Game: How To Meet, Attract, And Date Attractive Women

by Roosh Valizadeh, Roosh V.

Game teaches men a 9-step program for meeting and attracting women in an age when smartphones, feminism, and anti-masculinity propaganda have made connecting with the opposite sex harder than ever. It will help you achieve casual or monogamous relationships while safeguarding you from sexual harassment and rape accusations that have increased due to the spread of social justice and hashtag activism. Game was written after the author's 17-year obsessive journey into the art of seducing women.

The book begins with...

–The 8 beliefs you must internalize to attract women without conscious effort
–How to maximize your physical appearance so that most of a seduction is complete before you even begin talking
–The hygiene and body flaws that turn women off without you realizing it
–8 attraction triggers that cause a woman to be deeply drawn into a man
–3 destroyers of attraction that turn off just about all women in their physical prime

The biggest chapter is on approaching. Even if you don't have a large social circle, or any friends at all, Game teaches you how to have pleasant face-to-face interactions with women. You'll learn...

–How to walk out your front door and casually meet women during the day in a way that won't make you anxious
–How to meet girls at night in bars, clubs, or on the street
–Dozens of word-for-word examples of how to approach women and converse with them
–The best way to know that a girl likes you and will show up on a first date
–The number one sign that a girl is ready to be kissed so that you never have to worry about being physically "rejected"
–How to move things to the bedroom on the same day or night you meet a girl

If you're not a fan of casual hook-ups, the book has you covered with a traditional dating program. You'll learn...

–How to contact a girl using a text messaging script that gets right to the point of scheduling a date
–6 fun date questions to ask that help reveal if she's worth a long-term relationship
–6 conversational guidelines that prevent you from running out of things to say
–How to "qualify" and tease a girl so that she always sees you as a high-value man
–The smoothest way to move things to a private home when she's ready for intimacy
–A safe progression to having consensual sex that won't get you in trouble with the law

Once you start dating a girl you like, you'll enjoy the chapter on relationships. You'll learn...

–How to lovingly mold a girl into your ideal partner while resisting her efforts to train you into a beta male slave
–The most important standards you must uphold to maintain the integrity of the relationship
–How to regain attraction after your girlfriend becomes distant
–6 warning signs that tell you a girl is not worth marriage
–How to know if your girlfriend is cheating on you

You'll also find two large appendices. They share...

–The best way to enter social circles where women will see you as the apex male
–How to get intimate with a girl in your social circle so that things don't get weird or awkward
–An easy trick to identify which foreign cities contain women that will be most receptive to your look and personality
–How to plan for trips that maximize the chance you'll get lucky with foreign women

The above only scratches the surface of what the 142,000-word book Game contains. It is seminal work of a hyper-sexualized man who dedicated tens of thousands of hours into understanding women and attracting them while fending off defamatory attacks from mainstream feminists and fake news journalists who want to criminalize healthy masculinity. Whether your goal is to have fun in a big city with lots of women or fall in love with only one before getting married, Game will help you accomplish your goals in a way that keeps you safe from degrading cultural winds that continue to divide men and women.

Advocation for the legalization of rape and demeaning women by treating them as notches on a bedpost. This book is trash. It is about getting away with rape, sexual assault, and emotional abuse.

Fuck all this shit.

To all the people that have marked this shit as "to-read", what the fuck?

GOOD FUCKING GOD. What the fuck is this shit? HOW IS IT ABLE TO BE ON THIS SITE?!

And people wonder why women won't deal with men any time by themselves if there's shit like this out in the world. Who the fuck was on crack when this was being written. And please tell me no self respecting publisher worked on this literal piece of trash. I hope to god no one buys shit like this that I know.

I have lost faith in humanity. How in the FUCKING HELL does this have a four star rating and people with to-read!?

Banned from Amazon (twice) and Barnes & Noble. This is a treatise on modern culture and how it relates to male/female relationships masquerading as a pickup book.

I first heard of Roosh a few weeks ago when he was a guest on The Public Space, and his intelligence and communication style impressed me so much that I picked up his book. I'm only reviewing the non-pickup content, since I have no use for it personally and can't vouch for the effectiveness.

Roosh's writing is clear and earnest. The target audience is a younger generation and a wide range of IQ, so the straightforward, conversational style suits the work well. Even with this constraint, he manages to pack in a lot of insight and red pills in among the advice.

I'd highly recommend this to any of my single male friends, or to people who have been out of the game for a while and are interested in seeing where things have gone.

A Banned book every young man should read

Game is more than a simple PUA guide, it's a guide for relationships. In Roosh's past game books the emphasis was on getting laid. Game takes what was previous written in both Bang and Day Bang and not only updates for the current but also adds a whole new section on long term relationships. I found this section to be relatable and even helped me better understand where things went wrong in previous relationships. It's a darn shame that Amazon and now Barnes and Noble banned this book.

