I actually agree with you, but any society/group needs people who excel to give guidance. If you unsubscribe, you are just walking away and allowing the issue to perpetuate. Now, you have every right to leave, but understand that it takes people who have learned to grow to help other people move past their bitterness.

I agree, and sometimes I see that leaking through in this subforum (although admitedly I’m new here). It just seems like theres an identity struggle between MGTOW, RP and Incels, so much so that every thread seems to have a combination of the 3. More activity from someone like OP who has found a good balance would be great in terms of communal contributions.

I often comment on how my life has changed for the better since divorce..a drama-free home, lots of money, no debt..the list is long. Life is good!

We come here for the cure, and not to be a better patient.

So then why don't you start threads on the things you want to talk about? Why are you waiting for other people to do the hard work for you? This is about improving yourself, therefore you have to do the work to improve yourself.
All you're doing with this post is showing that you're relying on everyone else to do things for you, that you're so worried about what other people think of you based on who you associate with that you're retreating so that people don't call you a crying loser too.
To be clear, I don't have a problem with you leaving, if that's what you think you should do, go for it. It's up to you.
I just find it funny that people feel the need to take little pot shots at everyone else to make themselves feel like a big man. "You're all losers, I'm not."

However I think if we want to introduce a change we have to let everyone know why we should do it. The people who agree with that 'why' will join the change more readily.
Be an example of that then rather than someone who wants to enforce a certain way of thinking. The only thing you're doing with your current tactic is dividing people into camps. Those who agree with you and those who don't.
Now that I've posted this, I'm pretty sure my next post will have a much higher impact because people who agree with me will be on the lookout for my next move. This is a much better idea than screaming something in a sea of random crowd without having anyone to know why you're screaming.
Only, it's not like screaming in a crowd because words don't simply disappear when other words are spoken by someone else in another thread.
To illustrate my point, watch this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CHp639vhUJg
Part of what makes a text based forum so good is that you can still sift through the content that you don't want to find the content you do want. I do this all the time here, I go through the posts that aren't relevant to me and I find the ones that are relevant to me. It's not very difficult or time consuming to do either once you become skilled at doing it.
I honestly don't want to leave. That's why I posted this. Do you think I would be worried with what others have to say when I am speaking my mind out in this post? Think again.
So don't leave. Instead, be an example to yourself, not others, as to what kind of person YOU want to be. Post the discussions that you want to have, focus on the things that make you a better person. If others join in, then that's nice, but ultimately, even if you get 0 interaction with other people. You have to ask yourself one question. Did posting that thread in of itself help you?
Of course I don't feel like a big man. I haven't revealed my identity so what credit am I receiving for the real me? None. This was just my feedback because I care about this place and its future.
That was more of an observation I have with people posting the same kind of thread you did at other times in the past. Ultimately, there's no point in trying to get others dance to your tune. Hell, you can totally ignore everything that I've had to say up till this point.
But what I am trying to get you to realise here is that it's silly to put down the people here, people who are going through their own journeys and have to deal with shit themselves on their own terms.
The thing is, no one is going to find the answers for you and along the way and you're not necessarily going to be the one to give them the answers that will help them along their path either.
As good intentioned as you think you are, ultimately, every man here is going their own way and how they go is their business because it ultimately affects them the most.
Damn, I'm starting to ramble again.
Short version: You do what you need to do to help you, but it's pointless to try to get others to do the things that specifically helps you. What helps you may not be helpful for others, they have to find, on their own, what helps them finally and truly go their own way.

You want us to talk about what we do after we realize the reality? Okay. After realizing I'm a second class citizen in society who is also expected to maintain the society that benefits from my slavelabor and ultimately, my death, I proceeded to stop giving a fuck. I stopped caring about money, stopped worrying about the corporate ladder, stopped pretending a career was something I was excited about doing for 50+ years until I am left a shell of a human being, stopped being interested in furthering my education, stopped caring about human interaction, dropped pretty much all of my acquaintances because I was no longer satisfied by superficial relationships, dropped contact with my family because I'm no longer ashamed of hating them, and stopped wanting any kids because I no longer want to subject any more innocent lives to the torture that is existence on Earth. I pretty much stay home as much as possible, exercise, surf the net, play videogames, youtube, do different things I'm interested in such as art, DIY, writing, and whatever else strikes my fancy on any given day, and I've written up a budget of how much money I require on a yearly basis so that I can generate enough income to use up before I die without having to waste any of it on taxes while being able to work as little as possible.
Anything else you would like to know? There's not much else I'm interested in once I realized I'd be happier dead than alive.

