In honor of our September 30 AMA with Rollo Tomassi I present the top 10 most impactful posts to me on The Rational Male. I encourage you to add to this list and discuss:

*1.There is no one

Hard and fast and in your face. Rollo explains why their can be no "one."

At some point in a ONEitis relationship one participant will establish dominance based on the powerlessness that this ONEitis necessitates. There is no greater agency for a woman than to know beyond doubt that she is the only source of a man’s need for sex and intimacy.

He just left out the part about her not fucking you when you "give a woman no greater agency."

*2. War Brides

This one hurt me a lot. I admit this one sent me into a spiral and fucked up my entire world. This was one of the first posts I ever read in the manosphere and the implications of it were so disturbing I ended up taking valium and ambien to get to sleep for the next week. It is that powerful. To me this was like a shot to the stomach. I immediately realized it meant there was no "one." She can and will turn on you if you stop providing what she needs you to provide. I had seen it in court so many times in divorce cases but this piece explains EXACTLY what is going on in the hamster's brain.

*3. Amused Mastery

This makes the list for the pic alone. Check it out! That pic explains precisely what we mean by "amused mastery" (which is an excellent way to respond to shit tests).

*4. Your Friend Menstruation

Rollo explains "Period Game." On MRP we are "clued" into that whole thing. Dance Monkey Dance!

*5. Artificial Joy

Are you a Cypher? Are you thinking about plugging back in? Do you ever sit around and say: "Why oh why didn't I take the Blue Pill?" Do you just want to quit improving and go back to enjoying your steak? This post is for you. Trust us guys, Cyphers never get to enjoy their steak.

*6. Casualties

My brother-in-law hung himself as a response to having the unthinkable happen to him; his ONE, his soulmate, a woman he was very posessive of, was leaving him after 20 years of marriage

*7. Not-all-women-arent-like-that

Anyone who’s spent more than a month reading comment threads on manosphere blogs understand the reason NAWALT has become a trope worthy of its own acronym. “Not all women are like that,..” is the most common, default, go-to response for feminine personal offenses.

*8. Women-in-love

This is top of the sidebar on The Red Pill for a reason. Women don't love you the way you think. They love opportunistically and situationally based on ever changing emotions.

*9. Men in Love

Men believe in love for the sake of love, women love opportunistically. It’s not that either subscribe to unconditional love, it’s that both gender’s conditions for love differ.

In short, men are the romantics. Women love differently, get over breakups much faster, move on more quickly, and will stop loving a man when he stops providing what she needs from him.

*10. saving-the-best

This is one of the most profound glimpses into female nature ever written. NAWALT my ass. Rollo ends on a pessimistic note:

He wants her sexual best, but her 7 years of unwillingness to give him that while enjoying the benefits of his provisioning, his patience, love and perseverance only puts her strategy, the Hypergamic strategy, into perfect focus. Her genuine desire, her sexual best was never intended for him in the first place.

On MRP we have the solution- own your shit and become the kind of man who can command her sexual best.

This guy in the story- he is a bitch. The guy is butthurt that others fucked his woman like he never did except he never TOLD her what to do and what he wanted. He never DEMANDED she comply. The second he threatens to leave she folds like the cheap whore she is. The dude could have imposed any conditions he wanted at that point but instead was "disgusted." Yah, because looking in his little sluts eyes reflected his pathetic weakness right back at him.
