own account, Roosh 鈥渢ook to [pick-up artistry] like a fish in water.鈥�

Soon enough, Roosh decided to share his seduction strategy online. While reportedly working as an industrial microbiologist, Roosh started an anonymous blog (for fear of losing his job), DC Bachelor, where he shared his pick-up stories and advice. Roosh eventually replaced DC Bachelor with a new blog, now in his name, Roosh V. in 2006, as well as setting听up his Roosh V. forum in 2008, which is now 31,000 members strong.

Roosh quit his job as a microbiologist after six years, and decided to travel first to South America in search of 鈥渕eaning and foreign women鈥� and later to Eastern Europe. Meanwhile, he started his dubious and infamous Bang books, a series of pick-up and travel guides in which Roosh 听 of nonconsensual sexual encounters. After the first Bang book, self-published in 2007, Roosh milked the brand to create a series of spin-offs, from Day Bang (how to casually pick up girls during the day), to 30 Bangs: One Man鈥檚 Game from Patient Mouse to Rabid Wolf, to his Bang travel guides, which followed his libidinous and adventures from Poland to Colombia. Between his travels, Roosh spent some time living out of his dad鈥檚 basement.

Preaching violent misogyny

As a preferred target of Roosh鈥檚 anti-feminist and 鈥渇at-shaming鈥� writings, that pick-up artistry or 鈥済ame鈥� as Roosh teaches it, has evolved into teaching elaborate ploys to get women to sleep with men, regardless of their consent.

Some of Roosh鈥檚 key moves until 鈥渟he hits a Don鈥檛 Walk signal鈥� to then drop pick-up lines, entering a woman鈥檚 home without asking, or pretending to need to use her bathroom. 鈥淚f a girl is willing to walk home with me, she鈥檚 going to get the d---听no matter how much she has drunk,鈥� Roosh gloats. While Roosh shows that he is unafraid to boast of rape, he seems to be fully aware of its legal definition. In one of his Bang books, :

While walking to my place, I realized how drunk she was. In America, having sex with her would have been rape, since she legally couldn鈥檛 give her consent. It didn鈥檛 help matters that I was relatively sober, but I can鈥檛 say I cared or even hesitated. I won鈥檛 rationalize my actions, but having sex is what I do.

In another instance, :

We moved to my bed. I got her down to her bra and panties, but she kept saying, 鈥楴o, no.鈥� I was so turned on by her beauty and petite figure that I told myself she鈥檚 not walking out my door without getting f-----. At that moment I accepted the idea of getting locked up in a Polish prison to make it happen.

None of this is remarkable for someone who has made it his life鈥檚 mission to teach other men that 鈥渘o means no鈥攗nless it means yes.鈥� After the books sparked a backlash, Roosh claimed that he had deliberately embellished the passages to look more 鈥渕acho.鈥�

In 2012, Roosh founded Return of Kings, a website festering with misogyny with a stable of writers. Return of Kings headlines include: 鈥淲hen Her No Means Yes,鈥� 鈥淭he Intellectual Inferiority of Women,鈥� 鈥淲hy Women Shouldn鈥檛 Work鈥� or 鈥淒on鈥檛 Let Your Girlfriends Have Homosexual Friends.鈥� As a result, Roosh鈥檚 online platform has reached some significance; Roosh has 37,300 followers on Twitter as of February 2018, and 37,000 on YouTube. Return of Kings has 20,300 Twitter followers.

On these platforms, Roosh regularly depicts women as manipulative, fickle liars who don鈥檛 respond to logic and have to be battled and conquered, that the 鈥渙nly reason very few girls are seen as losers is because they have a p----, and just about all p------听feel good, regardless of who it鈥檚 attached to.鈥�

Roosh jumped into public view with a February 2015 article proposing that rape be legalized on private property:

Less women will be raped because they won鈥檛 voluntarily drug themselves with booze and follow a strange man into a bedroom, and less men will be unfairly jailed for what was anything but a maniacal alley rape. Until then, this devastating rape culture will continue, and women who we treat as children will continue to act like children.

Roosh later insisted that the piece was satirical, but it fell squarely in line with his own approach to sexuality and disparaging attitude toward women.

