The Manipulated Man. Only book you need

I would choose a more classic/ancient approach - for example, Seneca has wrote some thoughts on many ideas and I think you can find them easily on the internet for free and they are easy to read: On death, On friendship, On the shortness of life etc

Another one worth exploring is Marcus Aurelius and his book called Meditations or Thoughts to myself. Bear in mind that he was a Roman emperor, so the struggle to either be a despotic ruler or a peaceful one was strong in him.

I also like books connected or directly on Buddhism as it main percepts is living a quiet, simple life. He who wishes and yearns for something he cannot possess, he suffers most. The mind is everything - what you think, you become. As a side note, you can always try some Herman Hesse as he was strongly influenced by oriental philosophy. Not to miss are his books Steppenwolf and Siddhartha.

Spinoza is hard to digest, but worth looking into. This guy was a Portuguese jew in the Netherlands in the 17th century. Stranger in a strange land. Imagine that for his views on God and on society, he was cast away from the community, his family was forbidden to talk to him and even the other jews were looking in another direction when they saw him. 'The netherlanders' weren't too fond of jews either, so he is the very definition of going your own way (solo mode).

As for myself, I am more inclined towards existentialism and here you have plenty to pick from. My favourite is Albert Camus. His view on life is also my view. You cannot change the absurdity of it. Everything is ruled by chaos.

So many, The Rational Male is the guide to women but I recommend Atomic Habits, Confessions of a CPA, and 7 Habits of highly successful people

Essentialism: The Disciplined Pursuit of Less, Greg McKeown

Someone else beat me to it: The Manipulated Man - written by Esther Villar I couldn't sleep for 2 nights straight thinking about what was said in this book. This book is PURE TRUTH !! If this book doesn't keep you on the MGTOW path, NOTHING WILL. This book will melt and BURN away every trace of blue pill in you. It did for me !

A second contender would be The Rational Male - written by Rollo Tomassi but I can't stress this enough. Read The Manipulated Man first and foremost.

And as a bonus (not MGTOW or Red Pill related) try out The Complete Fiction of H.P. Lovecraft !! This is not a MGTOW book, it's just the best horror sci-fi literature I have ever read.

Books on stoicism and the ethics of Chanakya (Chanakya Niti/ Neeti). The former teaches you about how to avoid attachment and the latter contains some red pills on female nature, like the manipulated man.

Here's some quotes on women from the legendary Indian philosopher, Chanakya himself:
