    So, we have a group of men looking at the state of the world (and in particular law/society on gender issues) and deciding they are just going to opt out of the whole relationships/marriage/children thing and swear off women. Is there any world in which that would not be described as misogynistic by default? The swearing off itself is seen as misogyny before you go even a step further.

    But this proves my point - that it’s women swearing off men rather than the reverse causes it to be viewed more positively.

      I feel like MGTOW is mostly all right wingers, which brings a lot more baggage then the left-leaning 4B movement

        I’m not right wing and still MGTOW. Not about supremacy. It is an ideology that says men can be fine without women. Period.

        • MGTOW is a legitimate thing on its own and doesn’t have anything inherently wrong with it. Unfortunately it has been mostly co-opted by misogynists. The “movement” (if we want to call it that) has been tainted by these bad actors.
