To wonder how much the guys from Geordie Shore, Love Island, etc. worry about mansplaining and male entitlement

As a (I hope) reasonably sensitive bloke, I am mindful about coming across as needy, pompous, entitlement and suchlike, especially when it comes to dating. Yet the male members of these types of shows seem completely oblivious to such concerns.

That's because they're thick.

Would it be possible to explain anything to the women on these shows?

You know when you interact with people on a daily basis? Do that. Women are people.

If you're not needy, pompous or entitled you won't come across that way.

YABVU to worry about how much the guys from Geordie Shore, Love Island, etc. worry about mansplaining and male entitlement. These are the kind of people that would think a general election is something to do with an erection and hearing of a hung parliament would spark a load of big dick jokes. Simple answer = don't worry, as they're clearly not.

Because they earn a lot of money out of it. Wouldn't cut it in real life, I hope.

"Reality" tv is also heavily manipulated and edited so I wouldn't really take it as truth anyway
