Would you rather date a mansplaining alpha male or an aesthetic pick-me boy?

Would you rather date: A misogynistic, mansplaining “alpha male” who never posts on social media because he thinks being mysterious makes him superior, or a matcha-drinking, tote-bag-wearing pick-me boy who posts every moment of his life on his story and makes everything look like a curated retro recap? Be honest: which one is worse, and why?

There are still more ways for a smug, superiority-claiming guy to fight.

I’m firmly in the camp that men who try to make their entire life look fashionable are tougher to deal with. A condescending attitude you can still fight against with a “refute me” or “bring data,” but the “emotional performance guy” makes you feel like you’re being forced to live in a world filtered 24/7, and having everyday life turned into content is exhausting.
