This study examines the portrayal of the manosphere in contemporary academic literature. The manosphere, a collection of male-oriented online communities, is often critiqued for its anti-feminist stance and perceived social dangers. Through a thematic analysis of 29 scholarly articles, this research identified three main themes: the manosphere as dangerous and evil, wrong and deluded, and emotionally reactive. The findings suggest that academic discourse predominantly frames the manosphere negatively, highlighting its potential threats to gender equality and societal norms. This study calls for a more balanced and objective approach in academic evaluations to avoid reinforcing social prejudices.

potential threats to gender equality and social norms

It's funny because the manosphere has no significant influence outside the internet. Unlike feminists that are in government, academia, and pop culture. But it's the manosphere that's influencing the youth. Ok
