You already are. I wish I thought the same of myself.

Hurrah for that, Brother Wolf. One man, living AS a man, can have infinitely more influence than a thousand, chanting in unison like just one more mob. That's the whole point: there's only ONE of each of us. Feminism reduces women to being just part of a sex, as if the issuing of anatomical equipment were enough to define a person, and definition enough. I fear the MRM aims no higher than this for men. One man is the only one of himself that will ever exist. Such is true for women...

Ever notice how many influences are aimed at us our whole lives to make us fear our own company, or the idea of ever being alone? For some reason, those just didn't penetrate very deep in me. Sure, I like some company now and then, and ask anybody, when I've been alone a little too long I'll talk your ear off. But as myself, not as some kind of convert to something. I swear, the notion of being part of some mass happening, following some ridiculous apocalypse narrative, is more terrifying...

It's been some weird kind of curse in my life, thinking someone was out there who would team up with me and get some things done; my family, fellow tradesmen I've known, various women, now this men's rights thing... The pattern always runs the same: people make it sound like we have some interests in common, tell me they really "know what I'm saying", a lot of head-nodding, etc... Then, one after another, it turns out they had a backup plan, you know, the one that never included actually...

It's called "manhood", and since no one bothered with teaching most of us what the hell that is or how to go about it, we just make it up as we go along, which seems to be the bulk of the history of our sex anyway. I know one thing, and that's that I want nothing to do with leftist-style activism, which is little more than unionizing the male reality and reducing us all to a bunch of sloganeering ants. I'm not willing to give up my identity as the man that I am to anyone or anything,...

I sought help during all the legal nightmares I've been through, and none was forthcoming. Every father's organization I contacted had nothing but boilerplate cliches and "keep your nose clean" advice about complying with every injustice dealt out to me, and assurances that they were "working closely" with some other bureaucratic machine to do fuck-all. My response was "fuck that." So I have engaged, alone, in a combination of open defiance and hardcore legal assertiveness, with mixed...

Dr. Blue Jekyll, meet Mr. Felix Hyde... It's worth logging in just to see which one is in charge on a given day.

As both an approval junkie and a habitual troublemaker, I log in each time I go online, so I can collect my likes and reps, and then go on to make a general nuisance of myself. Naturally, this is no fun unless done in plain sight.:wow:

I've learned the hard way that dealing with confirmed and self-described feminists is a lot more straightforward, than dealing with women who never knew or have bad relations with their fathers. Such gals simply don't register men as part of the same species; they may not even have any hostile intent toward us, but they just haven't a fucking clue how to communicate or coexist with us, and tend to be pretty insensitive to male temperament in general. The hazard is, women without dads are...

You make a good point, but there is already massive opposition both to feminist philosophy and the resulting policies by women. In fact, the beginning of my decoding of feminist dogma came from women. The problem is how the mainstream media and advertising industries, representing a tiny minority of any population, represent feminist memetics (permanent victimhood, the "glass ceiling", "empowerment", etc) as obvious and normal. The good news is how little credibility the MSM is leaving...

All in good fun...you're not the only one. Most of the power held over us by anyone is our own fear. I've discovered a range of responses, from standing up for what's coming to me, to open defiance of what isn't coming to someone else, as a way of dealing with it. I mean, if we're gonna have to be scared anyway, why not face it down?

BOO!!! just checking...:rolleyes2:

The whole modern myth of feminine independence is shored up by wills, trusts, grants, easy credit, and welfare. Kick away these artificial props and watch women scrambling for male support. I've never met a woman who had to start from scratch and wasn't being heavily subsidized by some or all of the above. The idea of a woman living on what she earns is unknown to me. Trouble is, most women have no concept any more of how to be of any use to a man in exchange for whatever we have to offer...

Just being born with them is already that. Might as well put them to use.

