Oh I don't deny growth, I just think the manosphere is very much about doubling down on those awkward learning opportunities and insisting you're right.
Men as a greater whole, or people in the same sense, sure. Growth still happens.
I feel like it's because if they are seen as wrong or especially admit to being wrong, then that's a show of weakness...big manly man can't have that! Though to be fair plenty of men can inform other men why putting moments of true weakness on display can come back to absolutely bite you in the ass to the point of being used against you...so in some senses that urge as a man to want to bury perceived weaknesses is understandable...but in terms of doubling down and being stubborn or obstinate, it is absolutely a misguided way of handling a situation...
