  •  How can we combat the rules of normal masculinity (acting macho, dehumanizing women, constant competition to be the alpha) in our everyday lives? ​
  •  How can calling out and stopping these fraternal organizations from committing these foul acts lead to a future with less toxic masculinity? ​

Meaning, when you see something say something. And continue to use social media to put pressure on the university. https://padlet.com/livelise11/o28n2n5cix581ln8/wish/1868477392 2021-11-04 21:18:44 UTC https://padlet.com/livelise11/o28n2n5cix581ln8/wish/1868477392 by calling out forms of injustice for what they are... ex) anti abortion is not pro life but rather a way to control women's bodies https://padlet.com/livelise11/o28n2n5cix581ln8/wish/1868477906 2021-11-04 21:19:09 UTC https://padlet.com/livelise11/o28n2n5cix581ln8/wish/1868477906 https://padlet.com/livelise11/o28n2n5cix581ln8/wish/1868477933 I think one way is to speak up about smaller ways that fraternal organizations can be misogynistic. For example, refusing to laugh at a sexist joke, telling men to back off of women who are too drunk at frat parties, etc. ]]> 2021-11-04 21:19:10 UTC https://padlet.com/livelise11/o28n2n5cix581ln8/wish/1868477933 https://padlet.com/livelise11/o28n2n5cix581ln8/wish/1868478088 To combat rules of "normal masculinity" there needs to be more education for people on why pieces of it are toxic to start.

The more it is called out, the less normalized and accepted it will be in society.]]> 2021-11-04 21:19:21 UTC https://padlet.com/livelise11/o28n2n5cix581ln8/wish/1868478325 vszenzensteinunc https://padlet.com/livelise11/o28n2n5cix581ln8/wish/1868478515 We can simply protest or make it known to the university that there needs to be consequences to the crimes committed. It is NOT normal to rape girls and we need to stop allowing it to be seen as a usual frat thing. Universities should hold these organizations accountable and the students instead of allowing them to continue to stay on campus.]]> 2021-11-04 21:19:31 UTC https://padlet.com/livelise11/o28n2n5cix581ln8/wish/1868478515 We can combat toxic masculinity by calling it out when we see it. By calling it out we let people know that exhibiting behaviors of toxic masculinity aren't good and we don't let it be normalized. yateslizm https://padlet.com/livelise11/o28n2n5cix581ln8/wish/1868478584 2021-11-04 21:19:35 UTC https://padlet.com/livelise11/o28n2n5cix581ln8/wish/1868478584 Letting adult men in leadership position teach other men the right thing to do.

Everyone knows fraternities are bad, but there's still a line to get in. No amount of instagram infographics will do anything if you're still giving them the social capital they and actual capital they run off of. ]]> 2021-11-04 21:20:14 UTC https://padlet.com/livelise11/o28n2n5cix581ln8/wish/1868479400 https://padlet.com/livelise11/o28n2n5cix581ln8/wish/1868480310 Calling out fraternities should shed light on the toxic aspects and make it a conversation as opposed to something that everyone knows but is not spoken about
