The Manosphere Is in Our Classrooms-Now What?

from The Difficult Woman’s Guide to Education (and Life) · host Bronnie Hammond-Vale

Something is shifting in our classrooms-and it’s not just behaviour. In this episode, Bronnie unpacks the growing influence of the manosphere and incel culture in schools, and why reducing it to “poor behaviour” is missing the bigger picture. From real-life experiences-like boys sending “jokes” about periods-to the subtle language showing up in classrooms, this conversation dives into where these beliefs are coming from, why young people are vulnerable to them, and how algorithms are shaping identity more than education. This episode is not about blaming boys. It’s about understanding influence-and asking better questions. Because even with restrictions on social media, these narratives are still reaching our kids. So what should schools be doing? How do we start these conversations at home? And what happens if we don’t? This is the conversation we can’t afford to avoid.
