Excuse the length. I like to write. There are parts where I pretended the audience was female.

MGTOW is an entirely rational and coherent response. As long as men have wide and prolonged experiences with the opposite sex (not incels, not MRAs, not even PUAs) and they are free to compare experiences then mgtow will continue to grow. It is a natural cause and effect born philosophy that is inevitable when you have the free exchange of ideas among lived individuals who have shared experiences. It just so happens that mgtow is the most logical consistent philosophy and most socially advantageous position to hold in the strange world that we call 2018.

MGTOW is not hate against women. This is a myth. Hate takes a lot of energy and is an unpleasant destination beyond a short visit. MGTOW is a "post female love and attention seeking" male philosophy. It necessarily alters the behavior of the man thereafter in the way and conditions he and only he sees as fit. MGTOW is not a political position, a racial identity position, or even an economic position. MGTOW has no leaders, no "heros" to dethrone, and no corporate offices to picket. A man who has gone "his own way" is free to pursue goals unto himself that only he deems worthy and worthwhile to pursue. These goals are not decided or influenced by women, society, or any institution or structure that depends on the constant stream of male sacrifice. In practical function mgtow operates only at the individual level. Like Stoicism, mgtow is just a philosophy. You will never see "mgtow" protests or marches for the same reason you will never see stoicism protests or marches. We are distributed nodes in a ghost army. Feed mgtow and it grows, don't feed it and it still grows. I imagine that to a many good number of women a unifying idea without a political advocacy group sponsored by corporate oligarchs might be a little hard to comprehend at this point. Let me explain further.

MGTOW is in-part the study of the male biological reproductive drive which behaviorally manifests itself in the exchange of male health, wealth, and labor in the hopes and continual pursuit of unconditional female love. Female love is a social promise to men that the so-called system sells to men. I really prefer to use the word indoctrinate but I digress. The promise is a carrot on a stick to get the man to behave in a fashion that creates conditions that are beneficial to creating offspring with a women. Civil society was largely a by-product of those collective efforts. Civil society was a strategic adaptation that was pursued because it better perpetuated the species. In reality this systemic promise is nothing but smoke and mirrors, magic trick, a veneer for what is really the chance at male sexual reproduction (the real real underlying drive). In an ideal and previously more rational world the culminating result of this prolonged song and dance between the sexes was reproduction, a stable family, a stable society and stable society. The familia gave both parties biological fulfillment and plenty of reasons to keep on keepin' on. The family had instinctual reasons to survive and to find common bonds to keep surviving. Those were acceptable conditions for much of history (partly because there was no other choice) but the game has now irreversibly changed.

MGTOW is a conscious ownership of that sexual drive and a control over how it manifests in 2018. It turns out you can mold that manifestation to your own advantage. Not only is it self ownership but it is the study of what else seeks to take advantage of that unexamined substructure of that drive (the female biological and sexual imperative). It is also the study of how to guard that drive against subversive forces which these days are mostly clever financial and political exploits of men. The result is we men are no longer unconscious slaves to forces that depend on our blind male sexual idiocy. It is true that nature doesn't necessarily have to make sense, it has just to work. Well things no longer really work, do they?

The new conditions between men and women make that biological pursuit no longer a worthwhile game except for the most blue-pilled and increasingly desperate men. These new sexual and relationship marketplace conditions came about because women changed the natural contract between men and women. It started in the 60's with the female sexual liberation movement. Women either naively or purposely expected their one-sided inputs to not have an equal and opposite reaction. When then pushed into unethical, predatory, and destructive extremes and they mistook a lack of of intelligent response as an indication to keep going. It's not that men were approving this so much as they themselves didn't understand what was actually happening and they themselves lashed out in equally idiotic ways. MGTOWs are waking up, studying what the fk actually happened, and realize that the deal was always raw, always one-directional, and is not worth playing as there are better games to play now.

MGTOW is an enlightened, and luckily for women, a benevolent and non-violent part of the blow-back from their overreach. MGTOW is only increasingly fueled by feminist women who boldly pursue ever more sociopathic ways to leverage male labor, investment, and sacrifice for their sole benefit. All this insanity while they all but abandoned their part of the natural contract. At no point in time did they ask men what we thought. It was just blind unquestioning loyalty to a half-baked ideology that started a race to the bottom between the sexes. These "fem bots" religiously uphold a political and corporate agenda that is using women quite masterfully to get globalist votes for elite causes and to drive down those pesky 1st world labor costs. Feminism is a big political bio-weapon that can be "altered" incredibly fast without any internal questioning and to support literally any anti-human social, political, or economic agenda. The corporations and controllers love, and I do mean really love feminism because it is insanely useful to them. Imagine having an unquestioning and global ideological party that will do your bidding in a manner you could never otherwise convince participants directly. Think I'm full of Hillary's hot sauce? Ask yourself why feminism has such a suicidal love affair with radical Islam and is so hell-bent on imported those who want nothing but sharia law. Is this really the kind of feminism the founders wanted? I was under the impression they revolted against that kind of oppression. There are many places you can look to see this ideological weapon in action. I can write several novels on this singular topic. In a nutshell: feminism is the single greatest gift women ever gave to the elite controllers. It is a literal suicide pact and most of it's believers have no idea what they signed up for. Maybe a future Shakespeare will write a comedy about it?

