I have few Men in my life and even fewer mentors, but coming to this sub seeing 50+yr guys give advice to 14+yr dudes is really pretty awesome

Well, we men are programmed and hardwired to deal with our problems. Yet we are eager to help. But you need to ask for help because we're not running to your aid, like men do/ did for women.

Regard the society of women as a necessary unpleasantness of social life, and avoid it as much as possible....Leo Tolstoy

I’m 44. You are wise for recognizing this. I was in your shoes at your age. Except I thought I knew all the answers when I didn’t know shit.

As religion dies slowly we will have to find new avenues for community and part of community is people hanging out and talking to people older or much older than they are. The internet could be part of this

50+yr guys give advice to 14+yr dudes

This is the biggest threat to the feminine imperative, right here. It's why activist women demand to be included in anything men enjoy or subvert and dismantle institutions like Boy Scouts. It's why male spaces are frowned upon, but don't you dare take away women's safe spaces. It's why every male-friendly sub on this fucking site is quarantined or banned while the equivalent fuck-all-men subs are untouched.

If feminism was about tearing down walls, they'd be happily inviting men into their spaces but, as you can see how the TERFs are acting about tran-women in their bathrooms/sports, the facade is slipping.

about whatever in regards to women.

It's imo more about men, really, just told as if it's about ~~women~~ just females.

As an older guy (fewer years ahead of me than behind me), I wish I had known about the MGTOW philosophy when I was a teen.

Things were different back then. No internet. No email. There were libraries, of course. But it was unlikely they'd offer books on MGTOW. MGTOW was an alien concept in those days.

Can you imagine how difficult it was back then to stumble across this philosophy. Then, imagine trying to connect with others who subscribed to it. Doing so was virtually impossible.

I'm elated whenever I see younger guys taking the advice found in this sub. They can avoid making costly mistakes that might otherwise ruin them emotionally, financially, physically, and even spiritually.

ScaredIllustrator · 2019-10-17T12:20:02+00:00

loads of youtubers aswell bro like darius, sandman, etc are my top picks (Sandman old content specifically)

TheSolivigantSoul · 2019-10-17T15:33:47+00:00

16 years old here, almost 17. I came for the like minded people and stayed for the advice of the more experienced. Got sick of the indoctrination of those around me where I live. Glad I found this place.

You can thank the Internet.

Think about it lets go back to 1989 and a guy has gotten divorced from his cheating wife and literally gets taken to the cleaners financially. Who knows what he has gone through?

His family, close friends, the guys at work and maybe a few guys at the bar he hangs at? He's looking at maybe twenty five to thirty guys who'll find out what happens when your marriage ends in divorce.

Today that same guy could get on the Internet and within a week he's able to tell his story to 250K to 500K guys on various boards he hangs on.

When I was in my late thirties early forties I can't tell you how many guys told me there is no reason for a guy over forty to ever get married if you're not having kids.

ValhallaBoundBoy · 2019-10-17T15:59:11+00:00

The mentor relationship is one of the best there is. I encourage people of all ages to invest in finding someone who can help look out for them in that regard, and someone younger that they can help look out for.

SauceGodMike · 2019-10-17T16:26:00+00:00

ohh yeh for sure being 17 I am so glad I discovered MGTOW when I did I always hated obsticles (women being that major hurdle) I am stepping into life without that obsticle I kinda love the fact that I am now red-pilling my own father cause he is blue-pilled he has no idea what he got himself into I kinda feel bad he met my mother and I kinda just see him as stupid for going for this second chick and had a baby with her now she's leetching on our success like nothing she recently went back to her coutry in hopes to get away from my father he was so happy between those months then reality hit she has no job my dad funded her departure and return she used his daughter to come back into our space if he did not father her she would not be here and she knows that, my father is business orientated and so am I so at 17 I was able to start businesses since I am a software developer I make more money than she will ever in my sleep that says a lot of her character if not for MGTOW I bet my life I would end up with a post-wall leech like her

NoThirst · 2019-10-17T17:57:13+00:00

...for some of us...how we wished we had the knowledge of female nature in our 20's...so much wasted time and effort.

U-94 · 2019-10-17T12:48:49+00:00

But old men have been bitching to young men about their wives at jobs and bars since the beginning of time.

I doubt things will change.

Always try to learn from the mistakes of others. The real education you get here is imperative to your life and to your success.

usernameagain2 · 2019-10-17T21:14:44+00:00

A smart person can learn from the mistakes of others.

JohnPettimore · 2019-10-17T22:24:48+00:00

57 year-old guy here. When I look back on my life, if when I was fourteen, I had known what I know now, and had the brains to take it seriously, my life would have been completely different. I have learned an awful lot, much of it the (very) hard way. It only has meaning if I can pass it on. Superficially, you live in a different world today, but the exact same basic forces are at work now that ever were. I have actual physical scars from the process -- and I'll do my best to help, however I can.

menlandedonthemoon19 · 2019-10-18T01:17:16+00:00

I love encouraging younger Men (including my younger brothers) to get vasectomies, save their money, never work with women and keep everything in their own names.

Zilo88 · 2019-10-17T21:42:00+00:00

Many young men in their teens have a solely female influence. Of course they'll seek an older male to guide them. Boys need fathers to become men.

Helikzhan · 2019-10-18T11:21:53+00:00

All the propaganda in the world is to get men to fight each other. To get us to hate each other. And for what? So we can be preyed upon by women, aristocrats and dictators? Fuck it.
