This is why the dating scene is so difficult. A woman is getting a ton of (deserved?) backlash after saying that she gets into relationships so she can humble men. “It’s like, my pastime,” said 22-year-old Hensley while on the Whatever podcast.

Whatever Podcast Interviews Women While Viewers Get to Ask Questions Remotely
Hensley is a stripper who is majoring in psychology with a minor in philosophy and drug and alcohol counseling. She had been on Whatever previously and was asked about a guy she was dating. According to her, he was a go-go dancer who may have been a “diagnosable narcissist.”
“The whole time I was seeing him, I was just kind of using it as a psychology experiment,” Hensley said about why they stopped seeing each other. “And I didn’t really like the guy. I more just wanted to see if I could break his heart. And it was fun!”
Understandably, most of the table was in shock at this point. Asked if she succeeded in her mission, Hensley answered, “Just a wee bit.”
“So, you thoroughly destroyed him. You ruined him for other women is what you’re saying,” asked the host.
“No,” she responded, mentioning that she thought he was a narcissist. “It was more of like, a head game. I think he’s much too conceited to be in full heartbreak. But I hope I did a little damage.”
This TikTok Clip About Hensley “Humbling Men” Has Gone Viral
Hensley added that she likes “humbling men” and that it was a pastime of hers.
It seems that Hensley doesn’t understand clinical narcissism too well, which is disappointing considering the focus of her studies. Generally, they say you’re supposed to run as far away from narcissists as you possibly can and as fast as possible. Staying with people who purposefully use head games to destroy other people and see no true meaning in their relationships usually doesn’t work… Wait…
The comments section exploded on YouTube and TikTok.
“Hensley needs to be reported to the ethics board of her school. She can’t become a therapist. Imagine what she’d do to people.”
“Hensley is the kind of woman that asks, ‘where are all the nice guys?’ after hitting 30, while sitting alone in an empty apartment with nothing but her cats and pills for company.”
“Karma is producing a best-selling book series off this one.”
“Can’t wait to hear what she does when she gets ‘humbled.’”
“She needs a permanent warning label.”
“Even the other girls were like ‘damn I thought I was crazy.’”
“Somewhere a villain origin story has begun.”
It went on and on. There were dozens of mentions of Andrew Tate, who I admittedly hadn’t heard of. He’s an internet misogynist who promotes “toxic masculinity,” according to Vox. And he’s on trial in Romania after 75 women have accused him of rape and human trafficking.
“God bless Andrew Tate,” “This is why Andrew Tate exists,” and “Tate’s speeches are starting to be more reasonable” were just some of the references to the internet personality. This makes Hensley’s comments even more disappointing.
Later on, Henley added that she is comfortable being alone, by the way. That’s good for her because it sounds like that might be her future.
