Another quote, from Buzzfeed--he threw his coffee on some girls that didn't smile at him:
“They deserved the punishment I gave them. It was such a pity that my latte wasn’t hot enough to burn them. Those girls deserved to be dumped in boiling water for the crime of not giving me the attention and adoration I rightly deserve!”
When I was 20-22, I would not have given him the time of day. I was more open to dating wealthy men then (I didn't care about a man's socioeconomic status at that time point), but his phenotype turns me off. His face is really broad and that makes him look untrustworthy to me.
And this line of reasoning is why they never try, like I said.
No.
Rejection needs to be minimized.
You are saying, "Rejection is irrational. The fear of rejection is what holds men back."
I am saying, "It is very real, but part of the game. Expect it and expect lots of it."
If Mr. Eliot Rodger or whoever had realized that, then he wouldn't be out shooting people up. Of course, he's also psychotic and arrogant, but putting that aside, yes, he needed to minimize rejection.

I never said rejection is irrational. Rejection is a part of life FOR EVERYONE. I'm saying imagined rejection is irrational. You have to try before you go shooting up a school because of what you imagined.
He's very good looking but his personality is really terrible. He sounded obnoxious and condescending on that video.
Also, his constant display of wealth wouldn't have worked in his favor. Obviously, this "superiority" aspect of his was a front to compensate his insecurities.
Most guys get rejected at least once, so the fact that he took this so personally show how insecure and mentally fragile he was.
Nah. They are like luxury cars. He was about status symbols.
Its obviously about more than just "status symbols". I skimmed through his little manifesto and this confused young man had major identity issues. He worshipped his (white) father's "superiority ability to attract many types of women and felt inadequate in his own (Eurasian) inabilities to attract the same types of women that his father easily had access to.
After skimming his manifesto I was reminded of the writings of the poet and artist Kip Fulbeck. He has written in great detail about being the male child of a WM/AW and the issues of self hatred.

I've minimized rejection by not approaching or talking to women. That has left me frustrated.
