Consider the plight of the poor, horny Man Going His Own Way. He may have convinced himself that women are icky monsters out to highjack his sperm and steal his money. He may have convinced himself we live in a femi-fascist gynocracy out to destroy men and civilization generally. Yet his disobedient penis can’t stop thinking about sex with these evil, filthy women.
And so he turns to his fellow MGTOWers to ask for help: what can I do, my brethren, to stop popping so many boners? Ed1974, a newbie on MGTOWforums.com, puts it this way in a plaintive recent post:
[M]ore than almost anything I want to be woman-free and contentment to live a woman-free life. For more or less all of my adult life I’ve played in to society’s demands that I have to have a woman, and preferably a pretty woman, in my life. I’ve done a lot of Internet dating and every friggin time I get involved with a woman I regret it. Either I just want to get some ass and the woman wants a lot more than that and makes a mess out of my life when I leave, or I end up spending way more money than I ever wanted to spend just to have her grace my life with her presence, or something else that fucks up my life. The bottom line is I sincerely want to live a life without the desire to have a woman in my life.
So Ed is taking steps to quell his desire:
1. I downloaded a firewall blocking all dating sites.
2. I’m going to read as many books on misandry that I can.
3. I’m going to take myself out of situations where I can get in trouble, such as bars.
4. I’m going to fill free time that I would normally spend out with some woman with something productive.
I also want to remember the bad times where I’ve had women who I’ve tried to get out of my life end up stalking me for months on end. And to be perfectly honest, I want to remember the time I got the clap from some skank. I also want to remember that I should be thankful that I’m not a baby daddy and I’ve never had any false rape charges against me.
Alas, but poor pretty Eddie is afraid that this won’t be enough, and begs the assembled MGTOWers for “other steps I should take.”
Site admin Nacho Vidal suggests he go another way entirely:
My advice would be to scrap the ‘steps’ you’ve taken and take your wanking up a notch! Also, have you looked into hiring a whore or two once a month?
Others jump in to endorse the masturbation-and-prostitute strategy, and encourage him to cultivate his hatred of women by reading from the ample selection of stories on the site about evil, depraved, disgusting women. As fairi5fair puts it:
I go to college and still get the biochemical reactions that play into the mate-spawn-die script when I see a 20 year old with a candy apple ass and perky tits, but my growing understanding of women in general helps to make it less urgent and more negligible everyday.
A few others have more novel advice. Our friend womanhater suggests a trip to the mall:
Sit in the food court, and spend a good three hours there. Leisurely sip on some coffee, and simply watch.
See all the soulless men being dragged around by cupcake holding her bags. You’ll see the total absence of hope in the eyes of men in this trap. You’ll see his brain calculating the immense debt being run up, and yet he knows he’s fucked.
Pay attention to the stupid whores in training aged 15 or so, and simply listen the absolute shit running out of their mouth. Watch their behavior and internalize that every twat you see aged 25 was doing the exact same shit a decade ago.
Every time I start to feel my ghosting resolve start to slip, I go to the mall for a few hours. Clears my fucking head every time.
NewWorldMan suggests a sort of mind-over-boner strategy:
Sounds like BS, I know, but telling myself (actually saying the sentence in my head at the moment of attraction): “I control my dick, my dick doesn’t control me — actually works for me.
Frederick326 suggests an anatomy lesson:
Read up on vaginas. They’re fucking disgusting.
And fairi5fair also links to the (somewhat NSFW) video below. I’m not sure what exactly it’s supposed to accomplish other than to remind us that Japan leads the world in baffling entertainment product:
In actuality, I’m dressed quite shabbily at the moment. In my pajamas, which are not terribly dapper.
However, I do own several waistcoats, and in terms of hats, I have a black bowler, a black fedora, a grey fedora, a black trilby, a black homburg, a greenish Tyrolean and several flat caps. I like hats.
Hey! Now I’m able to find out where NWO gets his news, because that specific line was only quoted a couple places! It originated with the Manhattan local news site DNAinfo, but there’s no reason NWO would read that. However, it was just picked up by MensActivism.org.
In other words, I just caught NWO accepting new information from someone! WHOOO!
But I do think this was terrible if it happened, especially since it could screw up a court case where the guy really was at fault. (There are cases out there of women unambiguously assaulting men who don’t retaliate, you know. Why do you guys always glom onto the ones where the man really was in the wrong?) We’ve been through this before, but leaving the scene of an assault and returning with a weapon is not “self-defense.” If you can leave, self-defense is to stay the hell left.
Also, “communism” means a classless society with common ownership of the means of production. It doesn’t just mean “BAD BADNESS.” FYI.
I don’t know why you’re so worried, then, NWO. That is the shoddiest repressing of evidence ever. If that’s the best that the Evil Conspiracy can do, then they really aren’t going to get far.
Quick, hide the fact that the standard for protective orders is preponderance of the evidence from NWO…it would break his wittle heart.
Now that the milkslave is gone (presumably), a note about the OP.
The problem:
The proposed solution:
MRAs are aware that (1) prostitution is illegal in the U.S. and (2) prostitutes can be raped, right? (They could even, theoretically, falsely accuse someone of rape.) I imagine they’re just counting on prostitutes being less credible victims?
But seriously, who’d rather willingly break the law than potentially be falsely accused of breaking the law? The paranoia involved here is fascinating.
Are you willing to admit, ever, that you had the word wrong and you will use it differently in the future?
Guys, seriously? Why do you bother? Genuine question. I mean, it’s one thing to poke the trolls and I love the hat chatter, but I do. not. get. why you would waste a keystroke trying to prove to a fuckstain like NWO that you’re good people. It’s not gonna happen, ever. He’s not gonna admit he’s wrong, ever. You can put his own bullshit in 40-point Helvetica type right in front of his eyes and he’ll lie and claim he never said it, or he’ll change the subject, or spew some nonsense so you start arguing about that instead.
I’m all for those folks who can reach across the aisle and engage in dialogue. That’s what sites like NSWATM are for.
@Holly Pervocracy
Actually it was from DNAinfo.com.
Here’s something you’ll probably enjoy. Read the comments. It appears just about everyone, white, black, men and women not influenced by an ideology of hate totally disagrees with you.
BTW, thanks for the heads up on mensactivism. I’ll be sure to sign the petition to have this completely innocent men exonerated for being well within his right to defned himself against those violent women. Here’s a link so you can help free a man from a terrible injustice.

