EP 7. Without Honesty, Prevention Is Just A Band-Aid

What's Really Teaching Violence Against Women and Girls

This episode is a continuation of Episode 6, where I explored why the UK’s Violence Against Women and Girls Strategy 2025 is unlikely to succeed without honesty.

In Episode 7, I go deeper.

I reflect on how the manosphere is not just online content or isolated figures, but a wider culture — reinforced by industries, algorithms, institutions, and profit — that teaches harm long before violence ever reaches the justice system.

I talk about how culture shapes behaviour, how unfinished stories form, and why focusing only on individuals misses the systems producing the harm.

I also share personal reflection — not to explain violence away, but to sit with the uncomfortable questions prevention requires us to ask.

This episode is an invitation to notice what surrounds us, what we absorb, and what we quietly learn to accept.

If this episode resonates, consider sharing it with someone who might need to hear it.

Take what resonates. Leave the rest.
