For starters, anybody using incel as an insult on men, isn't our friend. So I already this dude is a Menlib.

I’m going to say it straight up. Movies like Obsession are part of a growing trend where male loneliness is automatically framed as dangerous, creepy, or evil. The issue isn’t just the villain himself. The issue is the message people attach to regular men watching it.

The internet keeps acting like any socially awkward or emotionally desperate man is one bad day away from becoming a psychopath. That’s where the misandry comes in. Male vulnerability is constantly rewritten as a threat instead of a human problem.

If a woman in a movie is obsessive, emotional, clingy, or unstable, people usually romanticize it or call it “complex.” But when a male character struggles with rejection or loneliness, suddenly everybody starts throwing around words like “incel,” “predator,” and “future abuser.”

That double standard is exactly why a lot of men are irritated with this movie discourse. It feels less like people are criticizing toxic behavior and more like they are mocking male emotional weakness itself.

And the worst part is that the internet now treats awkwardness like a moral crime. A man can literally just be lonely, isolated, inexperienced with women, and socially weird, and people immediately start psychoanalyzing him as dangerous.

That creates paranoia around normal male behavior. Men start feeling like they have to censor their emotions or hide their loneliness because society already assumes the worst about them.

I also think these conversations erase the reality that many men are emotionally neglected in real life. A lot of men grow up without support systems, without emotional guidance, and without people who genuinely care about their mental health. But instead of compassion, they get jokes and insults.

And no, before somebody twists my words, I’m not defending obsession, stalking, or controlling behavior. Obviously those things are wrong. My issue is with how quickly people expand those labels onto regular male struggles.

The movie itself is not the full problem. The online reaction is the bigger issue. Social media turned the film into another excuse to collectively dunk on lonely men.

You can already see it in the memes. People aren’t separating dangerous men from awkward men anymore. Everything gets merged together into one giant “incel” stereotype.

That type of rhetoric eventually creates social alienation. When men feel constantly demonized for normal emotions, they either emotionally shut down or become resentful. Neither outcome is healthy for society.

Ironically, the same people claiming to care about mental health often show zero empathy once the struggling person is male. That contradiction is why so many men reject these conversations completely.

At the end of the day, Obsession could have been a nuanced discussion about loneliness, boundaries, and emotional instability. Instead, a lot of the discourse around it just became another round of “men bad” commentary disguised as social analysis.
