5	How do I stop people from bullying me verbally and stop caring about people? You have to ask the question why? And break things down. People opinions matter a lot to me hence I want to please everyone and not seem like a bad person. How do I stop caring about people's perceptions? You are basing your sense of worth through external validation. The easiest, quickest, and extreme way of dealing with this, is saying "fuck everyone, I don't need anyone to make me happy because I can make myself happy". But, you really have to believe this. You have to believe that you don't …	/r/MGTOW	16/04/17 10:51 PM
3	Most terrifying final thought: "My life ended. And nobody noticed." "They need you right now. But when they don't, they'll cast you out, like a leper." Never forget one of the most important fundamental philosophies of mgtow: self-worth. Men are defined by their utility and capability. Therefore, don't care how your capability is perceived by others. Reinforce your resolve and philosophies. Be cold, calculated, structured, and become the impenetrable man. There needs to be order to tame the chaos. It is your rationality vs your wild irrational instincts.	/r/MGTOW	16/04/17 07:33 PM
1	MGTOWs are introspective hedonists. But I'm the exact contrary of an hedonist. And I see hedonism as the enemy of freedom. I agree. I think about it this way, there is the instant gratification instinct and the male dominance instinct. Both of these instincts will make you feel good. Watching porn and casually playing your video games will give you that emotional high and spike. Let's call it active happiness. On the other hand, learning an instrument or working out will give your life meaning and fulfillment. We'll call that resting-state/overall/passive happiness. The problem is you cannot be instantly gratified e…	/r/MGTOW	16/04/17 07:07 PM
1	A question about millennials. They have grown up in a superficial instant gratification impulse driven society. Why put in the work to grow when you can just skip all of it. The matrix of entertainment is immersive and deceptive. You can live vicariously off the protagonists in tv shows, movies, and videos games. Your ego can feed off the success of talented people you watch on youtube or in sports. You can be sexually satisfied through porn. And all this take no work. They engage in the delusion of fantasy. Actually growing…	/r/MGTOW	07/04/17 10:21 PM
1	Women are also tired of womens shit. The issue is men and women. Men built everything. Men gave women rights. Men gave women everything. We now live in a gynocentric society with rabid feminism and political correctness. Women cannot be challenged. The current state of the mating system is rigged against men, beyond just the court system.	/r/MGTOW	07/04/17 11:18 AM
2	Women are also tired of womens shit. I don't see why MGTOW discussion would be limited by gender, if you are concerned with that. This is not a safe space, at least I don't think it is. How do you define "typical female behavior" and "feminine shit"? Because what I have a distaste for goes beyond surface level traits, it's aspects of female nature. Meaning traits that all women have. AWALT, all female will follow female nature. Hypergamy is the big one, but there are more. Female psychology does differ from male psychology. If you …	/r/MGTOW	07/04/17 11:03 AM
3	Outsider Question The way I see it is, romance is a waste of time. Women love men mostly for his capability to gather resources. Well, that encompasses a lot of traits about a man. It describes his wealth, looks, status, skills, intellect, work ethic, ambition, discipline, health, genetics, and dominance. Some people will say, "Oh, she doesn't love you, she loves your money and utility". Well, she actually does love you. Money is external, yes, but your capability to acquire money is part of who you are. This cap…	/r/MGTOW	07/04/17 09:12 AM
1	My thoughts on the sub I propose to look beyond the surface level and see that mgtow comes in many forms. I personally carry no ill-will towards women. I look at it from an objective outlook, humans are just following human nature. Mgtow is not a movement, group, or ideology. We are individual men following our own path. Some may carry misogynistic views, some may enjoy denigrating female nature, and some will just focus on self-improvement. I do fear that the mgtow label will develop a toxic brand, but there is not m…	/r/MGTOW	02/01/17 11:15 AM
1	why does this sub hate women? I assume those men are just in a red pill rage. Some of them feel a need to justify and reinforce the mgtow way by denigrating women in an emotionally-driven immature way. The meme culture definitely shows. These are men who have suffered. Pain can lead to hate. Maybe some of them actually hate women instead of just female nature. There is a distinct difference. edit: however, the sub on a whole does not hate women.	/r/MGTOW	02/01/17 10:41 AM
2	What is MGTOW? A mgtow is a man who defines his own worth and standards to live by, independent of the influence of societal and female expectations. As long as you don't open up your heart to women, you'll be fine. Once you pursue romantic love, you create a void in your heart for the female to fill. Your sense of worth will begin to shift to be less about your individual path, but the needs and approval of the female and thereby, the gynocentric society. edit: If you worship sex and the pursuit of it, it can…	/r/MGTOW	31/12/16 06:01 AM
2	What defines your self-worth? If we lose courage, then we are a slave to fear. I like that resolution. Years ago, I purposely abandoned my group of friends and disconnected from society. I realized I was too dependent on them to fill my void. I soon left women after that. Maybe, I'll love again, once I reach the pinnacle of my worth. Right now, relationships only serve as a distraction.	/r/MGTOW	31/12/16 05:29 AM
1	What defines your self-worth? There is the man who wants life beyond woman, and walks down that path. There is also the man who wants life beyond woman, but sees no path. So he is forever stuck in the void. I can't speak for op, but I think it's more complex than the realization of practical.	/r/MGTOW	30/12/16 10:15 PM
1	What defines your self-worth? Overcoming a base emotion and impulse with reason is hard for sure. I always speak of the ideal, but I know it cannot be entirely reached. I have animal instincts, therefore I will react to it in some way. However, shame, guilt, and regret, is something more complex/abstract that enters more into the realm of the thinking spirit. I can think my way out of regret through a matter of perspective. Impulse is harder for me. But, I guess it's different for everyone. If you cannot find anything to fil…	/r/MGTOW	30/12/16 10:01 PM
1	What defines your self-worth? You speak of self-worth in relation to others. I did not consider that side of the question, probably because I am so self-absorbed. If I had time to ponder, I would say I would not sacrifice myself for any number of people. In moments of fleeting strict time constraints like the train scenario, I might instinctually jump to save a young beautiful woman. When out in public, I always try to keep my guard up, to not respond to such slavish impulses. I left society because I cared too much about pl…	/r/MGTOW	30/12/16 02:21 PM
3	Please help a lost man! Hi there. From what I read, it seems like you have problems with external validation, shame, and prospects for the mgtow life. Let me just tell you this first, there is happiness beyond the red pill rage and depression. Validation: Most mgtow are aware that male societal standards and worth are born from the false doctrine, worship, and pedestalization of love and sex. Therefore, we reject the pursuit of women. Fuck society's perception of what a man should be, I am a free man, I define my own w…	/r/MGTOW	26/12/16 07:32 AM
1	This shower thought resonated with me. https://www.reddit.com/r/Showerthoughts/comments/5kb5cw/a_lot_of_relationships_start_off_with_dont_ever/?st=IX5LT7LS&sh=573ccae7 I felt the same way when I first discovered mgtow. Being free is such an amazing feeling that most men will never get to experience. To not be a slave to women, men, society, family, friends, strangers, anyone. To cut the ties that vigorously bind your happiness to others. Mgtow means something different to everyone. To me, it is the acquisition, comprehension, and systematization of knowledge to suppress and manipulate irrationality/impulse with rationality, in the pursuit of autonomous happine…	/r/MGTOW	26/12/16 05:45 AM
