Is the manosphere growing in Kenya and Mexico?
Inside the world of Andrew Kibe and El Temach.
Influencers like Andrew Tate popularised the so-called manosphere 鈥� the network of websites, forums and social media influencers that promote "traditional" masculinity. In their thinking, men hold a dominant role in a relationship and women are subservient.
91福利社 World Service Disinformation reporter Jacqui Wakefield recently spent a year following El Temach and Andrew Kibe 鈥� two of the most influential manosphere figures in Latin America and Africa 鈥� for her 91福利社 Africa Eye documentary Manosphere Messiahs. She explains why their message resonates with so many young men, the consequences that can have on women and how manosphere content is driving men and women apart.