To counter nasty emissions by women who have not even read the book and who still have found it ethical to rush and smear this work with poor reviews I am giving Roosh 5 stars.

All you have to do is read the creepy summary of the book to know this is a nope-nope.

How to move things to the bedroom on the same day or night you meet a girl
Seriously?

If you're not a fan of casual hook-ups, the book has you covered with a traditional dating program. You'll learn...
Oh good....something for everyone.

–How to "qualify" and tease a girl so that she always sees you as a high-value man
This sounds dangerous.....

-The smoothest way to move things to a private home when she's ready for intimacy
What? Well that is creepy....

-A safe progression to having consensual sex that won't get you in trouble with the law
Uuuummm....wow if that is something you are worried about we have bigger problems here.

–How to lovingly mold a girl into your ideal partner while resisting her efforts to train you into a beta male slave
Because it is completely ok to 'mold a girl' into whatever you think is ideal but changing yourself to be a better partner (or apparently a beta male slave) is out of the question.

–The most important standards you must uphold to maintain the integrity of the relationship
I think we missed that boat when we discussed how to get her into bed without having to worry about being arrested.....

–An easy trick to identify which foreign cities contain women that will be most receptive to your look and personality
I am guessing NO alpha females....good luck

–How to plan for trips that maximize the chance you'll get lucky with foreign women
This is a relationship book? or how to get laid without going to jail book?


I hope no one actually tries out these tactics.
Try going to social events that you like and talking to a female. Don't be a creep and treat her like an equal. Its a good start at least.

"Game" has certainly made me think differently in terms of relationships/sex/ dating between men and women, understanding what game is, why men need game, and what changes it brings to men's daily life and to society.
What is Game? Game is the collection of beliefs, strategies, and tactics that make women more attracted to men, that helps men approach and meet women, increasing the likelihood of a relationship, sex, or marriage.

On the surface it seems crazy that men have to put in massive amounts of work to get the women he wants, but the men who don't use game, who work their jobs or business to accumulate money and fancy cars, in order to impress women, are doing the same thing, they're just relying on "provider" game, that used to work before women made their own money, or had a wider choice and variety on who to date (thx to the internet).

An additional factor that makes Game necessary is the ratio of men to women (today) is higher than it has ever been in human history (most men have died in wars or battles, evolutionarily, almost all females have passed on their genes, whereas more than half of all males in the entire human species have not)

If there were 2 women for every 1 able bodied man, this book would not be necessary (instead women would need books to compete for the few available men).

Game is a strategy that works in any society with loose sexual norms, declining birth rates, factors that indicate a break down in the family unit and the promotion of free love. The more fractured the society is, the better Game works.

Roosh V has given men the tools he needs to find a woman for sex, relationships, or marriage in a broken dating market.

Amazing book, really changed my perspective of attraction and women in a healthy way

[Keith · Rating 5 out of 5]

Okay I have mixed feelings about this book but I'll give it a 5 out of 5 for the information. Roosh makes a lot and I do mean a lot of good points. The mixed feelings I have about the book is the time he said to commit to game which was for 10 hours a week. My feeling is this. I could be doing something else instead of focusing that chunk of time to women. I'm not saying it's not a good idea but for me I got better things to do. It could be demographic since I am 47 and really I believe Roosh's advice is for the younger men. So in reality his advice probably is not for me but it would work for young guys who haven't established themselves yet. Maybe guys who are like me can do this but for me it just seems like a long process since I'm always on the go. A very good read though and good info in this book.

[João Antunes · Rating 3 out of 5]

Interesting book. Story of someone that wanted to meet more girls and did the simple and obvious but so many people forget to see it. He identified what makes a guy attractive to the female audience and worked on it. Had the courage to fail multiple times, but never giving up until reaching success.
Interesting to see that there is a pattern between men and women and after some time in the game you start to see it and it becomes easier to improve it, because you know what works and what doesn't work. In the end each person should take this story and see it as a story. Don't try to replicate it, but understand the bigger message in this book. Try for yourself, fail hundreds of times until you find out what works for you.

[Ronald Reagan · Rating 5 out of 5]

Excellent Book, contains valuable information for men. Contrary to what has been said, Roosh's work doesn't promoted rape or abuse, this is feminist propaganda against Roosh. I hope he keeps on triggering SJWs.

