You guys seem pretty nice so I hope you like it.

What is a story you want to share about something that really helped to be attracted to MGTOW?

As I said in my bio, obviously, the fight to have me in my sons life was the main thing that drew me to MGTOW.

But since then I have seen how feminism is really driving people apart and when I found out women were by far more child abusers the whole “women fart rainbows” thing was over for me.

For instance: You hear stories about men being afraid to help children. One thread that stands out as being true on most MRA and MGTOW websites, the desire for kindness and concern for children, not male, not female, all children.

This is an inspirational story of a typical day in how men really are and really treat children: http://www.autismspeaks.org/news/news-item/man-dies-trying-save-boy-autism-drowning

What kind of world has been created when men are afraid to be kind to children?

I will not shirk to help a child in need just because I’m afraid of what some self important backward dyke get’s miffed.

Here’s a kinda intro to me, to put things in things about me in context.

Here’s what happened. I saw a young man, a fellow sailor, foundering at sea and I went out to help him. Then this feminist witch started hurling insults at me and him! I was worried she’d report me or something but there was no way I wasn’t going to help this kid.

I got him out of there, no feminist will get in my way, but I realize the risk I was taking, helping a child in public and that has to be weighed when ever helping a child in public.

This kinda changed the way I saw feminist’s attitude toward children, especially male children.

btw: This woman didn’t report me but was from the neighborhood and started harassing me. I’ll tell you some more stories later.

…from before the 3rd wave feminist invasion.

I came to mgtow after searching for over 6 months for a website for men. I am a man and there is only 1 group in my city that meets once per week to talk about men/emotions/feelings etc. It’s an all mens group and I am glad it exists. However I needed more.

I searched the internet and all I got were phone numbers to help/suicide lines. Not my thing. Feminism exploded 6 months ago with the gamergate thing and I have NEVER been more p~~~ed off in my life. That is when the realization happened. I went on a crusade bashing the evil feminists. I soon got more educated and realized most of my problems stemmed from my ex girlfriend.

I searched the internet but couldn’t find a forum to post on that would listen to me. I actually made a tumblr account to read anti-feminism blogs. These linked me to youtube. The video’s led me to mgtow because I had no idea what the acronym “mgtow” meant. I googled it and fell in love instantly. THIS is the website and lifestyle I was looking for, but could not find it until 2-3 weeks ago. I have been living this way for 3 years or longer but I had no idea there was a name for it!

I am just so grateful I can share my stories here and hopefully other men can learn something from them and not make the same mistakes I did. I am just so happy I didn’t get married or have kids. Thankfully I didn’t f~~~ up that bad.

I am so scared of being sent to jail or being wrongfully accused that I won’t help people in trouble. It may be cruel, but it is not my problem anymore. I can’t take that risk. If I am on the Titanic and it is sinking, then f~~~ the women and children. I am getting on a boat whether they like it or not.

Equal rights eh!

What got me to MGTOW status?  Two s~~~ty marriages to two s~~~head wimmenz.  Both put up a good front only to reveal what irresponsible spoiled entitled t~~~s they truly were after saying, “I do!”.  I have also had a long string of girlfriends throughout my life.  Some were educated.  Some were not.  But the two things they all had in common is A.) They were all entitled and B.) They were all dumber than a box of hair.

I’m in my late 40s.  I’m too old for this s~~~.  Hookers and hot rods for this MGTOW now!

HISTORY...learn from it, memorize it, DON'T repeat it...

I was 14 or 15 at the time so i had no clue why so many divorced, but it didn’t matter because I was certain that I or my mate would not be any better, so i skipped the thought altogether.

It was a major blow to me tbh, since there weren’t many divorces among my friend circle, and it totally changed my way of thinking forever.

I’m sure that movie saved me from alot of potential pain though.

Bumper to bumper. My mom was driving. We had an appointment for something in the city, and I thought this must be hell … 5 days a week…. 2 hours in either direction… for decades. Like a scene from a movie, I was slumped down in my seat staring out the window saying nothing…. and the camera was looking at me from the outside with rain against the glass. (just had to paint that picture for visual effect). I knew I would go crazy if that was my future. I said “I will never do this”. She asked what? “I will never sit in traffic for hours every day like these people. I would go insane.”

“DONT SAY THAT!” she said… “You don’t know that you won’t”.

“Oh yes I do. I will never do it.”

Then she started going on about people in the suburbs who are paying their mortgages, they have to do it. And I said no they f~~~ing don’t. $200K for a house… 4 hours in transit every day door to door….. and every few years you need to buy a new car!. What the f~~~ is the point? Buying a house to save money and you gotta buy more cars and gas and lose all that time. All I could think of was a hamster on a wheel.

It was probably the first moment where I knew I had to GMOW. And I did it instinctively ever since. Never really thought about it. Every single major decision I made in my life was against a never-ending wall of non-support, deterrents and non-encouragement I got no matter where I was – or who I was with. It’s like swimming f~~~ing upstream all the f~~~ing time. The current going one way… I was going the other.

I successfully avoided that 2/3/4 hour endless 5 days a week rush-hour traffic s~~~ TO THIS DAY.

Every once in a while I reminded my Mom of this conversation, because if she had it her way, I would live 3 minutes away from her (like my married brother with 2 daughters does). She conveniently doesn’t remember that conversation. He lives every day in organized, scheduled slavery like he is perfectly content. Now I live 2500 miles away and have been to every continent except Antartica. But I did make it all the way to the southernmost tip of south America. Close enough. I saw penguins in their natural habitat. My home town is the only city in the world where I dry my hands with the wrong towel, eat with the wrong spoon, drink from the wrong cup, think the wrong thoughts.

For me, that’s hell. I just had to get the f~~~ out as far as possible. And did.

MGTOW is a calling.

If you keep doing what you've always done... you're gonna keep getting what you always got.

Puff-n-Stuff helped Jimmy, all Whitchie would need to do is yell “PEDOPHILE” and poor old H.R.’s life would be ruined in an instant. H.R. would eventually be cleared of all charges while Whitchie suffered no consequences for the lies she has told, or for the lives she has ruined. Meawhile, with his reputation in tatters, and his livelihood lost, H.R. would exile to Lidsville. This, in an effort to peace together some semblance of the life he led before the lies and deceit destroyed him in the blink of an eye.
But alas, the damage has already been done. Even his friends The Banana Splits secretly wonder if H.R. could have done what he was accused of doing.

— The above didn’t happen to me, but did happen to a man whom I had known and respected for many decades. Those of us who knew him best knew 100% that the accusations were lies by the mother intended to separate that father from his children…forever. With zero evidence, with no witnesses, and with no input from the children, the State was all too willing to “err on the side of caution” and granted a permanent restraining order against him. Three weeks later, this loving father of two calmly walked out onto his front yard with a shotgun, and blew his own brains out.

This is what turned me completely MGTOW.

Being f~~~ed over (emotionally abused) in arguments repeatedly by my mom. Being bitched at by her, her mother, her mother inlaw, my aunts, my sisters, girls online, girls offline etc.

2. Seeing how society is structured to f~~~ men over should anything go wrong
