Forum Content:
Boys are bombarded with hyper-sexualised messages and images in the media and popular culture. The lives of young men are increasingly impacted by exposure to porn related content online. They are exposed to this content not only before they have had sex, but often before their first kiss, with an average age of first exposure at 11 years.
In a dynamic multi-media presentation which includes first person stories of young men, Melinda will explore with male students how exposure to these messages is contributing to a distorted view of bodies, relationships and sexuality. Melinda will help your young men stand against the tide, resist the 'bystander' effect, and choose to be men of integrity.
Please feel free to bring your son/s along with you to the forum and register through the process below. Enquiries regarding this event can be directed to the Deputy Headmaster's Office.
