Prec1ous:Why must you be so blunt, lucid and succinct with the truth, why? |
[quote author=HolyTrinity post=87292492][/quote]I didn't give anything contradictory, only gave u the outline and contrary stereotypical nonsensical misconception people thing of mgtow. The world today has predominantly become a gynocentric world where laws are female biased. Take the western world into cognizance, divorce law, child custody favour the women, a women can cheat on you and decide still to work out of the Union claiming half of your property, you have stipulated time you could visit your children if there's any, you'd be forced to pay child's support and if you don't, you'll go to jail. It has raped many men of their hard earned money and they felt if there's a big possiblity if this is the eventuality of the whole thing, why can't go my way instead of delving into odds that's most likely isn't in your favour. Feminism on the other hand clamours for equal rights but not equal responsibility. If the divorce law stipulates that men have to part with half of their worth, why not women. The whole system is rigged and if I deem it fit not to be in my favour, I'd rather go my own way. How does my decision to go my way make me a social hermit? I have hobbies, I have friends, family members and acquaintances I relate with. And men didn't subjugate women in any way, each has a role to play in the society. Men and women are two different beings wired in a different way. |
As far as I'm concerned, this is all about the mgtow ideology. MGTOW, an acronym standing for “men going their own way” is in my honest opinion the largest (and coolest) wing of the “man-o-sphere”. One thing I've noticed is that MGTOW runs into a lot of opposition from feminist groups, “white knights”, and females alike. However, with all of those attacks they seem to have one thing in common: a lack of understanding of the MGTOW movement. So here are 10 things white-knights , feminists, and females do not understand about MGTOW. 1) MGTOW is more of a philosophy on how to live life instead of a movement. This is a very important one, a political movement is defined as a organized social group operating to achieve a certain goal. MGTOW does not operate in such a manner. At it's very essence it's a bunch of guys who've adopted a new way of living life. They don't seek to change the status quo, but instead opt out of whatever society expects them to do. 2) MGTOWS are not just bitter men who cant get a date. A lot of women think this is what MGTOW is all about. If this is you too, guess what? You're wrong. Some of the first MGTOWs were divorced men. Men stuck paying alimony to a cheating ex wife who divorced him. Men screwed over sideways in family courts for child custody. Then it spread to men in marriages who were downright miserable with the way their wives treated them. Then it spread to men in relationships that were fed up with the dating world and how they were expected to act, despite being taken advantage of by women. Some of these men have been in abusive relationships. Then finally is spread to the young single guys in their 20's. It's not that MGTOWS cant get a date, they just don't want to. They've taken a good logical look at dating, marriage, and they way divorce courts treat them. At that point they decided to say “screw this i'm out”. 3) MGTOWS are not social hermits. Females seem to think that a MGTOW is some guy living his mom's basement who refuses to leave and live life. In a Youtube video called ”Dear Men” by Alexanda Blue she mention that guys were isolating themselves from society. MGTOWS don't isolate themselves they just don’t conform to society. They have friends, they most definitely have hobbies, they have family, they have good jobs, and they have fun. Calling them hermits is seriously missing the mark. 4) MGTOW's are very content with their lifestyle. They have good jobs, a lot of them have their own business. They have time and luxury to pursue dreams and hobbies. Since a lot of MGTOWS don't have to support a family, a lot of their money turns into disposable income. A lot of MGTOWS will tell you themselves that they live very peaceful, orderly lives. Which brings me to my next point 5) Insulting or shaming MGTOW does jack squat. People who dislike MGTOW really can't seem to come to terms with this. All the time you the see them telling MGTOWS to “man up!” or say that they have “peter pan syndrome”. The reason why none of this works against a MGTOW is because you fail to see things the way the see it. To a MGTOW settling down means giving up all of your hobbies, your awesome life style, and pursuing your dreams, for a life of monotony. Even more so, “manning up” would mean entering in to a marriage where he could potentially lose at least half his assets (car, house, kids, etc.) in the event of a divorce. From a logical standpoint, trying to shame a MGTOW into settling down is pointless. 6)They're not all anti-feminist they just couldn't care less about women's rights, issues, etc. Now, don't get me wrong some of MGTOWS are anti-feminist. The rest of them could just care less. If MRA's and feminists were to have a debate, MGTOWS wouldn't even bother to show up much less get out of bed. If you're trying to rally a MGTOW to some female social cause, don't bother. 7) Alot of MGTOW's avoid women all together. Don't like being catcalled in the street? No problem, they wont catcall you. Hate being stared at the gym? Fine by them, they wont look. Don't liked being asked for your number in random places? Alrighty. You don't have to worry about a MGTOW doing any of these things. In fact a MGTOW won't even bother to look in your direction. A MGTOW will keep conversation with you to a minimum. What people forget that this is a double edge sword. Having a guy buy you drinks at a bar? Nope! Taking you out to a nice expensive dinner and picking up the tab? Nope! Taking you for a ride on his motorcycle or in his sports car? Guess again. Casual flirting? I think not. The majority of men, are single yet off-the-market. Especially in a society where a guy in one false rape accusation or sexual harassment case away from a jail sentience. MGTOW is growing.From 2009-2015 MGTOW went from being a obscure movement to the largest wing of the “man-o-sphere”. Today, there a numerous blogs, forums, and Youtube channels that are devoted to MGTOW philosophy. Do a simple google search for MGTOW and see for yourself. 9) If you want to stop this growth you have to change what causes men to go their own way. If MGTOW's growth is alarming to you then you're going to have to change what causes them to go MGTOW. Which means change the divorce courts, the attack on masculinity, the institution of marriage, social expectations on men, etc. Things such as shaming them, calling them “man-boys”, having white-knights attack them, and other methods will do nothing to stop this growth. The problem people have with this is that to a certain degree they are going to have to assign blame to themselves (* cough* straw feminists). They're are many honest reasons a man will go his own way, just ask one. 10) MGTOWS are not afraid of being alone. When I talked about MGTOW to a female friend, she asked “Aren't they afraid of being lonely ?” The answer to this question was no. To a MGTOW, being alone does not mean being lonely. He may not have a girlfriend or a wife but he still have friends, family, and his hobbies to keep him occupied. A MGTOW has no need for female companionship. > |

