Masculinity, Misogyny, and the Manosphere - What Schools Need to Know: The Late Show with Tom Rogers

What do Andrew Tate, incel culture, and TikTok trends have to do with your classroom? More than you might think! In this Teachers Talk Radio show, host Tom Rogers is joined by Matt Pinkett and Tommy Michael to explore the growing influence of the manosphere on boys in our schools. We break down how online misogyny spreads, why certain messages about masculinity are so appealing to young men, and what teachers can do to respond—thoughtfully, firmly, and without alienating the very students we want to reach. From assemblies to everyday classroom interactions, we ask: How do we spot the warning signs? How do we open up safe, meaningful conversations about gender and identity? And how can schools strike the right balance between challenge and compassion? Whether you're a classroom teacher, a head of year, or just wondering why so many students are quoting Tate, this is a must-listen show on one of the most pressing issues facing education today.
