Overview: Our view is that being MGTOW means downing the 'red pill' and understanding the nature of women. Once you do so, the rest is up to you. It's a perfectly valid option to sit it out, to “ghost” when it comes to women. And it's just as valid to "scratch that itch" with escorts, either at home or abroad. But for guys who, knowing what they know, want to use game to set up

, date, establish/manage FWBs (friends with benefits), this sub-forum is for that. So if you're a regular at

, it's all good. Some slight differences with MGTOW Game. We're not obsessed with notch-count, we don't define our worth as men in terms of “success” or “approval” by women. Plenty of great men with actual value (AV) don't necessarily have sexual market value (SMV) and don't care. Being a better man happens in “Living the Best Life”.
Advice: The difference with how we view Game and how PUAs view Game is not in the nature of the trade, but it's in perspective and priorities. Our focus on more broadly living the best life a man can means that women (and thus Game) occupy a portion of the whole. For lack of a better phrase MGTOWs pursue Recreational Game (RecGame). We'll talk here about the same techniques: Frame, dealing with sh*t tests, Opening, Mystery's stages, negging, dealing with LMR (last minute resistance). We'll talk about what women make the best candidates for Friends with Benefits- how to manage and set boundaries with FWBs. We'll also talk about p4p - the idea being that Game is generally getting women without the burden of a traditional relationship, whereas p4p is getting women without the burden of even Game. Finally, Game is verbal technique that can aid a MGTOW in
many settings, not just building attraction. Game as the science of the subtext of human communication can prove valuable because it decodes and explains how people perceive one another: their body language, their pauses, their lack of availability. Field Reports, questions, articles from PUA blogs, etc. are welcome.
