Oh no...I completely disagree with you. Not about the concept of prioritizing stress reduction, hydration, sleep, a healthy diet and exercise. Every solo man should prioritize all of the above - that's just common sense. I disagree completely with the methods you've prescribed and highly doubt they will achieve the desired outcome. I'm also not calling you a moron. I'm telling you you don't know what you're talking about when it comes to health and that I think you're lying about a lot of what y…

You didn't really take into consideration... No, I absolutely did. I just didn't want to type a novel, but since we're going down the rabbit hole... It doesn't matter what your motivations are and it doesn't matter if you're following a carnivorous diet for 2 weeks or 10 years, our digestive system and the human body in general isn't designed for it, period. Now if you're overweight, that adds another wrinkle to the equation. If you've been eating the kind of garbage that would make you overweig…

Just meat. Only meat. No. This is not only wrong and extreme, it's potentially very harmful on several levels and just as bad as suggesting veganism is the shining path to health. Ever hear of diverticulitis? Maybe colorectal cancer? Humans are opportunistic omnivores that require a BALANCED diet, including lots of fiber (which works with water to keep your digestive system working properly) and vitamins/nutrients that are not found in meat. You want to coach people on diet? Tell them to cut out…

I've seen videos... I'm not trying to shit on your dreams, but I believe you have an idealistic/romanticized perspective about the realities of living off grid as I did when I first considered doing the same. Living off grid is hard, but doing it solo is damn near impossible. The fact that you mentioned internet before electricity is telling about how much you've actually thought the realities of living off grid through. Do you know how much it costs to drill a well? Do you know how to fix or re…

See, the thing she can't seem to understand is that not everyone chooses to make their perceived victimhood the dominant aspect of their identity. As a female, she is part of a protected class. Women have never had it better than they do at this point in history, yet she remains either incapable of or unwilling to accept the fact that her world view is not supported by objective truth (not her truth or my truth, THE truth).

Absolutely. Carpenter: Of all the trades, carpenters are most likely the ones to become site superintendents, custom home builders, teachers or inspectors. You learn everything about building structures, but you can also specialize in say log homes, timber frame construction or get into side-hustles like furniture building. Most carpenters I know also do concrete, masonry, drywall and roofing and because of their wide knowledge base, eventually move into general contracting or running sites. If …

I'm a Journeyman Sheet Metal Mechanic, a licensed gas fitter, and have worked for a government body that regulates apprenticeship. I still work in the construction industry, but not on the tools. The one thing I always tell anyone considering a career in the trades is this - as soon as you decide what trade you want to get into, start planning your exit strategy. Especially with construction trades, there are very few guys over 50 on any site and most of those guys will be in pretty rough shape.…

I'm not trying to shit on your post 'cause that sammy looks tasty, but I wouldn't consider that eating well. I see bread (bad for gut health and therefore brain health), processed meat (carcinogenic) and lemonade, which is basically just liquid sugar. If you want to eat well, eat paleo. As MGTOW, if we're choosing to face life solo, we have to take care of ourselves. There are few better things that we can do to improve our well being than a good diet. Just my 2 cents.

I said he should discuss it with his doctor, not take his doctor's word as gospel. There's no justification (other than laziness) in the present day for failure to educate oneself, considering the resources we have at our disposal. Having said that, I put more stock in what my doctor has to say on medical issues (I have a very good one) than some random person on Reddit.

I worked on a job site on a university campus several years ago. We were told in no uncertain terms that if we were caught staring at a female for more than 3 seconds, we could be charged with harassment and banned form working on university grounds. Even if we were just gapping out, lost in thought, if a female perceived that we were leering, that's all it would take. Basically, just stare at the ground.

Vasectomies are actually discussed out here quite regularly. As with any surgery and despite minimization by those that have had positive experiences, there are risks and lots of horror stories out there...just do a search. To each their own, but lack of self control (condoms are very inexpensive and have the added benefit of preventing STDs) is a pretty stupid reason for unnecessary surgery in my opinion.

The simple truth is that we exist in an age where very few people bother to think for themselves and would rather accept the prepackaged narrative provided for them by political, educational, media and corporate elites on any given topic (COVID is another prime example). Anything presented as out of step with leftist orthodoxy is lustily vilified, especially when doing so often provides the opportunity to appear virtuous by broadcasting the "correct" opinion for others to see, no matter how disc…

Entertainment! was released when I was 1. I found Gang of Four through post-punk revival bands (The Rapture, Bloc Party, Interpol, The Strokes, The Bravery). I haven't actually listened to Gang of Four in a while, but as a result of your post, I'm on my way down the 80s rabbit hole tonight (Ministry, New Order, Siouxsie and the Banshees...listening to Mothers talk by Tears for Fears as I write this), so thanks for the soundtrack to my Friday night.

