Remember Pick-up Artist (PUA) Academy? The “school” that was forced to deactivate its Facebook page after people found out that they were teaching students that women want to be forced to have sex? Well, they’re back, and things aren’t any better.

PUA Academy CEO Hussein Meneses was on the morning radio show Good Times With Mo on Magic 89.9 today where he was roasted for his academy’s “delusional” teachings. The show regularly invites controversial figures, with the DJs often calling them out on their B.S.

In the show, DJs Hannah Bacani and Mo Twister illustrated a scenario of what happens when men push women too hard into having sex with them. Bottom line, it sounded like rape.

But when asked if he believed he was promoting rape culture, Meneses said no.

In October, some women shared they were allegedly being stalked by PUA Academy students. Some also alleged that these students would post nude pictures of their “targets” after having sex with them.

In the radio show, Meneses was also asked how many “no’s” it takes for him to stop trying to initiate sexual intercourse and he said: “When she says no, like really mad, like really, really mad.”

Mo Twister said that Meneses sounded like a sexual predator. DJ KC Montero schooled Meneses too.

“So you really have to get her mad [in order for you to stop],” Montero said. “I know what you’re saying, but I’m not going to teach [men] how to continue to push. Like if it’s no, OK.”

“It’s not up to me to push it, it’s up to her to bring it back. And I’m not going to teach someone, ‘well if she’s not bringing it back, this is how you push it,'” Montero added.

Meneses was also grilled for his previous statement which went viral in 2018 where he said some women want to be forced to have sex.

He was captured on video saying in a mix of English and Filipino that there’s a point “when you’re pushing and pulling on the bed, you’ll see if she’s into you already. But if she says, ‘Don’t touch me,’ like that, it also depends.”

“Some girls just play hard to get. They want domineering [men]. Dominant guys, so that the guilt is with you, not them.

“It’s like [they think] ‘Why did I give it up right away.’ It’s better if you’re the one at fault, like, ‘It’s because you forced me, that’s why something happened.’

“Something like that, right. That’s why they like being forced. Then, there are other women that are like ‘Go, fuck me already,’” Meneses said.

Despite the backlash, Meneses still believes this is true. He said in the radio show today: “Most of girls will never say, come do it [sex] with me, they will say no don’t do it. That’s why it’s all about how they say it. How they respond.”

To this, Mo Twister said: “You, brother, said the exact freaking thing you said in the video.”

Apparently, men have to shell out the big bucks to go to Meneses’ disgraced school. He revealed in the radio show that their one-month program is priced at  PHP48,000 (US$926.77).

DJs Montero and Bacani acknowledged how uncomfortable it was to be in the DJ booth with Meneses and another PUA Academy instructor.

Montero said on Twitter: “I like how @djmotwister likes to roast people, literally light them on fire and me and @HannahBacani have to sit here in the same burning room.”

Bacani added a meme to illustrate her mood throughout the interview:

Mo Twister is currently in Las Vegas where he does the radio show, saving him from all of the awkwardness.

Other netizens also shared their thoughts on the interview — and it wasn’t pretty.

@hijadeyrijes said on Twitter: “PUA Academy is a sad pathetic collection of men trying to make themselves feel important in an attempt to run from the fact that they’re sexually frustrated assholes who will one day get what they deserve. One day, you sick fucks. One day.”

“I’ve never heard of PUA Academy until Mo Twister’s radio show where he was roasting the CEO,” @geloarnaldo said.

@Mrcxism said: “Alpha Male -the dominant male animal in a particular group. I did say if you enroll in PUA Academy you’ll become an animal.”

@ishdayto added: “I’m living for @djmotwister dragging PUA Academy and calling them out on their delusional beliefs and methods.”

“I cannot believe these founders of the PUA Academy don’t think they’re doing anything wrong. What’s even worse is there are guys who actually enroll in their program!” said @she_abel.

“[L]istening to the radio otw to work and they were interviewing the head of [PUA] [A]cademy and god!! I wanted to barf in the middle of [EDSA] because they don’t believe that they’re sexual predators. So disgusting,” said @che0nsA88.