Like many male supremacists, Roosh uses online harassment techniques. He several 鈥渇at-shaming鈥� campaigns to coerce women into losing weight, inciting his followers to send photos 鈥渆very time you see a girl with a bit of a muffin top.鈥� He was invited to discuss those 鈥渃ampaigns鈥� on the 鈥淒r. Oz鈥� show in April 2015, where he was confronted for his cruelty. Roosh as caring about 鈥減ublic health鈥� and trying to decrease the obesity crisis. When shown studies demonstrating that fat-shaming actually does not help women become slimmer, Roosh claimed he was solely concerned with obesity in America because he found overweight women unattractive. When asked why he only fat-shamed women, Roosh could only answer that men (unlike women) respond to 鈥渓ogic.鈥�

Roosh organized a multi-city speaking tour in the summer of 2015 focused on 鈥淭he State of Man,鈥� which generated protests when it hit Canada. Undaunted by the controversy, Roosh organized a series of meet-ups in 43 countries in February 2016, sparking global outrage. Approximately to ban Roosh from Scotland, about ., and around . Roosh was since The events led him to a new book reflecting on these experiences, Free Speech Isn鈥檛 Free: How 90 Men Stood Up Against the Globalist Establishment 鈥� And Won (May 2016.)

Though Roosh claims he is not political 鈥� save his 鈥� in a March 2017 piece entitled 鈥淗ow to Save Western Civilization,鈥� Roosh proclaimed he had found the answer to the decline of Western civilization:

To appease female voters and their destructive nature of promiscuity and drama, a symptom of which is collectively propelling a book about a woman being brutally dominated by a man (50 Shades Of Grey) to one of the best selling books of all time, society has veered so far to the left that it is crumbling at its base through declining birth rates and collapse of the family unit鈥�Take away the power of women to vote, and the degradation stops.

Neomasculinity

In March 2015, Roosh set up the Poznan Institute while living in the Polish city of the same name. Its objective was to further his 鈥渄eveloping ideology鈥� of neomasculinity.

In his seven-point summary of the doctrine, Roosh wrote:

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

In the manifesto, Roosh emerged as an odd traditionalist. He blamed the decline of patriarchy for allowing women to get in touch with their 鈥渉ypergamous nature鈥� and thus enabling the collapse of marriage, as well as the government for sustaining women and removing their incentive to marry and live with men. Curiously for a single 40-year-old who built an entire career on briefing men on how to obtain sexual access to 鈥渆asy women,鈥� Roosh defended 鈥渢raditional marriage [a]s the best path towards societal stability.鈥� However, he added, modern marriage 鈥渢urns husbands into hostages within their own homes鈥� because of the institution of no-fault divorce, allowing women to leave their husbands.

Picking up some traditional talking points from the men鈥檚 rights movement, Roosh also fed into the narrative of male oppression, writing that 鈥渕en are the mules of society.鈥�

As Roosh writes in the founding document of 鈥渘eomasculinity," published in May 2015:

We鈥檝e arrived at the point where men are so consistently oppressed from birth to adulthood that any notion of female oppression can be immediately laughed at on its face 鈥� A boy born today will be institutionally, systematically, and deliberately oppressed by all facets of society while a girl born today will be given undeniable preferential treatment over him.

Though Roosh鈥檚 narrative of male victimhood is seemingly identical to the men鈥檚 rights activists (MRA) vision, Roosh disagrees with their strategy. Roosh criticizes MRAs for being 鈥渕ore focused on听begging authority figures for rights and benefits instead of adjusting to modern-day realities.鈥� He also berates them for being 鈥渁nti-social, bitter virgins.鈥� (Recently, Roosh has called for after a conversation with prominent MRA Karen Straughan, saying he would like to establish 鈥渃ommon ground.鈥�)

For Roosh, men are not fully victims, since through 鈥済ame鈥� (seduction methods) they can reclaim the circumstances of their life. Roosh thinks of 鈥済ame鈥� as almighty. After Elliot Rodger went on a murder rampage in 2014, killing six people and injuring 14 in Isla Vista, California, because of his anger at not being able to have sex with women, Roosh blamed the murder on :

I'm trying to think of ways our enemies will come after us because of this, but if anything, we're the solution to this sort of murder rampage. He is self-delusional and massively entitled, but exposing him to game may have saved lives.

