The Manosphere Doesn’t Even Believe Itself - Video

I watched Netflix’s *Louis Theroux: Inside the Manosphere*, and honestly? I did not come out of it feeling great.

Not because the topic isn’t important. It is. And not because the documentary failed to show these men saying wild, horrifying, deeply unserious things on camera. It absolutely did.

But the more I watched, the more I felt like the documentary accidentally revealed something bigger: a lot of these manosphere guys are not strong men with deep beliefs. They’re performers. They’re salesmen. They’re insecure men selling confidence, control, and “masculinity” to people who are still trying to figure out who they are.

So in Part 1, I’m talking through the five biggest things this documentary revealed to me: the grift, the performance, the fragility, the power, and the fact that boys are watching.

Part 2 is coming next, because I still need to talk about why the ending of the documentary left me feeling hopeless instead of activated.
