How did you discover mgtow.com

[Blue SkiesParticipant 15665]

It would be interesting to find out how you ended up here.

For me, I clicked on sandman videos because it was recommended on my youtube side bar. All of his videos have MGTOW in the title. I googled MGTOW, having no idea what it is, and clicked on the first link.

here i am.

MGTOW is not a movement, it is a way of life.

As I recall, I first heard of MGTOW from Tommy Sotomayor and went looking for it and found this site..

I was playing World of Warcraft and I was clowning fat chicks in tradechat when I got called out by some SJW’s for being a douche/chauvinist and I said “I will stop clowning chicks for being fat when women stop clowning men for being short”. I went on to argue that a fat chick can at least do something about it, a short guy can do nothing at all, so which is worse to make fun of??? Some guy then told me I was MGTOW and that I should check this site out… so here I am.

I was really restless last summer at the idea that I’d only have 2-3 good years to set up my career before being married (traditional in my family).

At the same time, I had been exposed to a series of “gold digger” youtube prank videos, and although they were meant as a joke, I was shocked because the women seemed so genuine….they seemed exactly like those who I saw around me everyday….treated a guy like crap until he had money, at which point they became loving and caring.

Furthermore, I was reading what some friends of friends on my Facebook wrote about false rape accusations- they wrote that it was a real problem and needed to be addressed. I saw several people personally attacking these friends of friends, and that infuriated me.

Before I knew it, I was googling things like “I don’t want to get married” and “Single guy for life” and I came across this website.

Explored it for two to three days before creating an account, and here I am 🙂

wow, i’m glad you found mgtow just in time….congrats pal.

I was already a member on an older MGTOW forum.
Been a promoter of male sovereignty ever since.

I was a confirmed bachelor about two years ago. I was told I was one of the MGTOW by a pal who had heard of the term. I started searching the web and YouTube and one of those sites recommended MGTOW.com.

Without my pal’s tip off, I would still be a confirmed bachelor. Regardless of the label attached, there is no way I would enter the emotional and economic doom called marriage these days.

Society asks MGTOWs: Why are you not making more tax-slaves?

Awesome. Would be great to destroy some Horde with a fellow brother! 🙂

Thank you! Yeah it is a real pleasure to be here and I am so grateful I learned about this option. I will never, ever sacrifice my newfound sovereignty to anyone.

i think the biggest challenge for me with regards to mgtow is ignoring the opinions of my parents. any advice on this?

I actually heard about Mgtow for the first time about a year in a half ago. For some reason, I just didn’t get into it. I had already made the decision that marriage was stupid, and I thought it was cool that other guys figured it out but that was it. After a week or two of browsing Mgtow and MRA blogs, I stopped and forgot about it. Over the next few months, my situation had changed. My college decided to include a mandatory course at the beginning of the semester that is basically one of those “don’t rape you stupid evil white men” pieces of garbage. Then the campus alerts about sexual assault increased in frequency. Basically feminism became even more in my face and got me searching for answers. I stumbled upon Mgtow again and remember how much sense it had made in the past. However this time, I developed my understanding about the red pill truths. Before all all that, I was just a “I’m not interested in a relationship or marriage type guy”. I had other goals and I just figured a women wouldnt help the situation. I knew women werent the angels society made them out to be, but I never really thought about it any farther than that. In my second encounter with Mgtow, I spent a lot of time educating myself through blogs on truths like hypergamy and how corrupt the laws are against men. I got to hear the stories of divorce raped men. As spread my search for truth beyond blogs, I found this place. I don’t know why, but for some reason I knew this was the place where I would try to participate in the mgtowsphere. After a couple of weeks lurking as a visitor, I decided to join as a member and here we are now.

I don’t mean to sound like I’m kissing ass, but your post are actually one of the things that got me interested in the site. I saved one of them in particular. It was a drinking with stealthy post about a Walmart c~~~ with 400 grit sandpaper hands. I use 400,grit sandpaper almost everyday, so I liked the metaphor a lot and the whole thing was hilarious.

Yep! I’m fighting the same fight over here. Parental pressure.

Initially, I was openly sharing with them that I was never going to marry. Their response? A sarcastic “Okay, sure, you won’t get married. No problem”

A few months later, when they saw how I was ignoring attractive women/not chasing anyone, they started saying things like “You’ll find a gorgeous bride one day, and she’ll be amazing,” Basically trying to reprogram me Disney-Style. Well, TBH, my dad is staying out of it. My mom is the main one pushing this.

So my reaction? I’ve written her off completely. No contact. Ice cold.

Now, however, I am developing a new tactic in this fight. I’m going to begin “covert operations.” You see, My mom is VERY persuasive and easily influences my entire family’s thought process. Here’s why: a) She has this amazing ability to make you feel heard. She will willingly listen to me happily talk about not marrying for 35 mins on the phone. b) She cooks AMAZING food. So I love hanging around near her for that.

I just know that she can easily make me change my mind about this whole MGTOW thing. She’ll make some amazing food, talk very kindly, listen to my concerns, and then bam! before you know it, I’m agreeing to give women another chance. It’s like this irreparable weakness I have.

So, my covert operation: Eliminate 99% of my resistance. Become total blue-pill on the surface. I need to make my mom believe that I’m no longer red-pill. When she says “what do you think of this girl?” I will respond with “Oh man she’s gorgeous! I’d love to date her!”

Then, when I meet the girl, overwhelm her with neediness and drop big hints about a poor future (I can say something like I only plan to work 4-6 hrs/week, I like playing video games, I’ve already had a vasectomy so no kids, etc.).

Can’t marry me off if no girl wants me now can you?

Some of you will say “Dude just ignore your mother.” Well, for me, this kind of thing isn’t easy. Truth is, my parents are solid in every other aspect except for this, and I LOVE them. I am not willing to destroy a relationship with them because of disagreements about marriage. Are they trying to manipulate me? Sure. Will I give in? Nope.

I came across this site while reading the Dalrock blog. So thankful that I did. This site/forums are like getting a PHD in fighting the onslaught of feminism and reclaiming our rightful place as men.

Oh man, I never really thought about how hard it would be if I were MGTOW at 20 or something. Back then I was a rebel, but still pretty blue pill in most regards. Just remember, it is ok to date and have relationships, it is on the other hand HIGHLY unadvisable to marry, or even have kids unless it is really what YOU want. Other than that, do as you please in life, do not let others influence you. Just man up and tell them it is your life and you will live it as you see fit.

I kept googling women were evil and s~~~. Here I am

[нσтησσвParticipant 830]

was trying to find a group of people that agreed with not dating women and for the various reasons.

ran into “asexual” people, and MRA’s. Got fed up with MRA’s turning completely mangina over these so called, “MRA women,” this odd term kept popping up in the comments of people who were also outraged… kept saying “MGHOW” WTF IS THAT! After much googling… MUCH MUUUUCCH googling, i found out that MGHOW was MGTOW, and here i am.

My Goal: To Leave Society.

Bunker kept me here too with the “cum on curtains” story made me laugh during a really down day so I felt at home here and moved in. Sandman started the whole thing with me but after a few days I wanted more in depth information so I googled mgtow and it landed me here,its was love at first site !

Never lose sight of what brought you here.

[Anonymous 29]

A little over two years ago I stumbled on an article about men going their own way. However, life was busy and I didn’t pick up
the trail of crumbs until early last year that led to MGTOW.com.
Yeah, so I knew it existed around june 2015.
A few weeks later I joined up.