Orion01:That stone too big for palm kernel, na coconut sure pass |
Riele:Please, everyone should do well to ignore this girl, she knows if she writes something stupid and controversial, she'll get a lot of mentions and likes and that's exactly what she thrives on, starve her of it and see her go into the state of oblivion. Yours truly, A concerned member |
Who's he competing with? |
He said, “Most of the governors did not pay pensioners while in office and their successors do not deem it fit to pay when they get there.NIGERIA is a failed state and there's nothing that can be done about it |
CAPSLOCKED:Astaghfirullah. May Allah SWT forgive you brother |
lepasharon:For the sake of avoiding argument, I've lost count the number of times I said you're right. |
CAPSLOCKED:LOL |
Has he seen all porns that he'll have time for Corona virus? I guess that's what piques his interest. |
lepasharon:I learnt a lot in the religious section here which opened my eyes to so many things and I explored other options as well. The kind of personality I display here is also my personality in real life. I don't like to argue back and forth and I also learnt that giving advice to people is useless. Your advice only works if it leans towards what they already have in mind. Only chip in once in a while but I'm an ardent reader. |
End sars |
Reminds me of this movie, sickens me to the stomach when I hear the sentence "he's so lucky to have her" Bleep that shit

lepasharon:Created this in 2014 right after the tsunami that happened then... Was more like an observer then though I have an account dated back to 2010. I read most comments and don't really participate then. |
kunmiiii:One of my best songs ever. Dude probably doesn't understand the lyrics. |
[quote author= post=86939524]This remind us of Bruno Mars – Grenade There was this line he sang : 'Should’ve known you was trouble From the first kiss Had your eyes wide open Why were they open'? The only way he could know her eyes were open would be if he had his own eyes open. [/quote]he was recording the whole make out session.lol |
lepasharon:. ooh 1sharon?I'm quite familiar with this moniker cuz you're the first female atheist I knew on nairaland some years back tho. Been a while I saw your comment with this one, prompted me to ask. |
lepasharon:Been a while I saw u comment withe this moniker, was it banned? |

Before I read this epistle, I was 26, now I'm 32. |
henryobinna:You should have left her to wallow in her sheer ignorance. She uses verbose words to sound intelligent but she just plainly dumb and stupid. |
LilMissFavvy:Read what you wrote slowly, did u see any sense in it? I used to wonder how people survive without sense, it isn't farfetched. |
Since I heard this news, I keep on wondering why this should be a debate at first. Some repentant boko boys were recruited into the Nigerian army, the havoc they've wrecked hasn't been addressed yet and yet some dingbats and half-witted senators are planning to create another welfare package for their brothers. It's better this country separates, we can live with these hausas because they have no plan, they give birth to kids in large numbers, no family planning, education is abomination for them, tell them about family planning, they'll tell I it's haram. Bunch of them roam the streets and when they've got nothing doing, they subsequently are attracted by the stipends boko haram give them. It's obvious no tribe that's in collaboration with the northerners can and could never progress. They've dragged us down for a very long time and if it continues, we're doomed. |
Kingrexyl:You got it all wrong, the only way to deal with lil bitvt like her is to starve her of attention. The mentions and the likes she's getting on nairaland is what's making her feel like she's the next best thing after oxygen. From what I could observe from her, she a dumb kid with an absentee father figure venting her frustration and rejection on guys on nairaland. It will end in tears |
prekumohtim:Tu pac was a wise man, he could have been wiser if he had a father figure in his life while growing up and he'll still be alive by now. The importance of a strong father figure in the life of a child is very important and paramount. He's the greatest rapper that's ever liveth. |
Reminds me of a girl I categorically told I'm not down for that kneeling down to propose shit, she thought I was joking, bitvh said she can't marry someone like me, I was like who told u I want to marry u before... It's all bullshit jhor |
This is the girlfriend I hope to have. I haven't had any girlfriend in years now and I've never been happier. @op, if having a gf is a driving factor and it's what motivates u, it's very pathetic and totally unreasonable. What should be your driving factor is how to enjoy the good things life has to offer, being there for those that helped you to where you are and striving for happiness. If you think you find that in a girlfriend, your case is quite beyond redemption.

Kennedyiheme02:silky is quite a subtle word to use.. she's just being silly, dumb and ignorant. That's the only shaming tactic they got when it seems their banters have no effect on u, broke |
