Raising Boys in the Age of the Manosphere: How to Counter Online Misogyny

Is your son a misogynist?

Have they discovered the manosphere?

Are you worried about the content they might be finding online?

In today’s episode, I cut through the fear, the headlines, and the overwhelming statistics to help you understand what’s really happening in the world our children are growing up in. Because the truth is, our children are exposed to misogynistic language and content long before we realise it.

So I am going to explain exactly what the manosphere is, why our kids are being drawn towards it, and the three things our boys are really looking for instead.

I’m going to share five practical, age-specific things you can start doing right now to help them develop critical thinking, emotional intelligence, and the confidence to challenge harmful ideas.

If you want to raise children who are respectful, confident, compassionate, and able to think for themselves, but you just don’t know where to start, this episode is for you.

So take a seat, pour yourself a cuppa, and enjoy the conversation…
