Ways boys can avoid sexual violence.

Speak to someone like a counsellor for advice when girls start using their bodies and ridiculing language to exploit belittle manipulate and confuse you. It's not your fault and you're not a "pussy" if it makes you uncomfortable.

Speak up when female teachers get flirty with you, it's difficult but start with Kidsline it's confidential and up to age of 25. Sexual violence perpetrated by female teachers on male students is not OK. Report it, talk to someone about it, do not engage. They do not care about you.

Speak up about how porn makes you feel, emotions like anger and confusion. Think about how to protect yourself from getting skewed perceptions from the sexual violence that is being imposed on you via porn. Research healthy relationships and how online content destroys that potential.

Get on school councils etc and speak up about lack of initiatives to help boys deal with their relationship with sexual violence that is depicted just about everywhere as the norm.

Name it when you see boys being demonised in programs like this and in the press when they act out from a diet of online sexual violence with zero guidance, education, mentoring, from the toxic highly deficient world around them.

Society gets the young men it deserves.

Let me say that again.

Society gets the young men it deserves.

This skewed program demonised young men for taking part in the cultural norms WE HAVE ALL ALLOWED, and it is is a useless dangerous destructive unenlightened approach.

Great performances by these young actors and it's good to see this stuff being aired, but it sadly fell into unhelpful cliche and did little for the greater good.
