Men Going Their Own Way (MGTOW) is a relatively new social phenomenon that has gained traction in the digital age. MGTOW is an online community of men who proclaim their independence from traditional societal norms that they see as harmful to men. In this article, I will explore the origins of MGTOW, the beliefs and values of the movement, and why some men are considering, and even embracing, the MGTOW mindset.
Origins of MGTOW
The MGTOW movement originated in the United States in the early 2000s as an offshoot of the Men’s Rights Movement (MRM). The MRM was a response to feminism, which was seen as negatively impacting men’s rights, particularly in the areas of child custody, domestic violence, and divorce settlements. It provided a space for men to engage in discussions and activism to promote their rights and interests.
MGTOW, on the other hand, is a response to the perceived negative impact of traditional gender roles on the lives of men. The movement argues that men are being exploited by women, feminists, and society at large. Men are increasingly seen as disposable and are encouraged to serve the needs of women and society without receiving any benefits in return.
Beliefs and Values of MGTOW
At the heart of MGTOW is the belief that men can live happy and fulfilled lives without romantic relationships with women. The movement advocates for personal autonomy and the rejection of traditional gender roles, such as the expectation that men must be providers and women must be caregivers. MGTOW argues that men have been conditioned to be disposable providers with no agency or power in their relationships.
MGTOW also rejects the notion of masculinity as toxic and argues that men should embrace their natural masculine traits. The movement holds that men are being forced to suppress their natural selves to conform to the ideals of the feminist and mainstream media. In the MGTOW worldview, men are not the problem; society is.
Why Men are Going Their Own Way
The reasons why men are going their own way vary, but they all center around a sense that they are being exploited and undervalued. Some men who are considering MGTOW are reluctant to engage in romantic relationships because they fear legal and financial consequences such as child support and alimony. Others have experienced relationship breakdowns and see MGTOW as a way to protect themselves from future heartache.
MGTOW also attracts men who have been rejected, cheated on, or otherwise mistreated by women. These men argue that the current social climate encourages and enables women to behave poorly towards men without consequence.
Men Going Their Own Way is a growing social phenomenon that is a response to the perceived negative impact of traditional gender roles on men. The movement advocates for personal autonomy and the rejection of traditional expectations of masculinity. While MGTOW is not without its detractors, it has provided a space for men to discuss and address the real issues faced by men in today’s world. It remains to be seen how the MGTOW movement will develop and impact society in the years to come.
I've developed such disdain for Western Women, that if I even look at feminist female, I'm repulsed...
Blue hair? Shaved side of head? Rainbows (This is the hardest, because I know the original meaning and my daughter also thinks they are pretty)? -- ALL Of them, I get repulsed by... They're disgusting, and honestly? It provokes emotions of anger and resentment just to even see, or even hear about them...
The problem isn’t a traditional woman. Hell, I would reconsider a relationship at some point if the woman had a traditional attitude and traditional feminine qualities. My issue is with the modern woman. Those are the ones that seem to look at men as a meal ticket. They are making a career out of being self absorbed and toxic.
I mean bro as crazy as this sounds to some people, it’s undeniable. Men built this country just like every other country on the planet. If we just backed away and stopped the upkeep of labor, every country would be without all these conveniences. And within a year, we would be treated like traditional men again lol. The delusion is strong with this generation. But unfortunately there are too many mighty mouses and marks in this generation too.
Another thing is the military. Our enemies would pounce on us the second they saw that women ran the military. It’s not sexist, it’s reality. My first wife is active duty as well. I watched her cry and try to come up with every excuse not to deploy to Afghanistan. And she is super tough for a woman.
This girl comes in. Not bad looking, slim and pretty in a pink two piece. Not bad. But why should I give AF?
She sits down dips her feet in the water.... And I swear she was fishing to see which one of us guys was gonna swim over like a piranha and get a chance to lick the nail polish right off her toes🤣. Her while posture, demeanor, she's looking around this way and that...
Not a single one of us four guys moved a muscle. Didn't look at her didn't give her an inch. Ya got a grandpa, two chads, and then there's me.
Ten minutes and she's OUT like the water was too hot. "Wham!!" Goes the door back to her locker room. You could tell she wasn't happy. And maybe I'm reading it wrong, sure it's possible. But this happens alot at the gym.
Fellas.... When your at the gym... Make sure and be aware of what's going on around you. There are constantly women trying to make a problem where there wasn't one to begin with. Make friends with the staff, let em know who you are.
Women.... Are literally about to find out after having fucked around for a bit too long.
I've had women dressed in their Sunday best step in front of my menu in the Drive-Thru to tell me I look, "Cute".
My head turned to look at one when she said I was cute, I nodded, no smile on my face and then leaned to the side to look behind her, to see what Donuts I wanted from Dunkin Donuts.
Don't even offer these women your awareness, until they flat out ASK for it. Even then? At best, you should only acknowledge and simply move on. Engagement only risks accusation...
