Yes please, make it even easier to detect manosphere guys

[-] godsammitdam@lemmy.zip 3 points 7 hours ago

So Asmongold is peak manosphere?

Yeah, that tracks, uneducated bigot paid off by Israel using their exact talking points and has no original thoughts of his own.

Please, other men out there, teach your fellows what "masculinity" should be. Emotionally available and strong, using your strength to help others around you, protecting others less fortunate than yourself. What is the point of the privilege you lucked into if not to use it to help lift others up who aren't as privileged? And also learn to be strong and supportive. You have a lot of sway in everyday life over others. Learn to stand back and let others lead, learn to amplify others voices and use your strength to support them.

We really fucked up letting this whole machismo bs run rampant, making so many men, myself included, feel like we're failures if we're not uber successful in a broken capitalist system.

Another example of how the manosphere is actually a way to confuse young men without dating experience into making themselves less attractive, so their resentment toward women who dont accept them despite "doing all the rigjt things" can be politically weaponized to reorient these men into fascist social reality

This was pretty common with women when I was in university. They said deodorant causes breast cancer so that's why they don't shower or shave.

Also the sweat needs to be kinda fresh

[-] daggermoon@piefed.world 18 points 18 hours ago

Please do this. I might actually have a shot if i'm the only good smelling guy around.

[-] Gonzako@lemmy.world 3 points 14 hours ago

They looking for violet lol

[-] queermunist@lemmy.ml 21 points 20 hours ago

This is, once again, an instance of some women having a fetish and then the manosphere trying to project this onto all women.

They are not capable of understanding that different women are different, they really believe that all women are the same and that if they have the right cheat codes they can make women do whatever they want. Women are not people to them.

[-] captainlezbian@lemmy.world 4 points 7 hours ago

Yeah being into post workout or "hasn't showered yet today" smell is honestly kinda common, especially on someone you already are into and like the smell of. Not showering at all or letting it keep going is however a rare variant, and even the common version is by no means universal.

And speaking as someone repulsed by testosteronized bo, please keep the post workout smell to those who've requested it

[-] adespoton@lemmy.ca 48 points 23 hours ago

Seems like good advice.

It lets women know which men are listening to these influencers.

Also: pheromones? Why does that continue to get airtime each generation? The organ that processes pheromones in most mammals isn’t functional in humans, and most people cover the inside of their noses with so much artificial scent that they can’t smell anything subtle anyway. So all you get from that is the stink of bacterial byproducts.

I think the main issue is that there's no such thing as human pheromones... so whether we might be able to perceive them if they existed is entirely academic.

We are however capable of smelling body odours, and some of them are linked to sexual attraction or mate suitability and only appear after puberty.

[-] darkwing_duck@sh.itjust.works 14 points 23 hours ago

My wife says my sweaty body is attractive to her. I dunno, there may be some truth to this.

Old stale sweat is a no go of course.

[-] TranscendentalEmpire@lemmy.today 19 points 21 hours ago

Nah, the key word is "my". If she was actually sensitive to pheromones she would be attracted to the smell of all sweating men.

[-] Quokka@quokk.au 6 points 20 hours ago

I am certainly attracted to the smell of sweaty (clean) women, and even myself since transitioning. Women sweat is like ooof.

[-] TranscendentalEmpire@lemmy.today 8 points 12 hours ago

You can like a smell without pheromones being involved, more than likely it's just associative.

Aka The Motley Crue method

[-] Today@lemmy.world 25 points 22 hours ago

When my son was in college i told him, "Girls don't kiss boys who don't shower."

His response- "The girls I like do."

Ewwww.

[-] dharmacurious@slrpnk.net 11 points 22 hours ago
[-] Today@lemmy.world 7 points 14 hours ago

Showers regularly. Single. 🤷

[-] VirtigoMommy@sh.itjust.works 7 points 17 hours ago

Still hasn’t washed that first one off

It's a classic!

I can tell you from first hand knowledge, that does not work, not one bit.

[-] skeezix@lemmy.world 16 points 23 hours ago

Youre not ripe enough yet. Give it another week

[-] ChicoSuave@lemmy.world 12 points 22 hours ago

It doesn't attract women but it does isolate men, which is what the manosphere is about. Because why would anyone look for women in a place called "the manosphere"?

[-] EvergreenGuru@lemmy.world 12 points 23 hours ago

Once you stop wiping your ass and start drinking your own piss, you should start stinking in no time. The women will be smelling you for miles. 👃

Depression maxing?

[-] rhythmisaprancer@quokk.au 9 points 22 hours ago

I don't know about the "manosphere," but I wouldn't be interested in a man, or woman, who smelled. I work in an outside hard-working job, it isn't that hard to shower and clean clothes. Except on overnight jobs, but then we all smell. Most folks are not looking for dates then. Nobody I am around would be, but maybe i am too old or just fortunate.
