yes, it's almost impossible to have a good conversation with many men.
one where you all laugh


Hmmmm…. I usually keep out of the “men’s room” but a comment made I will address, that I’m taking on face value…. See next reply pane.

How about we start over with an AI definition of what the "manospherre" is:


The manosphere is an umbrella term for a collection of online communities, websites, and social media spaces that focus on men, masculinity, and gender relations, often promoting anti-feminist and misogynistic views

.According to organizations like the eSafety Commissioner, these digital spaces frequently push rigid, aggressive definitions of manhood and claim that gender equality harms men's rights.

Key Subgroups within the Manosphere

Incels (Involuntary Celibates): Communities of individuals who blame women and society for their lack of romantic or sexual success.

Men's Rights Activists (MRAs): Groups that argue societal systems and legal frameworks are biased against men.

Pick-Up Artists (PUAs): Networks focused on learning manipulative tactics and strategies to seduce women.

Men Going Their Own Way (MGTOW): Communities advocating that men completely separate themselves from romantic relationships with women.

Common Concepts and Language

Alpha vs. Beta: Pseudoscientific hierarchies used to categorize men, where "alpha" implies dominant control and "beta" is used as an insult for emotional or submissive behavior.

Red Pill: A metaphor borrowed from The Matrix indicating an awakening to the supposed "truth" that society and the legal system favor women over men.

Impact and Reach

Many young men and boys initially encounter these networks while searching for positive self-improvement, fitness, or financial advice. However, algorithmic amplification on platforms like TikTok and YouTube often exposes them to radicalizing, hostile ideologies that devalue women and negatively impact mental health.


Sounds excactly like radical feminism to me.  Roll Eyes


Sounds like an explanation is needed as to why some or many females had to be or has to be radical for change to happen …. Yet we are still a long way from real equal acceptance.
What alerted me as what looks like steps going backwards are being taken, by certain groups of males, was when I was watching MAFS. This one dude and his all male members of family and friends was very reminiscent of some of these ideologies below. (Tyson Gordon ex military)


Radical groups run or dominated by men often intersect with violent extremism, male supremacy, and far-right ideologies.Types of Male-Dominated Radical GroupsMale Supremacist and Misogynistic Groups: These networks—including certain online subcultures and involuntary celibate (incel) communities—promote rigid gender roles, view women as inferior or hostile, and sometimes normalize or encourage violence against women.Far-Right and White Nationalist Movements: Organizations such as neo-Nazi cells, accelerationist groups (e.g., The Base), and white supremacist militias are overwhelmingly male. They often use ideas of aggrieved or lost masculinity to recruit members through a promise of restoring social hierarchy or status.Violent Extremist and Terrorist Networks: Many global and domestic militant organizations feature hierarchical leadership structures operated by men, utilizing appeals to camaraderie, duty, and hyper-masculinity to draw in vulnerable recruits.Common Recruitment and Radicalization TacticsOnline Grooming: Groups exploit digital spaces, gaming platforms, and social media feeds to target isolated or insecure young men.Exploiting Real Grievances: Organizers often hook individuals by acknowledging real challenges—such as mental health struggles, economic isolation, or loneliness—only to redirect those frustrations into blame, hate speech, and misogyny.Promoting Rigid Stereotypes: Recruitment relies heavily on enforcing narrow definitions of manhood that reject vulnerability and demand the exertion of power and control.

The usual reaching for the extremes when most are in the middle - on the other hand Feminazification of the Reich is more than well under way.... and women are killing their children and their husbands and getting a wrist slap......

Not to worry - all that fantastic science dredged up from their Mindless Primitive sides will develop full artificial breeding for them ..

.....the first Terminator women were easy to spot... rubber skin, rubber souls, and rubbery thinking... we spotted them easy... the later versions - the Cyberdyne series III with the integrated mind and heart chip - human flesh over metallic heart and mind .. were much harder... it took the dogs to sniff them out... now we've got the 007 models - licenced to murder their families without punishment..... all operating under the cover of Big Government living in Fantasyland ....

The Media of Music and Entertainment here and in the USA are
Alpha female (Takers of the future) and
Beta males (Keepers of the past).
...basically FEMALE industry.
The difference between the two is that the USA is youth orientated, obsessed with the latest new young thing. Also SEX obsessed.
Australia's industry is OLD orientated. So the old farts will get the priority over a new act.
MONEY obsessed.

Both, especially through the males, think being a musician & entertainer, means they know what is politically best for us.
But with Lefties like them and their narrative in politics, you now know where the saying "All politicians are liars" comes from. Wink

Such groups are a very small example of men in general, yet all men are demonised by the 'feminists' while at the same time they are silent on the Muslim religion, which has very similar tenets to those 'manosphere' groups above and is far more widespread.  Why no outrage here? Is it because the progressive feminist left has found itself so connected politically to Islam it is unable to criticise it?

You didn't just admit to watching that BS let alone referencing it did you?

As to the signs or should I say symptoms that lead to these younger men being of the mentality you have listed - ask yourself why that is?

Like they are acting from a time well past.

It's because of rabid feminism - not feminism of the suffragettes - but todays feminazis - branding young males as lesser because they are laden with male toxicity - that they should be guilty for being who they are..... young men.

They are the result of the femosphere.

From what I gather from a cursory glance around the internetz, 'manosphere' is largely a push-back against the relentless guilting and slagging off of men.

It's largely a resistance to endless propaganda against men by outlets like the Granuiad and the universities via the Conversation and a phalanx of Commissioner and Envoy Ladies. The recent hysteria about 'rape epidemics' at universities is an example of the outlandodish vilifications directed at men.

Catherine Deneuve and a hundred other women called it out almost a decade ago. The response by the furies was, still is, telling.
