Scenario

When male friend groups struggle to address problematic behavior within their circle

Our friend group has one guy who constantly makes comments that cross the line but when the women in our group call it out, the rest of us men don't know how to respond - we don't want to defend him but we also don't want to pile on, and our paralysis is becoming its own problem.

More people experience this than they realize.

What we've seen

A mixed-gender group is discovering that the men don't know how to hold each other accountable for harmful masculine behavior.
