Controversial influencer Andrew Tate made headlines recently when he was arrested by Romanian police as part of a human trafficking and rape investigation. The 30-year-old former kickboxer rose to prominence through his misogynistic content.
Tate is known as one of the prominent faces of the ‘manosphere’. The manosphere is a wide range of content aimed at men.
While some influencers, blogs, websites and forums in the manosphere are focused on subjects such as fitness, fashion, faith and relationship advice for men - there are problematic aspects of it. The dark side of the manosphere includes content that promotes misogyny and is staunchly anti-feminist.