[J L]

I don't recommend this book or anything in the genre, not without the right perspective. Because it shouldn't be taken as is, at face value. A lot of establishment psychology is suspect as well. But it is interesting to see how a certain model of ideal gender interactions (hypergamy) is used to interpret all sorts of factual events and interactions and to rank and prescribe male behaviors, either initiating or responding. Roosh is a pretty good thinker. Eventually he converted after this to Orthodoxy, with the catalyst being his older sister's death. He consistently saw that the prescriptions were based on a gender model that wasn't situated in the right, broader story about the world. He has kept the gender model but together with his new overall Orthodox model of the cosmos, he has concluded for his own situation, being 40+ years old and jaded about the state of society, that he should live as a monk, de facto. But I don't think, from last I heard from him, that he has properly integrated the gender model into the background Orthodoxy. They have remained separate, as if gender interactions outside of vows to chastity were inherently, dualistically opposed to God, to some degree, by inclination. This rigorist dualist interpretation has him leaning to ROCOR, the type of reading that would have one say "Death to the world" with which the proposition "Death to humanity" would be logically equal, because humanity is the microcosmos, according to St Maximos. We can't however withdraw from the world as if it were over and done with, unless we mean by the world "the nexus of human passions," but the world and sex-interactions are not per se afflicted by passion. Nor should we shun them just because they are prone to that.

In any case, I still think his gender model is a bit off. Do I think hypergamy is true? Yes but something is missing. There *are* necessary factual traits about someone that are needed to allow opposite sex attraction. You can't be hideously fat, lazy, neurotic, and arrogant (self-deceived let's say). Yes if you are bad in just one of these areas and great in other areas, some kind of weighing in the assessor's brain happens in a split second. But scoring deficient in all of those metrics happens to mean you are close to death anyway, and professionals have to be paid to try to help you, because entering your life, even to see it, is hellish. There is some mysterious tipping point where we improve these metrics to reach the average guy, and attraction becomes possible. The male would be to some degree physically fit, to some degree confident, ambitious and effective in the world, with some amount of humility. (I don't claim this is the perfect list.) This is the majority of guys. But the majority of guys are exactly the amount having a problem here, though perhaps not many will try to understand with books like this.

The average guy has already reached the necessary objective traits. Yet the average guy, just by those facts, doesn't have what it takes. He "isn't enough." In my opinion, these objective traits, no matter how much one self-improves, will never be enough for attraction. We're overlooking how attraction is also a matter of choice and providence, between three parties, two humans and one God. But also, given the fated feeling of it, that one is hit by an arrow of Cupid, it's not under our constant, immediate control. These can both be true. In my opinion, why any one girl becomes attracted to and enters a long term relationship with a particular guy is not fully explained by the objective traits, or that he scores on their sum total higher than her. There is some kernel of mystery here, some underlying choice at bottom, even if after the choice is made it becomes experienced as fate. And so if you're not attracting anyone, is it because you need to self-improve your objective traits more, or is it because providentially and by the free wills involved, it is not ordained (yet)? This is a matter for reflection, getting outside opinions, and conscience.

The thing is, this dating art / science psychology realm has only partially discovered this, the X factor. The red pill tends to reductionist falling into the objective, over-focus on the objective. The blue pill tends to obscurantist subjectivism, saying that it's just about confidence and being yourself, when they don't understand or want to look into why it's not at all straightforward how to be confident and oneself, since we are subject to passions / pathe / ancestrally inherited disturbances of soul, and so we are often deviating from the true self and true confidence.

99% of the things women say as to why they like this guy or why they don't like that other guy, are, rationalizations. They are highly misleading. And it's because they're not psychologists. We shouldn't expect accuracy from them on a highly mysterious subject, because so simple it's hard to see through the complexity. But 98% of what guys say falls into the blue pill red pill dialectic and is also misleading. For an example of a truth that is generally acknowledged among the red pillers, if a girl says she likes some guy because he's intelligent and funny, we can invariably find another guy who has everything the first guy has, is just as intelligent and funny, and she will find him unattractive; he will say things she finds awkward and doesn't laugh at, even though if the guy she likes said the same exact things, she'd laugh. The girl finds the first guy funny and smart because she's attracted to him. She's not attracted to him simply because he's funny and smart (and we can admit he is). I would say the majority of explanations we see from the red pill ignore this, or admit it and then don't follow its logical implications (that there is an X factor - and what is that?). But contra the blue pill, it is not the case that she doesn't like him for *no* objective reason. It's not the case that he isn't confident and isn't being himself for *no* objective underlying reasons. Those reasons are there and are still of some interest.

