What made you take the red pill?

[nagolbudSpectator 674]

If you can, share some of the videos, sources, or articles that made you aware of MGTOW.

Something you would share with a buddy if he were in you situation years back.

I was strafed with a red pill machine gun, stepped on a reg pill mine, then had a red pill grenade blow up in my face ejecting me overboard only to get hit directly by a red pill torpedo! Now I’m all blasted to s~~~!

But I’m red pill wise!

[NomadicExpatParticipant 1785]

I was telling my buddy about my divorce raping and he asked,

“Ever heard of MGTOW?”

He gave me the elevator pitch and that was it.

Found some s~~~ty MGTOW videos at first, but was interested in the overall message so kept digging.

Then I found my MGTOW Elders, Barbarossa and Star Dusk.

I cloistered in the house for a week, binging on their red pill greatness.

Then… I was one of THEM.

The aftermath of having slammed my head repeatedly against a brick wall and attempting to find out if women were capable of empathy, honesty & monogamy.

I eventually gave up and found a way out.

Not my problem anymore.

And, yes – F~~~s given.

It was life energy and time expended in the process.

NAWALTs could make things a little easier if they took the mask off and stopped trying to act like unicorns sooner.

But they enjoyed the games, deception and mind f~~~ing too much.

Oh well. Game over.

Free at last.

Hey, how many of you guys had a red pill enema??? They’re the best!

[Anonymous 18]

It was women.

They said its not what it seems.
They said may be its you, not us.

Some tried to use me as a backup plan
Others outright said I am with you because
You seem like the guy who would marry me

Time and again, my projection on to women
was never reciprocated

So one day a boy’s voice called within
He said you used to be cool, fun, and happy

The inner boy said may be, just may be
Women aren’t the answer

How about you stop acting like a man
And become a boy again

MGTOW has given my inner child a voice and more importantly ears of men who can relate to it.

[DucatiParticipant 42]

My red pill came after the ex trashed my house, kicked over my motorcycles, and crashed my car (3 times). I guess I was a slow learner…
After all that I instituted a zero tolerance policy for the slightest of bizarre/deviant behavior from women. Pick up a cell phone on a date…I’m gone. S~~~ test me…I’m gone. Raise your voice…I’m gone.
Raise a hand to me or my property and she will get f~~~ed up, laws be damned.

A life time of red pills.
Went my own way over a decade ago.
Then discoverd this site!

Similar minded Bone Heads!

[jimbob15217Participant 491]

For me it took a long overdue searching dig through the events of a lifetime. Starting with childhood all the way to the present, seeing how maleness is disfigured by society through the notions of disposibility, the “man up” mentality, the utter insanity and social futility of gynocentrism. It was not one thing or one event but in the end I saw that I was coming out on the losing end with women again and again and it couldn’t have been all my fault every single time. In fact I started to see that in many cases I wasn’t the problem at all and there was nothing wrong at all in the way I was living. Women will do just about anything to keep a guy around. Anything, that is, but consider what he might want.

[FunInTheSunParticipant 8289]

For me, it began with being frustrated with dating women because the relationships wouldn’t last long. Then buying PUA ebooks. Then discovering Tom Leykis videos on YouTube. Then Sandman and Barbarossa videos. Basically, I wanted to see how deep the rabbit hole was. That’s why I’m here, and the hole is pretty damn deep!

Relations~~~s were a major problem, but then I discovered another problem: my society is set up to cheat men out of their prosperity and well-being.

Living for myself is a bold idea. For me, it means: leaving traditions behind, not living to please family, friends, co-workers, politicians, etc., and not playing the role of disposable hero to my community. I feel liberated when I detach myself from the expectations of my society, and march to my own drumbeat—so to speak. Pursuing my own goals for the sake of my own happiness makes me feel alive. Working hard to make other people happy makes me feel dead inside.

"I saw that there comes a point, in the defeat of any man of virtue, when his own consent is needed for evil to win-and that no manner of injury done to him by others can succeed if he chooses to withhold his consent. I saw that I could put an end to your outrages by pronouncing a single word in my mind. I pronounced it. The word was ‘No.’" (Atlas Shrugged)

I think my red pill route might be fairly common.

Was getting my arse handed to me in the divorce process.
Was doing research on men’s rights to help my case and a UK men’s rights advocate tweeted about The Red Pill Movie.
Watched the movie, red pill rage ensued, went through various sites like Voice For Men etc.
Found Terrence Popp on Youtube and two particular videos made a big impact.

