“Boys will be boys.”

We’ve all heard it a thousand times. It’s been used to ignore or excuse aggressive or stereotypical behaviour from boys or men. But what are we really saying, when we use that phrase? That boys are one way, that they can’t grow, that we shouldn’t expect much from them? How limiting can that be?

What if boys could be so much more than what they’ve been told they could be, or should be?

Join Next Gen Men for an online screening of Boys Will Be…Themselves, a new Canadian documentary created by Dylan Rhys Howard that explores the ways masculinity is evolving and changing in the 21st Century.

After the screening, stick around for small group discussions (if you've been to one of our Circle events, you know we love our break-out rooms!), and then a Q+A with the film's director! 🧡

See you then!

Tickets are by donation! All proceeds from ticket sales go to supporting the continued work of Next Gen Men in building a future where boys & men feel less pain, and cause less harm.
