In the era of men like Andrew Tate and other Red Pill (and Black pill) advocates, there are men using tech to help women.
Rather than upskirting, sextortion, and offering buyable advice on how to sleep with women, gain power over them, lie to them, and cheat on them, these men are giving women power.
They are proponents that before men become a partner to a woman, he must do some introspection himself, and become a human. Learn about emotions. Have hobbies. Go to school, get employed. Become social. Learn about money. Become a philosopher. Do some charity and volunteer work. Learn to laugh. Become a pet parent.
For example, on Instagram, there is one Austrian nutritionist who has exploded on the platform. He does videos and reels informing followers with interesting science backed information pertaining to women’s reproductive health.
– fact that the health of the child is not extensively linked to the mother’s egg, age, and overall health, but the main component is that of the father’s sperm health and age.
Another man on Tiktok, from the USA, is using the app to help women feel safe on the trail,on public transit, or in other public spaces, when they are alone and feel like they have unwanted company. He actively encourages female followers to save his video and download it for later use.
With his voice loud, he has a script that resembles a phone call from a boyfriend or husband. He instructs women using it to turn the volume up loudly so that the predator will be deterred from progressing his behavior.
There were several comments from both women and fathers of daughters, who praised his thinking and genius use of the app. Even male police officers agreed it was a wonderful way to help women feel safer on the streets.
Another Tiktoker, in the USA as well, is a registered OBGYN nurse and LGBTQ ally. He does videos centred around women’s reproductive health and uses comedy to help lighten the subject matter. He is fascinated by all the weird things women experience both physically and socially and he’s always trying to learn more.
Bradley Thor, on Instagram, is another man who is followed mostly by males in the late teens to late twenties bracket (he’s in his mid thirties). He does content teaching survival tips in the wild – which includes using an axe and being shirtless. It garners a lot of thirst trap attention from women. He’s a feminist ally and has done several clips supporting it, berating other platform users for condoning antifeminist content and encouraging younger men to become Red or Black pill proponents.
Another fellow instagrammer, from France, Eros Bresson, started out as a chad, picking on women and making fun of them. Then two years ago, he switched sides and roasts men online at women’s pleasure. Eros laughs at all of the men’s stupidity. He’s even gained more followers and gained more attention in this move.
Some of them, on Facebook reels, explain the sophisticated way women have their monthly cycles. They give men an idea of what women are going through each phase, every month, and give them a checklist of ways to better help her through each phase. They reiterate that periods aren’t minor things to just get over and deal with, but a list of symptoms that women have no choice in dealing with.
They’re realizing that women- unrelated and unknown to them-have the same rights in living a life free from harassment and abuse from men. Sadly, these men often face criticism and even threats from other men, but it doesn’t stop them from posting more content.
Technology and social media combined have been both horror grounds and havens for women. As much as it can be the devil’s playground, I hope both of these modalities create communities where men support women and grow in numbers.
