MGTOW are for many of them men who've been abused by the system, victims of abusive divorces, slaves to an alimony system that should have been abolished long ago, victims of female-perpetrated domestic violence, etc. I respect their choice to avoid marriage in the future and I took the same vow - and favor the abolition of state-regulated marriage altogether, a system of female financial abuse of men that should not exist in the 21th century.

The problem is that MGTOW display a "strong man" posturing behavior like most of other right-wing anti-feminists, they see themselves as individualists, as "tough guys" and they refuse the "pro-male" label even though they know society discriminates against men and boys. They think they can secede and that if enough men do so society will collapse. This is often intermingled with right-wing beliefs about a 3rd world immigration invasion. All of it is nonsensical, the West won't collapse during your lifetime and certainly not because of immigration or because a few dozens of thousands of men are refusing to marry and chose to spend much of their time rambling about women in MGTOW spaces instead.

You can't secede from society, you can avoid marriage and that's all, you're still paying taxes to a gynocentric and gynocratic state that uses your money against you whether you want it or not. There is in America a $150,000 lifetime transfer from the average man to the average woman through taxes only. Secession isn't an option.

The moronic "strong male" posturing of the MGTOW who apparently think advocating for men is gay or something is the exact kind of behavior common in men that hinders the progress of male advocacy and that lets a feminist-driven society invent new ways of institutionally abusing men as time goes on.
