No kidding,
I had no knowledge of the acronym, nor it's meaning... I was somewhat familiar with the basic concept, but I was not aware of the "movement" (so to speak) I am an older guy, and understood the notion of a "confirmed bachelor", but I was beginning to think that "thinking being alone is better", was just something I had dreamed up for myself.. haha I had decided several years ago (after my divorce from a 33 year long marriage), that "women" were simply not worth the investment (emotionally, financially, etc.), I realized that I could be happier on my own, in total control of my life decisions. Anyway, I never thought that apparently millions of other guys feel the same way. I certainly don't hate/dislike women (still love the physical part whenever possible ;)) , but "relationships" in any conventional sense is something I plan to keep in my rear-view mirror. I do what I want, when I want, how I want.... FREEDOM IS BETTER than anything, including "love" and certainly sex |

All that bullshit and you don't bother explaining what the letters stand for?
And no, I have just enough give a shit to comment here and not enough to google what you left out. Fucking stupid. At least we both agree you'll die alone. |

WTFAYTA?
What the fuck are you talking about? See how easy it is? |

You are doing it wrong. I have freedom and an awesome marriage. I wouldn’t trade having a partner for life.
ETA: especially when that partner is as amazing as my wife. |

I always thought it was Max Gross Take Off Weight. But I'm a pilot, so I always think aviation.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Men_Going_Their_Own_Way
Men Going Their Own Way (MGTOW /'m?gta?/) is a mostly pseudonymous online community[3][4] of men supported by websites and social media presences[5] cautioning men against serious romantic relationships with women, especially marriage.[6][7] The community is part of what is more broadly termed the manosphere. MGTOW have "...vowed to stay away from women, stop dating and not have children".[9] MGTOW focuses on men's self-ownership rather than changing the status quo through activism and protest, making MGTOW distinct from the men's rights movement.[10] The Southern Poverty Law Center has identified MGTOW as a male supremacist group.[11] |

There's a lot of crazy going on these days in the internet. The MGTOW movement is nothing compared to the incel movement, which has already spawned several shootings. Elliot Rodger is now literally worshiped as some sort of prophet/saint to them.

MGTOW is an anti West psyop. Look who it's always directed at. Don't do it. There are things more important than us as individuals.

I dunno....
I had (before I fucked up bad...) a good 33 year long marriage, kids, house, cars, $$$.. pretty much "everything" the American dream can offer a man But, after learning a few VERY HARD life lessons, I realized that the "system" in this country, this culture is terribly slanted against men, rather much in favor of the females. I also learned A LOT about "women" after almost 6 decades on this planet........ Call me loser, call me "beta" WTF you wish, but young(er) men be warned and NO, I am not gay or :coming out"... haha I am simply beginning to understand there is a better way than the bill of goods that I was sold ever since my childhood |

I thought MGTOW were about not getting into relationships, not going celebent (sp?)

Everything is becoming polarized in this damn world.
How about you just meet a bunch of chicks and have some standards/be picky for the ones you enter into relationships with? I'm sure a bunch of people have gotten burned in relationships for the last ten thousand years... why just swear off women? That's dumb. I go on dates with girls, sometimes it lasts one date or fifty. If you find yourselves at an impassable crossroads, just politely part ways. (I realize someone will say "I couldn't do that with this chick bro, she's crazy!" Well, if she's real crazy you shoulda screened better and if she's a whore you shouldn't be emotionally involved with whores. |

No it's different, MGTOWs can get laid to some extent. Incels couldn't even if their lives dependent on it. View Quote View All Quotes View All Quotes Quoted:
Quoted:
MGTOW are incels with a strong case of sour grapes. Sour Grapes
In an old fable by Aesop, a hungry fox noticed a bunch of juicy grapes hanging from a vine. After several failed attempts to reach the grapes, the fox gave up and insisted that he didn't want them anyway because they were probably sour. Nowadays when somebody expresses sour grapes, it means that they put down something simply because they can't have it. |

In before that one Roland guy who freakin loves talking about it View Quote Man you guys get so butthurt over it. You all want to talk all this shit then go off and cry about it when someone calls you on it - maybe not you personally, I have no idea but the other guys sure get upset over getting called on it.... Sorry, not sorry I call out stupidity when I see it. Deal with it ETA- you could have at least tagged me in this, I almost missed the call out! One last thing- ask yourself how many threads I've started on the topic (0), then go see how many threads the he-man woman hater (MGTOW/TRP) club has started (100s) and ask yourself finally who are the ones obsessed with the topic. |
