The recent TV series Adolescence brought home the frightening amount of misogynistic poison pouring into young people's phones, and the potentially horrific consequences of doing nothing about it.
Teacher Eoghan Cleary has been working with his own adolescent students and publishing vital support material for other teachers for many years.
For a First Thought Talk event at this year's Galway International Arts Festival, he was joined by Professor Debbie Ging, DCU, whose research focuses on these phenomena, and Patrick Freyne, Irish Times journalist whose writing presents a very different model of young Irish masculinity.
Journalist and broadcaster Dearbhail McDonald moderates this fascinating discussion - watch above.
