Teaching about misogyny, masculinity and stereotypes

What’s the situation?

The past year has seen a marked rise in popularity of influencers who promote hateful and often misogynistic views amongst young people. Andrew Tate is perhaps the most well-known of these, and professionals that work with young people may be finding his name cropping up in their interactions with young people.

But why do some boys/young men seem to be aligning with this messaging? And what can educators do to hold space for these conversations and address the harm of these views? 

Take a look at some of our resources to learn more about it…
