The Rational Male

Auvergnat · 2017-05-03T21:58:06+00:00

If I were to try to unplug anyone, my personal must-read list would be, in that order:

The couple of very best "mainstream-friendly" books on the importance of masculinity, to start gently and arouse curiosity:

1- No More Mr. Nice Guy, by Robert Glover 2- The Way of The Superior Man, by David Deida

Which should hopefully be enough to pave the way for the upcoming shock of unplugging that comes when you swallow the red pill bible:

3- The Rational Male, by Rollo Tomassi 4- The Rational Male Preventive Medicine, by Rollo Tomassi

Once aware that everything he knew about the world of humans' interactions was a lie, our unplugged man will then find the best general information on how to deal with the real world in:

5- The 48 Laws of Power, by Robert Greene 6- Practical Female Psychology For the Practical Man, by Joseph South, David Clare and Franco

And only then, when our redpill-aware man finally understands the theory on the real nature of women and of human interactions, he might want to read the best books that put that theory into practice to game and bang women:

7- Bang / Day bang, by Roosh V 8- Sex God Method, by Daniel Rose

Roll Tomassi saved my life via The Rational Male. The anger phase experienced after obliterating my blue pill conditioning was overwhelming. I reached out to Rollo via twitter and he pointed me in the direction of his Mental Point of Origin post. It took a significant amount of time to sink in, however now I am a new man.

God bless you Rollo, thank you brother.

The Book of Pook

Small note, remove "literally" from your vocabulary. Ironically it reduces the value of your sentences, even though you are using it to get the opposite effect.

YES. This book totally shifted my priorities in terms of life. Instead of trying to act a certain way, I became it, and girls love it. More importantly, my life is better now,

This is the #1 Red Pill book that every man and Redpiller should read.

"Smart and Sexy" by Roderick Kaine. It is about biologically based sex differences in intelligence explains why and how claims of discrimination are crap.

Here is a review written by Roger Devlin who himself authored "sexual utopia in power" which is another great read and listed on the sidebar:

Hey guys don't forget it's on audio now on iTunes and audible.com. Great to have the option to listen and re listen on commutes.

Rational Male 1&2 should be required reading before anyone can post on this sub.

Throwawaysteve123456 · 2017-05-03T18:31:19+00:00

Agreed, alot of things just 'clicked' in my head when reading. Actually re-read the book again and took some notes here and there.

BargainBinBoyfriend · 2017-05-03T22:50:21+00:00

I'm with you. I have read hundreds of books... quality books. The greats. And "The Rational Male" is in the top 2 or 3 as far as life-changing experiences. I will never see the world the same again.

If you're at all interested in stoicism/dealing with life's challenges and disappointments, then I very much recommend "The Undefeated Mind" by Dr. Alex Lickerman. https://www.amazon.com/Undefeated-Mind-Science-Constructing-Indestructible-ebook/dp/B009NW9NYU/

What you said at the end sums up so much. Once you swallow the pill, then go back out into the world, it's amazing. It feels like, Holy shit, this has been going on for how long now? And nobody told me before??

The real secret to a good life is just having an internal model of the world that actually represents external reality. Beyond that, sure a little work is necessary on your part, but once you see the world for what it really is, you're halfway home.

SovereignSoul76 · 2017-05-04T17:02:14+00:00

Same experience here. Other books were helpful, but the precision and deliberate manner in which Rollo writes totally captured me. RM would be the #1 book I would recommend to guys looking for answers to why the SMP is so brutal.

Second read? Preventative Medicine, of course. Also Gorilla Mindset is a good book for self-improvement.

SisyphosOnTop · 2017-05-04T21:15:45+00:00

Can agree. Swallowed The Rational Male and Preventive Medicine within two days binge reading. Most lifechanging/eyeopening read ever.

I don't understand why the pill is bitter for a lot of people. For me it was sweet AF right off the bat.