On the topic of nefarious pacts, the big birthing push for more women in STEM is just a cleverly veiled attempt to lower wages in the few jobs that still pay relatively well in the 1st world. For the moment these jobs are hard to outsource because supply cannot keep up with demand. You cannot with a straight face tell me that the so-called evil corporations are simultaneously oppressive institutions (and espouse the endless dogma that comes with this position) but also that these very same institutions happen to "conveniently" support women in STEM - out of the shear goodness of their hearts, I presume! Fortunately or unfortunately there are at least some of us with a brain which we on occasion like to turn dust off, turn on, and see if its still actually working. We use those brief moments of clarity to observe a so-called reality. Yep! It's still there. Oh god..

MGTOWs are not Incels. Incels are involuntarily sexless men in a psychological reinforcement loop that is constructed of a mixture of confusion, hate, and self-delusion. They cannot make sense of the reality before them. It figuratively and literally denies their efforts. Because they cannot make sense of their reality the worst of them will seek to destroy it or themselves. Before you wish you line up and shoot every single incel you should ask yourself what kind of reality you would have if no matter what you did you could not get laid and inherit the psychological, material, social, and self-esteem benefits thereof. This is not a defense of incels. Incels need mental help, not feminist literature, and certainly not feminist shaming. PUAs are low self-esteem sex addicts but they are also not mgtows. PUAs are self-conscious and have a developed an alternative identity in effort to create a real one. The mistook the previously sound advice of "fake it til you make it" to mean morphing yourself into a caricature that a low quality women could possibly sleep with. The goal is that they will not only get the sex they desire but in the process develop a greater sense of self. Most PUAs don't stay PUAs too long and reach a healthy homeostatis because PUA is unrewarding and comes at a high cost to oneself. MRAs are well-intentioned reformers but are ultimately naive and are delusional in their effectiveness. Their efforts are misplaced. They think they're up against a polite opponent that will play by their rules if asked nicely. They should just peacefully go their own way.

All of these men, fairly or unfairly, are untimely losers who are failing to cope with this new reality of the marketplace. I have hope that many of these walkers will eventually make peace with themselves but we mgtow are not really concerned for their well-being or their agenda's. I would argue that we do not view any of these people as particularly intelligent. Some of these men are misguided men who are really just enablers of the feminist toxicity that has created the world that now directly oppresses them. How ironic. Some of them even ally with feminists for their own selfish means because being an enabler is their actual sexual strategy. They have what we call "cucked" themselves into trying to rationalize their ailing position in the marketplace in which they are not even remotely competitive I am not sure if we should laugh or cry for them. It's not even so much that they find it a pleasurable position to hold they just rationalize to like it but it's quite degrading to acknowledges ones sexual limitations and it is a hit to the male ego and male self-esteem. They think that if they just say nothing to groups of women who secretly despise them then maybe then those same women will grow to love them, maybe even unconditionally! It's a stupid mind trick and it's not going to work. If you understand sexual psychology you will understand why it won't work. In the mind of a cuck they just have to hold out and prove their ideological loyalty, say the right utterances, and the women will love them. If there are infinite parallel universes surely a universe where this strategy actually works cannot possibly exist.

Not all men are capable of being free men. Not all women are unthinking slaves to their base most sexual nature that in this present day is being weaponized against them. Like everything it is a balance but mgtow is a growing reaction to a growing relationship imbalance between the sexes that history will prove was not sustainable. Like most mgtow men, we are an end unto ourselves and the things "we" choose become the things we pursue. The female is not hated, she has just been reduced from the equation. There is no hate in something you do not wish to manipulate, alter, or co-opt. MGTOW is calmness, peace, and hope for the unknown and surely interesting future. MGTOW is for free men.

If I could I would tell the collective female mind that you simply cannot expect men to not deviate from their traditional roles i.e. to be good little worker bees and sacrificial lambs for the sake of civil society (we weren't just husbands, ya know?) while simultaneously promoting toxic feminism, female degeneracy and unchecked sociopathy. Of course these changes negatively affect males and society at large. You would have to be an unthinking dolt at this point to not see the connection. While at this junction, how ironic is it that the traditional world that traditional male built with the help of traditional women was also the world that gave women untold amounts of protection, privilege, and prestige... only for those same women to turn around and scoff at those privileges, insult men, and collectively march in the opposite direction? I hear echos of "where have all the good men gone?" The more "progress" they make the unhappier they become. We truly do act first and then rationalize after. Who said the world that's coming is supposed to make any sense?

