Great news, ladies! Pickup artist and rape legalization proponent Roosh Valizadeh has decided to take a wife, or at least a wife-equivalent! Might you qualify for the job?
In a blog post that is essentially the world’s longest and least enticing personal ad, Roosh lays out what he’s looking for in what he so poetically calls “a woman who I think would be suitable for reproduction (and not necessarily state-sanctioned marriage).”
Beldar Conehead could not have put it better!
Let’s go through the list of requirements.
You must be so young and inexperienced you don’t realize you could do better than Roosh
Roosh likes them young, specifying that his future wife or wife equivalent needs to be between the ages of 18 and 25. In part, he explains, this is because he wants someone with a fresh womb, etc, capable of popping out multiple children units.
But he also wants a woman who’s not “emotionally damaged,” which his way of saying “someone who’s never dated anyone better than him.”
[S]ingle women over 25 are emotionally damaged in some way, are alpha widowed, or are professional daters who are incapable of making the proper relationship sacrifice.
“Alpha widows,” in the Red Pill world, are women who look back fondly on men they’ve dated before.
You must not have had sex with anyone better than Roosh V
Ideally, Roosh would prefer a woman who’s never had sex with anyone at all, and who cannot, therefore, compare him to anyone else.
I … don’t want to marry a woman who has voluntarily accepted being used as a [censored by DF] dumpster by other men, or who kisses my child with lips that have been previously wrapped around many other …
We’ll just end that quote a little early, for decency’s sake.
He is, however, willing to wife up — or wife-equivalent up — women who’ve touched fewer than three other penises. As long as the dudes she previously dated were basically big losers.
For a woman who has had sexual partners before me, I must be the absolute best man she has ever been with in terms of appearance, personality, and resources. Otherwise, once the honeymoon is over and the relationship hits an inevitable low point, she will get a “Could I have done better?” itch and sabotage the relationship or test me to the point where I have to play “dread game” just to keep her in the kitchen.
In case you missed his main point, he spells it out as explicitly as he can:
There must be no doubt within her mind that I am the best that she could possibly get.
You should be pretty, but not so pretty that you think you can do better than Roosh
More specifically, you must be a 7 on the ten-point lady attractiveness scale. No other ratings are acceptable.
Thanks to technology and modern cosmopolitan society, a woman who is an 8 or above in beauty has been exposed to more toxic situations and experiences where she’s achieved some level of e-fame, been validated incessantly for her appearance, and been offered money, consumer products, and trips for her vagina (and likely accepted those offers).
I think he means that these terrible 8-point-or-higher women have traded sex for vacations, not that lovesick beta males have literally paid for these women’s vaginas to travel the world. But this is Roosh here, so who knows.
She has also fully utilitized her beauty to get her way in life, including prime seating for manipulating men for personal gain. Not only is such a woman harder to manage, but her entitlement is far higher. For a life partner I will purposefully aim lower than what I could get for casual sex.
So evidently it is fine for Roosh to think he could “do better” than his wife, but not vice versa.
The color of your skin must fit within acceptable parameters
Roosh, of Persian/Armenian descent, wants his future wife/wife equivalent to have a “skin tone … within two shades of myself.” So no Swedes, but also no one with skin much darker than his.
I would like to have kids that look like me, so I will not reproduce with a woman who is black, Asian, or Indian. Acceptable races are South American, Persian, Armenian, and European (non-Northern).
You should be feminine, submissive, and preferably not too smart or strong
Roosh likes his women like he likes his coffee, weak. (NOTE: I do not actually know how Roosh likes his coffee.) As he sees it, his ideal mate
should look and act like a woman and not try to compete with me in terms of mental or physical strength.
You should be happy staying at home with the kids while he procures some sort of super-enriched bread
Once the kids arrive, she should have no desire to pursue a pointless office career in place of taking care of our growing brood. … her place will be in the home while I tirelessly work on my internet ebook hustle to bring home the bread that gives her everything she needs.
But Roosh won’t be a tyrant. While he specifies that he won’t “participate in more than 5% of household duties outside of home improvement,” his bride or bride equivalent will be allowed to have some hobbies, and possibly even a dog.
She may have some freedom to pursue hobbies like yoga or knitting … She can live a pleasant middle-class lifestyle that can even include dog and car ownership.