It's time that we start talking about reaping MGTOW benefits. Otherwise people like me who actually ascend past the angry phase will keep leaving this sub because of the negativity and aparent uselessness.
Of course, past enlightenment one has to leave. Or you could stay and help the newbies. I've been here for two years and I do see the same set of memes and info bits being repeated again and again, yet upvoted to the top.
Because it fits the new set of men coming in- the anger phase, then the acceptance and the final indifference- just like your current state of mind.
Have a blast.
[–][deleted] 4 points5 points6 points 8 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
The reason there is so much "negativity" is because right now there's a huge surge of men waking up to the gynocentric and misandrist reality we live in, due to the #MeToo movement, social media and other factors.
The first stage men typically go through is the red pill rage. This stage is often characterized by anger and depression. But once more brothers make it past this stage, and begin healing and improving, then we will see a surge of success stories down the line.
So be patient and if you really want to help brothers out, then post your own positive messages on the sub. Make your own contributions, and don't expect other people to do it for you. There's no reason to abandon this subreddit.
[–]79johnsmith4 points5 points6 points 8 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
Some also come here to take their regular dose of redpill. I find this place is a good reminder to ward off complacency and to balance out the gynocentric propaganda that saturates everyday life.
[–]EssexMartyr2 points3 points4 points 8 years ago (3 children) | Copy Link
You already know what to do after you realize... U do loads of shit like u just did. Negative posts are there to keep u reminded of what females are like. Eventually u will come across one who u like the smell of and u will be hooked. Just don't do it. Keep reading the negative to remind you of the positive.
[–][deleted] 0 points1 point2 points 8 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
Good luck either way on what you do bro

