Recently, the Natural Law Party of Florida, No Labels, and the Peoples Party asked the Florida Secretary of State to remove them as qualified parties. Also, in April 2025, a new party qualified. It is the Men Going Their Own Way Party, but because that name is so long, the Secretary of State considers it to be the MGTOW Party.
Men Going Their Own Way is a movement that advocates that men not socialize with women, according to this wikipedia article.
Wikipedia is your source? Pathetic. Anyone can edit that.
So human species extinction party?
The People’s Party revocation was not voluntarily.
The notice from the Secretary of State does not indicate that the office has adopted a shortened form for name of the MGTOW Party. Perhaps the party founders chose that name.
The Peoples’ Party action was voluntary. The party chose to end its status by simply refusing to keep its list of officers updated. That is a rather ragged way to end qualification, but the party did it to itself.
Gays Only Party ???
Not a gay group; prefers abstinence or at best, casual hetero sex.
@RW,
The People’s Party did not respond to letters from the Secretary of State with respect to their failure to name a new chairman after the previous chairman resigned, nor file an audit. “refusal” to file implies an affirmative action by the party.
Sometimes refusal is lack of action. I refuse to believe Jim Riley does not know this.
Richard Winger,
They might be closet gay men. The definition seems to be that they refuse to marry or socialise with women.
Abstinence of course leads to humanity becoming extinct.
I like casual sex with women as much as the next guy, but without marriage and relationships, it becomes very difficult to have and raise children, particularly healthy ones.
Many women who only have casual sex kill their children. If they allow their children to survive long enough to be born, they typically become wards of the state, along with their mothers (if they aren’t already).
The children are then typically abused – by their mothers, various caregivers, mothers friends and relatives, men who are casually in and out of their mothers bedrooms and lives, peers growing up in similar circumstances, local thugs, older predators, law enforcement, etc .
Those kids then pass on the abuse and the social problems metastasize over generations.
The m.g. Tows may well have a point that contemporary society, suffering under the boot of cultural and economic Marxism and feminism and the rest of the intersectional leftist dross, is deeply unfair to men.
However, the solution can’t possibly be for men to refrain from marriage and relationships with women en masse.
What is needed instead is a radical reactionary restoration of traditional social norms from past centuries, including the restoration of patriarchal social order.
MGTOW is an idea whose time has come! It’s about men who are fed up with privileged women and would prefer to deal with them as little as possible.
Personally, I am not part of any MGTOW organization. I apply my own MGTOW principles to my life. Some of us do still date women, but we are very selective in which ones. My girlfriend is about the furthest you can get from a feminist. She’s traditional, but doesn’t try to force me into the marriage cult. Nor do we cohabitate. My life belongs to me. Her life belongs to her. Most men can only dream of someday living the life that they currently provide for their wife and kids.
When I select a new professional of any sort (medical, financial, etc), I will choose a man over a woman most times. I once strayed from this principle and chose a female dentist, with all female staff. The drama was overwhelming, and I needed to change providers.
This is part of what MGTOW means to me. I encourage my fellow men to investigate and discover for themselves. (A good book to read — while not strictly MGTOW — is “The Manipulated Man” by Esther Villar.)
Women have their sisterhood and are viewed as strong and courageous for going it alone without men. There’s no reason that men can go it alone without women.
You sound like the cultist, not the proponents and practitioners of traditional marriage.
Of course it makes sense to be selective in who you date and marry. Anyone who dates indiscriminately or marries randomly is a fool who’s asking for trouble.
If you are fed up with privileged women, date underprivileged women, marry one, and keep her that way, including quite literally keep her barefoot, pregnant, and according to your preference literally or somewhat less literally chained to the stove and or bed (or outside to a tree, etc).
Your girlfriend is the furthest thing from a feminist? Then her life doesn’t belong to her. Before feminism, a female was owned by her father before ownership was transferred to her husband upon marriage, which is still how it is in sane, traditional societies.
You don’t cohabitate? So what happens if or when she gets pregnant? Perhaps you don’t have sex either, or only have the kind of sex that’s guaranteed to not produce offspring. Perhaps you use birth control and use abortion (murdering your babies) as a birth control method of last resort.
I don’t know or want to know about your sex lives, and this may be OK for some people, but if it’s a “movement” it runs counter to the interests of continuing and perpetuating the survival of humanity as a species. Not good. It’s totally ok to be misogynistic, but that’s misanthropic, and suicidal on a species level – and that’s a whole different kettle of fish.
If your girlfriend was actually traditional, you’d get married. In fact, traditionally there was no such thing as a girlfriend. It was called courting. The female’s opinion was secondary, if sought or asked at all. The primary objective was to win the agreement of her father. The husband frequently didn’t even meet the wife before marriage, much less date her. I don’t think you know what traditional is, and your girlfriend either doesn’t know either or doesn’t want you to know.
Women have their “sisterhood”, as they should. But women who never marry are bitter old maids, spinsters, and childless cat ladies. Men who never marry are cads, playboys, incels, gigolos, or losers. That’s ok for some guys, but not for a “movement” to encourage. Guys should of course have fraternal bonds just as women have a “sisterhood,” but neither one should encourage antisocial behavior that leads to humanity becoming extinct.
