Are Men Socialized To Cheat? (feat. blkgrlblkgrl)

1 hour 47 minutes

In this week’s episode of The Audaci-Tea Podcast, hosts Lisa and Sovereign are joined by special guest Sierra Thompson, also known as BLKGRLBLKGRL, for a sharp and necessary conversation about a controversial question.

Are men socialized to cheat?

Together, they unpack how patriarchal conditioning shapes male identity, how infidelity becomes normalized in male peer groups, and why women are often taught to endure betrayal rather than demand accountability. Sierra brings cultural analysis and social commentary to the discussion, exploring how insecurity, male validation seeking, and friend group hierarchies contribute to patterns of dishonesty and manipulation in relationships.

The conversation challenges the narrative that cheating is just biology or impulse and instead examines the social systems that excuse it, protect it, and even reward it.

But first, in Tea Time, Lisa and Sovereign react to influencer Shera Seven’s announcement about the passing of her husband, discuss the latest sexual misconduct scandal involving Rep. Tony Gonzales, respond to a viral “Make Men Great Again” campaign video, and break down headlines surrounding Prince Andrew. Later, they open the mailbag to answer a listener question about navigating harassment from conservative male customers in her workplace.

🎧 This episode takes a direct look at male socialization, accountability, and what it would actually take for relationship culture to change.

🎙️ Topics Discussed:

• Are men socially conditioned to normalize cheating?

• Male peer groups and the reinforcement of toxic masculinity

• Why women are taught to tolerate infidelity
