023 Sophie Marsh on Men’s Violence Against Women


Listen Later

This episode delves into the life of Sophie Marsh. A 2nd year PHD Student, Associate University Lecturer and Blogger. Together we have an open conversation about men's violence against women and look to understand what this actually looks like on a systematic and day-to-day level, what the consequences are and what men can do about it.

This episode really opened my eyes to the general lack of awareness and understanding of the situation, myself included. I ask Sophie about the many types of violent behaviour that exists and how men can start conversations to challenge this within friendship groups. We also ponder the where the boundary lies between a compliment and harassment after her flatmates Depop exchange experience went viral on Twitter.

If you fancy reading more on the subject, I highly recommend checking out Sophie's website where she expresses her research in a less formal tone, along with discussions on criminal justice, human rights and plant-based recipe's.
