Online Misogyny: When Numbers Replace Respect
The objectification of women in online spaces is an increasingly prevalent issue, as evidenced by the recent video posted by Casten aka Red Velvet on a popular social media platform. The video, which has garnered 710 views in just two days, features Casten criticizing the misogynistic views expressed by some members of online communities. He states, "Red pillers and incels are weirdly obsessed with numbers." He further argues that this numerical approach to women is dehumanizing and contributes to the problem of male loneliness. While the video uses strong language, its core message highlights a serious concern about the impact of online misogyny and the need for a more respectful dialogue around gender relations. Experts in gender studies and online behavior could provide further insight into this growing trend and its consequences.
