Some time ago, while exploring the net I stumbled upon a PUA site. I was about to leave in disgust, but I thought I’ll have a quick look and report on what I saw. It was as you’d expect, men talking about women as things to be conquest and conquered, before being thrown away.

Not to forget the over 50,000 lobotomies men forced their wives to get because they weren’t obedient.

I read what look like an affidavit that said two of the girls were 12-years-old. It’s described in depth what happened. I wish I hadn’t seen it. Didn’t finish it. Megyn must have thought 15 sounded better which is gross.

Hoping that working on my confidence will improve my mental health fighting the fear of abandonment.

So to anyone reading if you know a way I can fight this fear, let me know!

One of the ways I’m trying to change myself is my fear of abandonment. It’s made me do and say things I shouldn’t have. I don’t do those anymore. Not contacting people who might have (there’s a X glitch) unfollowed me is hard, but I want to respect their boundaries.

On another app, I’ve been talking about the ways I have changed over the last year.

Social and anticipatory anxiety is still there, and I’m fighting that hard, but I’ve had some victories over myself.

Oh, this was originally posted on X. Hence the reference to it in the thread.

Was originally going to write more, but reading their evil trash, made me super upset.

These creeps are still out there. I hope this raises awareness.

I didn’t read the comments. I just didn’t have it in me to continue reading these evil men.

There was an advertisement for pimping women they are done with. A paid course.

She got clean thinking she had something with this arsehole. He targeted her while she was on drugs because he thought she’d be easy. Lied to her, had intercourse and then left her.

It’s hard to write this. So vile. This PUA was asking for help with how to get rid of one of his β€œconquests.” Apparently, after getting out of drug rehab she wanted to seek him out now that she is clean, with dreams of them having a good life together.

Given what I've read about these men, her breaking up with this guy through text was the safest option. I just hope the creep left her alone.

My mum, brought up a superb point. Classes that are teaching men, and encouraging them to commit these sexual crimes, are breaking the law. Let’s get these people behind bars!

I was considering screenshots, but I decided against it as I don’t want to help men find these websites. Might share links with long time known feminist women in DMs, but that’s it. These places are vile hate groups who teach grooming teen girls and manipulating women.

Many of them had threads where they were talking about women that have or are taking them to court for a criminal conviction of rape.

legal drugs like alcohol.

Coercive control features heavily, especially in men looking for a long term slave.

Age, was also mentioned in a few blogs, forums, and training products. Their ideas for manipulating barely legal girls.

If anyone has had a different experience with hypnosis it might be good to warn with me.

They also try and get women drunk. I saw a large group of men complaining about what they called new feminist laws, from what I can tell they were talking about affirmative consent laws, and laws regarding

Gaslighting in longer relationships, this includes event denial, and trying to create false memories they claim the women have forgotten.

Some of them claim to know hypnosis, but I’ve been hypnotised in my therapy and it’s nothing like they described.

Typical PUA tactics to look out for: negging which is a manipulation tactic using backhanded compliments to outright insults in order to undermine a woman’s confidence.
Temporary Ghosting which is also used by romantic con artists, they do this after years manipulating their marks for money.

The read was soul crushing. He didn’t give up all his β€œgame” he said that the most powerful ways to abuse women are in his paid service. Game is one of the words PUAs use to describe who they manipulate women.

Not talking sex kink here. Unwilling enslavement. He gave a long description on ways men can emotionally manipulate their wives in order to break their spirits. It was a guid to spousal abuse. A DV handbook he is selling. The antithesis of love, of feminism.

He gave a detailed description that all women are manipulators and that men should reverse their manipulative nature against them. He said that men who fall in love don’t want a slave. He meant it.

I was hoping that it was going to be trying to get them out of a life of abusing women, but I thought I was prepared for the worst. His first warning to men wanting to marry was to never fall in love with the women.

Others outright admit that it’s a good way to abuse women. I’m going to talk about the most disturbing one first. This PUA talks about PUAs who want to eventually settle down.

I found some non forum PUA websites, men selling PUA products to other men. It was some of the cringiest and creepy stuff I’ve read in a long time. Some of them try to pretend that manipulating women in order to use and discard them is moral.

Some good news is a lot of the PUA forums have shut down.

Bad news is the remaining ones have a scary number of members from across the globe.

They are using these abusive tactics for monetary purposes and during political discourse, here on X.

Saw another site that was worse than the first one. It was like reading Tate. Lots of horrendous ways that men can abuse women in order for them to break a woman’s independence.

I decided to read a psychology report into PUAs. It talked about misogyny, manipulation, denial of events that happened. A handbook for emotional manipulation. I recognised this abhorrent behaviour from misogynist men online, and one woman.

Lots of ugly sexism, laughing at women who thought someone was actually interested in them. Really saddened me and made me angry.
There was one thread that stood out from the others. I was surprised to say the least. The PUA found the Incels so misogynistic and obscene, that they kicked them all out
