The fact that more and more men are avoiding marriage has both feminists and traditionalist women all in a tizzy – oh, those mean ol’ men! But what neither seem to care about is the shocking truth that men’s feelings matter, too, and that marriage no longer offers men a positive self-image. AVfM’s MGTOW week coverage continues with this transcript of the classic Karen Straughan video.
Why are men going their own way? Well, according to Andy Man it’s because there is isn’t any respect given to the role of husband and father anymore, they’re simply bumbling fools and imbeciles and they certainly don’t have the same legal rights as mothers. Not to mention how male sexuality is constantly being presented as predatory by various feminist campaigns. Andy has something to say to women about the implications of all this.
MGTOWN. Picture tumbleweeds rolling down a dusty road, through a town of four hundred and twenty-one hard and lonesome–but not lonely–men and women. Picture three outlaws. Bandits. Ner’do’wells, eager to drum up some quick cash. Feminists, eager for a rape hysteria cash cow. They see some likely prospects but these critters might be a bit too ornery to rustle, a bit different then the placid cattle they’re used to.

A “Jaguar” is supposed to be an older woman who is independent, stands on her own, and expects nothing from men except a good time and maybe an equal partnership. Do you think you find many of those for real at places like Jezebel, or just self-entitled bitches who pretend to be like that?[Illustration by Europa Phoenix]
Scholar and Man Going His Own Way Peter Wright has a look at people’s ideas about love and marriage throughout history, and concludes that much of what we today call “romance” is a historical aberration starting in the middle ages with the concept of courtly love and the image of white knights on bended knee, begging for a token from their Lady.
August Løvenskiolds throws a question into the MGTOW ring. If a savvy, monied man can’t chose the right woman, what chance does the average man have? And why make it worse by shaming Mr. Average for throwing in the towel when Mr. Ultra Successful gets KO’d in the first round at Divorce Court?
As men, here are countless paths we can choose in life. All we have to do is pick one and go for it. Patrick Henry tells us how his choices were made, and why.
