maybe, but none of the young men I know actually get that content on their FYP (and I say that meaning the many IRL young men ik as well as when I was at Teen Vogue for 5 yrs pre 2026)

Yeah, which means it isn't the fault of the Internet feminists anymore than modern transphobia is the fault of the random queer people LibsofTikTok harvests for her perpetual Two Minute Hate posts.

What are these TikTok feminists outside of a drawn out stereotype and what do they have to do with this conversation…? When I think about my brother he wasn’t exposed to left leaning content of any kind because the algorithm doesn’t gain anything from that.

And young men are exposed to them through social media engagement instead of real life?

Racist, sexist, and self-victimizing in one paragraph, honestly pretty impressive showing for the man baby Olympics.

Mmmmmmmhm

My mom forcing me to be open with her about my emotions when I was a stupid sulky teenager did more to help me become a functional adult than pretty much every older man in my life.

"Sit still, be a pleaser, raise your hand. You just described the activities that come more easily to a girl. Even push a pencil around, ask questions." Right. It's not like this has been school since forever. So why is it now that this is suddenly a problem?

Oh god, it's a Douthat interview. "Isn't the greatest threat to young men's self esteem chunky Reese Witherspoon?"

Galloway has an opinion on everything. Especially in domains where he has absolutely no expertise. Stop putting a microphone in front of him.

A friend who's the mother of two boys asked me for my opinion on how to raise them to be good men, since she thought that as a trans woman I'd have an interesting perspective. My advice was "hold them to the same standards you would a daughter".

He actually goes on to say: "And quite frankly, what’s the solution for young men from the left? Act more like a woman — and I don’t think that’s helpful, either." Unreal.