Sounds like paradise! Speaking of which:
You have to believe in some sort of god
Roosh, who doesn’t seem to have any religious beliefs of his own, as far as I can discern, requires that his future wife or wife equivalent be a believer herself. As he sees it, religious women are less likely to use the internet or get fat on him.
My experience shows that a woman who doesn’t believe in god has a value system taught to her by corporations and progressive degenerates. She will certainly be addicted to internet attention, alcohol, casual sex, material possessions, or food.
But don’t worry, gals. Roosh doesn’t specify WHICH god he requires you to believe in, so all you Baal worshipers should be ok!
You probably should live in some tiny Ukrainian village without internet access
As Roosh sees it, his requirements for the future mother of his children
are quite reasonable, and something that would have taken no more than a 6-month search two generations ago … .
Unfortunately, such women are hard to find these days, at least in places with actual sidewalks and electricity and so forth.
[B]ased on my last decade of intensive fornication, I’ve encountered maybe two girls who fit the bill, especially when it comes to girls being a virgin and eager to stay at home. Part of this reason is that most of my time hunting for women was spent in big cities where such values are rapidly disappearing.
So where in the world does Roosh think he might find the elusive girl of his dreams, reproduction-wise?
If I do want to have kids, I should immediately move, because I’m surely not getting any younger. The two countries that seem to best accomplish my list are Ukraine and Russia … .
Wait: IF you want kids?
Yep, if.
Because there’s one little catch, ladies. Roosh doesn’t actually want kids now. He’s just pretty sure he’ll be wanting some later.
While I can honestly state that I’m not crazy about having kids right now, I know that my desires can change and so I have to guess if I will want them within five years time.
So all you ladies older than 20 are pretty much out of luck — by the time Roosh gets around to actually wanting kids, you’ll be too old, an ancient crone of 25 years or older.
But if you’re between the ages of 13 and 20, with the proper color skin and no career aspirations, you still have a chance! All you need to do is to is to throw away your iPhone, strap on a chastity belt, move to some small town in Ukraine or Russia, and wait five years for Roosh to arrive.



Congratulations on the promotion, dhag85. From my experience of volunteer work, that sort of thing isn’t to be sniffed at. Volunteers who are reliable, dependable and non-flaky are really hard to come by, and anyone worth their salt will do their very best to acquire and retain as many such people as possible. If people start seeing you as such a person, it’s a hell of an accolade.
I’m hoping that Roosh meant this as a joke and his sense of humour is just extremely strange, but I very much doubt it. The entitlement on display is staggering.
On a different note, I’d like to say that I’m also very worried about the quick-fire. There is a tendency to assume the worst of new commenters occasionally, and I have seen (albeit very rarely) new commenters here driven off by excessive defensiveness for expressing a slightly different view. (However most of the time its been posts from a couple of years ago- I believe there was some language-policing controversy a while back? Perhaps that’s why its not prominent today?)
I’m just glad its not happened to me. You’re all wonderful people and I’ve learnt a lot from you guys. I’ve had a great welcome.
Wow.
Dude is super insecure.
He seems to view himself so poorly that he’s terrified his potential ‘mate’ would run off the moment she glimpses any other man, because any other man is better than him.
He’s trying to hide it behind a facade of confidence, assertiveness and dominance, but it looks like desperation and fear of abandonment. So, he’s wants someone unadventurous, average and incredibly naive that he can dominate and manipulate into never leaving him, without having to appear desperate or frightened of being alone.
@ Kularanini
Its surprising that any people are ‘fans’ of his. Then again, it seems the majority of them are the same!
Is anyone in the UK going to watch Reggie Yates’ programme on Mens Rightsers on BBC3? Featuring Roosch. Should be entertaining!
http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b06s5h18
If anyone *is* planning to watch, I recommend having a large bucket or trash can handy. Maybe some water to rinse with should the stomach contents go projectile, along with napkins (always have more napkins than you could ever possibly need at one time.)
@EJ
Thanks! I’m definitely happy about it, and I know I’m reliable and decent at what I’m doing. I’m having some mixed feelings since I just started working with this organization in September and I’m now getting this position ahead of people who have been at it for years. For all I know they could have been offered the position already and turned it down (it is more unpaid work, after all), but I don’t know. I’ve been to “goto guy” at our location for my boss since my 3rd week here, so I’m leaning towards thinking maybe I’ve just done well and earned a reward? I’m just gonna not think about it too hard.
