An “Orthobro” is a colloquial, usually pejorative term for a man—typically a recent convert or online enthusiast of Eastern Orthodox Church—whose attachment to Orthodoxy is perceived as being driven as much by internet culture, identity politics, aesthetics, hyper-traditionalism, or masculine posturing as by mature spiritual life and participation in the Church. The term commonly implies some combination of: aggressive certainty or triumphalism, excessive focus on externals (icons, beards, liturgy, empire, “based tradition”), combative online behavior, idealization of “traditional society” or rigid gender roles, shallow theological understanding despite strong opinions, treating Orthodoxy as a cultural or ideological badge rather than primarily a path of repentance, worship, and holiness.
