Men are the majority of homeless, but women have the VAST majority of homeless shelters. Men are the majority of the unemployed, but the focus is on the made up pay gap. Domestic violence is pretty much an even split - but the focus is on male domestic violence. The majority of discretionary spending for health, education and welfare goes to women. Women now outnumber men on college campus - so unbelievably fake statistics were made up to persecute college men for regret-sex. Women get lower sentences or probation for equal crimes. That - or they just don't get arrested at all. You have Yes Means Yes - a movement by women to remove men's rights to presumption of innocence and due process. The list of con-games against men goes on and on.
That women were the historically oppressed, not men, is the biggest scam ever pulled on men, right after marriage-is-good-for-you and the white-knight-inspired laws for alimony and alimony+ (child support). If society didn't create the idea of provider and protector and drill this man-hating concept into men's heads through religion and media - most men would never have gotten married - and later destroyed by women through divorce.
Thanks to concepts like MGTOW, men are waking up to the scam called marriage and opting out the globe over - so much so that countries are now forcing defacto marriage through cohabitation - stating that the poor women get the short end of the stick in breakups with their boyfriends.
MGTOW exists due the the tens upon tens of millions of men's lives destroyed through marriage over the past 50+ years - in the US alone. MGTOW exists due to the tens upon tens of thousands of men that take their own lives every year as a result of divorce - in the US alone.
The most important thing I've learned regarding relationships with women is MGTOW.
I was a late bloomer and didn't really start dating until I was well into my 20s and lost my virginity closer to 30 than 20. Maybe that's why I don't see what all the fuss is about. I mean really, sex is overrated, and so are relationships. And yet, society expects me and other men to do x,y and z to "impress women" and "get girls" and go through all these hopes, do all this effort, just to attract a female. And once we get said female we are suppose to "grow up" and basically prostitute ourselves to a 9-5, even if we hate said 9-5, give up our own ambitions in favor of having kids, supporting a wife (so much for "independent women") and family and have no dreams aside from maybe getting a McMansion.
Enter MGTOW, an idea that was around before it had a name. It is about men rejecting the ideas of society and not denying ourselves to satisfy some woman's expectations or what society expects of men. It is NOT about men who don't want to grow up. The opposite, actually: I have a nice job, pay my own bills and even volunteer at a local animal shelter. I just don't spend any more time pursuing women because relationships as a whole are really not worth it. I would rather spend my time becoming a better writer of horror and fantasy or backpacking than trying to meet women at bars or online.
And it is not about hating women. I have more female friends than I do male friends. I have nothing against women as a whole. We don't believe women should be back in the kitchen. Most of us understand that women should be free to pursue whatever ambition they desire. Likewise, we want our own dreams to be OURS and not what society tells us. MGTOW is not anti-woman, but it is pro-men being free and liberated. Women do not have to stay in the kitchen and with the kids any more (thank God) and men don't have to climb the corporate ladder and jump through hopes to attract women and be hubbies anymore (thank God)
Also, MGTOW is as much a middle-finger to the older generation of men as it is to certain (but not all) women. We are telling our fathers and grandfathers that we see the lies they didn't see and that we know why they have grown into old, bitter men: they fell for it. The idea that I as a male have to become a walking ATM machine for a baby-factory who doesn't really care for me and I have to sell my soul for a "dream" of an ugly house filled with brats is dead. That McMansion is a gilded cage...emphasis on the cage part
And finally it is not about feminism. It may have been inspired by some ideas of feminism (if women can be liberated, than so can we) but this is not men giving up because women "refuse to be ladies". Even if I was around "Stepford Wife" kind of women I would still not want to go back to dating...in fact, that would be even worse! At least modern women can actually work and provide something material to a relationship in theory. Back in the day they were just free-loaders. Honestly: is a relationship and sex so important that I would give up my freedom to a free-loader? Not for me, it isn't, and not for a growing number of men.
That is what MGTOW is. It is men's liberation finally here and finally spreading. Deal with it
Your more bitter than relating anything wide spread. Hope you get help for your anger.
