Welcome to Man Making

Published by Man Making on September 6, 2016

By Frank Parlato Jr.


Welcome to www.manmaking.com

Are you unmanly, cowardly, weak? This site may help you to be strong, to preserve the manly fire within, to look upward, to hold your breath, and gain strength, to go out into the world with absolute courage, to shut off that filthy television set which promotes effiminate behavior, to stop looking inordinately at the body of woman with greedy, weak and sickening lustful eyes and be a man, a giver of strength to one and all. Be chaste and come and rule nature, inner and outer.

Are you depressed, lacking in vigor, failing to succeed? Then stop your filthy habits at once. Stop groveling at the feet of woman. Banish this weakness of the knees. A brave man never bends the knees. Be celibate. Be chaste, and you’ll never be weak.

Swami Vivekananda left Calcutta to make his second visit to the West. He was accompanied by his English disciple, Sister Nivedita, and his brother monk, Swami Turiyananda. It was on the steamer, on the Hoogli river, headed toward the Bay of Bengal, and on the first day of the journey, that the Swami made his now famous pronouncement. Although controversial, I’ll let it stand as originally quoted, and as an introduction to the entirety of this site….

Yes, the older I grow, the more everything seems to me to lie in manliness. This is my new gospel. Do even evil like a man! Be wicked, if you must, on a grand scale!
– Swami Vivekananda

About the authors

Toni Natalie spent eight years with Keith Raniere, as his girlfriend and business partner. She watched as he  transformed himself from multi-level marketing guru into the cult leader known as Vanguard. When Toni finally left him, he threatened her: “I will see you dead or in jail.” He was half right.

Chet Hardin is the only journalist to play a midnight game of volleyball with actress Allison Mack, Seagram heiress Clare Bronfman, and the now-notorious Keith Raniere.
