Deep dives

Understanding the Manosphere

The manosphere refers to an online subculture focused on men's issues, which has gained traction in recent years. It is built upon varying perspectives that encourage men to engage with societal challenges, including perceived tensions between men and women. A foundational text for this movement is 'The Rational Male' by Rolo Tomasi, who discusses sexual dynamics and offers psychological advice to men on dating behaviors. Key concepts include the notion of 'one-itis,' which critiques the unhealthy fixation some men have on a single romantic partner, emphasizing the importance of self-worth and identity beyond relationships.