In fact, Rodger had very much been radicalized by a website called PUA-Hate, where men expressed anger at being unsuccessful at sleeping with women even with PUA (pick-up artist) methods. They then turned their bitterness toward pick-up artistry into calls for violence toward women 鈥� in large part because of their feelings of entitlement to female bodies. Similarly, Roosh refers to women as the adversary. As he writes in the founding document of neomasculinity:

The only question that remains is what these men will do when the enemy, who will not voluntarily give up the power it has gained in the past three decades, decides to put down his revolt for good.

Ties to the racist 鈥渁lt-right鈥�

Roosh momentarily got quite close to another ideology rife with misogyny 鈥� the racist 鈥�alt-right鈥� 鈥� which he claims was spawned from the manosphere. Roosh鈥檚 speech at white supremacist Richard Spencer鈥檚 National Policy Institute in 2015 drew an instant backlash from some corners of the white nationalist movement, as he is a non-white man who brags about having sex with white women. Roosh eventually condemned the movement publicly, not for its ideas but because the "alt-right" was 鈥渁听frustrated mob that wants to control the sexual choices of all men,鈥� as he described in a piece on Return of Kings.

But Roosh didn鈥檛 completely sever ties with the racist, white nationalist movement. when he was caught on camera in November 2016 speaking to an audience, at his cries of 鈥淗ail Trump! Hail our People! Hail Victory!鈥� Roosh also positively reviewed the alt-right, antisemitic author Kevin MacDonald鈥檚 book on Return of Kings.

Ultimately, both Roosh and the "alt-right" share the underlying belief that feminism is behind the decline of Western Civilization. Roosh also relentlessly writes about the Western World鈥檚 decay, but unlike the "alt-right," he blames it mostly on Western women. As a result, he fetishizes women from Eastern Europe, who he views as more submissive and traditional. This then ties into the anti-immigrant rhetoric of Return of Kings: though the website occasionally indulges in anti-immigrant or anti-Muslim narratives, it is open to . But apart from this exception, Roosh has no qualms sometimes parroting the "alt-right." In November 2015, he tweeted:

鈥淩oosh, isn't your dad Muslim? Why aren't you supporting open-borders and immigration?" Because I like civilization.

Misogyny is a key feature of the "alt-right," and it鈥檚 no surprise that Roosh draws followers from its confines. But Roosh鈥檚 quasi-fanatic devotion to women-bashing is still somewhat divisive among white nationalists. In January and February of 2018, the "alt-right" echo-chamber was entertained by debates between Roosh and various women on the far-right. These heated discussions took place as a result of Roosh鈥檚 latest misogynistic crusade: an attack on the hypocrisy of 鈥渢--------,鈥� a disparaging term for young, attractive women who have risen to popularity in and around the "alt-right." These include sought-after YouTubers like Lauren Southern and Brittany Pettibone, who help mainstream far-right ideals. This rise in otherwise anti-feminist female voices has led to constant debate and backlash surrounding women鈥檚 place in the movement. Roosh seems to be squarely opposed to them and accused the women of using their looks and pretending to be traditional as a way to get followers and money.

As he deplored in a January 2018 livestream on 鈥淭--------听in the Right,鈥� the "alt-right" used to be all male, because of 鈥渢he seed of the manosphere in the alt-right鈥� and was then corrupted by the women coming in and 鈥渢elling us what we can and can鈥檛 talk about.鈥�

In a characteristically petty follow-up discussion hosted by Andy Warski, a YouTube personality who organizes debates ( between white nationalists and far-right figures, Roosh accused far-right women, such as Lauren Southern, of adding no value to the movement beyond their physical appearance. Unable to resort to arguments beyond his trademark misogyny, he was widely seen as having lost the altercation. Despite the humiliation, Roosh was not to be destabilized. It wasn鈥檛 that he had mishandled the confrontation. Rather, it was that:

鈥淥nce you debate a woman, you鈥檝e already lost.鈥�
