Not really. This is more organized misogyny than voluntary celibacy. If you take a look at their forums, they are more concerned with criticism of women and feminism than celibacy.
- dragonwriter 11y ago> This is more organized misogyny than voluntary celibacy. Voluntarily celibacy and, especially, voluntary complete isolation from women have often been sold by organized groups with justifications that incorporate misogyny, so "organized misogyny" and "voluntary celibacy", while distinct, aren't completely independent. So, I don't think MGOTW is, even to the extent that it combines these things, particularly novel.
- lambda 11y agoYou're right, I don't think that it's particularly novel. Just that it seems the misogyny aspect of "MGOTW" is more important than the celibacy aspect.
