While womens reactions to MGTOW can expectedly be one of shock and to react against it, what do men think when they first hear the MGTOW message, and what are their own individual reactions to it? It seems that like any other idea or philosophy in this world, there are incredibly diverse reactions to MGTOW amongst all men after they hear, study, and begin to understand the MGTOW movement and what its adherents believe and how they choose to live their lives.
MGTOW is a shocking message, and it does initiate an instant reaction in both men and women, where each sex must and does seriously examine themselves, the lives they’ve lived thus far, the belief systems that have been taught to them as being normal their entire lives, and to honestly evaluate the way all of society has changed and what it has become. MGTOW forces everyone to take a position on the topic, including varying degrees of being for or against the ideology, of even to run away from it altogether and to stick one’s head in the sand to pretend it doesn’t exist; as a means of avoiding the harsh message which they do not want to have to admit to themselves.
Initiation of the MGTOW message also forces one to re-evaluate their future life path too.
Following are some of the reactions men may have to hearing the MGTOW message.
Brushing MGTOW Aside
These men hear their first MGTOW message, then instantly brush it aside as irrelevance or as meaningless. This would usually be the case arising from a brief glance over the message while busy, or as a brush off as MGTOW being just another “movement”. Equally as likely though is that this reaction may be of the ostrich when hearing a truth they are not yet ready to fully ingest, so down goes their heads into that sweet desert sand, with eyes closed and fingers in their ears while humming a favorite tune so they cannot hear any more.
They Believe The Message But Cannot Go Their Own Way
These men get it. They hear of MGTOW and believe in that which it speaks of as being truth to them, and they seek out all information and viewpoints on the topic, until they can find their own balanced opinion of the subject. Yet, these men cannot go their own way themselves.
Either they continue to hold out hope for ‘the one’, or they are already committed to a woman, or even have other life commitments that prevent them from going their own way. Life is indeed complicated for everyone, and these men will usually continue to educate themselves on MGTOW and society as a whole; they will be awakened much more, but they cannot go their own way. Yet.
Some Men Will Be Turned Off By More Extreme MGTOW Ideologies
All men going their own way are their own men of course, each with different opinions about everything in life, including MGTOW. However some aspects of MGTOW discussion can be extreme in their viewpoints in many different topics. Some men, while believing in and living the MGTOW philosophy, will not associate themselves within MGTOW communities or associate with the title of MGTOW, due to some of these more unusual beliefs.
So while technically MGTOW, these men will not join a part of these communities, and so will become outsiders to the movement. Perhaps a new name will form for these men if a slightly different breakaway MGTOW belief system does happen one day?
The Future MGTOW Who Can’t Yet Take In The Message
MGTOW is a shock for all to hear the first time. Perhaps more so for the man who has heard the message and believed it. Because if he has believed it as a truth to him, this then forces this man to make a decision about his own life. A decision that he may not be ready to make.
Think about it. That a man must make a decision to fully accept a new inerrant fact that he will never marry in his life, that he will never have children, that there will be no home baked cookies or a white picket fence… that all those deeply ingrained hopes and dreams of his entire life belief system, can now never happen. Not because he cannot begin to walk the path of marriage and family, but that the risks to him of incredible life loss for doing so are just so great now that it is completely foolhardy to even try to be one of the lucky men who are not destroyed by marriage, or even destroyed just by casual association with a woman who later files false accusations against him.
This man must initially walk away from MGTOW, to forget it, the truth is too harsh to him and he is not ready to accept that truth into his life, or to make the necessary decisions to walk away from all of those deeply held hopes for his life, So he pursues MGTOW no further.
Until the day a Youtube video may come up on a page, perhaps weeks, months or years later; which has a title that strikes a chord with him, so he listens, then he listens to another, and another. His research continues, he begins forming his own opinions about the messages he is hearing and about how he himself may possibly go his own way.
Until eventually, this man knows he can ignore it no longer, that he must act and change, and that he must take a position on this that will affect his entire life, and then he too becomes a man going his own way.
Some Men Are Instant MGTOW Believers
These men are the instant true believers. They hear the message, know it as a truth for themselves, and they are fully ready to embrace the ideology within their lives and thinking, and begin to live the MGHOW life right then and there. MGTOW is their truth also, just until this point in time they never had a name to put to their beliefs.
Some Men Cannot Give Up The Hope
For a man to go his own way is an admission by that man to himself that everything he always thought to be normal and right and good to aspire to want from life as a man, is no longer possible in the modern world. That all of it has been wrecked, the entire marriage, family, home, grandchildren model is now gone.
Men are deeply programmed to create, provide for, and to protect families. It is at the very core of their psyches, it is the place where most men gain everything of worth in this world from. And to entirely walk away from that, to give up on it forever, to have to accept that it just is not possible any longer in this modern age; is too bitter a pill for this man to swallow.
Though he knows the truth of MGTOW, he cannot accept it. He wants to knowingly and willingly go back into the Matrix, because the truth of what is outside the Matrix is just too difficult for him to live with. These men want to fool themselves, and that’s exactly what they do. They may even become the very men who actively fight against MGTOW, which in itself is an act of self justification of their own chosen self delusion of modern reality.
Cognitive dissonance is the term for this behavior. Which is like the cult members who find out the truth that they are in a cult, they know all the evidence to be true, and yet they still will not leave the cult, and will justify all types of reasons to themselves that the cult is the truth and that it is everyone else who is deceived.
These men are all still holding out hope for a NAWALT, and they refuse to accept what they actually know is a truth, and so the unicorn hunting begins, until one day he mans up and marries that girl while ignoring her entire past history.
White Knights, Manginas, Social Justice Warriors, Male Feminists, Blue Pillers, Simps
- The forever rescuers of womens innate inability to never do any wrong
- The Marios who are forever saving the princesses of the world from all those bad men
- The men who wear strap-on pregnancy bellies to feel the burden of oppressed women everywhere
- The “every woman is a perfect woman” and “a victim of the patriarchy and mens abuses” type of men
- The men who scream and cry in the rallies to *cough* “free the apple” *cough*
- The men who all have a special platonic woman friend for so many years, and who never progresses with her
Is there really any need to go on with even more descriptors?
We all know who these men are, and so do the women who sit atop their pedestals and despise the very men who are simping at their feet looking for crumbs as a reward for their self deprecation and subservience to every woman while despising their own masculinity.
These are the same men that women will always reject, or keep as a beta orbiter for decades until the last possible moment that she feels like she has no other possible option than to settle for him.
These men are their own worst enemies, and usually become enemies of MGTOW too.
