The world is done with Wife Guys. Thank goodness for that | Arwa Mahdawi

The story of a philandering star drew attention to an archetype based on our very low standards for straight men

This time last week I had no idea who Ned Fulmer was. If anyone had asked (which no one did) I'd have said it was that bloke from the Simpsons. It is not. Fulmer is a moderately famous internet personality who, until very recently, was a member of a YouTube crew called the Try Guys; as the name suggests, they're a bunch of guys who try things. (Seven and a half million people have subscribed to their YouTube channel, so it seems they are pretty good at trying things.) In his spare time, it seems like Fulmer decided to try cheating on his wife with one of his employees: he was caught doing so and has now been booted out of the Try Guys. Like every celebrity who messes up, Fulmer has issued an apology via the Notes app and now appears to be trying to mend his marriage.
