The '''Manhatingzone''' is a faction of radical feminist trolls who have been active on OWOT since its inception in 2017, and supposedly even before that in the 2010 version of OWOT. The group is almost completely anonymous and functions as a hivemind, with their activities ranging from fighting spam to arguing with users at Spawn.
The '''Man Hating Zone''' was a faction of radical feminist trolls who have existed in YWOT since the early 2010s, and who took up a presence in OWOT around March 2021. The group is almost completely anonymous and functions as a hivemind, with their activities ranging from fighting spam to arguing with users at Spawn.


The MHZ is primarily known for writing a truly horrific amount of grotesque fanfictions, most of which are pornographic, incestuous, zoophilic and/or pedophilic in nature. And because many of these stories involve real (often underage) OWOT users, the MHZ is the subject of heavy controversy.

Throughout the early 2020s the MHZ have created multiple large-scaled worlds within OWOT. The most notable of these are [https://ourworldoftext.com/mhz /mhz], which hosts their fanfics and [[art]], and [https://ourworldoftext.com/owotd /OWOTD], where they write down their opinions about the OWOT [https://ourworldoftext.com/permavirgin userbase].

As of 2024 the Manhatingzone is largely dormant, but some parts of their worlds still receive regular updates to this day.
The Man Hating Zone became inactive in mid to late 2024.


Members of the Manhatingzone are commonly known as "'''MHZers'''" or "'''Hivettes'''."

'''- Message from [[Your World of Text]]'''</blockquote>The Manhatingzone had existed on Your World of Text long before the creation of its sister website. [[Mr.Guy]], a veteran YWOT user, theorized that they originated from the writings of a single user before growing into an entire faction with multiple leaders. Mr.Guy recounts that they began as a mostly private community before making a presence on the YWOT Mainpage(''writing the same deranged copypastas that they wrote in the 2020s'').

On their part, the MHZ claims to have existed since the creation of Your World of Text in 2009. This has not been verified, but Mr.Guy attests that they have been an active organization long before the [https://yourworldoftext.wiki/Summer_of_2015 2015 Mainpage Wipe]. Roughly supporting this, the oldest piece of information on /OWOTD refers to a glitch from 2010. /OWOTD also references an "''OWOT without colors,''" likely the 2010 version of Our World of Text by [[Andrew Badr]].

The MHZ has had a presence on the modern OWOT seemingly since its conception, but the faction was not mentioned on the [[OWOT Discord|Discord]] until March of 2021. It is likely that the [https://yourworldoftext.wiki/Brazilpocalypse 2020 YWOT Lockdown] played a role in the increase of Manhatingzone activity on Our World of Text. Around this time the MHZ created several large-scaled worlds and garnered a controversial reputation for writing erotica of underage users. They became involved in multiple conflicts, most notably against an invasion by 4chan's /mlp/ board. The various feuds of this era, along with the MHZ's opinions on the userbase at the time, have all been documented in /OWOTD.  
The MHZ was not mentioned on the [[OWOT Discord]] until March of 2021. It is likely that the [https://yourworldoftext.wiki/Brazilpocalypse 2020 YWOT Lockdown] drove them to migrate to OWOT en masse.

2022 appeared to have been the most active year for MHZer activity in recent times. The first half of that year saw them making a brief return to Your World of Text, where they could frequently be seen making crude jokes near Spawn, all while creating the odd ASCII art here and there. Most of the writings and art from this era have now been immortalized in /mhz.

At that time there still seemed to be a few active members left, since parts of /mhz would continue to receive updates up until its final closure in April of 2025. As of 2025 the faction is believed to have left the site, though a few MHZ adjacent anons can still be seen in [[chat]] from time to time.

Several of the worlds in this section were created by [[Foam]], who is not explicitly proven to be a MHZer herself, but was at least respected by the MHZ.
 
=== /Feminism ===
[https://ourworldoftext.com/feminism /Feminism] is a world that contains a couple of MHZ-style writings. [https://ourworldoftext.com/feminist /Feminist] redirects to this page.
 
The world was created on March 28th, 2019.

/mhz goes from public to private on random months for construction.  
/mhz was likely created around March of 2021, alongside the first major surge of MHZ activity in OWOT. An anon from that time (''who was possibly a MHZer themselves'') claimed that the Man Hating Zone manually transferred all the content from their YWOT world [http://yourworldoftext.com/~manhatingzone /~manhatingzone] to this page. /~manhatingzone has been privated since the early 2020s at the latest.
 
/mhz goes from public to private on random months for construction. On one occasion it was also privated to prevent users from advertising it at Spawn, since the MHZ didn't want their world to receive unnecessary attention. The page was closed indefinitely starting from April 2025.
 
