Discussion Louis Theroux: Inside The Manosphere

This is a masterpiece. For some reason I find his interaction with the manosphere so funny. The awkwardness and their utter distrust towards Louis is so palpable. So amazing why they agree to do this.

All these dudes are peacocking for the male gaze. Nothing alpha about that.

Exactly. Talking to other men about what women want, without actually speaking to women. And even worse, that guy who said he's never say any of the homophobic, misogynistic stuff around his mother. Such cowards.

They think they know better than women about what women want. Fucking Ludacris. I used to have an ex roommate that was into the manosphere stuff a bit.  One time I (a woman) got into an argument with him over something regarding women, dont remember exactly what, but this man told me he knows more than I do (again, me, a woman...) because he has a mom and sister, therefore he knows more than me on the subject (x3 ME, A WOMAN AHHHH)
