There are various male bloggers active in DC as pick-up artists (Roissy, RooshV). They dedicate a lot of time and energy to having sex with pretty women. I have nothing against that, and I think they are a lot more real than most people, who suppress these feelings and are too weak to act as they really want.
But, somehow I feel they aren’t really cool. It seems a bit frivolous what they are doing, and it costs so much dedication and energy. Not to mention blogging about it. And, approaching people when they are not in a setting that invites it seems rude to me. I do like reading their stuff, especially the comments. The commenters often seem more interesting than the main bloggers.
I wish they would focus more on long-term solutions to the girl side of life. Long term relations with polygamy, etc., instead of the mere “banging of hot chicks”, which seems a sysiphean task with little real fulfillment.
I do like other aspects of their identities. In Roissy, I like his anti-politics stance, his pessimism, his willingness to puncture hypocrisy. RooshV just seems like a nice, fun guy.
