I’ve been MGTOW nearly my whole life. It was hard not to be after watching the marriages in my family, my parents one especially. I remember being 7-8 years old and declaring “I’m never getting married me” in front of my aunties, uncles, grandparents etc at a family gathering and receiving “oh, you’ll change your mind as you grow up.” I’m 24 now and I’m still saying the same thing, except the replies are starting to sound less convinced of their own words. I’m on my way to becoming the pariah within the family and I don’t mind one bit.

The title of this intro sums up the end of four strong friendships I had from my early school years up until last year. They all ended for similar reasons. Women don’t want their boyfriends hanging around with me. I have to say it takes some nerve to justify such opinions considering I’d known these gentlemen for 10+ years and these women think they can come in and sever ties with a word. Though they’re not wrong are they? Most men seem to have a very hard time saying the word ‘no.’

One thing I’ve noticed here in the UK is how quickly MGTOW philosophy has spread. It may not be called by name, but the tenets are there. I meet so many guys now who have no time for women and the idea of marriage sickens them. It’s not surprising considering you only have to flick through a newspaper, watch an advert or tv show or speak to some female students on a night out to see just how deep the feminist virus has spread. It’s ubiquitous and though most guys don’t have a conscious awareness of it I’m convinced they feel its breath on their neck.

Anyway this post was just to say Hi and I look forward to reading more posts from you guys.

Oh and welcome….I think there’s quite a few of us Brits on here!

I remember being 7-8 years old and declaring “I’m never getting married

This is sounding very familiar…

and receiving “oh, you’ll change your mind as you grow up.”

…indeed, very familiar.

Hm.

I have memories of this as well. I always heard these phrases growing up. “Once you will be married…” or “Once you will have your own kids…” or “Once you finish university…”

At one point i just had enough, went down on them in a fury, to which they (ofcourse mostly women) said ” Oh, you will change your mind and understand once you get older.”  I was so sick of it i just outright told them “Look, if you will continue this, you can forget about seeing me sit at this table ever again.” to which i got a response of disbelief.

And so, they didn’t see me for 2  years. Now they no longer f~~~ me with because they know that I AM capable of leaving behind and forgetting anyone if they give me a reason to do so.

A warm welcome to you.

Thank god for the internet and sites like this, so now men can come together, talk, support and discuss their way out of this mess.

Amen.

Where do you meet these other blokes with a similar philosphy? I am neck deep in maginas at work, home and on the street.

I meet them everywhere man, hiding in plain sight it seems. I often tend to end up having conversations with guys in bars about it. Conversations about MGTOW, or near enough to MGTOW that your average blue piller can swallow it, still seem to seperate the ‘men from the boys’ if you will, but I’m always surprised just how many young blokes I come across who feel the same way. Even where I work, which is heavily gynocentric, there are a few dudes there that subscribe to the ‘philosophy.’ I put philosophy in quotes because they don’t actively live their lives calling themselves MGTOW or any other label, they just have no interest in the traditional ‘life route.’ Plus, the women where I work are incredibly toxic so it rubs off on the dudes there.

Now they no longer f~~~ me with because they know that I AM capable of leaving behind and forgetting anyone if they give me a reason to do so.

I hear you. To be fair, at this point my family have stopped bothering me about the whole issue, but I can tell they’re  still thinking things like “maybe he’s gay” or whatever. At this point I don’t even blame them. Most of them grew up pre-internet and just never really questioned certain things. My dad is currently engaged to his soon to be second wife and I’m constantly asking myself ‘why?’ There’s no reason for him to do it other than some mild social pressure and yet he still ploughs headfirst into it. It seems crazy to me, but I guess it’s just a “That’s what we do.It’s what we’ve always done” mentality.

In the UK at least, there are quite a few what I call ‘purple pill’  men. They haven’t gone full red pill but they know that something is deeply wrong with modern relationships. I know a fair few men like this.

Some of them have scratched the surface of red pill thinking on the net, but seem to get put off by ‘bitterness’, ‘misogyny’ labels etc. Brits are also very wary of anything they think is ‘fake’ in human relationships, like ‘game’, ‘pick up techniques’ etc, without realising that many women fake things all the time to get what they want.
