I support anyone going their own way. I understand the arguement that family court is biased against fathers. I find women to be overly emotional and touchy, (im sure some men are too) but God how I love their being. The most powerful drive is to procreate, But them evening tv shows I can do without

Relationships are about compromise and working together to achieve agreed upon goals. One side shouldn't dominate the relationship, and if that is the case it's probably a dysfunctional relationship. I've been with my SO for 43 years. We consider ourselves equal partners and agree on anything important. The ability to compromise helped my marriage and also helped in my work life. I was a manager for 20 years, but I considered myself part of the team and considered each member of team as valuable as I was. That concept lead to a successful 31 year career.


If you can't compromise, definitely go your own way.

People need to recognize that a lot of these movements have been nurtured by leftists to serve as honeypots for people they desire to radicalize to further an agenda.

Sexual capitalism. The rich get richer and the poor get poorer. That leaves large groups of men who can't get laid and possibly never will. It is good that these men can get together and commiserate with each other but the MGTOW movement approaches this in a way that is unhealthy and sometimes even dangerous. The focus in on the anger at rejection and the bitterness that comes from wallowing in it. There is no attempt to focus that pent up frustration in productive ways. So no, I do not think it is a good thing, at least not in its current form.

Incels is involuntarily celibate. Mass murderer Elliott Rodgers is the father of that.

However, some of the general talking points have merit.
This right here. I view MGTOW about the same as I view modern feminism.

Not sure what to do about these young men, however. women can't be forced to have sex with them nor can the men be forced to get help for mental and emotional issues.
I suspect many of these men have a range of Autism where they have trouble relating to people in general but you put it a whole lot nicer that I would.

There are a lot of lonely females looking for a decent guy. Too bad these guys don't or can't relate and find these lonely ladies. Many also have problems just like the men on how to find someone and relate.

Many of their insecurities are society induced. Just as those who are in the depths of the opiod epidemic in the rust belt are dying from their insecurities that are society induced. Doesn't have sexual partners, doesn't have the manufacturing job to live a life their parent's did.
