‘There are gaps in our educational and mental health systems’.
San Francisco author Tim Patten is a former professional roller derby athlete, software engineer and author of six books on male empowerment. His latest book, "Masculinity is our Future" is a groundbreaking message, not one of superiority or authority, rather it is about responsibility, development, and respect for yourself and others. It contains useful self-help chapters. His books in support of "MGTOW, Building Wealth and Power" and "MGTOW Why I Cheat", have become a classic for bachelors, MGTOW, Herbivore men and other men who shun the patriarchal expectations of marriage, cohabitation with women and having children. He is a believer in MGTOW (Men Going Their Own Way) and writes this interesting book in the format of eleven stories of how men who have unsatisfactory relationships with women can regain their inner structure and right to feelings and be able to find relationships (or repair failing ones) by communicating with themselves as well as with their female partners the justification of their needs and be released from the cage of obedience into which they have placed themselves.As the description of the book’s purpose states, ‘This book aims to empower young men who love women by helping them understand how their natural passions can lead them into an emotional and financial abyss. The 11-cautionary tales in these pages, which detail the kinds of mind games, manipulation and legal dangers that males are regularly exposed to, make it clear just how lethal romantic relationships and marriage can be. However, for those who work to recognize bad choices and focus on making good decisions, the upside is greater freedom, happiness, and success. Since the modern men’s liberation movement first became noticeable in Japan in 2006, it has spread rapidly, evolving into what has become MGTOW, or Men Going Their Own Way. Today the movement reaches across the world’s nations. No longer content to be punished and unfairly treated simply because of biology, millions of men worldwide are sharing and learning new ways of navigating their interactions with the opposite sex, dodging the murderous bullets and razor wire surrounding the toxic, one-sided relationships that have long been the norm. Here’s to freedom!’But it really is in the final pages of the book, after the stories have been studied and the facts each story summarized with a Fact Guide for Men, that Tim brings the book into focus: ‘Too many individuals suffer the misery of being beaten down in a relationship, and the torture of incessant nagging and conflict. Too many must endure the tedium of working endlessly to provide for a family, and the accompanying sense of invisibility and disposability. A life without rest and without dreams destroys the soul. Although it requires Herculean strength to drag oneself up from these depths, it can be achieved. When one learns from the past, doors open to unveil alternative options. So, begins the journey into limitless possibility. After reading this book, you may learn to modify your patterns of thought and behavior. You may be inspired to change the direction of your life. You may discover the ability to harness your own greatest asset, innovation, by unshackling the bonds that are holding you back. Once you’ve freed yourself, you will begin to manifest the world of your utopian tomorrow. There are planets to discover, oceans to explore, and uncharted territories to conquer. Fellow men will design and build the infrastructures and technologies of the future. Constructing new designs will empower our souls with life fulfillment. Men will dream, engineer, and realize the world that is yet to come, which will likely extend beyond our planet and into outer space. We are fortunate to live in an era when the world is exploding with promise. We are living in the Goldilocks Zone of life. Whether your passion lies in carpentry, masonry, software engineering or stem cell research; now is the time to dance your merry fandango. Now is the time to compose a symphony for yourself and those you love, and for the people of the world.’This is not an anti-feminist book: quite the opposite – it is a means to encourage men to be honest and true to their need for communication and become more real and strong partners. Grady Harp, March 18

Interesting short stories about self help, directed to men in toxic relationships
It’s hard for me to put into words what I experienced while reading this book. Don’t get me wrong: I think it is well-written and I like the author’s style here. But, as a woman, some things are weird and don’t resonate. I don’t think this is an anti-feminist book nor a book who advocates cheating as a way of life, but I was expecting something a bit more light-hearted, maybe even satirical and, in fact, it’s a bit dark and emotional. Almost like a self-help book directed to men who tend to fall in toxic relationships.In a way, although it’s directed to men and the movement MGTOW (Men Going Their Own Way – a movement that I was unfamiliar with), I think it would be fairly simple to use the same style and (almost) the same reasoning for women. It’s a celebration of someone’s true self and his ambitions and capacities when not limited by relationships that drag them down. It’s definitely not what I was expecting but I enjoyed it, even when I wanted to scream out loud “Why is MGTOW a real thing???”

Double standard
Probably the dumbest book I have ever read. Men want to cheat but lose their minds when women cheat back. Ladies if a man cheats on you make sure you cheat on him back. Every thing a man does to me I do right back to him.

situation and circumstances these guys go through with their love ones. I found some interest pointers by reading ...
Men Liberation Movement was first noticed in Japan in 2006, I didn’t know this until I read this novel. It’s about Men Going Their Own Way -MGTOW, World Wide and no longer being ashamed to do so or speaking out. Aimed to Empower young men who loves women by helping them understand how natural passion can lead them into emotional and financial abyss. Each story is this book has interesting tales of true misunderstanding, situation and circumstances these guys go through with their love ones. I found some interest pointers by reading this, Love is giving someone the power to break your heart and trusting him or her to break it. I found that interesting because my own view on love is very particular, I as a woman came up with, “love is an emotion that human came up with to feel better about their emotional attachment to their spouse regardless if they are good or bad and there, need and wants!This book tells of the Entrapment men face in these relationships where they are having a hard time speaking their point of view without being judged, yelled at, misunderstood and put down. It talks about the Freedom they feel once they let go of all these hang-up that holds them back with the person they are married to or dating or to for go relationship at all and just date and have freedom to chose rather they want to be married again or not! After each story a Fact Guide for Men appears…some of them I agree with and some I don’t but for each its not for me to judge because I am not in a relationship with them those that are should understand a few things before things get too serious, that will save on the heartache later.….I believe and open communications between both people in a relationship is what a marriage should be…letting everyone into your marriage or society standards should be something discussed before the marriage takes place. If a wife expects her husband to be the main provider…he should know this before hand before he asked her, therefore she will probably not give him any unusual demands. He should know her sex habits before and after marriage and what is to be expected after they are marriage and children enter the picture. Will that help on cheating, probably not…but understanding it will help.This book is insightful for all to read and take notes and understand where the author is coming from. I recommend it.
