If you aspire to become a serious scholar of the manosphere, like me, you've got to learn the lingo.
Yes, like any subculture, the manosphere has its own specialized jargon. You may not find these terms in your standard dictionary, so here are a couple of links to consult when you run across a cryptic reference to, say, "hypergamy" "gynocentrism" or "pussification."
David Futrelle has put together a glossary at his website. The webmistress of Bodycrimes has also compiled a helpful "Dictionary of Misogyny."
The authoritative Rationalwiki also has a good one, which can be found by going to http://rationalwiki.org/wiki/Fun:Manosphere_glossary.
