After Danny Dyer's documentary 'Where Toxic Masculinity Comes From', Lala received masses of dm's from you wanting to know her opinion on it. So here it is. Lala breaks down the documentary, she discusses why it was important that it was made but also where it totally missed out on challenging problematic issues and opinions. Unlike Danny's conclusion that there is a war on men and that everyone sees masculinity as a bad thing, Lala observes that toxic masculinity is alive and kicking and a result of not understanding or addressing what it actually is to be a man.  If you'd like to ask Lala a question, get in touch @asklalalaletmeexplain on Instagram and let's navigate this romantic landscape together!  A Sony Music Entertainment production  Find more great podcasts from Sony Music Entertainment at sonymusic.com/podcasts and follow us at @sonypodcasts  To bring your brand to life in this podcast, email podcastadsales@sonymusic.com  And if you would like to read more from Lala follow the link for her weekly OK Mag column https://www.ok.co.uk/authors/Lalalaletmeexplain/  Learn more about your ad choices.

It’s hot take Monday where Lala discusses a topic that is currently being hotly debated. And this week Lala is discussing female misogynist grifters. Have you seen the clips on social media or YouTube or heard these women on podcasts that are saying things like ‘I don’t think women should vote’ or ‘I am blessed to know feminism is a scam’. These are female misogynist grifters that live amongst the online manosphere. They are women who actively promote or support misogyny and perpetuate harmful attitudes towards women. They’re in favour of traditional gender roles, they dismiss the idea of gender equality and criticise the feminist movements. This Monday Lala is giving her opinion on the problematic views these women hold.
