I’ve been keeping an eye on Men’s rights content for some time. I have 3 son’s and I have to help them navigate through a very toxic landscape.

The good messaging in MGTOW say’s that Men should focus on building themselves and their life. We should lift each other up and encourage each other to be wise, make good decisions, take ownership of our lives and be men.

The bad messaging says that all women are whores and should be used as such or ignored and made fun of.

There is a satisfaction in watching women hit the wall and realize that they have wasted the first part of their lives, but we shouldn’t dwell there, we should make sure that we don’t waste our lives.

I made this sub as a place holder, I will probably make others communities as well so I can seed the ground and keep things as free speech as possible.

This place will be different however. Users posting nihilist content will get a warning for the first offence and be banned for the second. There are forces out there actively pushing for people to lose hope. Not here.

    Hey welcome! Thanks for starting a new community, I look forward to the conversation. Let us know if you have any trouble setting a community Icon or Banner, it was playing up for others before.

    More on the topic, I’ve always felt like turning men and women against each other is the objective, so some aspects of MGTOW feel like an over-correction which also doesn’t help.

    In other words I agree with the “good messaging” as you say, and strongly disagree with the “bad messaging”. I like the angle you’re going for.

    Maybe we just need to learn how to spot the crazies so we know to steer away from them in particular. I think most women I’ve met have been reasonably level headed, but it only takes one nutter to fuck your life up.

      True, true and true. For the record and for full disclosure I have been married for a long time. I feel that men are at their full potential only when they are living a sacrificial life and for most men that would be raising a family. The only reason this content is allowed on the internet is that the ‘agenda’ is to drive men and women apart. I think that the fix is for men to be the best version of themselves - we have one thing that women don’t. That thing is time. If men become strong again, I think most men will come out as victors.

        I completely agree, men are happy when they feel like they have a purpose. This content is allowed to fester because it fuels the fire, both men and women who are trapped in these narratives see the other as proof that they are right.

        I agree that the best way forward is to just work on yourself and try to be a better person, the same is true for women I think. Men do have the advantage of time, you’re right, which is ironic since women on average live longer. More time to be miserable in some cases
