Redefining manhood—one locker room talk at a time

Changing the culture around sexual assault requires inviting young men to rethink what it means to be a man and to respect women. In one locker room, after a player admitted he thought it was 'cool to fuck girls,' a simple question—'Says who?'—prompted real self-reflection. Media, schools, and families all play a role in shaping attitudes, often reinforcing toxic stereotypes through ten hours of daily media consumption and 3,000 brand images. True progress demands emotional education, practical language, and making respect for women deeply personal.
