Hi guys, young MGTOW here (23M). I have a question regarding the MGTOW concept. Some post says that it is better to be MGTOW in this generation or it is better to be MGTOW in West compared to East and etc. From what I think isn't it always there? Based on movies and philosophy, men always liked being alone and being free right? I just assume it is our default state. Deep down well at least for me, I always felt happy doing something then being with people or in love. That peace and happiness feeling when doing or pursuing something is way better than anything else I felt. I just felt marriage, society and religion alike are very controlling and removes the freedom that comes with being a man. It clouds our judgement saying that was our only path in life. Female nature have always been there and always will.

So the problem we are now facing now, is just the lie feminist or the last 100 years of civilization have said to us right? Having a family is great and having kids and playing with them must be a different kinda joy. True love also is just proper give and take between committed couples (at least for me). But every man have his own choice right? Well you can't have it all, having a family and kids comes with it's own sacrifice and last time it was much easier to manage with better society, even gender power and roles and also the financial situation overall. Being alone also if it was last few generation much harder due to it being harder to survive and having less stuff to do. Fast forward to the present, both cases have been switched. It is much easy being single then being married. Women have been and always will love unconditionally. It is just how it is right. Men love women, women love children and children love dogs. It is how nature works. Deep down even I can know that no matter how much I try, I can't love my parents as much as how they love me.

So my doubt is not that MGTOW is have always been there right. And it is not like women can love a men as a men love a women. Both love have been different and always been different. ( Rational male explains this perfectly ). It is just easier to become and maintain MGTOW now due to the access of knowledge and the action of the female race itself right? It is just the scales are balancing the other way around compared to the past. It is just how nature works due to the rise in population I guess.

Basically it is not that MGTOW suddenly existed or came to be but it was always there and it wasn't because of female nature or how women are acting now. I think men are having a hard time with the pain because we have been oversold with the concept of love and the idea of being in love due to how life have been influence by feminist. The amount of love songs, love movies, relationship stuff and stuff to please the other gender is just exaggerating. We were basically sold a lie.

So I am just curious whether my opinion here is true. Please correct me if I'm wrong or maybe there is no correct concept in being a man. I'm just trying to find my own definition of being a good man, having good values and living a peacefully life.
