MGTOW means 'Men Going Their Own Way'. Men Going Their Own Way is an anti-feminist, mostly online community advocating for men to separate themselves from a society which they see as harmful to men, and particularly to eschew marriage and cohabitation.

MGTOW has been called a misogynistic group by many people online, some incels hide behind MGTOW in order to try and justify their misogyny. There are positive aspects of MGTOW as well as negative aspects.

Personally, I believe the idea of MGTOW is kinda good but it's just become a cesspool of incels and sexist, pathetic men blaming their failures in life on women.

In this movement, men are voluntarily choosing not to get into relationships with women for some of the following reasons listed below:

1. The court system often favours women in divorce and custody cases.

2. The for male domestic violence victims is almost non existent compared to their counterparts.

3. Men accused of domestic violence or s*xual abuse are considered guilty until proven innocent. Even in cases of false accusations women are never penalised and if men fail to prove their innocence, most of the time their life is ruined.

"I think it's kinda unnecessary and a bit misogynistic because the men who are in that community are that way because of how far we've gotten with women's rights and they're just mad at the fact that women have rights as well" -Anonymous

"MGTOWs are Men Going Their Own Way. They are anti-feminist men who believe women should be treated as objects. Most of the time they are trashy pieces of shit" -Anonymous

𝐖𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐬𝐡𝐨𝐮𝐥𝐝 𝐤𝐧𝐨𝐰 𝐚𝐛𝐨𝐮𝐭 𝐌𝐆𝐓𝐎𝐖:

On Reddit alone, over 15,000 redditors were following the r/MGTOW page which declares it is for "men going our own way by forging our own identities and paths to self-defined success; cutting through collective ideas of what a man is.”

Other websites including MGTOW.com are also dedicated to what they see as each man's fight for sovereignty of himself. And despite their hatred for women, homosexuality isn't accepted, either.

As with every community online the mgtow movement definitely has quite a few bad apples. These are incels using mgtow as an excuse for their sexism and misogyny. A few men have experienced nothing but good things with the mgtow movement. Some men claim its helped them to lose weight, be healthier and generally be a better man.

Again, these beliefs aren't mine I am simply informing you fine people about MGTOW and what it is. I have used the two websites linked in my post to help put this post together and included my own comments about MGTOW. Pictures aren't mine, I found them on Google.

Most of the societal trends that negatively affect men come down to traditional gender norms

The patriarchal system that feminists disapprove of hurts everyone, not just women
