The way I define monk mode is that a person stays away from sex. They can still masturbate and use porn or sex toys however.
I’m also a virgin. So staying in “monk mode” isn’t that big of a deal to me. Especially since I’m past my teen years.
I’ve also come across a few reddit posts on the MGTOW subreddit. It talks about “sexual transmutation.”
https://www.reddit.com/r/MGTOW/duplicates/2r8q0a/the_mystery_of_sex_transmutation_think_and_grow/
“Sex transmutation is simple and easily explained. It means the switching of the mind from thoughts of physical expression, to thoughts of some other nature.”

I do use porn about 3 times a day. However, it’s usually late at night or early in the morning. That way, I don’t have to worry about being stressed out and thinking about sex all the time in the day. At night, I use porn/masturbation as a sleep aid to release all the pent up sexual desires I’ve had throughout the day.
This allows me to have a clear head and not make any stupid decisions regarding women. It’s also allowed me to save large amounts of money I would have spent on hookers/escorts.
I also don’t have any need for condoms because of this. Which is a big plus as well.

The other 3 major benefits of “monk mode” are:
1. No pregnancy scares
2. No fear of false rape accusation/false domestic abuse accusations
3. All of your time is spent on you or whatever the f~~~ you want to do. It’s never spent on bimbos/hookers/escorts
Also, you’ll most likely become like George when he stopped having sex:

Anonymous42The benefits of monk mode, hmmm???,,,
No playing multiple games of Russian Roulette on multiple levels, using multiple weapons, and only 5% of the ammunition are blanks.Anyone care to roll around in a minefield where there’s everything from jumping jacks to tank busters? If that isn’t bad enough, this deadly assortment of mines are planted only inches apart!!!
Technically you can be blown from one mine landing on another, being blasted to pieces until there’s nothing left of you!
You make good points about avoiding pregnancy, false rape accusations and saving money, but I will attest to you that it is possible to have regular sex AND a rich and meaningful intellectual life at the same time.
The problem of having your attention absorbed by sex isn’t about HAVING sex, it’s about NOT having sex and OBSESSING about it. To my mind, it’s the same thing as being on a diet where you keep telling yourself not to eat donuts and then all you can think about is donuts… so you eat three non-fat “treats” a day and convince yourself they’re just as good even though you know they are not.
And then you tell your friends about how not eating donuts has become an important part of your life, essentially making the concept of donuts all that much more important!
So unless you’re hideously unappealing to women or intend to expend a significant amount of effort avoiding having sex for your entire life, let me suggest that you may wish to find a more balanced approach.
1) Go get laid. Break the seal, dispell the mystery, cash in your v-card. You’ll find that the reality of it is both more appealing in some ways and less appealing in other ways than you expected. And now you’ll know what it is you’re talking about.
2) If you have the resources at all, get a vasectomy. Now the problem with unplanned pregnancy, the worst of the bunch, is solved.
3) Find a girl you like okay but who isn’t particularly interesting or attractive to you and develop a Friends with Benefits relationship with her. It’s socially useful to have a woman in your life in some circumstances and you can get together to knock one out now and then, which is a healthy and natural thing to do.
4) Now, with a clear head, empty b~~~~ and the positive feeling you’ll have from a good, clean and honest f~~~, you can get back to work.
5) If you can build trust with your FwB and not pursue other women or put yourself in situations where you’ll be tempted to f~~~ them, you can avoid problem 2 with about 99% certainty. Believe me, rape accusations are not as common as all that… in my entire sexually active life (33 years now) I’ve never encountered a hint of scandal or unjust accusations… probably because my ethic is to always leave a woman slightly better off than I found her (the National Park theory of dating).
6) Stop talking about sex. When the urge comes, knock one out with your FwB or do it yourself if she’s not available, clean up the residue and get on with your day like it’s no big deal… because it isn’t.
Building an entire philosophy of life around avoiding sex and then wanking to porn three times a day while proudly proclaiming how free you are from the tyranny of women is about as obsessive a thing as I can imagine.
The Ancient Romans regarded obsessing about sex as effeminate. That’s right. A PUA, or an outspoken jerk-off would have been thought of as a girly man in the days of the Roman Empire.

I also include in my definition of monk mode; a state of mind and/or lifestyle that avoids interruptions or distractions. These can interfere with pursuits or even derail progress along the path currently chosen. In other words, in my life, monk mode can extend into areas beyond sexuality including choices, use of free time, avocations, minimalism, architecture and design of personal spaces, goals and productivity and even to what extent one accepts and incorporates technology.
@doc Fenderson
Oh, I’m not avoiding having sex at all. I just think it’s overrated as f~~~. I also get that thing about George on Sienfield. There are many MGTOWs who have sex regularly and are smarter than many of us here. The best example I can come with is Tom Leykis. Self made millionaire who lives the MGTOW lifestyle.
I only wrote this post for MGTOW who are thinking of avoiding sex. Or, already are.
Plus, I may or may not end up having sex with women. But, I’m never going to have sex with western women. I’d rather go travel to Latin or Asian country. I find those women to be hotter than western women.
@doc Fenderson
Also, my point was about the clip of Seinfield was this:
I think of PUAs exactly like George in that clip. MGTOWs, as a general rule, aren’t like that.
MGTOWs know that sex is just a biological function. And they try to rise above obsessing over it. (Or most do anyway)
PUAs just obsess over sex like women obsess over sex when they’re trying to have kids.
