The rite of passage into manhood isn't measured by how much pussy we get, or how much money or material gain we have.

It's not automatically handed to us after we reach a certain age.

It's nourished by embracing hardship; learning how to lose and let go; excepting the truth, especially when we don't like it; not twisting the truth, just because the truth makes us uncomfortable.

It's cultivated through pain and suffering. By being beat into a state of indifference, regardless of who or what does the beating.

It's nourished by facing death.

We begin to arrive at manhood when our direction in life moves beyond satisfying childish desires, having "toys", and excessive pleasure in material possessions.

This is probably the biggest barrier for men, before seeing the absurdity of our material based society. The final gateway to into spirituality, where ethereal body of our manhood is found.

The princess dreams of women become just that. We begin to see the faults and folly of our own mothers. We realize that they aren't even capable of looking out for our best interest. Never have been. Never will.

No woman on earth can turn a boy into a man. Only men can. This is one unspoken—possibly subconscious—reason most of us congregate here.

Because behind it all, the greatest threat to this gynocetric society isn't mgtow or sysbm, it's men becoming men.

This is why they don't want us to have male spaces; why they hate and are terrified of the manosphere.

Men are supposed to be feared! It's one of the blessings of our superior position.

They wanted to keep us in a teenager state of mind, asking the girl to the prom for the rest of our lives. Kneeling to them as if they have something that is greater that what we have.

This is finally over.

Through cuts, scars and bruising. Through pain, grief and suffering. Men, seek manhood. In the face of ostrcism, persecution, and even death, seek manhood.

Edit: I made it sound like mothers are never capable of looking out for us. They are when we are young. They just completely incapable of guiding us towards manhood.
