Interesting.

I was scanning to find they are staying off sex and I can see that.

So I can take them serious.

That said, 70k men pulling out of society might seem small, constant addition over the years would spell doom for the women in that society interested in heterosexual marriages.

Such women would also have to lower their standards else a lot of them would be single or settle for men already in relationships.

This would also herald the official state of babymamaism. Now, we still have baby mamas of A marrying B. Then it would be baby mamas staying as baby mamas.

It is really going to be a bleak situation and I believe, another movement especially for the women (anti-feminism? Red pill girls? Religious movement?) would act as a balance so that more men would be pulled back into the society.

A society where men decide to pull out would fail and breed unnatural mating laws. Also think of lower birth rates, poor role models for the male child, gender selection favoring the male child at conception, rise of homosexuality, transgender etc.

It is a grim picture.

Hopefully, both genders would go back to the drawing board before it fails at the center.

And this is peculiar to the West for now. Nigerians have a different problem.

I like you contribution, you are not baised.
And you have earned a follower.
It is true if things continue like this then there is problem.
I think it will get to a point were both genders will be called to the table to renegotiate the terms and conditions.
Just like disgruntled groups against government like Niger delta militant, IPOB etc.
When it gets to a stage the disgruntled parties will be called for renegotiation.
Just like employee/employer situation during salary increment brouhaha.
I may be wrong though

She was taking ZERO prisoners. Frankly, the loudest MGTOWS are missing the point entirely because they spend all their time talking about women and MGTOW.

What would Nairaland be if not a shade-throwing stadium?

Baby124, feminism and mgtow are two sides of the same golden coin and in my opinion,anyone who is a part of one but despises those who are part of the other simply does not understand the concept of cause & effect. Just like feminism has hardliners,mgtow also has hardliners. As a feminist yourself, there are certain feminist ideologies you certainly consider extreme, i guess that is how there are men who are not fully mgtow and will not end up foregoing pucci in the long run.
And this is what brings me to my point, becoming part of a movement and not encompassing the full substance of it is to me a farce. I hate labels same way i hate peanut butter. Africa does not understand either of these two concepts in its entirety because the dynamics are different. I had spent most of my life in western countries before experiencing my mother land Africa and i can see that social movements can never be replicated exact in societies with different cultural dynamics, it just doesn't happen.

Africans can not on one hand hate feminism and love mgtow, same way Africans can not hate mgtow and love feminism.
Let love lead.

I wonder why they are getting married


No simple synergy.

She quit her job and expects the guy to pick up the slack because of the wedding plans.

1. Did she discuss with him?
2. Did he express his disagreement and make it clear he would not pick the slack?
3. If they do not have so much, is it not wise to reduce the spend of the wedding?
4. The wife says her dream wedding... Has she found out the guy's dream wedding?
5. What would their lives be like after marriage financially?

Too many questions.

Hello Buka, you are talking this way bcus you are a woman.
Alot of modern women are not considerate and not intune with realities, am sorry for saying this.
Before, marriage was encouraging and cheaper for 2 people to stay together because our mothers were considerate but now it is cheaper to stay alone than be with the modern woman.
E.g
My wife grandmother died last week and d burial scheduled for 1st week next month (less than a month to prepare for an emergency that was not factored into the family plan before now)
They will use 2 clothes, 1 for wake-keep and other for burial totalling 40k for one person and 80k for my wife and i.
Told her we dnt have such money dat i can only give 40k, maybe she should sew why i use what i have bcus we will still gv her mum support money, buy souvenir to share and other miscellaneous.
It as been hell and quarrel for the past 2/3 days about how we are not going to meet up with other family members,
How some are giving there parents millions from canada blah blah blah
That am used to low quality and inferior things and in there family they use standard.
Buka, alot is happening in modern day families and believe me, even though alot of women will come out and tell you how they will manage wt a guy and understand situation, IT IS A BIG LIE BCUS THEY DON'T

Exactly the same way Nigerian fools women adopted feminism to thier own detriment. Now y'all have to bear the responsibilities of being a man in addition to the natural burden of being a woman. You now bear children, raise kids, maintain a home and still have to go out to work in slave corporate offices. Congratulations!

Yes, men will continue going their own way and proudly too wink

Hahaha
So Nigerian women adopted feminism so idiotic criminal gender decided to be copy cats and adopt western ideologies even when they live in a country that places them above women?

