Does anybody on here subscribe to the MGTOW philosophy?

I'm just curious if anybody on here find themselves taking the red pill that is MGTOW? I see so much men on this forum who are insecure about their size & are so desperate to please women, which leads me to wonder if there's anybody on here who subscribes to the MGTOW ideology.


p.s I'm 30, haven't been on a date in forever & while i'm sexually attracted to women i avoid relationships like the plague & i think i will be a perpetual bachelor for the rest of my existence.

If you are talking pua they have been onsite fairly regularly on and off . Many of us find much in pua to be distasteful.

This pua and seductive stuff is not something what will make you happy.

Always remember, respect is everything.

I assumed everyone would know what MGTOW is, i guess i have to explain, MGTOW= men.going.their.own.way. It's basically men who aren't focusing on relationships with women but rather looking to seek fullfilment in other endeavours in life, a MGTOW have opted out of the idea of the traditional role men play in society with regards to getting married & having children.

^^ Here's one video to somewhat explain it.

Hmm for a while I think it can be good to do some retreat to reach goals in some topic. But all the time? There are also probably woman who have an similiar idea of partnership and life, so maybe this is a option if you want to have both.

Or do you want to avoid the other sex completely, like a monk?

Not really, man. I was like that when totally porn addicted. Nowadays I think I should find a good woman and have kids. I see MGTOW as a bit of a cop-out. There are good women around, you just have to look and spend effort. Expecting them to fall into your lap is ironically quite feminine.

Though if you don't want a relationship for other reasons, that's fine I suppose.

Funny thing is, I bet the more you focus on getting your life in order and not focused on women, the more you'll attract the right ones.

MGTOW is feminism for men and just as cancerous.

[Phanatic Member Find all posts View Profile Close Phanatic]

Yeah. Sure there are plenty of "Average" and lame women around. If you don't self improve how are you gonna get the good ones?

Gotta be a hero to get the princess.

I don't want to avoid the opposite sex like a monk. I think it would be perfect for me to find a woman who wants to live apart, in separate homes, monogamous to each other but more have a intimate relationship without the companionship. I really love my own space, every now & again i get lonely but i'm not sure i get lonely enough to stomach a woman being in my own space 24/7.

You want a monogamous, sexual relationship, but you don't want to cohabitate or spend too much time together? That's called dating. Why not put a lable on it and just call it what it is instead of dancing around the subject. You want a girlfriend that has her own life and place to stay, so do most women looking for a relationship. It's not hard to find either, just look for any woman in her early to mid twenties who looks like she has to work for a living and she'll meet your criteria.

I understand. Maybe there is a woman who sees things similiar. What I wouldn't do is to just look for sex or an short affair. In my opinion it's nicer to have a person with you, you like and can share things, than just go to the next woman because you don't want the closeness. It's a give and receive.

What you're describing is a FWB relationship, OP. You can call it MGTOW if you want, but it sounds like the same thing to me!

Sooner or later there will be feelings.
