I think is hard to blanket the forum with one catch all.

There seems to be guys who are much more about the local grind and the logistics around travel and banging. Think the Indiana Jones of the dating world. Exotic country, locals who want to kill you, leaping over pitfalls, cockblocks, and shit tests to get the golden bang. Roosh, Neil Skywalker, etc. I would call them privateers, raiders, nomads, conquistadors

The there are the guys who want to get things done, movers and shakers, wheelers and dealers. Entrepreneurs but outside of the "9-5" grind. See El mechanico. I would call them hustlers, mercurials, scorpios, dynamos

Then there are the romanticists who appeal to an idealism about being men. See Gmanifesto. That would require words like G, Cavalier, Captain, Don.

That's why I like Alpha Men's Society. People will have a general idea of what it is, but will have to ask if they want more specifics. This is and of itself can be used to create interest while gaming if done correctly.

Ahem... If I may pontificate for a moment.

In today's world, masculinity is consistently under attack. The convoluted feminine mind has been unleashed upon up us and, unchecked, it runs wild.

"Yeah, I banged a lot of guys in college, but I wasn't a slut or anything."
"I don't know why I'm not losing weight. I'm really trying. I mean, I did eat those six cupcakes last week, but I totally jogged almost three miles."
"I want to have the same career opportunities as men. I'm not going to work all those hours, though, cause, like, I want to have a life, too."

Words no longer mean anything, because you can simply rationalize the meaning away. So, it ends up that everything has to be qualified. What kind of man are you? Are you a bro? Are you a hipster? Are you thugged out? Instead of focusing on things that improve themselves and the world around them, too many men have resorted to wearing some sort of costume-like identity just to find a place in the world and be recognized by women. That shit is adolescent. If you want to wear a polo shirt with popped collar or skinny jeans or baggy jeans, that's fine, find your own style. Style, however, should be about how you address the world and not about how the world imposes an identity upon you. Otherwise, life just turns into a contest to see who can be the biggest clown at the circus.

The most subversive thing you can do today is to speak in simple, plain language. The most subversive thing you can do right now is to just say what you mean, without qualifiers, without meaningless adjectives, without hesitation, and most importantly, without retreat.

So I say that we simply call ourselves "Men," because that's exactly what we are. Men.

Every man should have standards. Every man should be free to pursue the type of women to whom he is attracted without being lambasted by the shaming language of feminists and the meaningless pap of fat-positivism. Ever man should strive to carve out his own niche in the world, to find the life that gives him pleasure and not be guilted into submission by those who tell is to "grow up" and be "real men." Even a term like "real man" no longer has any meaning. It's been hijacked and is being held in pudgy feminists hands.

It's time to take it back!

I agree with this completely. Giving us a name is giving the feminists and manginas a target they can refer to. Without a name, we deny them a target.

Also, we should go beyond claiming the title of "Man" for ourselves - we need to take it away from those who have renounced it. The omegas, manboobs and manginas of the world do not deserve to be called "Men".

Whenever I see a manboob on the street I shake my head and sigh "That is NOT a man..."

I always liked "game guy." It's straight and to the point, and not faggy like "pickup artist." It also captures the thing that everybody on this forum has in common, using game to bang girls, without taking a stand on whether they're into other aspects of the "lifestyle" like travel, fitness, other "red pill" beliefs, etc.

"Uncles". Everyone has a cool ass uncle. I've got one that designs laser guidance systems for smart bombs, and another one runs a software company, restores Dodge Chargers, and just left his wife for a 22 year old. Uncles, as an idea, embody a vision, "The Cool Uncle". There's also always something slightly shady about them, something they don't reveal; a dark side. Plus it's got a "creepy" ring to it, which is perfect for us, since I guarantee we're all considered "creepy" by mainstream american sluts.

I actually just thought of this before realizing Uncle is under Roosh's handle. But I can totally see it. Uncle Tuthmosis, Uncle Speakeasy, Uncle Mechanico. Something fitting about it.

The first thing that comes to mind is "masculinist". I don't like it though because it brings to mind the opposite of feminism (a spot taken by MRAs), and I don't want to play into that paradigm. However, it is exactly what we are. We celebrate being men and do everything we can to become better men. Hell, if it sticks maybe we can get the idea of feminism changed from man hating lesbians to women who take pride in knowing how to cook, sew, and other feminine pursuits. Then we can redefine today's feminists what they really are, FRAs.

