Engaging Men in the Digital Age

From group chats to gaming forums to AI-generated porn, online spaces play a major role in how young people—especially men and boys—learn about relationships, identity, and belonging. This session explores how digital culture can both reinforce and reshape harmful ideas about masculinity. We’ll discuss how university staff can support students navigating these spaces, promote healthy online communities, and intervene when online behaviors cause harm.

  • Analyze how online culture and AI platforms influence men’s and boys’ ideas of masculinity and relationships.
