I was an unofficial MGTOW for a long time. I had figured out that marriage was a scam, and I saw women's unfair advantage in dating. I just didn't have a name for it. When I had a girlfriend who was demanding marriage and pressuring me into it, some instincts kicked in that said, "no!". Thankfully, I avoided that shit. I had no idea there was a philosophy/lifestyle named MGTOW that embodied specifically what my instincts were telling me.

So without every dude officially joining, it's still going to keep getting harder and harder for women to find husbands to exploit. Feminists will blame it all on men, of course, but they always do that anyway. If we were all rushing to get married in sucky marriages, they would blame that on us too.
