“Male Influencers like Prayag Mishra disprove a lot of what Andrew Tate believes are essential aspects to being a man and how to become successful, but confirm that the solution to a healthier version of masculinity relies on men being socialized to accept the parts of themselves that would be considered more feminine. Mishra’s rise to fame online included him embracing his femininity and portraying an identity across platforms that went against gender norms. He’s been able to have access to a similar status in life, has access to more women and earns a large income without losing softer aspects of his identity.”

… “Tate may have good intentions at improving this experience for men but as Antoinette Vogers mentions, a healthy sense of self requires the ability to have self worth outside of performances and her findings suggest that men need to be socialized in a way that promotes intrinsic value.”
