The Rational Male

This book blew my mind because these were mindblowing concepts about women. I honestly never heard of these concepts and was in denial. Then I researched several forums and also talked to men and women outside and confirmed that this was true. Keep in mind that Rollo is writing these concepts from a over a decade of debate, critical inquiry, and refinement. He has refined and molded all the rebuttals and disagreements and drew out conclusions from his observation. He is drawing from thousands of men's experiences with women all across the world. I was disgusted by the concept of the female hypergamy at first. I couldn't believe that female nature is like this. I grew up in a feminine environment where I was taught that boys and girls were equal and that we think the same. Men and women think very differently I realized. These concepts in the book opened my eyes and I couldn't believe it. This suprisingly made me more compassionate towards women in real life and did not make me hate them. This allowed me to see the power that men actually hold and it is a waste of time simping for women. It's better to focus on your purpose as a man and become the right person for the right woman. Simping for woman is a waste of time because they have 2 or 3 options ready even if they give you a chance. This book motivated me to be a better man and to focus on growth and development as opposed to wasting my time chasing after women. I found that my interactions with women have vastly improved in real life. I don't find myself wasting time simping over women. This ironically causes women to give respect to me more which is fascinating. It seems like women give respect to men that are more aligned with their purpose and understand the flaws of female nature. It's kind of a miracle and it's making my day to day life more enjoyable. Beware that some women and beta men will vehemently deny the concepts in this book...but deep down inside they know that it is true. Must read book for all men.

This book is worth its weight in gold. The book reveals the true state of gender relations and it's far from what socialization teaches. I personally think that this is essential reading for every man. I purchased this book out of curiosity since it was recommended in another awesome book: "The Manosphere" by Ian Ironwood. I hate to be so grandiose but it must be said: the information in this book completely shut me down. What I mean is that everything I knew about women, or should I say, thought I knew about women, was debunked. If you ever sat and wondered why women are as they are; if you ever wondered where you go wrong with women, you find the answers herein. Be warned that you must be able to handle the truth. If this book offends you in any way, then it's clear you need it. I cursed this author under my breath for writing "such lies" about the nature of women. I was truly angry and even considered deleting this book from my Kindle. I went through many of the seven phases of grief during and after reading this book. I even tried to act as if women are the innocent beings as socialization tells us, but could not help but see the truth every single day. Everything I'd been told by family members, the media, school and any other forms of socialization is wrong and I took that personally. In order to describe what I mean by "shut down" mentioned above, I was like a computer with no operating system. I had no clue where to begin now that I know the truth; my daily question being "What now?" My anger towards feminism soared to an all-time high for making a complete fool of me for my entire life. The book clearly warns that once you learn and witness the truth about women and society, there is no going back. If you do so, as I tried, you KNOW you're living a lie. If you ignore the advice in this book while knowing deep down in your soul it's true, you're in a pathetic state of denial. It is utter self-destruction to continue with the beliefs that socialization and feminism would have us accept. If you're a man who believes in all the conventions preached by feminism, then you desperately need this book. Read this book and stop being depressed. Read it and accept the fact that you, as a man, are valuable to society and should not accept the role of a low life servant for the feminist establishment. You have the potential to be a powerful man and a devastating enemy to man-hating ideals and it is this that feminism expertly hides with believable and pretty lies. Read it and see how feminism cleverly uses our innate behavior for its sole benefit. For example: Our protector instinct is used to tear down other men for standing up to a woman even when she's clearly wrong. Read it, cry about it, throw a tantrum, say a thousand "hale Mary's", whatever, but please don't deny the truth contained in this book.

