Earlier, I made a thread about how patriarchy impacts women. And how it is systemic, shocking & repetitive.

I also want to talk about how patriarchy affects young men, leading to male aggression online, based on my understanding from the #YuvaaRoadshow.

#Thread #boyslockerroom
I met 10,000+ students in 100+ colleges on the roadshow over 2 years. We tried creating safe spaces to listen & to understand their mental health & identity issues. We found:

1. The top issue for young women is harassment/body shaming.
2. The top one for young men is loneliness.
It was disturbing to hear the volume of stories about assault, shaming, & colourism from young women who spoke up, sometimes in classrooms full of students.

At the same time, most of them also spoke about acceptance from their female friends & being hyped by their 'girl tribes'.
