First, I am re-posting my video "Becoming Ambient" because, in light of recent developments, I feel it is good to re-broadcast that particular message. The best messages are the perennial ones, don't you think so?
Next, I am re-posting a response which I made to a commenter on a recent blog entry. Trust me when I tell you that all of these things tie together and relate to the present zeitgeist:
You are spot on with your statement that "MGTOW" is not a cult. However, there is a certain faction which has commandeered the MGTOW label for itself, claiming to be the MGTOW .... and unfortunately, the general public has bought this.
MGTOW is nothing more than a core political mindset concerning male autonomy, and the extra baggage re hypergamy, Briffault's law, and so on, was thrown onto the wagon recently.
My own take on hypergamy et al, was stated in my video "Becoming Ambient." To summarize: I refuse to "go there" in my public rhetoric, and in my private thoughts I remain a skeptic or agnostic.
However, those who wish to investigate along such avenues are quite free to do so. I am not the thought police; who the hell am I to tell them what to think?
I believe that feminism has removed moral constraints from women, and thereby released the "dark feminine" to operate freely in the world. However, I leave in abeyance the question of what composes the dark feminine -- that is, whether hypergamy, etc, play a part in it.
But I do hold any woman I meet accountable to my highly snippety standards, just as I would hold any man accountable.
And in the present historical timeframe, I would urge ALL MEN -- whether they consider themselves "MGTOWs" or not -- to exercise more-than-usual risk mitigation in their dealings with women. We now live in an "abnormal" situation, and normality is supended until this gets ironed out.
So the worst thing we can do these days, is live in a make-believe world pretending that "everything is normal".
It's just the way things are right now.
Things are not "normal".
