I get that this is a "safe" forum for incels to vent (and I'm very grateful for this), but I read a TON of threads about media other incels consume that drives them crazy. Or I read incels on the one hand acknowledge their social caste (appreciating blackpills) while on the other hand STILL GIVING MORE AND MORE AND MORE POWER to the very people who either despise them or never even see them. Why isn't MGTOW a more constructive response to what we're experiencing?

I don't get that. Or maybe I don't understand why it matters. Both communities were rejected, but one is still sniffing around the periphery of those who cast it out. Why isn't it better to turn your back on those who've abandoned you instead of continuing to pay them any attention?

Cope.
How are they turning their back on women when they won't stop talking about women either?
 
MGTOW is ghey
 
I don't see why it matters either. Both "ideologies" are about not being with women. At least have some pride in yourself while doing it.
 
@chadalwayswins From my reading of MGTOW, they acknowledge misandry and hypocrisy as catalysts for giving up on trying (and failing) to win the attention of women. What I read in a lot of incel comments (not tryng at all to be cruel) is a contradictory disdain for many women's dismissive attitudes towards men and many incels' self-abasement through the constant hunt for these same women's physical succor. I mean, come on. How is it not more psychologically harmful to keep playing a game that rewards your efforts with thousands of punitive lashes over and over and over again? I'm not trying to convert or shame anyone--but I agree with @FrothySolutions "At least have some pride in yourself while doing it." So both our communities know what the game is. Now what?
 
Because I still want a girlfriend.
 
MGTOW is delusional. It's almost they think ideas of 80s style masculinity would apply to ethnic manlets. The entire notion of 80s style masculinity rests on whether you are white or black anyway. The idea of the wall is a fucking joke. I would gladly betabuxx any old chick that is a looksmatch.

I think you're referring to some members of the MGTOW community. They don't appear to me any more delusional as a whole than we are with some of our in-group divisiveness. The fundamental MGTOW ideology is leave people who don't want to have anything to do with you alone. I think that's a healthier approach than following around the in-crowd, listening to what they're saying, watching their exploits with envy and coping by denigrating them in a community they don't care about other than to eradicate.

I think @Emergency Manual comes closest to the truth for many of us. Despite our (understandably) loathing how we're treated, many of us still hope to win a girlfriend. I'm sure many mainstream psychologists would judge that the healthier behavior--never giving up hope. I think there's a good reason the Ancient Greeks counted hope among the cosmos' great curses. Anyway, I didn't mean to ruffle any feathers. Carry on, all.
 
I think this community is superior. MGTOW think they’re cool guys just because they stopped dating/chasing women after the women used them or the women never showed interest in the 1st place. Plenty of incels in denial and former cucks coping too hard thinking they’re winning and women actually care their low value ass checked out
 
Because many of us don't actually want to separate from foids. Many want gfs out of a psychological need for love and intimacy, both of which are essential human needs. Personally, I don't see why there should be any beef between MGTOWs and us. We both want the same things in a broad sense and we both agree women are garbage. However, very few of us actually genuinely hate women unfortunately.

I've always thought of MGTOWs as us if we were born a decade or two earlier. We would've ended up betabuxxing some whore foid who would've taken us to the cleaners. We owe a lot of both our terminology and outlook on foids/society to them. I personally made the decision to never get married at 18 thanks to MGTOW forums and writers telling young men about the horrors of marriage in the modern era.
 
Tbh I sort of went 'mgtow' in the beginning when I was starting to find out I was at an age where most people ar having a romantic/sexual relationship or at least had once b4.

After some time I felt that adopting the mgtow mentality as an khhv was outright denying my desires and instead to pretend I was above it.

Because I still want a girlfriend.
 
MGTOWs don't exist. They've been sent their own way. That being said, I'm more MGTOW than any "MGTOW" out there because I've gone my own way for real. I was initially sent my own way of course, but I accept that I was sent my own way and I'm not really mad about it. At this point in my life I'm just enjoying my copes and doing my own thing.
 
I think that in the end that's what we need to do. But getting rid of your natural needs and desires is hard, almost impossible.

