A woman disguises and trains herself to be a man for 18 months and infiltrates some male-frequented spaces to learn how it feels to be a man.
The first chapter is in a money-league bowling alley with around 60 men, frequented by blue-collar working-class men who arrive there after work, every Monday, for 6 months

In the 3rd chapter, she explores the world of strip clubs and titty bars as a man. The objectification of desires, the empty transactions that provide an evanescent feeling of fulfillment, and the feedback cycles.
In the 4th chapter, she tries dating as a man and is hit with a truckload of emotions. I find it exceedingly funny that her observations and inferences are so similar to what the manosphere touts.
