Like Alpha male I have also become much more outspoken since reading your site, for the first time, almost 4 years ago. No doubt, you have been doing a great job in getting men to speak up.
Today I believe we need even more activism and together with a few other guy's it has resulted in an idea about 'MEN GOING THEIR OWN WAY' based on zenpriests essay 'Ignoring women'. Those other guy's will speak for themselves in due time.
The idea is to instill masculinity in men. To make men understand that they don't have to cater to women unless there is a 'quid pro quo' situation. Men doesn't need someone to compete with. They need someone to help them. Men naturally enjoy being with other men in bands or brotherhoods, so they should go ahead and start some men's club's and enjoy that. Men should also understand that you don't have to live with women, that they can live a fullfilling life without living with women. This doesn't mean without sex, not at all - it might, on the contrary, be with too much sex - depending on your personal preferences.
By instilling masculinity in men and demanding femininity from women we will take part of this from the web to real life. In order to reinforce this a small symbol or logo is being offered - free for all to use.
For this purpose, here's a small essay stating the points

MEN GOING THEIR OWN WAY The goal of men is to install masculinity in men and feminity in women!It is about time that we take the men's movement from vitual reality into real reality and this is the first step in that direction. By working to make men more masculine we will be paving the way for a change.
By working to instill masculinity in men we will work towards making men self-reliant, proud and independent. A man who is selfreliant with a good selfesteem doesn't have to rely on women or others to support him and he can thus set his terms for any engagement with women.
If women don't like these terms then it's just too bad. What we want from women is that they are nurturing, supporting and responsible.
That women have other qualities is not interesting to men because we don't need them!
Femininity will be the price women pay for enjoying Masculinity in men!This should the personal viewpoint of every man. By holding this point of view you will be helping other men and, more important, you will be helping boys grow up to become men.
This goal is not about reinstalling patriarchism or revoking female voting rights or making socialism illegal - it might have this as a byproduct or something else like it - but not directly and not as a political ideology. Only the future will show what happens and by going our own way we are preparing men and boys for that future.
The major change will be that we stop the philosophical discussions about the future and the mens movement and women and what not - and start to have a practical aproach to it.
We aim to instill masculinity in men - period!Prime Strategies That Complement Our Product And GoalWe have two main strategies:
1. Instilling masculinity in men by -- Demanding respect for men.
- Serving as good male role models.
- Living independent lives.
- Fighting chivalry.
2. Ignoring and Shunning women.Ignoring and Shunning women to force them from even thinking about acting other than what we need from them and forcing them into a complementary position with men instead of a competitive position as is now the case.
Feminine Qualities we need from women -
- Nurturing
- Supportive
- Responsible
- Respectful
- Honest
It is those two strategies that come together in one;
MEN GOING THEIR OWN WAY - or a similar message like;
MEN LEAVING or
WAY OUTWe need a Logo to support this idea a Logo which promotes and summarizes these two strategies.
This is the suggestion for a Logo.
T-shirt with LogoEvery man supporting this idea is welcome to use the Logo in this or similar contexts.
What we do as activism or the way we behave personally are the
Tactics.1. Use of a Logo which symbolises the strategy.
2. Run one or many Web-sites and Fora that promotes this. Just join in, you are welcome!
3. Run one or more web-sites which tells the truth about feminism. That is allready going on.
4. Provide Stickers, T-Shirts, etc, with various statements such as "Chivalry is Dead".
5. Writing articles supporting our product.
6. Producing music promoting our product.
7. International events and local meetings.
8. Establishing men's' clubs.
9. Boycotting certain products.
You will basicly be alone doing this, there are no organisation supporting you. You just go your own way and do what you believe is right, you are never obligated beyond your own conscience. True masculinity is also about accepting the rights of other men and not letting them down for any short term personal benefits.
The mens movement does actually cover a much larger picture. By instilling masculinity in others, as well as yourself, you will actually be improving the lives of everybody, including women and children.
IF IT'S NOT RIGHT - GO YOUR OWN WAY!Take care brother !
