Frauenhass im Netz: Die Machtfantasien der “Mannosphäre”

In the organizer's words:

Lecture by Dr. Jacob Johanssen

There are numerous online communities that belong to the so-called "mannosphere" and are known for their hatred of women and their proximity to the "alt-right movement", the alternative right in the USA.

What drives these people? What fantasies and images of physicality, gender and sexuality are constructed and exchanged in these forums? These men reveal contradictory thoughts, desires and fantasies about women that are misogynistic but also go beyond that. They are in a state of inhibition or disinhibition and are torn between self-pity and defensive apathy as well as fantasies of power and hatred of other bodies.

Jacob Johanssen, author of the book The Mannosphere, has analyzed the posts of Alt-Right YouTubers, Incels, MGTOWs (Men Going Their Own Way) and NoFap users as well as the manifestos of the murderers Anders Behring Breivik and Elliot Rodger. In his lecture, he talks about the spectrum of misogyny on the internet and uses psychoanalysis to explain its causes