That rare essence (of independence) is what I live for. I got what I asked for. Do I get the bonus points? I've always found it comical how so many men out here talk about "leaving the plantation" while in the same breath extolling the virtues of the 80-hour work week and remaining completely oblivious to the fact that if modern society ground to a halt tomorrow, they would most likely be dead within 96 hours.

I'm a tradesman. Most of my work was in the city and I prefer living in a rural area. My commute used to be between 3-5 hours round trip every day. If it weren't for traffic, that same commute would have been about 2 hours round trip. I basically had enough time during the week to go to work, come home, squeeze in a quick workout (if I felt like it, which was rare), eat dinner, wash up, relax for about an hour, then go to bed to get enough sleep (which was poor quality due to stress) to get up a…

Look at this hero. I'm sure your boyfriend appreciates you sticking up for him. What you just described is AVOIDING a punch, slipping a punch, or bobbing, not taking a punch. Apparently training hasn't done much to prevent you from being a dumb fuck, so I'm not sure why you figure it would help anyone else. Maybe read a little further down or a little further up for some context, genius. Or like, just reading in general. Might help out where training failed you with the whole dumb fuck thing.

People think that Buddhism is all about non-violence and kindness, but they're just part of the larger whole that is the real focus of Buddhist practice - self-mastery. Never forget, Shaolin Kung-Fu was also developed by Buddhist monks. If more MGTOWs would try to understand the truth of Buddhist teaching - whether or not they actually adopt the practice/religion - we'd have a lot more happy men out there.

First of all, I'm not your "bro". Secondly, I didn't assume anything about what you meant. I asked you a simple question and instead of providing a simple answer, you get your knickers in a twist and go on defense. If you're that fragile and don't want to be called out on your bullshit, don't post or comment. This is literally the opposite of a leap in logic. Boxers target the head with greater than 50% of the "shots" they take. Those are mostly sub-concussive blows. Repeated sub-concussive blow…

boxing teaches you (among other things) how to take a shot Care to clarify what you mean? Boxing will certainly toughen you up a bit, but sustaining repeated sub-concussive blows to your head over years is going to result in some form of cognitive impairment (CTE), no matter how good your chin is and even if you keep sparring light. If it can happen to soccer players, imagine what a recreational boxer's brain looks like after 20 years.

I started Muay Thai @ 38 (42 now) when I became disillusioned with the gym. Always wanted to try it since watching Bloodsport (Paco played by Paulo Tocha) as a kid.

It’s a healthier... That, my friend, is patently false. You're welcome to your opinions and I would never disparage someone for making the moral choice to go vegetarian or vegan, but your assertion that a diet free of animal fat and protein is healthier is simply not true.

Everything you've written can be said about any martial art.

I'm a bit of an introvert and really don't like people in my personal space, so I'm sure that's part of it, but it's just too close quarters for me.

It injects you with things that help your immune system create antibodies against the virus.

It's implies that you are incapable of making decisions based on critical thinking, logic, introspection, observation and personal experience and that your choices can only be the product of past trauma (ie heart broken, bad breakup, manipulated, etc.).

Your broader issue is the need for society to provide validation for anything. If society is so morally bankrupt that it has created the conditions that have caused you to go your own way, why then are you then turning around and seeking (or wondering why you're not receiving) validation from that society? Expressing the desire for personal sovereignty while seeking validation from the very thing you are seeking sovereignty from doesn't make sense. Would you seek validation from a serial killer?…

MGTOW for me is part Buddhism and part prepper mentality. I have no interest in being a "lethal threat to the system". I just want nothing to do with it and do everything in my power to feed it as little as possible. Just live a simple life, try to be happy and do your best to limit the impact clownworld has on you. You can do that by being self-reliant, reclaiming your place in nature and decoupling from consumerism. Worked for me.

Also, read this: The Dalai Lama, when asked what surprised him most about humanity, answered "Man! Because he sacrifices his health in order to make money. Then he sacrifices money to recuperate his health. And then he is so anxious about the future that he does not enjoy the present; the result being that he does not live in the present or the future; he lives as if he is never going to die, and then dies having never really lived.

I'd rather chill. Read this: There was once a businessman who was sitting by the beach in a small Brazilian village. As he sat, he saw a Brazilian fisherman rowing a small boat towards the shore having caught quite few big fish. The businessman was impressed and asked the fisherman, “How long does it take you to catch so many fish?” The fisherman replied, “Oh, just a short while.” “Then why don’t you stay longer at sea and catch even more?” The businessman was astonished. “This is enough to feed…

I'm anti-politics. When you really look at it objectively, politics these days exists to ensure the plebs are at each other's throats while the ruling classes pillage our capital and resources. If you need an example, the racial strife infecting the west at present is really a class issue. However, because politicians see it as an opportunity to direct the anger away from the ruling classes and towards a scapegoat (working and middle-class White people) while cultivating an image and prolonging …

Never understood the appeal, myself. Far too much risk for something I can take care of for free in a couple of minutes on my own and now worry about my pecker rotting off. Phuket looks like heaven on earth to me. From all the research I've done though, it's insanely busy even during the "low season". I've also heard stories of the number of out-of-control (drunk, high, boorish behavior) tourists just ruining it for people that want to go and actually experience Thailand. I wonder if you'd agree…

Fair enough. Thanks.

