But Why? Real talk on messy minds, and messier systems

But Why Are Boys Turning to Misogyny? | Masculinity, Media & the World of Adolescence


Listen Later

In this episode, Kristin and Laura take a psychological deep dive into Netflix’s Adolescence, a gripping series that explores how one teenage boy ends up committing an unthinkable act. But instead of focusing on who did it, the show—and this conversation—asks why.

Together, we explore:

• What incel culture is and how boys are drawn into it

• The role of social media, masculinity myths, and loneliness

• How families and schools can better support emotional growth

• Why girls' safety is still treated as secondary

• The emotional toll of being unheard—for everyone

This episode is about more than one story. It’s about the cultural conditions we’ve created—and the conversations we still need to have.
