*snort* there's nothing 'hip' about MGTOW or MRAs. They're pretty much entirely middle-aged divorcees who feel like their wives got the better end of the bargain, or single younger men who can't figure out why the women in their lives don't behave more like the ones they see in video games or movies.
Well, I had never heard of either of them before you had brought them up. You're obviously much more up on modern culture and associated things than I am. Or, maybe you just read a lot of Feminist material, and MGTOWs and MRAs have been identified as the enemy.
"Men Going Their Own Way": I can't imagine that there is much to unify the group, as it would be about each member going his own way, rather than trying to follow uniform marching orders. I can't even imagine that they would ever bother to hold meetings that any group of Feminists with bullhorns would take the trouble to interrupt.

Having looked up the acronym, but not having bothered to research the topic: why would a man goes his own way be "selfish and deluded?"
Because the *reason* that they can't accept women as they are is pretty much always because women behave like human beings with their own wants and needs, rather than servants.
Wouldn't "going their own way" be a reasonable solution? I mean, no-one thinks ill of the woman in the Dilbert joke who decided that she had no use for men. Obviously, anyone who did think ill of her would be demonized as a sexist.
