Because MGTOW does not benefit women. Prior to feminism and MGTOW women where in fact getting a lot more benefits then men. They got food shelter protection, the same rights for the most part (in some ways much more in a few select catagories slightly less) and none of the responsibilities. This is actually why men where praised because without something to justify them literally sacrificing themselves for the well being of women either through military, police or defending her at the expense of his own life to just working himself to death in a factory or in the fields to provide for her he really didn't get much else. The only things he got where love respect and the chance to reproduce. However feminism came along and attempted to exploit the male and female tendency to cater to women by portraying the few things that women where expected to do (if he is working all day to provide for her why is it wrong to expect her to cook and clean and take care of there children? He can't do it because he is slaving away at work and she is still doing less work then he is. Its not even a fair trade technically because she was still getting more then he was) as oppressive and men being naturally inclined to protect women wanted to do so so they did even if that "protection" was from responsibility and fairness. So feminism allowed for this exploitation but in order to justify its existence they need to find more and more "injustices" for them to fix (and profit from) so it just continued to an absurd level (which is why men are suffering in every category now while we still talk about women as if they are suffering and victims). MGTOW on the other hand completely destroys this mechanism, basically its non participation which means they do not respond to the victim hood/oppression claims made by feminism which in turn means they cannot be manipulated to the benefit of women. Women see men as tools (now this is not really as bad as it initially sounds, technically we all see people in this way at least as a way to benefit us) which isn't so bad except we are no longer, thanks to feminism, seen as both a means and an end within itself, that is we are not useful tools and people any more we are just tools, fully objectified in our current society. MGTOW basically makes us as far as tools go, inaffective. So MGTOW prevents feminist and women in general from using them, if that spreads women are in sever trouble because whether we a like to admit it or not women want mens

A lot of it is do to something called the red pill rage. I went through this myself. Society shames men into putting all our efforts into winning female approval, and they don't even warn us of the darker side of female nature. Instead we pretty much get told how women are made of sugar, spice and everything nice. If we fail, then we are assumed to be failures as men. This leaves men vulnerable to women, and when guys learn they have been manipulated to define themselves as men, by doing nothing but seeking female approval, the men naturally have a lot of anger. Those are the guys most active in the MGTOW community, aside from the content producers.
This leads others that don't understand MGTOW to see it as a hate movement instead of understanding that these are guys, that are in a lot of pain. In fact when men suffer from depression it often comes out as anger. It is just how men cope with pain. Sometimes this can last a couple of years.
Then the men enter the red pill blues, where they are no longer angry, but have no purpose or direction. Before their only purpose in life was obtaining the approval of women, and that purpose no longer works for them so they start to seek out new meaning. Then these men tend to start setting new goals, and leading better lives, that don't revolve around winning the approval of women.
I really think the problem is that men while in pain, react with anger, and society not only doesn't want to accept men that show our pain, and can easily paint that anger, as being something, other than the man needing to vent in order to recover and get to a better place emotionally.
MGTOW is also a male only space where we don't need to fear being judged by most of the community, and they don't like women, acting like they are supportive of it. Women can join the MRA's if she wants to support men. MGTOW is a safe place for men, from women.
Women trying to "join MGTOW" would be a bit like a man walking into a support group of women that were raped by men, and him trying to give the women a hug. He would likely not be welcomed into the group of female victims at that point. Men need our safe places, just like women do.
Feminism thrives on false victim hood. So even though MGTOW, wants nothing to do with women, so aren't a threat to women, feminists want to use the red pill rage as proof of the sexism against women that feminists are supposedly fighting against.
