I think there's some important overlap, in that both groups seem to have an absolutist story plus a depersonalizing policy towards a different gender.

However there's a pretty stark difference between how their narratives begin:

1. "My isolation is unjust, from bad people attempting to hurt me."

2. "My isolation is justified way to make bad people feel hurt."

Combine those two confrontational stories with a male/female split, and you get four quadrants.

No, not at all like incels or MGTOW. When women do it it's stunning and brave. It's a protest for what's right.

When men do it it's cowardly and needy, a result of being so unworthy that no reasonable person would want to be around them.

Except for the "involuntary" part, yes. But that's a pretty big difference...
