This training explores why some young people are expressing misogynistic beliefs and behaviours, and how educators and youth practitioners can respond in ways that promote curiosity, critical thinking and healthier relationships.
Rather than focusing on quick fixes or debating individual comments, this session takes a preventative, youth-centred approach.
We explore the wider social, cultural and technological influences shaping young people's attitudes, alongside practical strategies for opening up meaningful conversations.
In this recording you'll explore:
Why misogynistic ideas appear to be becoming more visible amongst some young people.
The cultural, technological and economic factors shaping these attitudes.
A practical framework for responding to misogynistic comments without increasing defensiveness.
Ways to encourage empathy, critical thinking and reflection.
How high-quality Relationships and Sex Education (RSE) can help prevent harmful attitudes before they become entrenched.
Practical examples and conversation prompts you can adapt for your own setting.
The training is co-facilitated by Tim Squirrell, whose research focuses on the manosphere, online misogyny and extremist communities, alongside the Split Banana team.
This recording is designed for teachers, RSHE leads, youth workers, pastoral staff and anyone supporting young people to build respectful, consensual and joyful relationships.
Please note: This recording was originally delivered as a live webinar. Interactive activities and audience discussion have been adapted for the recorded version.
