Many of you sent me the recent research by DCU's Anti-Bullying Centre which shone a light on the way anti-feminist, misogynistic content ends up on young men's social media fees. I really wanted to hear more about the research and to learn more about the origins of this kind of content as well as what we can do to help the boys in our life falling prey to it, so I was delighted to chat to lead researcher Dr. Catherine Baker of DCU's Anti-Bullying Centre.
