#YesAllMen: counter movement created by men to focus on improving physical & psychological safety for women by changing male behaviour that results in violence.
This twitter account was set up after the murder of Sarah Everard. Men got together online to talk about how we could use our power & privilege to challenge violence & abuse against women. @Paul_Framp was one of those men 1/2
How to reduce backlash and build support in engaging men in violence prevention and gender equality work:

Gender Bias In The Courts: Women Are Not Believed
The justice system systematically discounts women’s credibility. What can be done?
https://t.co/VvPHJcFXTW @FerschLLC
Men aren’t entitled to women's time or affection yet many men still behave like they deserve deference, just because they are a man: this is the start of a slippery slope towards misogyny & then violence https://t.co/J08kjcCl9Z
Gender equality: Men and boys have a vital role to play in ending violence and gender injustice. Let's shift from men's mere involvement, to men’s accountability for dismantling systems of male privilege.

📣 This afternoon we had the good news that there will be a pilot of a new @ukhomeoffice emergency "flexible fund" for survivors, after much campaigning. THANK YOU to everyone who campaigned alongside us for this- such an important 1st step having a pilot. https://t.co/KgTlyZh94r
#MRA / men’s rights strategies on domestic violence, health, and other issues in fact are harmful to men themselves. They’re driven by anti-feminist political agendas rather than a genuine concern for suffering men. See pp. 275-77 of https://t.co/5nqHw16a71
#MeToo has changed how the media portrays rape
A Norwegian study finds that media reporting on sexual violence has improved, at least in some ways, in the wake of #MeToo

Without any broader effort to advance women or accountability from managers and leaders, women’s leadership development programs can signal that women are deficient and need fixing, that the problem is women’s inability to compete with men, and can amplify gender stereotypes. 2/3
Where Women’s Leadership Development Programs Fall Short
"for every woman you send to a leadership development program, send a proportional number of male leaders for inclusive leadership, allyship, or cultural humility development to improve their gender intelligence."

For all those men knowing they should be better allies to women and doing more this #InternationalWomensDay (Wednesday), start with this great list of micro actions @yellif recommends https://t.co/ZMu7uP2bdx
‘Not to buy into patriarchy means renouncing some historical privileges, but they are privileges which don’t give you peace, don’t give you happiness. If we continue with this gender asymmetry we are all in trouble’ @MenCareGlobal https://t.co/34ssu7AoXx

Just watched the fab Mila Kunis in #LuckiestGirlAlive. Such a powerful narrative that simultaneously shines a light on the incapacitating, life long pain of rape as well as the gateway to escaping that pain thru the bravery to confront & make public.
Our NEW and IMPROVED survivor’s handbook contains essential information and practical support for women experiencing domestic abuse, including safety planning, finding a refuge, starting over, legal help and lots more.

Can men help take down patriarchy?
With the rise of right wing populism and authoritarian strongmen in positions of power, patriarchy seems more entrenched than ever. It is more important than ever to engage men in the struggle for gender equality.

It is long past time for men to join with women in preventing and reducing men’s violence against women and girls. Massive collection of resources here: guides, readings, speeches, manuals, discussions of key debates, bibliographies, my (free) book, etc. https://t.co/EIveeN3Vzo
@ayeshahazarika@standardnews@YesAllMen2021 It needed to be written, there needs to be more editorial consistently dedicated to covering this toxic (masculine) issue. I shared this from @TIME earlier in week which is from a different lens but makes some powerful points abt this as a global issue https://t.co/ZVFAT5xFhM
