Would Ironwood be considered a mgtow? (mghow)

That is a complex question to answer because mgtow is essentially about selfishness, to various degrees.

Ironwood is selfless to a fault since he is willing to sacrifice his life for Atlas.

However, Ironwood's selflessness is based on selfishness since a Man should be allowed to use his strength and resources for his own desires. Ironwood desired to save Atlas. Selflessness is thus borne from selfishness.

Ultimately, I believe Ironwood is Mgtow. Ironwood is a man who has a strong sense of self. Ironically, his essential self is one of selfless sacrifice.

Weiss Schnee is pregnant.

"Father!" Weiss said as she placed her tea cup on the table, and in her agitated state spilled a drop of the Earl onto the white tablecloth.

"Father," Weiss said again as she pushed her chair back, "I cannot, in good conscience, marry Master Marigold." Jacques Schnee placed his tea onto the table and spilled two drops across the table like blood on laced snow before he could muster the strength to say.

"And why ever can you not marry Master Marigold?!"

"Because I am carrying his child, Father!"

Beside Jacques Weiss's sister, Winter Schnee, allowed a silent ruby tear to escape her iron self-control down her porcelain cheek as Weiss demurely sat on General Ironwood's broad lap.

"General!" Jacques said, "what have you to say for yourself?!"

General Ironwood quietly wrapped his hand around Weiss's and said.

"Jacques, I will cherish your daughter as if I have known her for all of five minutes."

Now there are two of them!

"General," Amonico Glass said as he leaned forward and placed his corpulent elbows on the table, "the Audit you are asking for is inconceivable. The overtime alone I would have to authorize would be downright criminal! What you want from my company is out of the board's range!"

Through the holoimage, General James Ironwood leaned back in his chair and said.

"Not ... for a Schnee."

Two figures flickered into view behind Ironwood. Behind Ironwood Weiss Schnee, dressed in a white blouse with its sleeves rolled up her forearms and buttons loose at her throat and chest, placed a hand on Ironwood's left shoulder and struck Amonico a glare over her thin, wire-rimmed glasses.

Whitley Schnee, his plain white business suit making the young man sharper than his age would imply, hovered by Ironwood's right shoulder and stared sharply at his older sister's intimacy with Ironwood while Ironwood said.

"May I present my auditors, Weiss and Whitley Schnee, they will audit your firm's sheets."

The holoimage then faded out and shut off.

Across from Amonico, Bram Thornmane smashed a white-gloved fist onto the table and said.

"This is getting out of hand! Now there are two of them!"

Amonico sighed and fell back against his chair, he then took off his glasses and polished them before he said.

"Jacques should not have agreed to that arrangement."

At This Range

Ironwood: *Watching a battle take place*

Winter: General, perhaps you should take cover.

Ironwood: Don't be ridiculous, they couldn't hit an elephant at this range.

At that exact moment a bullet hits Ironwood in the head and harmlessly falls to the ground.

Ironwood: I stand corrected, they couldn't hit an elephant at this range twice.
