i am a room dweller, i go to work, i come home and browse reddit for the rest of the day, that's it. the least contact i have of anyone, especially women, the better things are for me. anyway, thats it. let me know whats up.

That's really not MGTOW, it's the life of a hermit or monk... or a turtle.

Nothing wrong with that (seriously... if you want to live a hermit or monk-like existence*, or even become a monk... hey you're not harming anyone, so go for it) -- but MGTOW doesn't mean you have to lock yourself up in a room and avoid all RL contact with others; rather it's about rationally fulfilling your own needs and avoiding becoming the manipulated victim of others.

EDIT: as I noted in a couple of comments in that linked thread -- and as this report on VAWA's effects on the African-American community attests & documents -- your "fear" is not without a basis in reality.

IOW, you're probably not paranoid or (as someone else asserted below) "suffering from a mental disorder" -- you may just be in a community that has seen the extreme end of the spectrum (despite the delusion that the US has a "monoculture" -- and the pervasive media that makes it seem that way {and drives it toward that} -- there are in fact HUGELY dramatic differences from one location, one group of people, and other locations/groups of people -- sometimes with as little as a few miles or even blocks in terms of distance).

In which case the answer is clear -- get the heck out of Dodge ASAP!

While your "turtle" response is probably rational so long as you remain in your current situation/environment... what you REALLY need to do is to move to a (substantially) different community (different city, probably different state, maybe even different country), one where the risks for someone such as yourself are significantly LOWER than they are in your current location.

Doing that carries some risk, and obviously takes guts... but the opposite -- falling into the victim-like mentality of thinking that you have no way out, or no other options -- is almost certainly a trap.

And that's not me saying that by moving you should or will be able to become "care-free" in your interactions with women -- but at least you should be able to reach a place where your fear of interacting with them is reduced to a manageable level (one that is rational/logical and based on positive choices regarding what YOU want in life: i.e. MGTOW or other -- rather than one that is a paranoia-like fear of avoiding random hugely negative outcomes that you are currently living in).

* Note: As an long-standing MGTOW, for years now I've been accused (among other insinuations**) of "living like a hermit" -- and while I definitely have (by conscious & conscientious choice) reduced my traveling and daily interactions with others (to an extent that most "rat-race" contestants cannot fathom) -- I didn't do so out of "fear".... And especially NOT out of fear of women, LOL; I interact with women (and a significant a number of others, men, kids, etc) and NONE of them have the ability or capacity to "scare" me (in any way, shape or form -- not any more than children or other types of "pets" do) -- if anything, being essentially immune/insulated from their ability to impact me negatively, I simply find them all (women, children, pets, etc) to be a source of occasional AMUSEMENT with their (generally) irrational and (IMO typically) childish actions and attempts to manipulate & control things via emotions, etc.

**Any/all of such insinuations reveal much more about the person making the insinuation (and their personal foibles, obsessions, & fears and/or their attempts to manipulate & control others via imputed guilt/shame) than they have anything at all to do with me.

What do you want?

Some people are able to recognize the patterns that are dangerous to their livelihood and avoid them rationally. That is MGTOW, and you're welcome to do whatever you want, as you are a free man truly here. People will use shaming language out there, because they are unable to see the danger and have no problem jumping to their deaths, but here you are accepted.
