I thought MGTOW was guys not getting married because the family court laws are designed to destroy men? I didn't think it was forgetting about woman and moving to a remote cabin and living like a monk.
For some it is. There are different classifications and degrees of MGTOW:
Level 0 — Situational Awareness: the member has taken the red pill and embraces the idea that gender equality is a lie and propaganda. Women have significant rights/privileges over men, and this makes them dangerous.
Level 1— Rejection of Long-Term Relationships: the man rejects long-term relationships but will still partake in short-term relationships and sexual encounters. One night stands can be recorded and serves some protection against false accusations. It is near impossible to record an entire marriage or relationship.
Level 2—Rejection of Short-Term Relationships: the member won’t participate in hook-ups or any form of short-term or sexual relationships. Very very safe, but not entirely foolproof.
Level 3—Rejection of even being friends with a woman.
Level 4—Rejection of engaging women who are strangers. Avoiding female strangers completely (besides basic things like ordering food). Not volunteering to help a woman out as she could falsely accuse you of something for being too nice. No unnecessary small talk with stranger women. No saying “hi”. No eye contact with them.
Level 5— Strongly limiting interaction with women at work or elsewhere. Only speak to them for work related duties. No personal conversations or talk. You are neutral to women. No display of hate or love, they are like computers at work—only to be consulted for doing the job. Nothing else. They are objects for doing a job, nothing else. You do not speak to them for anything, nor provide any emotional support for them. You leave them alone completely unless needed for work duties. You politely shut them off and let them know you are not interested in conversing with them.
