“Manosphere”: the amplified violence that sells and governs us

Recent data highlights the severity of the phenomenon, with an Ipsos study revealing that 31% of Gen Z men believe wives should always obey their husbands, compared to 13% of men over 60. This generational reversal exposes a contradiction where young men claim to value successful women while simultaneously supporting female subordination. The digital space, particularly through the 'manosphere', has turned misogyny into a profitable business model, using verbal violence and humiliation as recruitment tools. This modernised misogyny thrives on the insecurities of young men, threatening democratic quality and economic progress. The author argues that addressing this requires more than just indignation; it demands a collective effort to promote new references and reject toxic masculinity.
