Men going their own way: the toxic male separatist movement that is now mainstream

The men of the MGTOW movement aim to live their lives with no female contact. The idea began on the fringes of the internet - so how has it made it all the way to the White House?

There has been an awakening ... changing the world ... one man at a time." These are the dramatic words that appear when you visit mgtow.com. In a video that looks a lot like an action-movie trailer, the words are soon followed by five more that appear to smash through the screen, smouldering fiery red: Men ... going ... their ... own way."

If you stumbled across this website and had never heard of men going their own way" (MGTOW) before, you would probably assume this was a tiny, extreme movement. But you would be only half right.
