16. Beyond the Algorithm: Healing the Wound in Modern Masculinity

When no one teaches men what love really is — the internet will...

In this powerful yet concise reflection, Henrik reads a real email titled “How to Manipulate Women to Get What You Want” — a disturbing glimpse into what young men are being taught online every day.
But beneath the noise lies something deeper: a generational wound, passed from father to son, from culture to child.

And it’s not just men.
On the other side of the algorithm, women are being sold a different illusion — the rise of the “tradwife”, preaching submission and silence as the path to love.
Both stories grow from the same root: fear.
Fear of not being enough. Fear of not being safe. Fear of being seen.

This episode isn’t about blame - it’s about awareness.
Because if we, as adults, stay silent, algorithms will raise our sons. Porn will shape their desires.
And the line between play and violation, between pleasure and power, will vanish before they even turn twelve.

Real masculinity isn’t about control - it’s about safety.
Love doesn’t need hierarchy. It needs honesty.
Presence heals what performance never can.
