I don’t know if I’d trust a set of jack stands that costs less than a 2×4, though certainly I’d trust them over a woman.

The point is, for everything except having children (which are off the table), women are utterly replaceable. And the replacements are ridiculously inexpensive and far more reliable. Never mind the complicated metal devices and safety equipment, a stack of dead wood is literally more useful than a wife.

Superb thread.

That’s why many men are manginas. They rely on emotional support from their women. I was one of those idiots when I was younger. It turned out, women don’t respect a man that talks about his problems too much and is dependent on her.

Been there, got the T shirt. I actually think blue pill men sort of enjoy giving up their freedom: life can seem easier if you’re not having to make decisions. But it also fosters resentment and I think that’s why blue pill guys can be so annoying: they’ll roll their eyes about their woman but still take all the s~~~ from her. I guess it’s that idea that some people prefer the plantation. Some people would prefer slavery. Freedom is scary. But boy is it worth it.

I’ve also thought about the safety thing. Agree you’re not much safer having a woman around; laughing in horror at some of the stories in this thread like the wife who was too busy watching TV to check you were not dead. Jesus save us.

I think it won’t be long before AI/robotics offers the same kind of safety net that traditionally you got from family life, e.g. something in your house will notice you’ve had a heart attack or whatever and automatically call emergency services. Put bluntly, women will have less and less to offer men, and at some point the “market value” of women will crash big-time and another generation of women will be left to pick up the pieces. Perhaps then they’ll start thinking about what they can offer of value to men other than sex.

There aren't holes in your pockets. It's called marriage.

Most of these financial concerns disappear without women. You’re only going to worry about a leaking roof when you have no money in savings or insurance to handle those scenarios. If you don’t have to support a woman, you can be prepared for that sort of thing.

And to be clear, MGTOW doesn’t mean you’re alone. You can have friends and such that will be therefore you when need them and vice versa. It’s just that these friendships will have reasonable conditions.

Ok. Then do it.

I have a decent income and am frugal. After a few years of marriage, I began doing the math on our finances and was wondering why we didn’t have more savings. After my divorce, ex asks me to give her a Christmas decoration she forgot to take. I googled it and found out it cost $400. That’s where the money went. Had I forgone marriage, I’d have no student loans and a paid for house. Now, I’m still paying on the loans and house as well as paying exorbitant child support and alimony.

A co-worker recently told me, "If you want to see who someone really is, divorce them." I have found out how true this is. When your wife drops the façade of being the caring partner, you will witness all of the greed, hate, and spite that she has masked. It is truly breathtaking!

Good post for any lurkers. Women are like Black Widow spiders. After you mate with them, they begin to eat you and suck your life juices.

Throughout my marriage, we kept separate bank accounts. I made the mistake of marriage, but at least I didn’t make the mistake of a joint account.

The evil in women’s hearts leaves them no moral bounds as to inhibit them from descending to the lowest levels of darkness to acquire their self entitled desires.

As sidecar and hermit point out, there are workarounds for not falling off a roof or getting crushed under a vehicle. Infact, having a wife wouldn’t prevent you from either situation in the first place, so better to be using these married or not. For just over twenty bucks I bought 75′ of 3/4 rope that I tie to my car and swing over the roof to have something to grip to keep me from falling off. Last time I did, I thought about how much BETTER it was to have a twenty dollar rope as my backup than my crazy lying stealing lovely adulterous ex wife! ! !

Naw. If you’re married, forget the safety equipment and send her up on the roof.