Women being shitty is fundamental to MGTOW. Everything else is irrelevant.
[–]stringedbeams2 points3 points4 points 8 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
Here's why I'm unsubscribing. Most of the posts here talk about why women suck. Thats essential to being MGTOW. But over the months there's been a steep drop in positive constructive posts about what to do after you realise the reality of women.
these positive constructive posts are needed, either with a flair for it here or a separate sub on improving things. there is /r/becomeaman for instance, maybe could create "super MGTOW life improvement" or something like that
the "negative" posts are cathartic for me to see other people experience same problems and I can relate a lot of times
[–]gifm4ster1 point2 points3 points 8 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
First I would like to congratulate you for waking up. Not everyone has the ability to do that. Denial is the first step everyone will resort to and our hormones are really, really compelling. They’re really good at getting good people into trouble, I’ll give them that.
But of course not saying our hormones are useless. I love the benefits that come with that, like being stronger and getting a better body, etc. etc.
Now, I fully support your decision. Please go ahead! Unsubscribe. Live your life the way YOU want it. Don’t want anymore negativity? Don’t worry. You can have that. You keep the lessons that MGTOW offer and you’re set for the rest of your life.
I agree with you that pretty much this sub does what you say it does... but to me that’s the point. Sort of. This subreddit will continue to do what it does... waking more men up and it’ll continue to be what it is. Now, I know there are problematic people in this sub and I do wish there would be more philosophical posts than just anti feminism posts, memes and what have you. But it is what it is. This sub reminds me that I’m not alone. The things that I’ve been thinking, there are people out there that share the same opinion, and that’s cool. I don’t visit this sub very often though, just come back from time to time.
Unsub Brother and enjoy your life. I wish you nothing but the absolute best in your endeavours. May you find peace and joy in your life. In fact, no. I know you will.
Oh and have a jolly Christmas. In like 2 days from now. (Its 23rd Dec where I’m from writing this post)
[–]genesic1231 point2 points3 points 8 years ago (3 children) | Copy Link
You aren't a mgtow to "win".We are however,stopping men from losing to "women".We are here to educate as many men as possible on female nature as it is.We are literally the only teachers on planet earth who will do it now.Most people don't really know about mgtow.It may seem like whining,but no one else is going to do it.
The anti feminists and MRA are just a fake bandwagon.They don't really mean what they say.None of them will say what is needed either.
I'd say Mgtow is a school, not a hospital.
[–][deleted] 1 point2 points3 points 8 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
r/mgtow is akin to the ER in a hospital.
ER is a gateway to the rest of the hospital where longterm healing happens.
Top voted content here will always focus on the same basic ideas because it's a priority for the patients and saves lives.
There are plenty of improvement/success focused posts, they just don't get upvoted... I made a lengthy improvement post here just the other day that died on the vine actually.
To be expected...
It's like a doctor in the ER treating athlete's foot for a patient with severed legs.
That said... be the change you desire brother.
Merry X-mas to you and yours btw.
[–]genesic1230 points1 point2 points 8 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
They may be repeated, but the reality is that not enough people know about mgtow memes.If they did though,things would not have gotten so bad for men.
I actually look forward to the time when we are irrelevant or just considered "back in my day" speech by most people,cause it would mean that we would have done our part.
[–]jaie6661 point2 points3 points 8 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
Good luck and goodbye
Literally the post after this is called "how do I stop comparing myself" - you're exaggerating. There are posts of every kind here.
I gotcha. I want to talk about cook stuff also, like my unlimited free time and my toys and cash but there are places like that else where. And I tried to make threads like this but mgtow is not about talking about what happens after you accept the terms and conditions it's about "accepting" them right now by learning about the nature of things.
Mgtow is a gateway to men's health and development. I post in videos games forum if I have a video game question, gun forums for gun questions, financial forums for money questions and so on. Mgtow topics are about what people write about here.
I'm super stoked you've accepted it. :)
[–]scaur1 point2 points3 points 8 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
next level of mgtow is to leave this place =D
[–]cashmoney_x1 point2 points3 points 8 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
Just do it you fucking drama queen.
[–]jamesbwbevis1 point2 points3 points 8 years ago (4 children) | Copy Link
You're supposed to go your own way.
Whatever that means is up to you nigga
[–]boringcarpets0 points1 point2 points 8 years ago (3 children) | Copy Link
Not really tho, this is why we always get so-called married MGTOW and MGTOW chasing relationships
[–]jamesbwbevis-1 points0 points1 point 8 years ago (2 children) | Copy Link
Mgtow can choose to get married or have relationships if they want. Although they really wouldn't be mgtow in my eyes at that point.
Just go your own fucking way. If your way means still dating women, do that then
[–]boringcarpets0 points1 point2 points 8 years ago (1 child) | Copy Link
No that's just dumb, you can't just change what the philosophy means just by looking at the term at face value. Sorry, but you're wrong, going your own way does not mean all ways are valid and therefore every man is going his own way - that would be like believing feminism is about equality. No you're not MGTOW if you marry or chase LTR
[–]jamesbwbevis0 points1 point2 points 8 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
That's why I said "they really wouldn't be mgtow in my eyes".
But other than that , anything counts
[–]BreathGenie1 point2 points3 points 8 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
So you’re saying you want us to stop criticizing women so much? Did your girlfriend ask you to say that?
[–]El_Magikarp1 point2 points3 points 8 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
Then start by yourself idiot. It’s easy to notice the flaws in something but if you cry for a change then start posting quality content.
[–]wawakaka0 points1 point2 points 8 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
This sub is a great red pill
[–]Poofysmoof0 points1 point2 points 8 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
You bring up some very valid points, but why start with saying your unsubscribing? I’ve seen some post about this, we just need more positive posters. I see the highlights as too what frustrates men about women, it can be overwhelming.
I agree with you, you are absolutely right. What helps the journey? Where do you go to find the solace that this path needs so you can start your healing? If your a man that doesn’t need healing but are in search of direction, where do you go?
I have conversations daily about these subjects. Too get to this point I’ve read many books, listened to hours and hours of audio books, YouTube videos.
I’ve been lucky, I have 3 full fledged Mgtow men who are high value men as examples. They could offer a good life to any women they chose but choose not too. I see the life they live and it’s a good life, one reason I’m able to see into their worlds because I myself am working toward being very high value. With that mindset you attract like minded individuals.
Basically less pity party, more party. Here’s the areas you need to build up. They are simple concepts but a long process to fully develop. Strong body, strong mind, strong soul. Good luck
I also don't get this idea that mgtow is a hospital. No it isn't.
Mgtow is for men who have already decided to go their own way. They are already healed.
Mgtow is just a club for guys that have made this decision.
[–]NiceIce0 points1 point2 points 8 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
Sorry to see you go. Come back when you are a bit older. And, if you are unhappy with the posts you see - make the change you want to see. This is true with all of life.
[–]Mrplum0 points1 point2 points 8 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
The utility of this sub is that it give users their regularly prescribed dose of red pills, in case their daily lives don’t provide them enough already.
To your point of action, what can be done when the government is in bed with gynocracy and women, being the majority of voters along with their often cucked beta providers, can continue to pass more and more gynocentric legislation. Only when society feels the pain of many men going their own way will we see changes, and they will come with much hardship. Men have to contemplate if they really want to go back to the plantation and sacrifice on more favorable terms at that point or if a wet hole is worth all you give. If some male praying mantises knew their head would be bitten off after the female mates with them, I’m sure some would reject the wet hole and pursue other activities.
[–]N1ghtm6r3poo0 points1 point2 points 8 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
Sounds like you'd be more interested in r/gentlemenonly it's basically MGTOW but pro us not anti women
[–]fcb982920 points1 point2 points 8 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
Well damn, if that's not contradictory...
[–]FilthyWishDragon-1 points0 points1 point 8 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
Thanks for posting this. This is why I'm a lurker, and not a poster or subscriber. There's a lot true here. But the focus of the sub is so much on blanket condemnation of women - and I will always oppose condemning anyone for how they were born - and not how to live in rational self-interest, in decency and peace.
There was even a topic asking whether women should have voting rights, and the consensus was overwhelmingly that they shouldn't. I will never knowingly be a member of a group that wants to strip basic rights from half of humanity, whatever else they may be right about.