An absolute must read (multiple times) for any male in today’s world. You can pretty much treat this as a Bible...yes, it has that much relevance. Buy it, read it (many times), absorb it, learn it, embrace it and it’ll become a part of your DNA. This book saved my life, figuratively and literally. I’ve also bought this for a few guys who I consider to be brothers. I will recommend, though, that if you do that, when you give it to that person, do it from the heart and DO NOT pressure them to read it. Make sure they understand that it’s theirs to keep and for them to feel free to read it in their own time, and NEVER, and I mean NEVER ask them if they’ve been reading it. They will, in their own time, let you know that they’ve started reading it. It’s happened like that every single time with me. You can’t RP anyone. They have to be in a position to where they’re seeking the answers on their own accord. Mothers, especially single mothers, buy this for your son[s]. I would, though, recommend you to wait until they’re at least 12 or 13-years old or when they start talking about girls, which ever comes first. Read it with them. Put your personal feelings and biases aside and do it with an open mind. I only wish I had this taught to me when I was a young teen. It would have not only changed so many things in my life for the better, but it would’ve saved a lot of heartbreak, as well as some potentially disastrous situations. Fathers, not only do you need this, but your sons do as well. Brothers, you need this as well, and sons, give this to your fathers. I cannot stress how important it is for men, especially now-a-days to read this book, understand it, embrace it, and make it a part of your soul for your survival and well-being, both mental and physical. I know I’ve been very long winded;however, I only wish to convey how imperative it is that men make this book a part of their lives. Thanks for reading and best of luck and love to you and yours in the future.

I first came across Rollo's work though Elliott Hulse, and if Hulse recommends a book, it's got to be a great book, and this is more than a bloody great book, this is a transformational and groundbreaking piece of work. I was well informed on game before I read this book, however, I wasn't aware of intersocial dynamics to this extent, this information is such a gem that you need to go through it multiple times to realize how valuable it is. As a 19-year-old I feel it's an absolute pleasure to have stumbled across such information so early on, it opened my eyes to a wide range of hard truths that I see occur regularly around me that represents perfectly well what Rollo describes in the book. Once you read this book and have a look around, you realize how deprived we really are of positive masculinity as described in the book, and how 90% of men are still in the matrix, conforming to feminine idealizations and pedestalizing women to an unbelievable degree. The most disturbing fact of all is that they are totally oblivious of their blue pill conditioning, and this is exactly why it is the norm now and women are loving it while men are figuring out mindlessly how to get their ex back. I lost count to how many friends I have suggested this book, and it's fantastic to see friends becoming aware of such invaluable information, it's a chain reaction. If there's any single book you must read as a man, it has to be this book, and while you're at it just grab the other two volumes as well. PS. Many of your questions and curiosities associated with women and their nature will be answered after reading this book.

I cannot recommend "The Rational Male" series of books highly enough to Men, particularly young Men. In a time of crisis a close friend gave me this book and it explained in excruciating detail the story of my life as a "Blue Pilled" male. Following the painful ending of my most recent relationship, and with a string of prior failed relationships. The Rational Male finally explained to me in language I could understand, how, and why this had been the case up to that point. Understanding female nature and the lies told to me by our culture properly has completely changed my life. "The rational Male" series, and the "Red Pill Awareness" I have gained from it has taught me to not hate women for what they can never be to me, but rather appreciate them for what they are. Some of that is not flattering to my old Blue Pill ideals. It is very much obscured in the culture and in the ever present media. Read the book and understand what you as a man should be to a woman, instead of the lie sold to you since childhood. Your life and your relationships with women will be far better for it. Thank you Rollo Tomassi.

The Rational Male is an insightful and a must read book about the intersexual dynamics in a deeper sense. Particularly in today's confusing genders roles, it's a eye opening study about inter and intra genders prospects.

Ho letto più volte “The Rational Male” e lo considero un ottimo libro formativo e un pilastro della Red Pill. Credo che sia importante prendere certi concetti con le pinze e non farsi trascinare in fanatismi e ossessioni varie ed eventuali. Alcuni concetti sono molto interessanti e utili per il vivere quotidiano e le relazioni sociali e sentimentali, altri sono un po’ estremi e lasciano il tempo che trovano. Consiglio di leggerlo a cuor leggero, prendere i concetti che interessano e non fissarsi su ogni parola come se fosse un dogma.

The Rational Male is an antidote to the chaos of the modern interpersonal relationship landscape. A true masterpiece. In an incredible well put , easy to read bible on feminine nature, dating and the pitfalls of modern men. The greatest compliment I can give to Rollo is this : I will give this book to my son one day. I needed this book because I never had a father. You have saved me and countless other men through your logical, well researched work.