This.
MGTOW just implies MUCH more than just "going your own way".
MGTOW are mostly middle-aged American cuckservatives (MGTOW comes with the full Republican/libertarian/pro-US/pro-capitalist/anti-environment, usually Christian etc.) who believe that they are going their own way despite being sent their own way.
I don't want to have anything to do with these assholes.

are you a wagie? might be your chance to ascend when your looksmatch realises she will never get a chad to commit

tough. cougars are chasing baby chads at da club. I need to earn at least 250K per year to be taken seriously as a betabuxx option.

Why dude? You'll just get brutally divorce raped

maybe I was being hyperbolic. I think I am smart enough, or rather, women are just openly venal enough to showcase that possibility, and obviously I would avoid that, in the same way I would avoid sticking my dick in AIDS pussy.
 
MGTOW are copers, all they talk about is women

If hte would just go their own way literally nobody would care, if anything women would be ecstatic that those subhumans are leaving them alone

Because it's cope, it's a way to pretend romance doesn't matter. It's way better to make your needs clear and make society see how wrong they are than suck it up and fade into oblivion.

MGTOW act like they're happy with their situation and they expect you to be. We're not happy with being sent our own way and don't pretend like we are. People here want women.

MGTOw is cope, but I see them as incel allies (not all of them)and a socially accepted counterforce against feminism
 
MGTOW is IT-level cope for MSTOW
 
You can be an incel and go MGTOW, there is a growing number of blackpilled MGTOWs. A lot of MGTOW shit is just coping boomercels or divorce rape victims who cannot mentally handle the existential, nihilistic despair of the blackpill nor do they want to be associated with social reforms blackpilled incels seek or the radical but necessary opposition to society some blackpilled incels are equated with. If I woke up tomorrow as a chad, I'd just be a blackpilled MGTOW. I hate femoids too much to want to have anything to do with them.
 
we have some similarities, but they also have some prejudice against us
 
Because I'm willing to give women a chance if they give me a chance. MGTOW philosophy is that you shouldn't try to pursue meaningful relationships with women because you might get divorce-raped. That's not compatible with inceldom. If you have the opportunity to ascend but you turn it down because you read on the internet about how some normie got fucked over by family court, then you're volcel.
 
Just like foidism, mgtow's definition and people who unite (ironically) under that name are completely different things.
Doesnt escape me that same thing can be said for incels as well.
At least this forum is truthful about being a losers club instead of deluding themselves that they are alphas who go their own way. :feelskek:
 
I believe MGTOW is a community of mostly average looking men of average height (Mogs me) who have had experience with women. They usually had one or more relationships which ended with the woman cheating, which is why the men now hate all women. Based.
 
eh, i look at the mgtow sub every now and again a lot of it seems like coping, also half of the men on their have had wives/ gfs in the past so i cant really relate to them as much as my truecel brothers here
 
MGTOWs are fine but I’m more of an incel

I think you're missing the point. A great deal of life is "cope." I also respectfully disagree it's better to beg than to abandon those denying you. Society doesn't give one-billionth of a f*k about our needs. The only thing they care about where we're concerned is that we die--torturously preferably. We all "fade into oblivion." While it's everyone's choice to decide how (with limits), obsessing over what others refuse to give you, at least to me, seems massively wasteful and even masochistic.

To each his own.

High iq. I want a teenage virgin wife or to just be able to pump and dump whores. Fuck that mgtow monk fag shit cope. If they're still paying taxes to support the cucked system and its degeneracy then they're not going their own way.

All respectable.
 
I will have no problem becoming MGTOW once I quit my job, move to an isolated area of the country, and hopefully never have to be exposed to another woman again. It's impossible for me to be MGTOW in my current environment though. It's impossible for me to be content in this environment so I'll remain a bitter, angry incel until I get the fuck out of this nightmarish situation.

I agree with your sentiment. It's a lot easier to turn your back on the community that's abandoned you if you don't HAVE to be around them every day. This is the major reason homesteading on a large patch of property in rural America has been my fantasy for so long...

The only good that has come out of 15 years of wageslaving HELL is that I can finally afford to live comfortably in a more remote part of the country. Once I move, I hope to never spend another day in the dreaded northeastern U.S. for as long as I live.

I self-identify as MSTOW. I realize going my own way wasn't really a choice, but instead of crying about it, I'm mastering the art of cope. It makes sense to assume a lot of other incels just like this.

Godspeed, brutha. Hope I'm not far behind.

If this forum had "gold" analogous to Reddit's, I'd award you some. This is the most rational course to me, too.
