@tas50 I'm not saying social media doesn't push it on kids, it's about how we innoculate kids so they recognize bigoty when exposed to it and don't get sucked in. If you have female and non-White friends as a man and model healthy masculinity then you're actively modeling embracing equality, being antiracist and being feminist.
And I don't have kids, though I talk to kids I love about these things, so I'm not here to lecture you. Obviously you're an engaged parent and you've countered what they're mimicking that they see online. Deconstructing and explaining why those dog whistles are racist/sexist/homophobic is part of educating your kid if they haven't already learned that and it's also teaching them to think critically and to be anti-racist and feminist. Feminism is also for boys because it's essentially just humanism at its core. @tob @mekkaokereke @wendinoakland
