I find it crazy that I didn't really have any real male role models, but the media I turned to ended up being guys like Henry Rollins.
The "finding myself" period of my life pre-dated the existence of this manosphere/shallow-ass-masculinity shit, but the archetype has been around for far longer and there were plenty of slimy douchebags to look up to. Sometimes I wonder what spared me.
