Sexual assault & violence against women: A societal crisis with a human solution.

Humanity is currently facing a crisis. Women are falling victim to physical, sexual & emotional abuse at the hands of men & the statistics tell a sad story of a culture gone wrong.

I spent the morning having a long form conversation with 2 of my best mates. We are certainly not experts, we don’t have all the answers but we wanted to start a conversation & create dialogue to develop our understanding, to be accountable for what needs to change & to lead the way for other men to do the same. We understand that the we can only try to empathise with women, but we can’t speak to their personal experiences as young men & because of that, we invite anyone listening to the episode or watching along to contribute to the conversation with feedback or their own perspective. Cultural change requires a collective effort.

In this conversation, we discuss:

- What does it mean to be a good man?

- How we can take responsibility to create safer environments for women to live without looking over their shoulder or feeling uncomfortable in environments like the workplace, school & bars/clubs?

- Redefining sexual abuse & giving clarity to what society has previously defined as a ‘grey area’.

- Sharing the female perspectives of women we know & the work advocates like Chanel Contos are doing to help women call out in-appropriate behaviour & help men understand it.

- The problematic narratives in media that creat further division instead of unity for positive change.

& much more.
