This issue is grounded in a dual operation. On the one hand, it seeks to map (to render legible its discursive, media, and affective architectures); on the other, it aims to problematize (to interrogate its cultural productivity, its capacity to reorganize hegemony, and its entanglement with neoliberal economies of subjectivation). The notion of *produsage* proves particularly fruitful here, as it allows us to approach the manosphere not merely as a set of consumed messages, but as a cultural machinery in which users and creators co-produce meanings, repertoires, and stigmas, amplified by platform logics and monetization dynamics.
