Quote from: RedHand88 on March 12, 2026, 08:17:57 PMNew Louis Theroux documentary is mental. It's a whole world I am oblivious to and I'm happy about that.

We've been having chats with jnr (15) re the influx of these ultimate males. Himself and his friends think the likes of Tate etc are arseholes. Hopefully this is the case, but thinking back as a young teen and the guff we'd tell our folks

I have a 4 year old and was thinking christ this is all ahead of me.
But I think most of them can see through it. There's just a minority who fall for it. There's 2 saps about halfway through the documentary who are completely sold by it. It was so cringe to watch.

Googled what the doc was about as I hadn't heard of it and my main question is: WTF is the manosphere

Real men, Alpha male types, or toxic masculinity to others.

The manosphere is real men? What exactly is a real man?

I was being sarcastic.

Evidently these lads are real men by telling their partners to go clean a room.

Sounds like you lads need a little bit more red pill thinking.

On a serious note is it a sign you're getting old when you start saying you haven't heard of these fellas. The only one I had seen before was that HS TikTok fella. I nearly think Louis gave them more advertising than anything. As someone said those fellas who seemed sucked in by these grifters was complete cringe.

I've seen the NY lad on one of the platforms before, clearly before he was banned. The others ive never heard of. It would have been great to get access to the likes of the Tates or Bilzerian.

Con men the lot of them.

We were watching it last night, the young lad 17, came in and watched a bit with us, he said one after another, muppet, another muppet and got up and left. I was happy enough with his response. Its lunacy the type of people they are.

There seems to be a lot of weird cubs out there in the "manosphere". Was reading about Looksmaxxing in the paper yesterday,and in particular a fella called Clavicular. What a bunch of weirdos.