How about a new tag? We got MRAs and MGTOWs, so what about adding MFTFB? (men finding their fucking balls)

One thing that has done a lot of harm to my playing a good "provider" role is seeing absolutely no support or assistance to my work life coming from the women I have tried to make a life with. I have seen enough husband/wife small business partnerships running smoothly to know it is more than possible. But the women I have chosen (poorly) have taken a total pass on ever doing a thing to help make my career a success. In fact, this disgusting prejudice people have toward a man "working...

The direction of this conversation seems to be that men's wives and mothers, far, FAR more than any organized efforts of feminist agitation, have contributed to a weakening of the male role in a pretty far-reaching way. What I give organized feminism credit for, mostly through image-making commercials for women's products, is capitalizing on the power vacuum and creating a self-image in women that assumes going in that men are weak and ineffective. Because it is about selling products based...

It's the one that says "EXIT".

My dream on entering manhood was to find a woman to stand WITH. There have been no takers. All of them have wanted only what helped them get what they were after, and all of them were motivated by being at war with their own mothers before I ever came along, having something to prove to them at my expense. I was just a prop, there was never anything but lies about our achieving anything together, and it continues. I can feel proud, and do, about standing up to a woman, and I expect to have...

What children are truly victims of, generation after generation, is a system that rewards greed and acquisition above devotion and unity. All the values around us (Yan Yan might take exception to this from his grass hut...) are based on the desire of the individual to take sole charge of their own destiny and build a world in their own selfish image. Women did not build this system, they are just taking it over as men surrender it to them, and showing themselves to be just as greedy and...

It seems you're being facetious, but I have a pact with myself: I don't do anything clandestinely. I represent myself as myself, am open and honest about who and what I am, and people can take it or leave it. This includes my calling widely online to hundreds of people around the country for a major investigation of the VAWA mafia, and openly defying the IRS and encouraging others to do the same, on numerous venues. If I go down for standing to my beliefs, it will be as myself and not on the...

After several of my posts failed to appear, I wrote this:

I just took a rare Saturday afternoon nap, had several lucid and revealing dreams, and woke up a little disoriented but much more at peace than I've been in a long time, and can't even tell you why exactly. But I do know I stood firm to the mother of my daughter this week, laid some things on the line after hesitating for a long time to confront her at all. I told her certain things were going to have to change or I would change them, she changed her tone, we worked some things out, and I...

This is a big day for me. I just remembered it has been a long time since we were the ones saying that. What goes around comes around, young'un. Won't be long before some kid is saying that to you, and you'll wonder what hit you. Around the time you think you have it figured out what needs to be done, some strangers who were children a few days before are already doing something else, and they don't stop and listen to your formulations. Besides, the code of etiquette I speak of between...

Uncensored and uncut, this is us. Welcome aboard.

This is an excellent point, and it touches on a very subtle omission in MRM propaganda: There is plenty of content on spouting off ABOUT women, but next to nothing practical on standing up TO women, which is a skill and a will VERY FEW MEN dare to master. When MRAs begin to hunt down the elephant in the room, which is an entire male population owned and operated by, and living in fear of, the women they think they love and wish pathetically that they were loved by, I might just begin...

I'd a lot rather put a gal on a pedestal who can handle being there, than get ridden down by one sitting on her high horse. It's extremely rare any more to meet a gal under about seventy-five years of age with the training and dignity to be a real lady. The whole code of how young ladies and gentlemen were once raised to treat each other has been discredited, mocked, misinterpreted or forgotten. Now it's more like a nonstop contest between women and men over who's superior, whose life has...

My son is being raised by a stepdad, and I have been completely blacked out on how it is going. If I had the resources I could blow it all open with a big legal case, but too much of that has already gone on since he was a baby. Something tells me his mom cut off our whole family from contact when he entered adolescence because her idyllic replacement-model marriage isn't exactly going like she planned, but I can't really know. He'll be eighteen in three more years and we can try and start...

Felix, did you change your meds? Looks like someone slipped you a "positive pill"...:wow: Lie down for a bit, it'll pass.
