Q1: Why is MGTOW called anti-feminist and misogynist?
A1: Many published, reliable sources such as scholarly journals and books describe MGTOW as anti-feminist and/or misogynist,[1][2][3][4] and no reliable sources contradicting these descriptors have been found.
A2: Again, the short answer is that reliable sources have described the overlap between members of MGTOW and white supremacist and/or alt-right movements.[5][6][7]

I would like the word misogynistic and white supremesist removed from this article. It's offensive to tar all men with the same brush. 94.175.115.150 (talk) 19:26, 14 August 2022 (UTC)[]
Not done the article isn't about "men" in general, it's about the group and it's ideology, which is well sourced. So it won't be removed. PRAXIDICAE🌈19:32, 14 August 2022 (UTC)[]

Edit so that readers understand it is not ran by white supremacists. This article is not accurate and strongly comes off as it is followed by racist ppl. Remove "overlap'. ChiefRunningBear91 (talk) 20:18, 22 August 2022 (UTC)[]
Remove the word misogynistic. 129.15.64.230 (talk) 20:26, 30 September 2022 (UTC)
MGTOW is not misogynistic. Reading that in the first line makes this article lack credibility. It sounds like something written by an ultra feminist. MGTOW is about men recognizing that the current form and direction of dependent relationships with women (especially marriage in western countries) no longer benefits them, and making the choice to avoid those relationships since they now only mostly benefit women.[]
MGTOW is not "misogynistic" it's just men going their own way. Is feminism listed as "misandristic"? A movement isn't misogynistic, individuals are. Wikipedia is making a blanket statement based on individual behaviours. RP ad2022 (talk) 18:55, 6 October 2022 (UTC)[]
How is the section on Poilievre of historical relevance? He has no known involvement with the community and was unaware of the hidden tag that was likely added without his knowledge. This should be removed unless there is a clear connection between him (or his online content) and the community. 129.222.184.120 (talk) 01:42, 7 October 2022 (UTC)[]
The tags were on his own YouTube channel, as covered by reliable sources. It is not the role of the Wikipedia to prove a negative for you. Zaathras (talk) 01:59, 7 October 2022 (UTC)[]
