"The Coffee Shop Girl You Never Spoke To"
You've replayed it a hundred times. She stood three feet away, scrolling her phone. You had an opening. You composed the perfect line — after she was gone.
For all you know, she's married now. To some guy who said something. Anything.
Openers are cheap. Almost any sentence works when it's delivered within three seconds. The expensive part is the standing there, drafting and deleting, while the window quietly closes.
The "22 Rules" stripped out my hesitation. What to open with, how to keep it alive, and the one habit that costs guys more women than anything else: waiting for perfect.

"Nervous Around Beautiful Women? There's a Rule for That"
I could talk to any woman I wasn't attracted to. Charming, funny, relaxed. Then a gorgeous woman looked my way and I'd become a sweating, babbling mess.
The fix took me years to find and ten minutes to learn. Nervousness and excitement are the same physical state — pounding heart, adrenaline, flushed face. Your brain just picks the label. And you can pick a better one.
Rule 16 shows you how. You feel the nerves, relabel them as excitement, and let that energy pour out as enthusiasm. Women notice the guy radiating it. They always do.

Yeah same, I got no response. Was looking forward to going
"Why Women Dump the Guys Who Try the Hardest"
You paid for dinner. You drove. You said "whatever you want is fine" every single time. All the effort, no expectations.
And she left anyway — probably for a guy who makes her pick up the pizza.
Painful. Also predictable. Her mind quietly concludes that anything requiring zero effort from her is worth exactly zero. You became a free sample, and free samples get taken for granted.
The 22 Rules flip the dynamic. Small shifts that get her investing effort, money, and time in you — until SHE'S the one afraid of losing YOU.

I don't think there's any realistic way to actually completely shut down these events. As mentioned above some hosts are going forward anyways and a lot of them were privatized before the event was formally cancelled.
Some accomplishments thus far
Even if the events are cancelled, the manosphere got a massive burst of free advertisement = more men waking up and seeing there is another path in life
Just another instance on display for the world of radical feminism. Hundreds of violent threats posted online, bomb threats, threats of castration, revenge rape (lol), etc.
There's always a positive spin, its how your mindset perceives it. For the events that are still going forward anyways, there probably won't be any protests planned anymore. Our enemies think they have scored a knockdown and are pre-emptively celebrating before the 10 count.
The meetups were a win-win idea. Either Roosh got massive free advertisement and many new followers, or the events were going to go forward. Either way he benefited.

I enjoyed this video, and it was funny how he was making fun of the "Boom Clap" girl, but you can see that Roosh brings a lot of this stuff on himself. He even said in the video basically that even bad publicity is good publicity. For instance, he tells the girl to shut up because "The men are talking". Lol, that's the same line Andy Kaufman used to use to wind up the feminists when he was doing his "bad guy wrestler/wrestling women" bit. I'm sure it's intentional. The more outrage he can stir up, the more publicity he gets.

Dammit. This would have been a great way to make local non-AFC friends.
I'm not sure what to think about all the media attention. Sure Roosh received a lot of exposure, but it was pretty much useless. Him and his followers were marked as a pro-rape group as opposed to a Men's Rights group. The only thing that the free advertising has done was to ensure that Roosh is basically made sterile.
"She Wants a Man, Not a Boy"
You asked her if she wanted to grab coffee. Then you asked if the time worked. Then you asked if the place was okay. Then you asked if she'd prefer tea.
Four questions. Four chances for her to say no. Four signals that you're terrified of making a decision.
Plan it. Pick the place. Pick the time. Tell her where to meet you. She'll either show up or she won't.
Either way, you look like a man instead of a scared little boy.

Thanks for sharing the video. It was interesting.
What's really amazing is the amount of power that Roosh currently possesses. If he really wanted to, he could shut down an entire fvcking country, and it looks like he damn near did it to Australia. I'm hoping that Roosh can actually use the power he has and put it to good use, but that remains to be seen.
