		<description>It&#039;s funny that instead of addressing the issue, women who rationalize their bad behavior (which from my experience seems to include most women), some of the females who posted responses are attacking men.  Anonymous is right that tv perpetuates women&#039;s bad behavior and suggests that women&#039;s bad behavior is good or cool.</description>

		<description>I haven&#039;t watched American TV in some time, but when I do the shows like the one you mentioned in your post always amaze me.  

Women are the target audience of these shows, and they tend to agree with the bad behavior of the characters/actors.  They use poor rationalization to justify their bad behavior.  So much for the morals of todays American women.

Worst offender: Sex and the City.</description>

		<description>Well, you devoted the whole blog to rationalizing your lifestyle. Don&#039;t you think it&#039;ll cause many tomorrow&#039;s problems? Like when you are forty (sooner than you think), constant pussy-chasing got old, funds are limited and so is the ability to rejoin workforce.</description>

		<description>No, what&#039;s irrational is spending so much of your life fixated on and pandering to women if you don&#039;t really like or respect them. Everything a man does is in search of pussy right? And that&#039;s not irrational?..Come on. Maybe you&#039;ve accepted the fact that it&#039;s irrational, but that doesn&#039;t make it any less so. I wasn&#039;t trying to start shit but if that&#039;s what you want I can do that too.</description>

		<description>&quot;you set yourself up for unhappiness in the long run if your happiness depends on your ability to relate to the people you just deemed unworthy&quot;

This is the most perceptive thing ever written at this blog and Roosh&#039;s bs content free response just underlines it.

Roosh&#039;s happiness depends in large part on how he can relate to women (note his unhappiness in Argentina where his shtick didn&#039;t work).

Roosh thinks of women as &#039;worthless whores&#039; (his own words).

Therefore, his happiness depends (in large part) on whether he can gain the favor and approval of worthless whores. 

This is a self-destructive cycle that will lead nowhere good, especially since he appears to approve of violence against women and has more or less openly admitted to indulging in it himself. 

I wonder if this is one reason he&#039;s relocated...</description>

		<description>Lisa: What you’ve just said is one of the most insanely idiotic things I have ever heard. At no point in your rambling, incoherent response were you even close to anything that could be considered a rational thought. Everyone in this room is now dumber for having listened to it. I award you no points, and may God have mercy on your soul.</description>

		<description>Way to hoard all the good traits under the masculine banner you guys. I just wonder if that really serves your purpose in the long run, recalling that girl for instance who Roosh said he&#039;d daydreamed that, along with things to do with a highly squeezable ass, he would talk to her about the books he read, talk about deep philosophical things, teach her his ways, etc. Say this had actually happened the way he wanted it to...would adopting this man&#039;s positive qualities have made her less of a woman? This is why, when you insist on a strictly gender-based binary, especially one which makes one gender better than the other, you set yourself up for unhappiness in the long run if your happiness depends on your ability to relate to the people you just deemed unworthy. Some men manage to avoid the question by deciding women should be nothing more than sexual objects, but that is only a temporary fix, and every man confronts that fact who finds himself daydreaming about something more substantial with one particular woman.</description>

		<description>Rationalizing can be self destructive as well. My buddy is a short guy and whenever a chick wouldn&#039;t even consider him he would always say &quot;well it&#039;s cause I&#039;m short&quot;. He never once said to himself maybe it&#039;s because &quot;I got no game&quot;.</description>

		<description>Good post.

Men also rationalize all the time as well.  Usually those who can&#039;t take a blow to the ego.  It&#039;s a weakness and shows ones&#039; insecurity, etc.

Women, being more emotional creatures tend statistically to rationalize more on average, though.</description>

		<description>Lisa,

&quot;I know that you’ve said before to stop trying to figure out why women do the things they do; this ties into that.&quot;

Yea that&#039;s the problem I guess, men like to &quot;figure things out&quot;.

That&#039;s the very interesting dichotomy of the battle of the sexes. 

Women on one hand, know EXACTLY what men want from them, it&#039;s in magazines, on tv...basically everywhere. Women are depressed because they are unable to attain that level of beauty.

Men on the other hand, have NO IDEA what women expect of them, except for a small % who either naturally get it, or follow guys like Roosh, RSD,Roissy, etc etc. Men are pissed because they don&#039;t understand women. 

It&#039;s hard to say who has it worse. On one hand, once men figure out women, they can improve their situation tremendously. On the other hand a woman can say...lose weight, wear makeup, dress sexy, but can&#039;t really improve their genetic looks unless she a lot of money.</description>

		<description>How did you learn to stop rationalizing? The human mind is built to rationalize much of our behavior so that individuals don&#039;t dwell on circumstances and choices that they cannot undo. It is a deeply ingrained function of human behavior.

As is thinking that you are unique and exceptional com[ared to others. Which you might be doing when you say you don&#039;t rationalize your behavior. That said, I&#039;m not trying to be a hater, I really would like to know how you stopped rationalizing your actions and started being more proactive many of us would benefit from that.</description>
