Le'Dor Milteer enters the world of apex predators as she trains to become a safari guide in South Africa. She must learn how to handle dangerous animals like lions and rhinos while also navigating sexist attitudes from her male colleagues. She struggles to be taken seriously as a guide and feels like she needs to prove herself every day. Ali Levine becomes a stand-up comic in Los Angeles, performing as a male comedian named Alex. She experiences the high-stress environment of comedy clubs, battling stage fright and developing comedic material. Levine also confronts toxic masculinity in the comedy scene and explores how male comedians use their power to dominate and belittle female performers. In addition to exploring different professions, the show also delves into the personal lives of the women as they experience changes in their relationships with friends and family members. The transformations also have a significant impact on the women's sense of self and their understanding of gender and identity. Overall, In a Man's World is an intriguing exploration of gender dynamics in various professions. The show exposes the challenges faced by women in male-dominated fields and highlights the pervasive nature of sexism and misogyny.
