I didn't choose the MGTOW Life...the MGTOW Life chose me

I’m still very much a romantic soul and if a woman who I found attractive also professed her attraction to me, I would dive headfirst into another relationship instantly. :grin:

Have you tried online dating?

I have two friends that got married with people they met online.

I’m voluntarily celibate, even though I get hit on constantly because I’m 6’6". So pretty much the same thing.

A little bit, though my experience with it was terrible. The only responses I got were bots and the services I tried wanted me to pay money to have conversations with them. :pensive:

I’m 6’3" and 190lbs but I’ve not been hit on for a very long time.

Ok, I don’t know that that qualifies you as MGTOW.

That sounds like those people who sit around talking about what they’d do if they won the lottery. If being rich was truly a priority to them (and they’re in the States and over 18) then they could make it happen.

Decide what you want and then go places where women like that are (where women like that are).

For some people, even if they won the lottery they’d still be too poor for a relationship in today’s society and legal system biases.

Then don’t get State married or knock up evil people?

Is that a thing?

Um, yes. Guys get fucked, and they should’t get fucked, but they get fucked when they choose wives for stupid reasons, don’t vet them long enough, or refuse to use bc.

I’d probably be MGTOW if I hadn’t met my wife, or another foreign woman. I think American women, in general, have an attitude and aims that are something in which I’m just not interested. That probably sounds horrible, but screw it. It is what it is. Actually, I think I was pretty resigned to that attitude when I met her. There’s something about women and reading signals. As soon as you don’t really give a crap, they’re more interested. I don’t buy into the psychology of dating, so instead of pretending I didn’t care, I just had to stop caring, if that makes sense. Then we met, and it was cool.

lol

I’m told you can find anything on Google, so I tried. Sadly, even Google didn’t seem to have what he’s looking for. :slight_smile:

I have to say that I totally understand the plight of these men. Seriously. You guys have a lot to be pissed off about! Your bodies are shamed and altered at birth without your consent, and then you aren’t allowed to express your feelings if they’re not macho, you are pushed to your limits and society expects you to be tough, but most of all you have to deal with choosing from 95% of women who are total fucking bitches. Yep, most women have such little regard and respect for the men in their lives. Just watch a typical sit-com (Everybody Loves Raymond, Home Improvement) and you’ll see how horribly husbands are casually abused by their wives.
My husband is lucky. I don’t give him freedom, he HAS freedom by virtue of being his own independent person, and together we make a nifty pair. He has a ton of hobbies he pursues, and I try not to get in his way. He does the heavy lifting, I cook (because I’m better at that), but above all, we are friends.

Maybe it’s that most people care about what could be described as superficial stuff that I don’t. That probably cuts out at least 95% of potential partners to begin with for me. And there is a certain intelligence component to that too.

I think a lot of “MGTOW” men seem to have above average intelligence and are really just looking for a smart woman who isn’t a conniving bitch. Statistical outliers looking for statistical outliers. Tough business.

allow me to suggest to everyone in this thread: grab a copy of AND read The Mask of Masculinity

I’m a gay man and a gay journalist, so I don’t need no book to tell me how to get in touch with my feminine side.

that’s not at all what the book is about… but by all means jump to conclusions