Thank god you are determined to go your own way, be fast about it. Get lost, don't let the door hit you on your way out.

Women can have peace of mind and deal with less crime and corruption if majority of men go their fvcking way.

FALSE EQUIVALENCE.

I am going to assume you meant to say MGTOW is a response to the feminist movement. What you are NOT going to do is compare a movement that seeks to fight for women to gain access to opportunities and rights that men already have so we can have a gender equal society, to an alt-right movement that seeks for men to separate themselves from a society that they deem harmful/non beneficiary to men. You compare feminist women that came before you that fought for all the rights that you now enjoy to incels. Do not conflate misandry with feminism, even the radical of feminists (feminists that believe that society should do away with patriarchy, they challenge existing social norms, objectification of women etc) cannot be compared with the mildest of a MGTOW. Do you know what MGTOW hardliners do? They shoot people. Please can you post for the class what these extreme feminist ideologies are?

lol talking about "I spent most of my life in Western countries" Feminism started in Nigeria before your grandparents were born and they made voting rights possible for women, and made it possible for women to run for office. There are some men that still believe women think and behave like children so they shouldn't vote. You can be anti-feminist if you want, no one cares, brave women will continue to fight for opportunities that you will undoubtedly enjoy. I just couldn't ignore your false balance. You have the nerve to compare feminism with a movement that came out of online white supremacy groups. A bunch of social rejects that live on the fringes of society. I don't blame you, it's times like this I wish time travel was possible, so I can throw you back to the 20th century.

Let us not do this,i don't want to do this. Just understand that extremists and hardliners exist among movements.
From what i see in the starting post,there are levels to this mgtow. Not everyone is going to go up the levels same way not every feminist believes men are not needed for sex or procreation anymore.

Are there some women that believe men should be done away with? YES! Are they feminists? NO! There is a dictionary word for them and it's called misandry. You do not get to be disingenuous, invent and ascribe ideologies to a movement to prove a point.

Let’s take a brief look on Isaac Newton shall we?:


Shall we look at why he was peeved towards his mother again and probably why he doesn’t like women?:



Isaac Newton did not like women, maybe because Isaac Newton was Gay?:


We know your type who will rather not touch SMELLY PUSSY wink. Enjoy the sweet dicks grin cheesy. You people just follow anything and anyone blindly. Tpia must be a psychologist because she profiled you people quite well. LMAO
Trying too hard to prove what doesn't exist!
Newton was never lonely, at least not all his life since he used most of his time studying and researching.
Agreed that his mother's action of leaving him behind to marry another man might have contributed to his decision to stay away from women. His mother's action buttressed all what we have been saying about women! Very selfish beings! She already had a son, selfishness wouldn't allow her to stay at a place and take care of his son.

Hey! Your speculation that Newton was gay remains a speculation and has no proof whatsoever. Those who held such view were obviously ladies like yourself and perhaps pussywiped men who never thought it possible that a man could decide to stay celibate and live his life without being married to any woman.

FYI, I'm NOT gay but just an analytical thinker who has thought severally about marriage and came to the realization that it is a grand scam against the menfolk.

But, what about the husband who refused for a single mother to bring in her son. We know how life was for single parents then. He is not selfish and wicked At least the mother was able to use the wealthy man’s money to educate her son, which is why you have Newton’s Genius today.

You say he was not lonely? So you know better than all the sources cited in his era from your Nigerian enclave? Lmao!

A man who lived in the same room with another man for 20yrs and exchanged such letters with a younger gay man? Keep deceiving yourself. Lmao. His letters are public, you can request access to clear all doubt. Newton was a gay man who was a genius. He lived a lonely, depressed and sad life because he was repressed just like you!

Yes you are a gay man. Only closeted gay men are repulsed by pussy and talk about women this way. You are just not out of the closet yet wink.

Ladies who have never organized or participated in equality marches or given speeches suddenly call me anti-feminist.cheesy

I can not deal with you guys.
Until you learn the difference between social issues and cultural issues and how what you have in Africa is a cultural problem which a social western invention like feminism will never cure,you will not make progress in eliminating gender inequality. This is something some of us actively work on in our little way.
Same goes for the mgtow boys supporting a misplaced ideological position.
