adolescence, masculinity & misogyny | my reaction as a mom to a 12 year old boy

#adolescence #netflix #andrewtate #misogyny

Welcome back :)

This week I took a super deep dive into the netflix show adolescence, through the lens of being a mother to a 12 year old boy & also a feminist!


I sectioned my deep dive into 5 parts
male aggression
'good guy' complex
(not so) subtle misogyny
walking on eggshells
father figures


I covered a lot in this episode & if any of it affected you, I will leave some resources for support.
