Another Troll.

Pepe and kek has no direct relation to mgtow philosophy. The bar to being a man going his own way is low. As long as you don't believe in the institution of marriage, you don't cohabitate with a woman and you don't have kids, you are a mghow. Everything else is up to your discretion, which is why it is wrong to think mgtow as a movement or community; it is not. We are individuals who agree in a set of life rules that we know are concrete. We do disagree on many thongs bit not the core things.
Equality? Sigh. This will sound misogynistic to newcomers but MGTOW do not believe that the sexes are equal in any way, shape or form. Men and women are fundamentally different, which is due to our sexual dimorphic nature. Please research this in depth as it will take too long for me to explain.
Short answer is "yes, but why would you?" Once you realise the risk of being in a term relationship with a woman, with how the laws are irrefutably against men in all aspects of relationship dynamics, a simple cost benefit analysis will reveal how foolish it is to attempt such a thing. But there are mgtows who do it and we do not judge your decision to do so, we simply advise you to be careful.

Some Words: The mgtow lifestyle isn't for everyone. Stardusk (aka Thinking Ape) have made a good video regarding the trade off of being a mghow. We don't expect every man to be Red Pilled, we don't expect every Red Pilled man to be mgtow. But mgtows know - with great certainty - that we are correct and our ideas including repealing women's suffrage, has been accepted throughout the manosphere and even in traditionalist circles. The MRA and even PUA communities have begun embracing mgtow ideas and are becoming mgtow lite.

Whether you do become mgtow or not is irrelevant; we only wish your life to be well.

Basically it's just opening your eyes to all the bullshit that we as men are subjected to by the feminist culture. Nobody is really on our side both socially and legally so we just say fuck it and go our own way. Better to be alone then be a sucker that has no control over your own life or future. Why play a game that you have no chance of winning?

Only speaking for myself:

Pepe has barely any relationship to MGTOW. I've seen some posts and videos with his image too, but it doesn't bother me because I think it's funny. My limited understanding is that he represents trolling, often from a right wing, sometimes nationalist point of view. If I don't share the political beliefs of a MGTOW video or post, I usually just go elsewhere so I don't ruin the vibe for the participants. MGTOW is politically as broad as the views of the male population as a whole.
I'm guessing removing woman's suffrage is a rare MGTOW view, but I've seen it expressed. I think women should have the right to vote. I definitely reserve the right to cut toxic people out of my life, even if they're family. I haven't needed to go this far; I get on well with my family and they respect me.
Starting a relationship as a MGTOW would remove the value for me, but I think some MGTOW do it if they feel like they're respected. It's easier to imagine a guy already in a relationship (particularly marriage) who adopts MGTOW outlook but decides to stay in the relationship.

Overall, one of the reasons I like MGTOW is I don't have to fight for anything. I'm not signing up for a cause, and I don't have to change anyone's mind. I get to just enjoy the freedom of life, doing whatever I feel like.
