Why are so many young teenage boys misogynistic? Where do they get these attitudes from?

And men need to step up and talk with these boys..tell them girls are to be treated with the respect they demand is shown to them. That there's more to girls than their bodies. That their own success or failure isn't the fault of anyone else. That they need to work through their own problems, their own insecurity and not blame womankind for all their woes.
I think in part they get this attitude from hard-core porn so readily available via their mobile phones. Studies have shown that boys are both accessing such images earlier and that porn acts in the same way as hard drugs on young minds.
Boys see these portrayals and think all women are out to get whatever they have.
Women need to raise their daughters to know they aren't just sex objects, that they can do things without either taking their clothes off or needing a man to pay
The lack of respect being shown towards women is everywhere. Girls report the abuse they suffer at the hands of boys at school. This is too often sexualisation of young girls not equipped to deal with such things and done by boys who's only sexual encounters are via Porn Hub.
But we should be looking at the youth of today and see what's going wrong with them.

The dehumanisation of women via porn can't be stressed enough imo.
Women have become ultra independent in the last couple of decades . We have our own finances, our own homes, our own lifestyles. We have worked hard and have broken into industries that were male dominated. We are visible now…we are the ones in charge and for the men left behind we are again the enemy . Instead of maybe looking within, these men blame us for their woes.
And boys listen to this. They see their future as bleak, and they too blame women even as they don't know why.

And then there's such things as TikTok. Girls and young women do themselves no favours on such platforms imo. They are often seen as greedy, self absorbed ppl who care only for what a man has rather than wanting a relationship with him albeit not a long term one.
Social media is a huge factor in so much that we now face . People are free to voice the most odious of opinions without consequence. Men who have failed relationships with women write horrendously misogynistic claptrap that younger men believe as a universal truth.
And then there's the usual suspects such as Andrew Tate…who reinforce such awful stereotypes and pander to the male ego by villifing women.

Women and men both have their own forms of discrimination to face. We both have obstacles to overcome. We both have goals in life we strive to reach
