PuaHate was a website that was initially intended to be an anti-pickup artist site and was created by a bitter former student of the [[Real Social Dynamics]] PUA company named 'Nicholaus' in 2009. It originally contained a splash screen saying the forum was [[NSFW]] and all people under 21 should not enter, as well as a footer detailing all the media outlets who had criticized the site. | PuaHate was a website that was initially intended to be an anti-pickup artist site and was created by a bitter former student of the [[Real Social Dynamics]] PUA company named 'Nicholaus' in 2009.

The second camp, concentrated on the "shitty advice" forum, eventually started espousing [[LMS]], looks theory, looksmaxxing techniques, and the "red pill". The culture of the forum was also centered around trolling, general autism, and the personal harassment/bullying of other users. | The second camp, concentrated on the "shitty advice" forum, eventually started espousing [[LMS]], looks theory, looksmaxxing techniques, and the "red pill".

Ideas developed on PuaHate include philtrum length theory, [[compact midface]] theory, and a focus on the importance of [[fWHR]] to male mating success. Over time, this second camp became the dominant faction on the forum.<ref>https://web.archive.org/web/20151226053443/https://www.reddit.com/r/puahate</ref> | Ideas developed on PuaHate include philtrum length theory, [[compact midface]] theory, and a focus on the importance of [[fWHR]] to male mating success.

This faction essentially represented a proto-[[blackpill]] movement, though there were never any forums explicitly devoted to [[inceldom]] or lookism. The most admired user from PUAhate (as well the entire PSL scene) is [[Jsanza29]], an insecure vlogger who had trouble connecting with users and got very angry about the way Redditors rated his face. He was admired for his brutal honesty and emotional exhibitionism and is still discussed in other forums to this day. | This faction essentially represented a proto-[[blackpill]] movement, though there were never any forums explicitly devoted to [[inceldom]] or lookism.

Sluthate was created on May 26th 2014 and users migrated to it from PUAhate.com. Unlike, PUAhate it had a whole sub-forum devoted to 'Rate me Threads', further solidifying the evolution of the anti-pickup-artist scene into a lookist scene. [[Eurasian Tiger]] was a well known user of this site and lookism, and had lots of alt accounts to spread his attitude/worldview. The rumor is that he is not the same user named [[tyger]] on PUAhate who bullied Elliot Rodger sending him pics of [[AMWF]] couples. | Sluthate was created on May 26th 2014 and users migrated to it from PUAhate.com.
