Those are not two different constituencies, though... They haven't ever been.

Don't quite follow, sorry. If you're equating the alt-right manosphere and the right generally then yeah, I agree entirely. Just acknowledging that (if you're US based) the right has a veneer of puritanism that (on the face of it) sits oddly with "do x to get laid".

Read "Jesus and John Wayne" by Kristin DuMez as a good summary. The manosphere and the Christian right are not different groups, even though it may appear that their ideologies seem to contradict. There's a reason Joe Rogan has started going to church.

No I absolutely accept that, and I'm familiar with the (bizarre, to my mind, but here we are) "logic" underpinning it all. We're absolutely in agreement on that. They're very much two sides of the same coin.