In conclusion, we need to have a gender model that explains the X factor. Orthodox Christianity does that. And we need to integrate the gender model with our overall account of the cosmos. We can't hand wave the issue away, in hyper-pious, mysterian fashion, as if there is nothing psychological and scientific or artistic to say about it. But we need to factor in the X factor, i.e. the free will of both man and woman, and God's providence, his keeping a man single, or his bringing a man a partner. Once we do that, we can reasonably adjudicate our time between self-improving, praying, and just *being ourselves,* without the complacency of the blue pill (which ends poorly), without the brute aggression of the red pill (which ends poorly), without the angst of the black pill that is really nothing more than the hangover from the red. The red and blue pill are both toxic. Bits of truth are in both. But you can't take those bits, leave behind and surpass their falsity, without the perspective of the Spirit, in Christ the Logos.

Addendum:
There is more to say about the X factor. It get's theological. Because this is the first and probably last book I'll read in this genre, I'll stack the rest of my thoughts here. Objective factors can overwhelm an individual. Or rather, the stronger the objective attractiveness, the harder it is for an individual to resist - even though it's completely possible. God wants his non-monastic saints to pair off. For the most part, he wants to avoid pairing two bad Christians and pairing a bad with good. This happens a lot. But all things considered he wants the couple to have faith if they're going to marry in his church. Now basic faith means passing tests. In the area of love, the common temptations of each sex need to be avoided by each. For women, it's to avoid social media and situationships with one or multiple chads with no principle. For those chads, it's to grow a spine. For the average guy, it's to avoid pr0n. If a man can do that, his chances are much higher, i.e. his chances of being close to marriage in God's plan. If a woman can avoid her temptation, the same for her. Now this is an idea I've glimpsed from Fr Sosoyev. But it makes sense. If you can't resist fantasy relationships, God can't help you. If you can resist them, then the door opens. Then, to walk through that door, I'd say cold approach is possible (after removing all the jestermaxing, and all the other weird, cringe, unnatural stuff a guy wouldn't tell his friends about). But you want to avoid this very steep and unlikely path, and find as many friends as you can along the lines of your strongest passion (in the sense of interests / hobbies), and building that activity that you love as much as possible, which means being social with it at some point. One last thing is that you can avoid pr0n and keep an outward chastity that still hides serious pscyhological problems. The solution is to accept being single for your entire life. That doesn't mean to give up on looking for someone. It means that you accept that God wants you single now and the possibility that God wants you single (in the carnal sense) forever, permanently, eternally. This way, you can get on with your life. Because what's the case otherwise? You find your current single life unacceptable! That's the only logical alternative. And how can you live, when you think your life is unacceptable unless someone else should decide to save you? A woman can help a man, but she can't be a savior of a man who redeems his life, from a state of unacceptable solitude or anything else. Christ has already decided to save you. So there is no one to wait for, but yourself. I'm a bit of a romantic, myself, but that kind of dependency is a blemish, and it's a blessing if God has decided to burn it out of you, because if you successfully cooperate you'll experience a freedom reserved for only the few.

"A safe progression to having consensual sex that won't get you in trouble with the law"

"How to lovingly mold a girl into your ideal partner while resisting her efforts to train you into a beta male slave"

"The best way to enter social circles where women will see you as the apex male"

"How to plan for trips that maximize the chance you'll get lucky with foreign women"

That's really all you need to know, lol. How ever will we be able to train our partners into beta male slaves!!!!!!

Book is alright. Although I wouldn't rely on it if I were you. The situations and scenarios from the book are very specific. They also do not reflect on all girls. That's the problem. If you read this book, don't read it as a step by step/how to book. Instead, read it as Roosh's experience. And learn from his experience. If you read it that way, then there is a lot of value in this.

But would I recommend it? Yes. As a learning experience.

All rounded book. It's a very detailed guide on how to pick up and date many women but it's also an overall self-help book for the modern man.

[Marco · Rating 4 out of 5]

The book effectively captures real-life scenarios and emotions, making it highly relatable. I found myself personally connecting to a sudden breakup followed by my partner's return, which adds authenticity to the author's exploration of human relationships.

One of the book's key strengths lies in its emphasis on individual growth and the establishment of healthy boundaries within a relationship. I appreciate how I assertively communicated with my partner, reinforcing the importance of self-worth and healthy dynamics after reading few pages of this book.

Despite only having read a few pages, I already feel a strong resonance with the content of "The Game." The book addresses core beliefs and values, offering transformative perspectives that have the potential to greatly impact one's approach to relationships.

Roosh has provided a solid manual on how to find, date and ultimately sleep with women. While this book was a good read, I would not recommend it to those who have already read his book 'Bang', for it is extremely similar, and you won't learn much else.

However, if you haven't read either, I would recommend you read 'Game'. It is an updated PUA book for those living in the clown world of today, with some helpful adjustments and tips not found in 'Bang'.
