So what is MGTOW? (also transmog)

General Discussion
I have been watching some videos on youtube about a new movement called MGTOW and was wondering if anyone else had information about what it is, what it means etc to share.

And to keep a part of this thread wow-related, rate the transmog of the character above you from 1-10.

M.G.T.O.W – Men Going Their Own Way – is a statement of self-ownership, where the modern man preserves and protects his own sovereignty above all else.


People who come up with this crap need to get lives.

I was looking for someone that is in or knows about it.

I can google the definition, but thats like googling the definition of Feminism and trying to get an accurate description of the movement from that. It just doesnt work. :<

Well if you take what feminists say they are a sexist hate group of MRAs

If you take what they say they are a MRA that is fighting for men's rights

If you take what i say both sides are a waste of time and need to get a life.
Sound like the club I started as a teenager - the Society for the Protection of Equal Rights for Men.

Yes, and this is why I was looking for someone that could tell me what the general ideology of the people in the movement is.

Instead of reading some dry definition or post, I can try to communicate and understand.

I know. Now I'm going to remove the hint :)
Is this an off-shoot of the He-man Woman Haters Club?

From what I can tell MGTOW is ambiguous about women.

They simply dont care either way.

Still looking for an 'active' MGTOW to talk to. ^-^
I'm still a proud member of "No Ma'am" founded by Al Bundy.

Al Bundy.

:O

I miss that show.
Going by the scroll at the bottom of their website I'd say it's a bunch of d-bags looking for validation and approval.

Al Bundy is my hero and a great inspirational character .......
It's a hate group trying to keep women in the kitchen, just like the MRA.

Again, from what I can tell they seem largely indifferent to women overall. Would you mind sharing what gave you that impression of the group?
it's about bettering yourself as a man in terms of career/personal development without wasting time having committed relationships with women because of drama/getting wrecked in divorce/child custody payments etc. etc.

for some reason it makes some people very angry that some men are choosing that single lifestyle, hence the already absurd labeling as a "hate group"

"Men-bers"

I hate them for the wordplay alone.