There is a difference between being celibate like I'm celibate, and people who decide to go their own way, but still have casual sex or watching porn or masturbate. If they have no need for a woman, then there is no need for sex or porn or masturbation. That is what I don't get nor seek to understand it because the fact is the fact. That is what I don't agree with it. Neither do I agree with feminism, because if you're a woman, who can really question your ability to be a woman? You don't need to prove you can do better by trying to be somebody your not. The whole idea is hatred either way for the either gender. People needs to look at themselves first before they can talk about what another gender is doing.
feminist get the most flack on here. women sometimes go along with the mgtow mantra and actually agree with it. when you say you're a feminist, people you didn't even know will dislike your comment, ask you questions but then want to argue you on your stances but want to call it a "discussion", call you a lesbian, dyke, man hating, selfish, stupid, complainer and etc. people actively make "why i dislike feminism" mytakes but i barely see anti or pro mgtow mytakes. men are probably gonna down vote me or some shit, go ahead. i don't care who you don't fuck, don;t date, don't marry and don't buy stuffs for. i've had hell all my life from men in my life so i guess i gotta go wgtow as well. cut the bullshit...
MGTOW at it's most basic is just a group of guys that have decided on a set of priorities that differ from a perceived norm, whereas feminism is organized activism against a set of perceived norms.
Personally, i think MGTOW is fine, where i view feminism in relation to women in the west as an outdated idea that no longer deserves attention. The day MGTOW becomes an acitivist movement is the day i'll think they're stupid.
There are men who have privately decided they don't want to date and get on with life. Then there are MGTOW who vocally trash women. I don't agree with trashing any gender of people. Most feminists don't trash men, just the patriarchy, which is a system, not individual men.

tons of people hate feminists don't have to look further than this site to see that. shouldn't be that way. people should be able to pursue or believe in the lifestyle as long as it doesn't negatively affect others
- u
Plenty of people hate feminists, too, so what's your point?
I don't think either group is especially aspirational, tbh.
No, Women ARE hated for being feminists because it's totally stupid. It doesn't even make sense. It's basically like saying "I don't want equal rights. I just want everything for real".
People hate the guys for mgtow because they are F-ING right. Women are shallow and hell. ALL of them. It's not rare a womans entire marriage or long term relationship is based on a height requirment or something stupid like that.
Women hate mgtow men because they are a threat of reality.
And you know what. If there was a life like woman robot that could have a decent conversation by loyal then all of those "guys are too nice" "guys need to do this" "this is the right type of guy" "Mistakes guy makes" will go out the window. Feminists will be non existent and women will have to actually put in effort to value themselves in a relationship. Not just turn totally fat and lazy and then get mad and demand that men should prefer fat women. Not devalue men by emasculating then through baby driven tests then losing respect for their compliance of learning how to cook and do the dishes.Women hate me because I'd rather spend my money on high end escorts than spend it on them lol. I went mgtow a year ago which is basically walking away from marriage/commitment/cohabitation/LTR.
Ever since then I labeled myself mgtow all i get now from women is:
Loser
Freak
Gay
Ugly
can't get a girlfriend
Misogynist
Sad bastard
Loner
You can't handle a strong woman
Pathetic
I'm not a man lol
Bitter (yes kind of because of why i have to go mgtow)
All that abuse from women i get just because I'm stating that I want to refuse relationships and go my own way!I'm not thinking "hated" because hate is a form of recognition... even respect. "I HATE Hitler because of all the evil he did." It is more like contempt for men who believe that the predominant benefit of Western women (easy pussy), most being infected with some degree of Feminist Derangement Syndrome, are not worth the effort, expense and risk. Feminists believe Feminism is "right" and should be accepted as such and that MGTOW is a wrongful retreat, like tax evasion. "The more I date Western women, the more I like my right hand!" Actually, the cure for Feminist Derangement Syndrome is foreign born Latina and Oriental women... and they cook good too!!!
To be accurate, Men who declare that they are MGTOW have come out of horrible Divorces and long term relationships. The Divorce Court System in the U. S. favors Women heavily and has driven Men to Suicide, Homelessness and Jail.

Those that survive their Divorce Court experience have experienced so much trauma that they choose to no longer date Women. Most MGTOW are grown Men. The typical MGTOW is in his 30s. Some are in their 70s.
