selfdissolving I would dispute the use of that word "majority." I know a few women like that, and I know some areas of society like that, but nowhere near the majority. Most of the women I know are good people.

That's my main beef with MGTOW. It broad-brushes women as gold diggers who are out to wreck guys for fun and profit. Sure there are a few, but the majority of women?

Then again... maybe it's because I'm in the South. If you can honestly say "the majority of woman are entitled, self centered, and so accustomed to being placed on a pedestal by society that they demand it now" then maybe you should move down here. Wherever you are living sure don't sound too healthy.
I'm a southern big-city boy myself. I believe that women should be treated with respect too. Maybe this is just a southern thing. Maybe the majority of men that live up north are MYTOW men. Of course, that would be painting the northern men with a broad brush.

Yes i have heard of MGTOW..

It is a way of living that some men have adopted where they forgo marriage and remain single..

MGTOW means Men Going Their Own Way..

The way of life came as a response to the changes in family Law that has happened in most western countries in regard to marriage Law over the past couple of generations.. MGTOW men believe it is too easy for woman to go for divorce and also that the courts favor woman excessively in divorce settlements.. They believe it is too easy for woman to take their hard earned wealth and leave them destitute but even worse they believe that woman can if they wish to make an accusation that her husband is abusing to her and her Children, leading to the dad being barred from contact with His kids.. The prospect of this level of emotional pain and financial devastation makes marriage in the modern western society a far to risky proposition.. So MGTOW men decide to opt out of the marriage and family path in life.. They remain single and seek to fulfill their lives in other areas rather then through being a husband and a dad..
It's funny there's not WGTOW group aswell then judging by what I have been through 😂.... I can only thank the Lord that it hasn't made me all bitter and twisted (I hope😁)... as there are actually some decent Christian men and women still on this earth🙂

I would also like to state the fathers have tremendous impact on daughters ... and from what I see it is not good.
It is a multi-faceted problem.[/QUOTE]

This...
and by the way, the husband is not responsible for the way his wife acts. she is.
means, in essence, "A person is not responsible for the actions of others."

While this...
women have brought MGTOW on themselves
means, in essence, "A person is responsible for the actions of others."

The way you phrased it, it's a double standard that absolves men of any responsibility.

I agree there are indeed some wonderful Christian woman and Christian men on this earth.. But they are rare as hens teeth.. Some people are indeed blessed by God to end up with one.. :)

All people can be sly, deceitful, and manipulative. That's part of being a human sinner. You MGTOWs act as if you're perfect. No man is perfect. Yes, women can be nasty, but so can men.
I believe the person you are addressing here is female.

I was thinking about this thread, and this verse came to mind:

“Let the words of my mouth and the meditation of my heart Be acceptable in Your sight, O LORD, my strength and my Redeemer.” ‭‭Psalms‬ ‭19:14‬ ‭NKJV‬‬

The problem is, that only works for Christians, or members of another religion that believes humans were created for a reason. A lot of people don't believe we were created for any reason at all.

Men can have varying degrees of femininity and vise versa but that may depend on what you count as feminine or just general human qualities. When it gets the point of forgetting your Male or female and where you made that way is where the confusion starts. I tend to be more comfortable with my emotions than most men and its easier to open up to people I also find it easier to talk to females, however I'm 100% Male and darn proud of it :)