First the 500 Miles of Mr Right opened my eyes to women’s behaviour:

And then What is MGTOW? brought me here:

25 years of being ignored romantically/sexually, teased, and used only for my brains/help, by women, when I was always the Good Man that women supposedly wanted. So, after 25 years of confusion/frustration and after a 6-year period of analysis/reflection, I’m not bothered about women anymore, I have walked away from women, I have Taken The Red Pill, and I become NFG with women.

The honest truth is, as a 42-year-old man, if no woman ‘wanted’ me in her 16-25 years old ‘attractive/prime’ age period, i.e. 20 years ago, why would I want a woman now? Besides, modern women are not feminine/lady-like, not chaste/faithful, and they do not have the traditional values that makes a relationship within them tolerable; even if some younger woman did decide that she ‘wanted’ an older man like me. To be honest, modern women are worth nothing more than ‘pump and dump’; they are certainly not worth any kind of commitment from a man. But it is women themselves who have made the current situation. NFG.

Elementary school was a big red pill. Having my c~~~ teacher kick me in the b~~~~ and cuss me out for no reason at all. Then being forcibly drugged because my c~~~ teachers hated all men and boys. 12+ years of Gynocentric brainwashing and anti-male hatred at the hands of the school systems will give you one red pill after another. Its no wonder boys are going transgender, we are hated and THEY let us know it starting in Pre-School.

I was living the Blue Pill Nightmare, and stumbled upon MGTOW on the internet.

The Red Pill IS an ONGOING PROCESS.

I have constant reminders every day. My greedy land lord just asked for more money every month. I was like why? She was like idk I want more money. (pretty much)

She is retired and traveling lately and now thinks I should pay more. I said no and I would move out as soon as the rent goes up. Well looks like rent is going to stay the same….. women be so GREEEEEEEEDY

When I used to do security in 2015, I had access to the internet and did some research on the gender wars. It was then I found “MGTOW” I read one article between a woman who was NAWALT and a MGTOW representative. He pretty much shut her down while she was still bitching and shaming. After reading that I searched and came upon this website.

I had the red pill a long time ago as I felt something was off with women and the world. I just didn’t know what it was till I read it on here. Things made so much more sense when I joined up here. And realized I am not alone after all.

What people call "love" is just a chemical reaction that compels animals to breed. It hits hard, then it slowly fades, leaving you stranded in a failing marriage. Your parents are gonna do it. Break the cycle. Rise above. Focus on science.

[BadgerSwagParticipant 70]

I had long figured out that logic women were mutually exclusive. Coming on nearly 30 years in this marriage. We’d been to counseling and I realized the trips to counseling (we went to several, so she was clearly “opinion shopping”) were nothing more than attempts by her to seek vindication and have the counselor set me straight. We stopped when she just wasn’t making any progress at her shenanigans. I was searching the internet looking for answers… was I truly the one to blame for all of this mess? Then I stumbled onto the site. It was an eye opener. So many threads of the same crap I was dealing with. It was really educational. I was able to use the information and experiences of others to put my own game plan together. Different situations need different plans, but I think with what I’ve learned here, I’m much better able to protect myself and navigate via disengagement. So far, it’s going according to plan. I don’t talk about any of it, but remain civil and steer clear of violating any real rules that could allow her more of an advantage than she already has. Red pill forever. What a lifesaver!

[Knights Templar RisingParticipant 5133]

The Red Pill came to me slowly over the course of the year. It was due the conflicts I had with the ex all the time.

Sovereignty above all else.

[nagolbudSpectator 674]

It’s crazy how similar some of the stories are… like the women seriously go to academy for 20 years on how to manipulate, play games, and lie. I never saw MGTOW until just a few months ago. I kept chalking it up to sociopaths, narcissists, ect. Bad luck. My mom was one so I was just like well dude you must be attracting them. Then after my first MGTOW video, I forget how I stumbled on it.. but I was like duh dude. Its MOST of them. It was such a DUH moment. I had been through so much bulls~~~ but kept giving women in general the benefit of the doubt and obviously enjoy going b~~~~ deep. I was the blue pill to get laid red pill see ya later kind of guy but I had some serious relationships along the way and they all ended the same. Monkey branching, attempted monkey branching, lying, cheating, affairs, ect. Attempted monkey branching was funny, I made a fake facebook account and had her tricked in like 24 hours to come see me. She drove around for 2 hours on her moped looking for an imaginary guy… All this 2 weeks before we were getting our own place together. Then I looked around and remember dude this s~~~ is everywhere.

MGTOW boys. MGTOW.
