You've just eliminated roughly 100% of the human population from the possibility of being your friend. Of course you're lonely.

I've even heard that loneliness isn't exclusively a male problem, but I don't see women rights groups building a supremacist ideology out of it. -

If the world were honest it would be:
"The Male Asshole Crisis"
and it would have a simple solution:
don't be one!
Which would be a great idea--if assholes knew they *were* assholes. But, sadly, they do not. No...they firmly believe *everyone else* are the assholes.
And I don't know how to fix that, sorry.

As far as I can fathom, it's a social media myth. Any differences between genders are slight either way, or non-existent as far as I've seen. The biggest differences seem to be between age groups, with older people generally being less lonely.
"About one-in-six Americans (16%) say they feel lonely or isolated from those around them all or most of the time – including roughly equal shares of men and women. About four-in-ten adults (38%) say they sometimes feel lonely, and 47% say they hardly ever or never do.
While experiences with loneliness don’t differ much by gender, they do differ significantly by age.
Adults younger than 50 are much more likely than those ages 50 and older to say they often feel lonely (22% vs. 9%). Across age groups, adults 65 and older are the most likely to say they hardly ever or never feel this way (66%)."

@TheZeldaZone these podcasts are the result, not the source of the loneliness.

@TheZeldaZone I'm baffled by men who are sexually attracted to women but otherwise don't want anything to do with them. Do things with/around women! Why not have women friends? Men are boring!

@dryak @zompus @TheZeldaZone Hold on, someone said that doing stuff with women was gay? They have desperately misunderstood what sexuality is. They probably think it's fishing or football or shooting things with guns you carry around in a rack in your truck.

@TheZeldaZone Ya know, now that I’ve finally heard someone articulate it in this way IT MAKES TOTAL SENSE!!!
thank you !🩷 Now to go use this argument for every idiot who spouts this nonsense. And yes, I empathize… if you’re lonely, sure, that’s what you’re feeling, I’m not going to argue against your feelings, but you now have tools to understand why you’re lonely and how to fix it! 🩷 (Because that’s no way to live (not the “lonely” part, but the whole viewpoint mentioned)) -

@TheZeldaZone The formula that explains all of this is simple. Ads work better on gullible people. One finds gullible people by creating content that normal people reject, but gullible people don't. Serve ads on that content & profit. This toxic masculinity content, that for normal people is easy to see is nonsense, is just one of the many types specifically crafted to appeal to a critical thinking deficient audience that will click ads. This is the mainstream internet now.

I've been alone for 6 years, no friends, no girlfriends, but I don't listen to any of those podcasters to "inspire" me. Idk. I just find it boring watching some guys & gals talk about life and some other stuff on the screen. I just listen to old music
I really don't fucking understand this objectifying women narrative cos I learned that women are humans deserving of equal respect.
Now other males being rivals, now we're just going back to prehistoric times.

@StarkRG @dryak @TheZeldaZone Remember when people were so homophobic that they had to invent the word "meterosexual" to describe men who both washed their hair and wanted to date women

as the OP subject here is the manosphere's effect upon male loneliness (huge issue with gen a and z guys), shy and neurospicy guys who aren't part of *that* mess aren't the subject..Their loneliness issues are another conversation entirely.

@TheZeldaZone Which is exactly why the biggest loser billionaires the world has ever seen are now feverishly pursuing AI. They've burned all their human companionship bridges.

The only people are happy in this situation are the assholes who are making money off of all them. And those people have a twisted version of "happy".

@TheZeldaZone @waitworry in the past the male loneliness epidemic was driven by (some) men's closest female person they could talk to being their mother, and then replacing that person with their wives but no other emotional outlet, especially if their wife leaves or passes away
now they're being told their moms and potential girlfriends all suck too, so they have nobody

@dryak @zompus @TheZeldaZone I've seen the idea that eating (a woman's) pussy (as a man) is gay, there's no hope for straight men
like that's one of the most heterosexual activities that exists
