This wikipedia's formal description of MGTOW. I picked this article due to the vast spectrum of opinions listed.

I'll save you some reading and explain the reception. Numerous organizations and public figures view the "movement" as "militant" and "woman hating". They portray us all as incels with a warpped perception of reality. They think the ultimate goal is to eliminate contact with women.

I won't sit here and tell you to fight against this or correct them. That would be an enormous waste of anyone's time. Understand that based on shaky research and a label, they have presumed your worth as a person. Who else exhibits this type of behavior? Racists, bigots, psychopaths, sociopaths, etc.

Frame this correctly when you want to react to it. Would you waste your time explaining to an idiot who has made up their mind that the earth is 3000 years old, that it's actually billions of years old? This is the same thing. You can't force society to not be ignorant.

Don't bother justifying your beliefs to anyone stupid enough to argue without a valid argument to stand on. To be frank, I wouldn't even bring it up in conversation.

Secondly, understand the frame of mind they are in. What has Western society indoctrinated into men and women? That men are expendable and only worth what they can financially produce. Going against this narrative removes power from purple/blue pilled men and women. It threatens them that you ARE better off than them due to not having to deal with the overhead of marriage and dating. Humans have an inate desire to see others fail because success of another devalues the self worth.

For example: I am in my late 20's. Single, dog, paid off house, paid off cars, no debt, college educated, high paying corporate job, no strings or overhead. I still occasionally date, but keep my distance. My male, blue pill friends only share the college education and corporate job experience with me. Their lives have gotten progressively more restricted in terms of finances and just time to do hobbies in general. The fact that I can go out any night of the week to a concert, a show, or even a mini vacation frustrates them. It legitimately bothers them that they do not possess the same freedom and capabilities due to a series of poor life decisions that lead them to be married and having kids. So now they only hang out with other couples who are married and have kids. Because now, they longer have access to their true passions. They have settled for a sedentary and pathetic lifestyle and they want you to suffer too.

If you gain nothing else from reading this, please remember: YOUR FREEDOM IS SEEN AS A THREAT TO THEIR SELF WORTH AND THEY WANT YOU TO SUFFER AS THEY DO FOR THEIR POOR CHOICES.

In closing, disregard society's outlook on you. The reason you took the red pill in the first place is because society is the one that is in dire chaos. Your life is stoic and together. And as long as you continue to progress at your personal goals, the work speaks for itself. Success speaks louder than a million baseless opinions and as long as you stay pilled, success, knowledge, and experiences are things the world can never take away from you. And ultimately, those are what define a strong, rational man. Have a good life, friends.

I hope this helped some of you.
