The Man Box Session
Saturday November 23, 2024 11:00am - 12:00pm EST
TBA
The Man Box session de-constructs the collective socialization of men and boys. We examine the impact of social norms, culture, and traditional images of manhood that have created an environment that supports, tolerates and often encourages male dominance, aggression and discrimination toward women, girls, and non-binary people. We will articulate how the Man Box perpetuates sexism and inequality, and how embracing and promoting a healthy, respectful masculinity will prevent dating violence, gender based harassment, sexual assault, gun violence, bullying, and other social ills. The session provides insight into the construct of sexism from an intersectional lens and challenges the privileges and entitlements given to men by men and those attitudes and behaviors are passed down to our boys.