Probably as a consequence of the current refugee crisis my organization has seen more than 4 times as many new volunteers this semester as compared to the same time period in previous years. It actually works as brain bleach.
@Andzzz, or others
Can’t access it from this location. :/ I suppose I’ll try to find it later. I’d watch that.
Milo is on it too *braces self*
I’m going to try and watch it (I think I was the first to bring it up, on a thread ’bout a week ago? I can’t really remember), but it’ll be the first ever video I actually see of the MRM and anti-feminism, because I can’t stand watching them! Luckily, Reggie Yates narrating and presenting will kind of break it up, I’m sure.
I didn’t know Milo was on it. I think its going to be good- the trailers seemed to portray the MRM as A Very Bad Thing, and I trust the BBC (and Reggie!) to give it a truthful vibe (I mean, whatever happens the MRM are going to look terrible, because how could they not!)
@Andzzz
My wife and I have an inside joke where I mutter “smarmy fuck…” under my breath just after I’ve had to talk to someone who fits that description. It’s like a chicken race where we’re never sure if the person could hear it or not. Milo would be the ultimate target for this.
@dhag85 I have the same reaction to him. Ugh! I thought his segment was mercifully short, but he’s just come back on!
I hope you can watch this some time, if you can bear it.
@nparker not sure if you’re watching right now? Reggie is doing well, I think. His general demeanour was wtf??? Then he read Roosh’s books and ‘rape in public places’ article, and was disgusted. About to speak to him, here we go…Roost’s lair.
A ‘shoes off’ appartment, it looks neat and clean…
Will try and write something more coherent later.
@ Andzz
Haven’t seen it yet, actually- I didn’t realise it was on today! I imagined Reggie’s reaction would be such- at one point in the advert I saw him looking into the camera with a ‘WTF?’ expression after a Roosh thing.
Going to watch it now.. wish me luck!
(Oh, and Roosh’s apartment is clean? What’s the betting it was the first time ever he’d cleaned his apartment? Can’t have one of the most respected broadcasters in the world film his apartment in its regular state of course!)
nparker — depending how long ago you mean, yes, yes we did. Resulted in a mass exodus. And religion was one of the topics that set that mess from long standing low level frustration to the mess it became. Some time later Asshole Atheists (shortened to AA, not to be confused with my nym) became the go to term for separating Dawkins and his ilk from those of us who thought “guys, don’t do that” was actually utterly appropriate.
But we do seem to be reverting back to assuming bad faith, in general, not this. Idk, “go read the damned comments policy” works for me. It is kinda there in neon yellow now.
Just finished watching Reggie Yates’ program. I thought he did a pretty good job. You could tell that he was trying to be balanced even though he was exploring some pretty terrible ideas. He obviously tried to be as unbiased as possible. He did express negative opinions about how some of the things Roosh has written (for obvious reasons), but still gave Roosh time to express his side. This was an exploration of the Manosphere, not an attack, though I don’t think it was a positive portrayal by any means (and I am definitely not an unbiased viewer). I’ll be curious to see how they respond.
I was intrigued by the fact that so few men wanted to talk on camera. Everyone at Roosh’s talk insisted on having their face blurred. They didn’t want to be seen there. Of course, then Roosh showed that he had one of the signs from the talk (“Your face will be blurred in a video production”) in his bedroom. I almost had to pause the show to go vomit.
Also, the fact that the MGTOWs refused to speak with Reggie, but the community still attacked him says a lot about them. No, they don’t really get mainstream support, but they don’t see that as being a result of their toxic views. They claim they are being attacked, but can’t see that they are doing it to themselves.
@ Argenti Aertheri
I can’t remember when the comments about the controversy happened- I never saw where it happened, only comments about it afterwards. May I ask, what do you mean by ‘mass exodus?’ I don’t want to drag up bad memories, just curious really.
I also like the ‘read the comments policy’ approach. Its direct, to the point, and can separate ‘bad faith posters’ and ‘good faith posters who use language and other such things inappropriately.’
