Welcome! It's the first episode of Manosphere: Debunked, so we're starting with an attempt to answer a central question: "What even is the manosphere?" Along the way, we ask various other questions, including "Do men going their own way still talk to their mums?" and "Was everything fine for men before pesky old feminism came along??"

Manosphere: Debunked is hosted by Aileen Barratt (@tindertranslators) and Dan, the anonymous psychologist (@the_nice_ish_psychologist), on Instagram.

Aileen's book, Tinder Translator: An A-Z of Modern Misogyny, is available here.