One more quick jab at feminism. Feminism will fail. It will fail not because of male violence but because of male indifference. You need all the "allies" you can get because feminism is a unproductive ideology that needs to ingest male workers units to even remotely stand one of it's four legs. Feminism produces nothing of value and cannot sustain itself at its present operating costs. I know, I know, I understand the need.. you wanted to believe the lies about different realities on earth. Those lies were so comforting when the controllers told you just so. When they alleviated you of all responsibility and put all the world's ills on the opposite sex. Let me assault you with one saliant fact:

There has never been a single idea that has ever took hold of humanity that needed as so much global, political, and corporate sponsorship but STILL failed to produce anything of value as feminism.

The above is why feminism will fail. Even communists produced something. I suggest that feminists study how ideas spread. Unlike Hillary's 2016 record spending campaign good ideas take hold and spread only one way: organically and one human node at a time. They do not need slick ideological packaging and billions of dollars is burned money to promote them. Feudalism failed, monarchy failed, slavery failed, indentured servitude failed, communism failed, socialism failed, feminism will thus also fail. As sure as sure of that fact as I am that the sky is blue.

Back to my earlier points about the relationship contract which has been radically altered seemingly without thought by the people who started this mass unthinking process. The tensions between the sexes are a symptom that these are two states of nature that cannot rationally coexist. The framework in which they do exist is actually quite fixed. Men and women are in a symbiotic relationship the relationship only works within certain measurable tolerances. Now that the framework has been skewed sufficiently there is no way to put humpty-dumpty back together again. The underlying mechanisms that drove this unconscious process are laid bare to be analyzed, criticized, and pondered if they are worth the work. Insert MGTOW.

When you indoctrinate women to act as men you get a dysfunctional caricature that is neither a functional man nor a functional women. Mgtow is in-part the counter revolution to radical feminism. It has real organic meaning that does not require corporate sponsorship, politicians, or media. The message is all there is to mgtow. There will be no counter-revolution to mgtow because where radical feminism was a first move (a globally suicidal move might I add), mgtow is a final and finishing move. MGTOW is not responsible for what happens at the societal level from the loss of competent male investment in civil society, a society that was really built to protect women from the realities of male survival. Women are now free to do whatever they so wish to do with their minds, bodies, and what remains of the money they still own. MGTOW wants no part of it or the consequences thereof. How ironic is that feminists will read that last point as oppressive? We ask women of nothing and consequently no longer owe them anything. MGTOW is the study of "what happened actually" and a practical reversal from that hellhole. If there is anyone rational left to observe the future then history will show which ideas proved right.

Contrary to radical feminist apologia, mgtow are not bitter losers. Going "your own way" requires experience with women and an honest in-depth study of both female and male reproductive strategies as mentioned earlier. What follows is an acknowledging of the male's disadvantaged role in that song and dance routine. The decision to GYOW is a rejection of that role. In the present day, you cannot be a mgtow if you do not have sufficient experience with the opposite sex. You may find exceptions but don't worry those individuals will be a good boyfriend at the first female who gives him his first bj. The biological programming is simply that strong.

The reason some mgtows appear angry (and there are plenty of those among us) is because the process of becoming a mgtow often comes at the price of one's own dignity, freedom, and a destruction of comforting myths. It is not unlike leaving a religion.

The process to becoming a mgtow is roughly like this:

Indoctrinated sense of blue-pill love sponsored by Disney, females and gyno-centric institutions -> sudden and prolonged real world experience of heartbreak and that unconditional love does not exist for men while simultaneously IS expected from men -> asking "why" enough times fueled by an increasing cognitive dissonance buildup -> seeking to resolve the dissonance and getting red-pilled on reproductive strategies which explain everything, quite literally to a "T" -> henceforth becoming temporarily bitter for being lied to, mislead, and for letting oneself become a victim -> finally peace that comes with understand and peacefully going your own way. The last part is what MGTOW is all about. What lies beyond that is for each man to decide for himself.

I'm young, have a fantastic career, no debts and have dated beautiful local and foreign women. I love this new unbounded life full of pleasure, potential, mastery, and self-study. Living with the knowledge that I no longer have to marry a women to reach a completed sense of self worth, that they are no longer mysterious creatures to be protected and loved, is a peace of mind and freedom that is difficult to articulate in mere words. Art would be a better medium. It is art because there was never a missing puzzle piece.. the puzzle piece was in front of me the whole time. It was me.

MGTOW do not hate women, we just understand them. We understand them and ourselves well enough to exit gracefully. God how I missed myself.

Formally, yours truly.
