Of course. This thinking is rooted in wisdom passed down by great men for thousands of years, bolstered recently by science.

Sometimes called ‘confirmed Bachelor‘ The NYT ran a headshrink piece on it almost 30 years ago

https://mobile.nytimes.com/1991/08/28/news/confirmed-bachelorhood-it-may-be-a-state-of-mind.html

“Many never-married men are deeply satisfied with their lives as they practice these defenses, Dr. Waehler said.”

Very little is known about never-married men and women, said Dr. Timothy Brubaker, editor of Family Relations journal and director of the Family and Child Study Center at Miami University in Oxford, Ohio. It is important to study them because their perspectives on life are different from people who get married, divorced or widowed, he said, "but we really don't know how different."

So no it's not new. It's just men rediscovering themselves.

SOVEREIGNTY

Is a better word, if you need to label the idea.

Just look into the history of Buddhism.

MGTOW is not a new label. The very term MGTOW was discussed ages ago. I made a post months ago about the history of MGTOW where great historical men discussed it with the very same acronym.

It’s been around for ages and has nothing to do with bachelor life. A bachelor typically dates but does not commit. The idea behind MGTOW is not to involve himself in any way where women are given preferential treatment. This makes it next to impossible to even date them.

Mgtow is not even about being a bachelor. Thats just optional, its so that men can actually enjoy life without their world revolving around women. Once female nature is explained to someone, they never look at women the same because the examples are out there. Married men are miserable, but lie to themselves that they are happy. GYOW fellas