Some MGTOW have revealed their faces on their Youtube Channel. Check out Vention1mgtow, Shay Duke Jackson, Terrence Popp and Jerry Liu. As you can see, varying ages and backgrounds.
I invite everyone to watch Terrence Popp's video. Terrence is a divorced combat veteran... and MGTOW.One surprising thing I've learned on GaG is how badly so many females need to be the centre of their SO's universe. This has nothing to do with feminism but It is the root of much conflict. Men might not put a name to it but all gtow to an extent. We masturbate. We'll hang with the guys. We'll girl-watch and even flirt. We'll crush on flighty boob-a-licious celebrity flibbertigibbets, we'll spend too much time at the office, we take time to pursue our hobbies, listen to our own music. Speaking of which this relates to the very annoying first thing so many women do on entering a room - they turn down the volume! .
With this as almost a driving force it cannot possibly be a surprise that women absolutely hate when som guys loudly and firmly assert their independence. All they're doing is put a name to standard male operating procedure.
As you point out each gender is saying to the other 'you don't own me.'Both are whiny losers, but considering how men tend to be treated worse, they're obviously gonna be judged harsher when it comes to this type of thing.
Feminism is seen as liberating and empowering. MGTOW is seen as misogynistic. But like I said, they're both losers.Essentially, feminism itself is a great movement, but far too many people take the ideology and twist it into an excuse to be nasty to men while having the 'greater good' as a shield. That being said, the movement does more good than harm, so the problem children of modern feminism can be ignored.
MGTOW though, doesn't seem like it does much good at all and rather seems like an excuse in itself to be an arsehole to women.
Modern feminism has grown to incorporate the fight against many problems that face men, and is only called feminism because that is the moniker that it has grown under and is recognised as (plus equalism sounds stupid).
In the end, an organisation should be judged upon its ideals and the actions of the majority of its members, and upon this way of judging, MGTOW should be judged poorly and feminism should be regarded with respect.Because some women are afraid of losing the position they have over men and some men are afraid to admit that they are really just a bunch of losers letting themselves be manipulated by a system that doesn't have the tiniest shred of respect for them. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
I don't agree that MGTOW get necessarily more hate for what they are than feminists. It all depends on how extreme your opinions as an activist are. A "feminist" who says she hates all men will get the same reaction as a MGTOW will when he says he hates all women. Unfortunately, in both groups the more extreme, unrealistic and hateful views get more attention than the moderate ones, which gives both groups a certain reputation.
Not a MGTOW , but my situation will keep me single , a FT working single dad , I am well aware my " market value " will be low , this fact , plus I am normally too tired & often stressed to even want to date. I answer to the question , yes it is a " shaming tactic " , it's open season on men anyway.
MGTOW is the bastard child of third wave feminism. The whole Red pill community used to just be about personal development for men with stuff like learning how to be disciplined, weight lifting, how to be a more attractive guy, and then it just became a woman hating group.
Because men are the foot stools of society and whose entire purpose is to serve and protect women. If men stop doing that then society collapse. Men have always been expendable in society, just look at wars.
wow a girl who actually understands MGTOW, this sounds too good to be true!
anyways the reason why we get more hate is obviously because we hit modern women where it hurts them the most. I can write a whole book on this but for now I'm gonna keep it simple. if you are still curious and want more answer just let me know and I'll respond as soon as I canTbh I think both groups are awful and their original intentions have been seriously taken too far.
MGTOW is the mirror image of modern feminism. It exists as a natural and unavoidable reaction to modern feminism. When a group is as ugly and nasty as feminism and does what feminism has been doing to males for years, is it any wonder why many males will respond with an equal degree of ugliness and nastiness? And when they do, is it any wonder that feminists will hate them even more than they do the general male population?
MGTOWs are hated only out of fear and ignorance. If a man chooses to not marry and not even date or associate with women, that's his choice and no one else's god damn business.
Feminist still have normal relationships with the opposite gender whereas MGTOW is group of losers that have given up getting laid, dating, and getting married to women as a whole. MGTOW is sad when you think about it.
