'Jestermaxxing' is bizarre new trend following on from people hitting their faces with hammers

Jestermaxxing is the latest term to make its way onto the internet, with the bizarre trend yet another that's come about thanks to the manosphere.

If you're fortunate enough to not be aware of the strange culture which is affecting young men across the world, then buckle up, because I'm about to explain this bizarre trend as best as I can.

Essentially, streamers online are attempting to influence young men into believing that violence against women is justified because women are 'evil', with their value as a human entirely dependent on their attractiveness, which is obviously nonsense, but some men are lapping it up because of their struggles with the opposite sex. The worrying trend is also explored in the hit Netflix series Adolescence.

This sometimes involves coming up with strange new words, whether it's 'looksmaxxing' which gives you terrible advice about looking your best, while 'framemogging' involves looking more muscular than another man.

One thing those in incel culture aren't too keen on is 'jestermaxxing', which essentially involves having fun and cracking jokes as a way of making yourself seem more entertaining, with some influencers in the manosphere warning against having fun at all costs.

While it might be frowned upon in incel culture, jestermaxxing sounds alarmingly similar to my method with the opposite gender for most of my adult life, although obviously my devilish good looks also helped in landing me such a wonderful partner.

Certainly, most sensible folks would argue that acting silly and making a woman laugh is far more likely to increase her attraction to you than admitting to hitting yourself in the face with a hammer, but that ridiculous tactic is seen as transformative by some of the main authorities in the manosphere.

That's exactly what popular streamer Clavicular has been recommending recently, with the young American applying Wolff's Law in completely the wrong way, as he claims that controlled stress to his cheekbones is the best way of 'looksmaxxing' - yet another strange trend that this internet group seems to abide by.

In a Kick video, he can be heard telling a bemused police officer: "Do you guys know about bone-smashing? It's according to Wolff's Law, so when you break down a bone it grows back stronger. So I'm trying to grow my cheekbones."

Naturally, if you want to have a successful and healthy relationship, you should probably do the exact opposite of what the likes of Andrew Tate and HSTikkyTokky are suggesting, given a significant percentage of their content revolves around hating women.

However, a quick glance at Clavicular's content seems to suggest that he's shifted his focus in recent weeks, with the streamer more open to the idea of 'jestermaxxing' and actually enjoying his life. Good for him I say.
