Who Has It Harder in 2026: Men or Women? | Man Like You EP 53

Who has it harder in 2026: men or women? And when it comes to dating, is “he’s got potential” actually enough? Mo Gilligan, Babatunde Aléshé and Eddie Kadi get into women’s everyday safety concerns, the pressure on men to provide, and what ambition really looks like when you’re still figuring life out. Then the public etiquette complaints come flying: loud FaceTime calls, people standing WAY too close, sweaty gym equipment and BMW drivers who think they own the road. Plus, the boys revisit the childhood toys that made them feel rich—and explain why Costco is now their adult toy shop 😂 Get involved in the comments: who do YOU think has it harder, and why? And what’s the one public habit you wish people would stop?
