'''Puahate''' | '''Roosh V''' | ||
[[RooshV]] is a blogger and former sex tourist who was a highly influential figure in the manosphere and "game" community. | |||
After originally coming to prominence in the 2000s as a PUA blogger, he wrote various books<ref>https://www.rooshvstore.com/all-books/?utm_medium=menu&utm_campaign=organic&utm_source=rv</ref>detailing his apparent sexual conquests in foreign countries and his advised methods of picking up women. Like many manosphere writers, became increasingly political and close to the [[alt-right]] in the run-up to the 2016 US presidential elections. | |||
After becoming a "born-again" Oriental Orthodox Christian, he denounced much of his former writing, and forbade discussion of casual sex on his forum. | |||
'''Roissy''' | |||
[[Chateau Heartiste|Roissy]] was the sobriquet used by the author of the (now defunct) blog Chateau Heartiste, which was a blog that promoted pick-up artistry (under the name of "game"), anti feminist writings, and also increasingly white nationalism, especially during the run up to the 2016 presidential election. | |||
'''Puahate.com''' | |||
The first website where what we now know as the Blackpill was widely expoused was the forum [[PSL|puahate.com]], whos original purpose was to expose "the lies and scams of the PUA industry", eventually morphing into a manosphere forum where a major theme emerged of women being primarily attracted to a man's [[LMS]] (looks, money,status) in other words his "objective" value to women in opposition to more vague concepts like personality and game. Contrary to what some media says, the website, however, was not an incel forum, as there were people of every celibacy status there and there were no subforums on it that self-identified as incel subforums. | The first website where what we now know as the Blackpill was widely expoused was the forum [[PSL|puahate.com]], whos original purpose was to expose "the lies and scams of the PUA industry", eventually morphing into a manosphere forum where a major theme emerged of women being primarily attracted to a man's [[LMS]] (looks, money,status) in other words his "objective" value to women in opposition to more vague concepts like personality and game.
