Why is the manosphere going crazy for pilates girls?
About this episode
We’ve talked about the rise of masculinism in the past on Do You Really Know and today’s subject is linked to the kind of traditional narratives that misogynistic men like to support.
You know the type of views I mean: men are supposed to be strong, authoritative and physically imposing. Women, on the other hand, are expected to be gentle, compliant and ideally, not too independent.
Since when do people choose their partners based on their exercise regime? How do pilates girls feel about being objectified in such a creepy way? In under 3 minutes, we answer your questions!