@ej
Not long finished watching either (strangely, I started watching on Iplayer almost as soon as the ‘live’ version ended!) The MGTOWs refusing to speak to them made me laugh (harsh, mocking). As Reggie said, he hadn’t even done anything apart from politely ask for an interview. Shows a lot about these people, most definitely.
I think Reggie did remarkably well, considering just how uneasy he clearly felt. It was most certainly as unbiased as it possibly could have been, despite that. It was utterly unsurprising that the people at the talk didn’t want to be seen- it shows a) their massive paranoia and b) that they know their views are abhorrent, they just can’t admit it to themselves.
I’m so glad the doc happened, to be honest- it is most definitely going to reveal just how twisted they are to quite a few more people. Reggie’s speech at the end was uplifting- it embodies so much of the attitude of good, moral people towards the ‘Manosphere’ types.
I hope they make it available in the US.
“But if you’re between the ages of 13 and 20, with the proper color skin and no career aspirations, you still have a chance!”
Thanks for the hearty belly laugh! It’s good to come here and read silly things that MRA activists say and get a good laugh at Dave’s wittiness.
Good luck to any of you White women though. You’re still eligible to be Roosh’s plaything — if any of you are dumb enough to go for something like that.
That man really needs to check himself.
“Roosh, of Persian/Armenian descent, wants his future wife/wife equivalent to have a “skin tone … within two shades of myself.” So no Swedes, but also no one with skin much darker than his.

Kind of surprised he’d say this when he’s said this in the past:
“I think it has to do with the appearance of the women.
I like the beauty and the beast contrast of me fucking a pale white european girl. It’s like I’m an ape that just came from the woods and am raping this innocent girl. It’s great.”
I mean, he envisions himself as some swarthy, non-white ape preying on pale aryan maidens, but now he wants a woman who looks like him, skin tone included.
Atleast he’s pretty honest about how unsightly he really is, among other things.

That’s what I was trying to get at. They know it’s bad and yet they still pay money to go there. Why? It baffles me that they would pay for it, but still don’t want to admit that they were there.
This is not an easy topic to cover in an unbiased way. I went into it knowing about the Manosphere, so I already had opinions about it. Reggie started his research with very little background and I think that was a good way to approach it. The general public will probably not know about it either, which makes the documentary more accessible to everyone. It also meant that he was not coming into it with any preconceived notions (either feminist or anti-feminist), giving him the best chance of presenting the topic as fairly as possible.
Like I said, I’m curious how the Manosphere will respond. Roosh was looking uncomfortable at the end of the last interview. I’m wondering if we are going to see a reaction similar to what happened after he was on the Dr. Oz Show. He definitely didn’t come out looking good, but that’s not the fault of the show or the presenter. It’s because the ideas and opinions he expressed are awful.
I didn’t catch it; I’ll have to watch it tonight on iPlayer.
I wonder what Cassie Jaye thinks? Has her thunder been stolen?
@ej:
The Manosphere response will be very interesting, especially if Valizadeh’s position was expressed in his own words and writings. The MRAs find those words persuasive, after all, so they may not understand that the rest of the world would not. Let’s watch this space.
EJ,
I’m not sure I understand who you’re referring to as the “atheist bros;” I’d have thought PZ Myers would count, but perhaps not?
Dread? Dread is a great game.
Everybody invents characters who might appear in a horror movie and tells stories about them while pulling blocks from a Jenga tower. When you knock the tower down, your story ends, and the survivors rebuild the tower and carry on.

@EJ (TOO)
It will be very interesting. Roosh was especially eager to show off footage of the “Battle of Montreal,” saying that “this is what happens when you give females choice.” He claims that the media willfully misinterpreted his “satire” piece about legalizing rape to smear him. He doesn’t seem to think that the misinterpretation was because he’s bad at writing satire (or he won’t say that he only claimed “satire” after people reacted badly to it).
I wouldn’t be surprised if Roosh tries to play this documentary up as another “attack.” I don’t think he will have made a positive impression on viewers, but he certainly wasn’t presented in a strongly negative light. I’d say, at most, Reggie was skeptical of the Manosphere, which is a good thing for someone making these kinds of documentaries. He was shocked and horrified by some of the things he found (obviously), but I think he was fair in his representation.
It’s definitely worth a watch.
