Man Enough: A Parent's Guide

FOR ADULTS

To tie in with the publication of Man Enough: How to Protect Boys from Online Misogyny by Matteo Bergamini and Amelia Fairney, we’re offering a free Parent’s Guide to the Manosphere.

With 69% of 11–14-year-old boys in the UK exposed to misogynistic content online, Man Enough explores how to talk to boys about toxic masculinity in an online world. To accompany the book, this free resource provides parents with:

Five Steps to Caring Communication: Learn how to “call in” rather than “call out,” creating non-judgemental spaces for open dialogue at home
The FACTS Critical Thinking Toolkit: A simple mnemonic (*F*ind, *A*nalyse, *C*ross-check, *T*ake note, *S*eek expert opinions) to teach kids how to spot fake news, manipulation, and bias online
Prebunking & Debunking Strategies: Proactive techniques to counter harmful narratives before they take root, and practical side-by-side conversation starters
Allyship Guidance: Empowering boys to safely challenge misogynistic comments and support targets of online hate
The Manosphere Lexicon: A key to decoding online slang, from Red Pill and Looksmaxxing to SMV and AWALT
