But research shows that men are socialized early on to buy into toxic ideas of manhood. Recently, Equimundo released a report called \u201cThe Man Box,\u201d exploring how young men\u2019s attitudes about \u201cbeing a real man\u201d link with their reported rates of perpetrating sexual harassment, among many other harmful outcomes. In this study, we used representative samples of more than 1,000 young men in the U.S., United Kingdom, and Mexico, including rural\/urban areas, and young men in all educational and income levels.<\/p>\n<p>Our findings have major implications for understanding the root causes of sexual harassment and how to prevent it. We found that:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Though the majority of men do not harass, bully, or approve of violence,\u00a0<strong>one in five<\/strong>\u00a0young men in Mexico and\u00a0<strong>one in three\u00a0<\/strong>young men in the U.S. and the U.K. had made\u00a0<em>sexually harassing comments to a woman or girl they didn\u2019t know<\/em>\u00a0in a public or online space in the prior month.<\/li>\n<li>Young men who hold the strongest belief in harmful masculine norms related to hypersexuality, homophobia, and aggression, are up to\u00a0<strong>10 times as likely\u00a0<\/strong>to have perpetrated this sexual harassment as men who least believe in these norms.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Nearly 2\/3 of respondents<\/strong>\u00a0to the Man-Box tool had been told, at some point in their lives, that a \u201creal man\u201d behaves a certain way.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Peers, parents, teachers, the media and others play a role in reinforcing harmful ideas about how men should act to be considered \u201creal men.\u201d If an individual knows no other narrative or definition of manhood, our data show, their actions often follow that narrative. So then, what are some ways we can challenge these beliefs and provide a new narrative? We can:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Start young,<\/strong>\u00a0engaging youth in reflection and discussion about respect, equality, gender norms and the rejection of violence;<\/li>\n<li><strong>Implement bystander approaches<\/strong>, teaching young men to speak out in nonviolent ways when they see the abusive behavior;<\/li>\n<li><strong>Listen to women\u00a0<\/strong>and include their voices at all levels of programming and outreach.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>For more good ideas on how to work with young men to deconstruct harmful masculine norms and prevent all forms of men\u2019s violence against women, please tune into the webinar that we are presenting, \u201cWhat Does the Evidence Say? Innovative Approaches to\u00a0Engaging\u00a0Men\u00a0and Boys,\u201d on March 29, hosted by the National Latin@ Network.\u00a0<strong>To register or for more information,\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.nationallatinonetwork.org\/training-and-events\/1852-webinar-3-29-18\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">click here<\/a>.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>You can find the full <em>Bo\u00eete \u00e0 hommes<\/em> rapport <a href=\"https:\/\/www.equimundo.org\/fr\/resources\/man-box-study-young-man-us-uk-mexico\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">ici<\/a> et le <em>D\u00e9masquer le harc\u00e8lement sexuel<\/em> research brief\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.equimundo.org\/fr\/resources\/unmasking-sexual-harassment\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">ici<\/a>.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Initialement publi\u00e9 sur le r\u00e9seau national Latin@, disponible en anglais et en espagnol.