From 2022 to 2024 the world was entirely member-only with only a few public spaces here and there. By 2025 this had been changed so that only community-created content was protected, while all other areas were open to public edits.<ref>Honestly idr if this was true.

As is, however, /OWOTD is used almost exclusively by the MHZ as a propaganda platform.
[https://ourworldoftext.com/WomanHatingZone /WomanHatingZone] and [https://ourworldoftext.com/whz /whz] are both private. It is unknown whether they are owned by the MHZ or by someone trying to spite them.


Just like /mhz, /OWOTD is split into multiple subsections, including a zone for copypastas about OWOT users and another area for user charts.
On an unrelated note, the MHZ does seem own [https://www.yourworldoftext.com/~womanhatingzone /~womanhatingzone] on YWOT.

* [https://ourworldoftext.com/AltM /AltM]: A world created on September 30th of 2021 as an art-centric alternative to the spam-filled [[/|mainpage]]. It preceded OWOT's official art world [[/main]], a world which most MHZers have shown a vitriolic hatred towards. Altmain users are referred to as "Altmainers" or "semi-hivettes," since most of them aren't "formal" members of the MHZ<ref>If that's even a thing</ref>.

# ''"OK once I was invited to Andrei's home and he didn't offer me any food. When he was hungry he told me to wait in his room while he went to the pantry, and 20 minutes later he came back he informed me he had eaten the last of the cereal, and if I was still hungry I should go home."''

# ''"once in gym class he walked up behind me and grabbed my balls and squeezed them so hard it left his palm imprinted on my sack and i couldn't even walk right for two weeks afterwards and when i complained about it to him he said 'yeah, i guess that might hurt a little' and that really helped'"''

In defense of their actions, MHZ members have pointed out that all of their (''pedophilic and zoophilic'') fan fictions were ironic in nature and not meant to be taken seriously; and not only have they refrained from spamming, but they actively fought spam and tried to protect art whenever they could. Needless to say, most users found these justifications insufficient for the sheer immorality of certain fanfics; though the MHZ is certainly an anomaly for being perhaps the only troll group who actually wants to make the site a ''better'' place.

As a whole, much of the OWOT community is disturbed by the Manhatingzone, with most electing to simply ignore them. Andrei has historically expressed frustration over FP's refusal to take action against the MHZ.

On their part, the MHZ has shown some amount of dislike towards most members of the community, especially admins and those who frequent the [[OWOT Discord]].<gallery widths="230" heights="130">

It is unknown how the MHZ recruits new members, or if this is done at all.

The only named members that we know of are Foam and (potentially) Meimei.
Several named users are suspected to be MHZers. These are all speculations, however, and there are numerous [[Anon|anons]] who act similar to the MHZ but don't belong to the faction.


=== Foam ===
=== Foam ===
Owner of /OWOTD and the only active MHZer with a distinct identity outside of the Hivemind.
<blockquote>''salt: 9990 i have a qesution''
 
''[9990]: yes dear''
 
''salt: is owotdrama like mhz secondary world''
 
''[9990]: nope, but foam seems to like us''
 
''salt: who is foam''
 
''[9990]: the owner of owotd''</blockquote>Owner of /OWOTD, a world populated in large part by MHZers.


[[Foam]] was known for making colored unicode art, which can be found in large quantities on [https://ourworldoftext.com/foam her userpage] and [https://ourworldoftext.com/altm /AltM].[[File:Mankiller.png|thumb|299x299px|"''Mankiller''" by Meimei]]

Meimei was reportedly kicked out of the Hivemind for unknown reasons. It is unclear what role they played within the MHZ prior to being expelled, assuming that they were a MHZer at all and not just a fangirl. Currently, the only traces of them that remain in the OWOT /mhz world are a few drawings at X:444 Y:444.

She was also criticized on /OWOTD, p by another MHZ member, as one of the users who pretended to support [[Theawesomepikachu20|Tap20]] all while being friends with the users responsible for harassing him.
Meimei became active on YWOT in early 2022, coinciding with a brief surge in MHZ activity. <gallery widths="240" heights="100">

* As seen from the 2022 screenshot of /mhz by [[Cv]], "''Big Black Cthulhu Cock''" used to be white(''or yellow, depending on how you look at it'').  
* There is [[Russian image board worlds|another group of female users]] that's known for writing massive amounts of homoerotic fanfics in hidden worlds. Unlike the MHZ they are still active to this day, though they write exclusively in Russian and do not interact with the community outside of their dedicated pages.
