CATCH UP: Louis Theroux doco, the manosphere & our thoughts

We watched Louis Theroux: Inside The Manosphere and we want to talk about it. 

Plus - we share some disturbing data from a recent study that found that Gen-Z are more likely than Baby Boomers to hold traditional views about gender roles.

But alongside all of that we also share some positive stories: how men have escaped the manosphere, male creators we love, and your message about how listening to this podcast has given you the knowledge & confidence to start conversions about gender equality in real life.

WE MENTIONED

The miniseries we made about the manosphere was called ‘Am I Equal’. You can search for these episodes in your podcast app…