Unless of course you don’t believe a man has the right to defend himself after being chased down by violent criminals?
Oops! Here’s the site where you can read the comments.

@Bee, it is legal in a very small part of Nevada, though I doubt that’s what the MGOTWs are thinking of. And it’s hilarious, in a sad and pitiful way, how angry those same guys are about “whores”. You’d think, wouldn’t you, that they’d be all about prostitution, since you’re just paying a woman directly and getting exactly what you want from her (none of those ‘buying her dinner and listening to her yammering’ nonsense, nosir!) and she goes away later without touching any of your money or your sperms. Nope, they’re furious that they have to pay for it.
However, I do own several waistcoats, and in terms of hats, I have a black bowler, a black fedora, a grey fedora, a black trilby, a black homburg, a greenish Tyrolean and several flat caps. I like hats.
These conversations make me sad. I had a very nice wide-brimmed black fedora that went missing about two months ago. No idea what happened to it, and I can’t afford to replace it. And it’s not like I have any other nice hats either. That was it. 🙁
But seriously, who’d rather willingly break the law than potentially be falsely accused of breaking the law?
Brandon.
No thrift stores where you “live” (presumably Transylvania)?
I got about half of mine at thrift stores.
So you just habitually read Manhattan local news even though you live in the Southwest? …Okay then. I’m not sure why you’re trying to wiggle out of the shame of admitting you get your news from sources. That’s what people are supposed to do.
Oh my gosh, you guys, NWO is going to sign an Internet petition. (Presumably with the name “NWOslave,” for extra officialness.)
I really would worry about our judicial process if they took those into account.
But I really wonder why MRAs take up cases like this–where a woman jumped over the counter so he broke her skull–when there are cases out there of men being really, unambiguously abused by women. I don’t think it’s accidental. I think it’s their way of sending the message that they want men to get away with hurting women, that they don’t intend to stop at “fair.”
There’s a few thrift stores around, but I’ve had lousy luck with them, hat-wise. It can be hard to find hats that fit me.
Waitaminute… that site doesn’t even have a petition on it!
Guess you missed your chance to be an activist today, NWO. (Or to, like, read the things you so vigorously support.) Darn.
Also written in capital letters. That’s what makes it binding.
I only have one hat. I gave all my hats to a friend who needed them more a while ago.
I do, however, have a BLACK VELVET BLAZER that is the most awesome thing of all the awesome things.
I also have a furry winter hat with earflaps and fuzzy bear ears which is the best thing ever because when I wear it I am a furry floofy winter bear.
I think my girlfriend has that exact hat. FYMYNYST HIVEMIND!
…Now, see, NWO, this is what normal humans do. Not only do we care about freedom and justice and so on, but we also care about hats with fuzzy bear ears on, because fuzzy bear ears are cool. Now, this is not a requirement that you care about fuzzy bear ears. Many people do not like hats with fuzzy bear ears. But you might have something that makes you simply happy, the same way that Holly’s fuzzy bear ear hat makes her simply happy, and that’s a good thing! We would like to listen to you share your happiness with us.
I should probably mention that I do have one or two knit winter hats, one of which is pointy stocking cap type thing that I made myself. (I took inspiration from The Legend of Zelda.)
I’m just lacking in nice brimmed hats that keep the sun off my head while looking awesome. I sunburn easily. (All who wish to do so are welcome to take that one and run with it.)
Well, at least you don’t have Graf Orlock’s “exploding in a puff of smoke” problem.
Well, at least you don’t have Graf Orlock’s “exploding in a puff of smoke” problem.
It’s a comfort, to be sure.
This is a photo of when my boyfriend fell asleep at a conference so I made him a hat out of books and very careful balance.

Putting things on heads makes me happy. 🙂
Good old NWOslave is all about equality before the law, unless it’s when a man is using excessive force against a woman. Then all bets are off.
…just don’t even get him started about how the Battered Wife
Lawdefense is carte blanche for women to use violence against men!
