I'm a long time lurker and still finding my way after divorce from a complete nutjob ex-wife.

The hardest thing I've found about MGTOW is that men who go their own way must find validation of their beliefs, personhood, and physical self in something other than women.

This was a foreign concept to me for most of my life, as my worth was closely tied to the validation I received from women. If we want to be powerful men, we must learn to generate validation of ourselves from within, and for many, me included, that's not an easy feat.