Kind of going in a different direction here, but did you happen to check out any Muay Thai events, do any training or visit any gyms? I've been considering a trip to Thailand for a while now and that's what I'd be going for as opposed to the more "adult" stuff. Not really interested in the bars and think I might be happier sticking to Chaing Mai and the north.

Yup...and then there's this article from the UN that indicates that despite 97% of combat deaths since the First Gulf War being male, that women are somehow disproportionately affected. Kerstin Müller, Minister of State, Federal Foreign Office of Germany, said full and active participation of women in all political and economic decision-making, including peace processes, was a prerequisite for improvement of the current situation. Women were also indispensable agents in the process of building d…

Congrats on having the balls to step outside your comfort zone. Most people don't. One recommendation off the top, read "Crush It" and then "Crushing It" by Gary Vaynerchuk. They're great for someone on your trajectory, and very inspirational. Don't let the title throw you, but watch the video below and listen to what they say. There are so many resources available to young men today and I know my life would have been different if someone had have shown me stuff like this when I was just startin…

I think another reason why MGTOW will likely remain counterculture is the fact that many in the community take GYOW in the most literal sense possible - being mostly solitary and rejecting society as completely as is practicable. There's no interest in political activism, no interest in trying to evolve into a cohesive group with shared values, a defined goal and a willingness to support one another. Sure, there are MRAs, but they're just a bunch of ineffectual weenies that believe whining about…

I just posted something similar on r/MGTOW and woah nelly! You should have seen some of the defensive, angry responses. https://www.reddit.com/r/MGTOW/comments/d01guv/mgotw_and_materialsm/

Listen, if you're not interested in hearing anything other than some hateful nonsense, that's up to you. You're obviously a younger guy, you came out here looking for advice and I gave it. Unless you just came out her to tell a bunch of other dudes how attractive you are, but whatever.

And you sound like an angry little boy with mommy issues. Not meant to be an insult, just an observation.

So, let me try to understand. You actively avoid women and you have a 'fuck off vibe" towards them in the workplace? Engaging in misogynist behavior (and make no mistake, that's what you're doing) probably isn't doing your future any favors. I'm not saying you have to make friends with the women you work with, but treating your coworkers with hostility because of their gender is pretty unprofessional. Real men are supposed to be better than that and it comes off as thinly-veiled hatred of women …

A lot of people who find MGTOW see it as an indictment of women (and in some ways it is), but in reality, it's an indictment of society at large.

Happy to respond. This is really great. Sorry…Reddit (and all social media for that matter) noob. I feel that the human condition is only complicated because we are desperate to find or apply complexities to feel justified in our vastly inflated opinion of our own intelligence and individual importance/self-worth. Life is (or should be) simpler and therefore more fulfilling and happier than that. A bunch of dudes in Greece had the important shit figured out like 2500 years ago. We never really c…

Why is it important to have a male only space? The only reason I can think of for an identity group to need to exclude other people is because they're a bunch of cowards that are worried they might actually have to justify their bullshit. I can think of no greater encapsulation of what is wrong with our society than the concept of the "safe space". The only way we grow as human beings is being exposed to and overcoming challenging and uncomfortable circumstances, full stop. Anybody who advocates…

Do you also believe that only one side of the political debate is entitled to an opinion and the other should be silenced? Engaging in respectful discourse is how you grow intellectually and learn to understand that the person you're debating is a human being, not merely a representative of the group identity you assume they fall into. You might have your opinion changed for the better or you might just bring someone else around to your way of thinking. Neither are bad things and this prevents i…

I think it has a lot less to do with feminism than it does with the political/corporatist/media complex. Remember, it's literally their job to make sure that we're all compartmentalized into these neat and tidy identity groups with conflicting superficial interests and then fan the flames of whatever-ism. They need to keep us focused on hating one another so we forget who the real enemy is.

I think that regardless of whether you are MGTOW or not, health, fitness and nutrition is the foundation upon which the rest of your life is built. First and foremost, you're doing something that is both uncomfortable (as much as you may enjoy it, eventually) and requires a level of discipline most people simply don't have. As far as I'm concerned, it's the first step in getting comfortable with discomfort and achieving self mastery. If you can make these things part of your lifestyle, you can a…

You can kill a man, but you can't kill an idea.
