I don’t know how “real” any of this is, but this what I’ve been able to collect on this matter…
If you are connected to the internets, you have probably heard these messages left on some unsuspecting woman’s answering machine.
The messages have been attributed to Dmitri the Lover, a professional seducer of women and teacher of seducers of women. Here is a screen shot of his wholly misogynistic website:
Here, too, is a news article detailing how he lost his medical license due to inappropriate sexual advances and has been accused of rape many times ‘n other great stuff.
Thanks to Jason S., Brett W., and CoRri V. for the links and info!
NEW! Still at it, a reader alerted us to Dmitri’s “meeting” this January:
THERE IS ONLY ONE OPPORTUNITY EACH YEAR FOR HORNY MEN TO SEDUCE WOMEN THIS INSECURE, GROSSLY UNDERFUCKED, AND HIGHLY IMPRESSIONABLE.
More (his emphasis):
As a MEDICAL DOCTOR, Dimitri The Lover is extremely cognizant of the fact that studies have show over 60% of women worldwide suffer from a psychological disorder at some time during their lives. In Canada’s northern climate, January is the worst month of the year for psychological symptoms, primarily because a decrease in the level of sunlight and shortened hours of daylight cause “Seasonal Affective Disorder”. Exacerbated by both the post-holiday psychological letdown from unrealistically high pre-holiday expectations, and the effects of alcohol withdrawal on the neural pathways, this condition causes many women to fall into a MILD REACTIVE DEPRESSION. Therefore, these once proud sluts become insecure and begin to doubt the value of their existing relationships, which even in the best of times are just barely adequate to meet their psychosexual needs.

I'm not able to e-mail you so I figure I'll post this here. This post on LJ http://community.livejournal.com/topmodel/2133127.html#cutid1 has the latest photos from the latest episode of Britain's Next Top Model. I thought you might find it interesting because you talked about exotic and used that Vogue editorial with the white model and the natives.

These voicemails are part of a viral marketing campaign for a documentary about Dimitri The Lover. I am sure of it because I live in Toronto and both my friend and I were interviewed for the documentary back in July. We were walking down the street and some film crew asked us to see some movie footage of Dimitri talking and give an opinion on camera. You can hear clues in the voicemails that they are staged, such as when he kinda tries not to laugh at certain parts, mentions the film he is working on in another part, and goes way over the top to absurd proportions in the second voicemail. I work at a marketing company and all of my colleagues feel that the way in which these "viral voicemails" were released was meant to create months of notoriety during the lead up to the film. It's quite brilliant! I can't wait to see myself on camera!!! Also, I saw Dimitri in person during the filming. He's very attractive and appeared to be quite charming when chatting with women. One of the production assistants told me that he is a "really nice guy" and quite "harmless".

I just love how he blames the lack of respond phone calls on "issues". As if something has to be wrong with the women to now want to be with him.

Has anyone viewed the "BANNED ANIMATIONS" section of http://dimitrithelover.com? These are some of the most disgusting examples of misogyny I have ever seen.
Kimmy — August 7, 2009
Those animations are by far the funniest things I have ever viewed! I actually found a direct link to them. My favourite is the "Crucifixion of Dimitri" where the feminists attack him and his "Latter Day Sluts" (lol): http://dimitrithelover.com/animation.html

Ugh. I listened to these voice messages out of curiosity... My goodness~ They call this guy a 'seducer of women'? How do women not hear the cocky, condescending sneer in his every word? His attempts to 'win women over' are so stupid that they ought to be satire. Well, now I know that if a guy ever talked to me in a similar fashion, I would have to resist the temptation to kick him in the face.

Have you seen the trailer for the new Dimitri The Lover movie? It turns out the voicemails were fake viral marketing for a film by the Borat/Bruno/Religulous producer Brad Goodman. Here is the trailer: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=neW-_HJ4Vjc
