An Imperfect Chat About Men

About this episode

<p>In this bonus episode of The Imperfects, Hugh, Ryan and Josh have an imperfect conversation about mens violence against women.</p> <p>To say it's a massive problem in Australia is an understatement. Violence and aggression can take many forms that span from small micro-aggressions all the way through to rape and murder. It effects ALL women, with the most vulnerable and marginalised in our community, at the greatest risk. We don&rsquo;t have the answers to solve it. But we don&rsquo;t want to remain silent. Through this conversation and many more we'll have on the podcast, it&rsquo;s our hope that more men start to have the conversation as well.</p> <p>You can follow Penny Moodie&rsquo;s advocacy on instagram here, <a href="https://bit.ly/3JIBf81">https://bit.ly/3JIBf81</a>.</p> <p>To listen to our previous episode on consent with Chanel Contos follow this link: <a href="https://bit.ly/3RNKpEm">https://bit.ly/3RNKpEm</a>&nbsp;</p> <p>Or to purchase Chanel's book, Consent Laid Bare, follow this link: <a href="https://bit.ly/49BNDRC">https://bit.ly/49BNDRC</a></p> <p>To listen to our previous conversation about men&rsquo;s violence with Tarang Chawla follow this link: <a href="https://apple.co/3APcuGi">https://apple.co/3APcuGi</a>&nbsp;</p> <p>To learn more about this problem or we recommend Our Watch <a href="https://bit.ly/3w0BQhV">https://bit.ly/3w0BQhV</a> &amp; White Ribbon <a href="https://bit.ly/3W6nMhs">https://bit.ly/3W6nMhs</a></p> <p>If you are a man concerned about your behaviour please contact No To Violence: <a href="https://bit.ly/3UlyiA5">https://bit.ly/3UlyiA5</a></p> <p>If you feel like you are in immediate danger please call 000.
