Guilds/frats/clans among men should be popular

There used to be many of them.

Because women invariably criticize, protest, sue, and push their way into these organizations, then demand that the clubs change to suit women, making them unappealing for men. This has been going on since the 1960s.

Don't get me wrong: I'd support such guilds, if they're willing to ride out that storm and battle through to victory, if only to say a big "fuck you" to feminist douchebags who will try to destroy them.

The lack of popular male groups is not due to red tape or legislation, but more of a reflection of the current male values system.

Nearly every average man is utterly plugged into the matrix. He sees no reason to go hang with other men, because on one hand, he's intimidated by other men and on the other hand, those who he surrounds himself with would convince him it is silly.

Start a guild at your job or something if u want. They have to be lvl 100 to join though, no noobs allowed.

Biker gangs?

What is the common interest that will bond all these brofessionals together?

Freemasons? They have women’s divisions I think but mostly are men.

My dad and brother are members of an elks lodge. That's pretty much a frat for older guys. They drink, have BBQ's and do charity stuff. Also, women aren't allowed to be members.

You mean like fraternal orders?

There's a male exclusive charity club sort of thing in my city. Seems like a great networking opportunity.

What do you think Freemasons are?

Fight Club Style

Guild has to be one of the cringiest words out there

Groups like these have lost a lot of popularity over the years; due to a multitude of reasons.

It’s in our best interest to try and bring them back.

They are rare those days but they are out there.

Just start with a sport that is naturally uninteresting to women or just way to hard for most of them to handle like most martial arts.

I train boxing five times a week and the philosophy there is very similar to what you’re describing. Im only 21 but there are loads of adult men who come everyday to train, workout and hang with the boys and they’re all very friendly. It’s a sort of a family mentality there and a sense of comradeship when you train and suffer together.

We train together, go to the gym together, run together and have a good time. There are also some women but there aren’t many of them since most of them find the sport to be way to hard for them.

A few ladies that remain are in my case very red pilled younger girls who don’t like hanging out with women and their bullshit and would rather spend their afternoons hanging with the guys.

I was in Poland in December for an ice man training by Wim Hof. It was all about dealing with the cold. Meditating in ice water, climbing Polands highest mountain wearing only shorts, no shirt, with a temperature of -9 (due to the wind the feeling temperature was -34).

The group of guys we did this with grew really close in a few days. Hardship is the basis of good friendship. I was yearning for an experience like this and thought the military was the only way, so I was very very happy to come across this.

A video game guild will never have the same strength, because no actual hardship is involved.

We need to go back to manlike activities, such as dealing with nature.

Like boy scouts.

My 50cents... A lot of "groups" have moved to online and therefore the need to meet in person as a group as disappeared. And factor in that any Joe blow and plane Jane can become anyone online...

This in turn has dissolved groups in general and therefore the value of them.

The focus has become more information...

Trying to start a whiskey tasting in my living room for men only. Irish whiskey themed soon! We usually talk about manly shit and politics and philosophy.

Hopefully it can be done in one's living room.

I've been in some men's groups through my church. One of them has a quasi-RP flavor - they don't advocate spinning plates obviously, but they do advocate working on yourself, raising your value, not pedestalizing women, etc. It's actually a great group of guys.

The old school men's refuges are all going away for the most part because they've been trivialized and made "uncool" and the guys that rose to leaderships roles in the last 20 years weren't up to the challenge of maintaining the dignity of their organizations. It's actually very sad.

Cigar bars seem to fulfill this need.

The bar down the street from my place is always full of guys.

Jsieijejeieokkd · 2018-06-02T23:57:53+00:00

I don’t really know just go see them. I’ve known a couple, pretty good dudes.

AmazonExplorer · 2018-05-30T01:53:49+00:00

I think in an ever more globalized, atomized, male-hostile world this can only make sense. But it's probably best that it's centered around some common goal or hobby.
