They're not shaming tactics, you're embarrassing the rest of us with your cuck ways. "Going your own way" looks awfully like surrendering especially when you're denying your basic biological imperative. The only rational reason I can see anyone following mgtow is to provide an ideal based reason for their virginity. Fuck the fairy tales. I'm an atheist too. Just realize the good that comes from the system and ignore the other nonsense.
Adapt to the world by having balls and changing things to be the way you want and not self pitying and withdrawing like a woman. Be like a Muslim man, the culture is predefined for you. Fitting in is easy and the women are for fucking after you've successfully completed a day of whatever the fuck you want to do. Women are but an afterthought, to be cherished and loved of course but only after you've done whatever you've wanted.
If you're not getting women to do what you want them to do, that's a cuck. Self pity and crying victim are the most feminine traits ever. I have no idea what mental gymnastics you have to go through to come up with a perspective like mtgow and not see it as being a total cuck. Seriously, turn to Islam, you're embarrassing us all. At the very least be a redpiller