As for the other suggestions so far. My vote goes to "First Men". I do agree that we should probably look for a word in a language that isn't English.

I'm digging "uncles" and "maxamilists," personally I've been using "gamesman" or "man of leisure" (since it has a sixties playboy style ring to it).

Maybe, but also maybe not. You don't know who I really am. I could be some introverted loser, posting all of this from my mom's basement and the only pussy I could be seeing is from internet porn.

Some of these names are just a bit too self-congratulatory. We're knee deep in the tide of decadent culture, where people think they should be handed the world on a silver platter just because they got out of bed in the morning, and it's still rising. To simply call yourself a man and assert your excellence through actions is to resist that tide.

Also, I've noticed myself doing this a lot. Whenever I refer to myself or to others that I respect, I tend to use the word man. When I'm talking about those that I find silly or trivial, I use terms like "guys" or "dudes."

Renaissance Men is not bad, but the term looks into the past, not the future. Plus it assumes we're artists.

We could play with the word Renaissance and made it Renaissansex Man, but it may not sound well.

Other suggestion: RAG - Renaissance Alpha Guy or RAM - Renaissance Alpha Male

Or how about the word 'polymath' which means almost the same as "Renaissance Man" but doesn't have that historical or artistic connotation? We could make it Sex Polymath, Alpha Polymath, Love Polymath, Pussy Polymath, or something like that.

I like the word Conquistador. Conquistadores were the guys who served the Portuguese and Spanish empires, they were adventurers, soldiers, merchants, explorers who navigated, discovered and also conquered new places all over the world. They created new routes for navigation and business and banged pristine women of undiscovered ethnicities. They constantly pushed the limits in such a a hostile and underdeveloped world. See it here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Conquistador . At least in Portuguese (probably in the other languages too) this word also can figuratively mean a seducer. So we could call ourselves Modern Conquistadors or something.

I'm serious about an actual organization we can call ourselves what ever the fuck we want and we will not be thrown in with puas or sex tourist.

Yesterday I cornered a Shriner in my office and grilled him pretty good. I asked him about shit. Shit that happens and fucked up shit he said yeah we have our lawyers and some judges....No shit! We need the kind of power they have. Does anyone fuck with them? No. Look at another group the Outlaw bike clubs..Idiots and everyone fucks with them. What are they about? Peacocking and getting pussy. They actually get more time when they get busted for being part of the group. I think a legit organization needs to be formed or were just going to be sex tourists and treated like them. God forbid when our stuff gets us sent to court one day we're not ready..

Traditional Masculinists (TM's) or perhaps Modern Masculinists (MM's) would be more appropriate)
The New Masculinists
TIML (Traditional Independent Masculine Lifestyle) or MIML (Modern Independent Masculinist Lifestyle)

I think it's funny that you portray outlaw bikers as "peacocking" [Image: lol.gif]

I guess you're kinda right. They dress how they dress in order incite a reaction in people.
Everyone is running some kinda game to get pussy.

Giving yourself a title is always self-congratulatory.

You distinguish between "guys" and "men", with men being the title of honor.

If we are going to use a title, then there will always be the title of honor and the title of dishonor. Simply calling ourselves "men" does not confer honor because most people will have no idea what we're referring to.

You could be onto something here. A union of sorts. Unions need a few key players, from henchmen, to negotiatiors, to attorneys. I'm starting to imagine what our organization looks like:

We need hookups in real estate for pussy timeshares
We need attorneys for, god-forbid, false rape charges, immigration issues, possible assault charges...
A few good henchmen
Hookups for nightlife venues (I got this)
Hookup in a rental car company
Concierge for booking flights, finding the best rates, love motels on lockdown, etc
Hookups in dope clothing stores
Hookups for special events, concerts, festivals, VIP access, etc.

This could be a full-blown organization with member dues and a strict code of conduct. Count me in.

Since the goal is to be long lived, have above average intelligence, above average bravery, above average social skills, above average survival skills (business & in life) maximized looks, maximized fitness, understanding of human nature in general, and surrounding environment and socila setting in general, I would say "Dúnedain". Like the legendary warriors in the Tolkien books. Aragon, etc. In fact, Dúnedain Players! Men of the West!
