After nearly a year, here is my introduction.
Originally I did not intend to write an introduction. Unlike others I come to MGTOW the easy way, I have no heroic tales to tell. It will be boring and embarrassing compare to the intro of May2020, Gargamel, SpiritR and many others.
Then a post from Autolite inspire me. Maybe I can write on how I can easily switch to MGTOW, what in my past shaped my mind in such a way that I can escape social propaganda and set the best course for my life.
I cannot speak for others, but for me I think it is the ability of the mind to separate logic and emotions played a major role for my easy transition. I think all men are inherently intelligent, but they let their emotion cloud their judgment and make stupid decisions.
It is their like and dislike that keep them from their full potential, just the majority of men can grow muscles if they workout enough with a good diet, it is the same thing with the brain. The brain can be good at programming, physics, maths if used often enough. Many men cannot have a 6 pack because their dislike is getting in their way of exercising. Likewise with programming, math and such. There may be a small difference played by DNA, it just mean that I have to put in more effort to get to the same place like other men. I don’t think I started out smart as I fail my physics before.
In secondary school I came across a mentality called “Stealing The Mind” I did not know its name at that time, but it is a method of controlling your like and dislike to produce a better outcome for yourself. It is reprogramming / brainwashing your own mind.
In a group holiday tour we are visiting a strawberry farm and eating strawberries we picked. There are people complaining that the strawberries is not as good as they expected. The strawberries is not really ripe, the other farm sell cheaper and better strawberries and so on. A man then said “Hey, we should think these strawberries are delicious so we can enjoy the food and keep the complains later. We cannot change anything by complaining and it hurt our appetite. If we think these strawberries are the most delicious things ever, we can enjoy them.”
I don’t remember word for word, but the gist of it is we are smarter to enjoy things that we cannot change, we just look from another perspective and change things we can. We can be happier to flip our mentality to like things we cannot change like already bought the strawberries and change things that we can, like our like dislike of the strawberries. The strawberries ain’t s~~~, it is better then average, why should we diminish our enjoyment of them because there are better strawberries? And yes the strawberries tasted better because we thought so.
After that, it make me thinking, if we can reprogram our like dislike that way, what different are we from robots? These are metal robots that get their thinking and behavior download by cable or CD. We are protein robots that get our software downloaded by the environment, books, society. For now we may be
more complicated protein robots, but the ability to program ourselves should be the same like the metal robots.
Around that time I failed physics and have bad grades on other subject. I dislike warping my mind to understand the formulas and workings and am lazy to study. I then thought what if I brainwash myself to like studies and such? What if this protein robot twist its dislike to like?
It is not easy. I tried a lot of things. Starting with the little things, I did the opposite of what my desires told me, as long as my logic tells me doing the opposite of my desires will not harm me. If I like something I give it to other people, if I like to eat something I give it to other people, or wait half and hour before eating and drinking water to prevent gastric. I stop doing things that I like but does not benefit me. I stop playing games, watching video, reading novels and such. I fear the dark, I purposely go to dark places and bask in it. When I hear music that distract me I stop the radio or go to other places. If I see a pretty girl that distract me I will look other way or look at the ground. (This practice make it easier to break the illusion of women). I have a numbers of relapse like a drug addict but slowly my desires give way to my mind.
In the end when I flip my mental switch and say yes I love this, I enjoy this; my body and brain will become hot, my breath lengthen, I start to laugh and enjoy the task I set for myself. I truly enjoy it as I slay equation after equation and experience each eureka moment. Studying become easier and easier and when I look back at my old self, I wonder how come my old self is stump by such an easy problem?
I focus my entire being on studying. My routine become eat, cycle, study, sleep, bath. I don’t allow my mental resource to be directed to anything else. And from a fail student I scored high enough to earn a conditional scholarship. That’s why I think men are inherent intelligent, they just let their desires to keep them sidetracked and after being sidetrack long enough they cannot compete with other men who don’t get sidetracked. Unless they put in A greater amount of effort.
I recognize one of my desires, my distraction is pretty women, and won’t allow myself to get sidetrack. I am lucky to conduct this brainwashing experiment during puberty and keep me away from the vices of women. Practicing no sex before marriage helps too. Nature makes the desire for women a powerful drug.
I tried a number of things breaking my attraction for women. I imagine my eyes are X-ray and see beneath the skin. This is the skull, the bones, the marrow, the ligaments. What’s so pretty about it? This is the intestine, Yuck, all women carry s~~~ with them everywhere. No matter how beautiful a woman she will s~~~, she will urinate, she will sweat, her nose have s~~~, her ears have s~~~, her eyes have s~~~, her mouth will smell until she brushes in the morning and she will vomit. What’s so great about her. Visualize the toilet and the things she do in the toilet make me nauseous and lose the attraction quickly. After doing that a lot of times my brain is train not to bother me like Pavlov’s drooling dogs experiment.
My self reprogramming experiment don’t end there. In my first job I am paid half the market rate, have to do things outside my job scope like driving, picking up goods and personal, doing technician wiring and drilling when I am an engineer. I thought to myself, well I will just think that I am still in the university. And this is the best university ever. This university have driving curriculum so you know the lay of the land. This university let you experience the job of people who work under you so you will not be cheated by them. What university pay you to learn instead of you paying them while subsidizing for your mistakes? I shall learn as much as I can before I graduate.
After 3 years I have a sizable boost in my salary and was promoted to assistant manager. I then graduate for another company about twice the pay.
So I think the practice I had in my youth make me accept the red pill easily, despite never been f~~~ over by women. Looking logically at the proof is enough.See the red pill and what MGTOW claims, NNNNNNOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO, how can that be, you are saying almost half of the world population are that evil?
There must be a mistake, there must be quite a sizable amount of good women. Flip the switch, kill emotions, enter robot mode. See the proof, calculate the odds, did the cost benefit analysis. The conclusion is clear. Even if unicorn exist, they are not worth the risk and investment. There are other alternative to attain unicorn like enjoyment. And then there are even better cost effective alternative for enjoyment.
Granted on this point in life I don’t have much chance to use the mental switch, still it is handy to laugh and be happy with a flick of the fingers.
Ok stop laughing now, it is hard to type.
I don’t know how useful it is for MGTOW, maybe it will be a mildly entertaining story. Thanks everyone for sharing their knowledge here, it let me dodge a major bullet as I was thinking I reach a point in life where I should find a unicorn to settle down.
There is no magic in MGTOW, just recognition of the truth and logical decision how to avoid dangers. The red pill is but the truth, it is no magical potion. Do not think in this modern world men have no longer have natural enemies, men are prey to women and government.
