Lamoureux writes that MGTOWs have "a serious problem with feminism". Barb MacQuarrie, Community Director at Centre for Research & Education on Violence against Women & Children at University of Western Ontario, said, MGTOW advocates "have no real ability to identify the global forces that are at work in their life, so they hang the blame on feminists", and show "a complete lack of self-reflection", in the end "reinforcing each other's really distorted perceptions of what's happening in the world".[1][2]
