There's this tenacious idea that in an unequal society, those at the top are the winners. That is, if you manage to avoid oppression, and if you manage to do the oppressing yourself, then you've got yourself a good life.
I'm a white man in an affluent country, and I'm here to tell you why that's bullshit.

Whatever happened to #masculinity? Men used to wear breaches and periwigs and now people yearn for the era of Grey flannel suits. We don't even want to be peacocks anymore 😪
"Violence is an overwhelmingly male endeavor. Is there any way to fix that? ...
As we talk about the 'boy crisis' and crises of masculinity and the rise of the reactionary male right – not to mention the politics and meaning of gender itself – it behooves us to understand why violence is such a male endeavor, and what we might be able to do to lessen it."
~ Jill Filipovic

"They’re not killed by women in the workforce, or by not cleaning their rooms, or by people pointing out that toxic masculinity exists, or by trans people, or by Democrats who dare to point out that Gavin Newsom sucks. They’re killed by guns."

After several heinous and highly publicized mass shootings predictably done by — you guessed it: men — Noah Berlatsky responds to the never-ending "boys are at risk" and "masculinity is under siege" folderol by noting:
"Men aren't lonely. they just have guns.
Men are not killed by feminism. They’re not killed by femininity."

As a humorous riff off of the very Millennial buzzword "metrosexual", I wrote in my diary in 2022 that I was "Aragornsexual". A silly joke, but I haven’t stopped thinking about it since! Kicking off a series on my struggle with Performative #Masculinity https://jaredwhite.com/articles/aragornsexual
As a humorous riff off of the very Millennial buzzword "metrosexual", I wrote in my diary in 2022 that I was "Aragornsexual". Because of course.
And although it’s a silly joke, I haven’t been able to stop thinking about it since.
Herein lies the first installment in my new series on the lifelong struggle with Performative #Masculinity and the storied images of manhood in pop culture past and present.
"Save Our Kids" obviously doesn't cover White Boys, almost like it's an excuse to harass The Other, and they don't care much for the victims, they're just a prop.
Not a single 'activist', nobody calling for a Race War online.....

Paul Doyle was a violent POS and this wasn't his first offence.

The manosphere is no longer a fringe online phenomenon.
As a networked ecosystem of digital masculinity movements, it increasingly shapes cultural attitudes toward gender, power, and identity — with real-world consequences.
Understanding how it works matters.
The manosphere isn’t a sudden radical turn — it’s a gradual pull.
Self-improvement content slowly becomes grievance, resentment, and rigid identity. Algorithms reward escalation, not reflection.
Understanding this pipeline matters if we care about boys, men, and the future of online culture.

Imagine announcing to the world that women are not safe when you are around, that you cannot control yourself when 'feeemales' are near, and that's their fault.
My personal rules are in lifts are "don't fart or make eye contact", not weird shit like "don't you bitches get in an elevator with me and my dick!"

They don't mention the ethnicity of this guy because bollock headed white men going berserk on public transport is the norm, not a newsworthy exception.
