To prevent violence and abuse, working with individual men is not enough. Dean Peacock articulates why we also need to address the social and commercial determinants of violence - such as the firearms industry, and how it links masculinity with weapons: #NowandMen www.nowandmen.net/episode/dean...
What a joy to speak to Sam Browne for episode 65 of #NowandMen... If you haven't come across Sam's beautiful spoken word poetry yet, he is articulating the full gamut of human emotions, and countering the manosphere and rigid masculine constraints while he's at it. www.nowandmen.net/episode/sam-...
This new book by the brilliant @claremcglynn.bsky.social is a must read. We were lucky to interview Clare on #NowandMen last year about her work to shed a light on the harms that p0rn & big tech are doing to us, as they profit from & intensify harmful gender norms: www.nowandmen.net/episode/clar...
Masculine pressures to be strong, stoical & self-reliant are combining with the judgement of individual health & appearance within neoliberal society to create increasing anxiety among men & boys about their bodies. Prof Brendan Gough explains more on #NowandMen! nowandmen.net/episode/bren...
I was slow to come across this piece, but it fascinatingly illustrates how patriarchy and colonialism constrain our attempts to make sense of the natural world around us, and how gender norms also influence how we interpret the actions of other animals: www.theguardian.com/environment/...
In our latest #NowandMen episode, Dean Peacock is highly thought-provoking on what is driving the current surge to war & militarism around the world, what this has to do with masculinity & patriarchy, and the role of structural change in paving alternative ways forward: nowandmen.net/episode/dean...
New journal article with my fabulous colleagues @snappyalligator.bsky.social & @charlottemertens.bsky.social in the excellent Gender and Education! We critically reflect on what it means to teach about gender-based violence in higher education on stolen Indigenous lands: doi.org/10.1080/0954...
New #NowandMen episode with Landon Kenney, Male Allies Program Coordinator at Sexual Assault Support Centre of the Waterloo Region! We discuss engaging with men about consent & preventing sexual violence, including in ice hockey, as well as #HeatedRivalry & Mark Carney! nowandmen.net/episode/land...
Have you seen #HeatedRivalry yet? I for one found it hugely affecting. As Landon Kenney discusses on #NowandMen, it simultaneously shows us the beautiful love, tenderness and intimacy men are capable of - and all of the patriarchal barriers that get in the way: nowandmen.net/episode/land...
A recent BBC report shows sexism in football is an ongoing issue.
A new pop-up and online exhibition by @staceypope.bsky.social shines a light on the untold experiences of female fans — and challenges the idea that greater access has led to true equality.
