RSVP for #StopSexism Weekly Calls
The fat man and the skinny wife.
The damsel in distress.
The “one-woman-maybe-two-in-the-whole-damn-film” trend.
What has Hollywood learned in the past 70 years that has transformed or transcended society?
And what have women and men done to turn around sexism against women, men, the transgender community, sexual tropes, and the balance of discrimination in music videos, sitcoms, video games, and commercials?
Join Gretchen Kelly and me as we navigate all the aspects of PopSexism in culture and society.
Talk to you Monday night! 7:30 PM EST.

RSVP for #StopSexism Weekly Calls
The #StopSexism Social Interest Group aims to address the issues of everyday sexism, identify contributing factors, and discuss the implications and effects of sexism. We will hold weekly calls by phone, and together will explore ideas to combat inequality, gender bias, and society’s expectations.
The group is led by The Good Men Project editor Jeremy McKeen and writer Gretchen Kelly. We will connect via the #StopSexism Social Interest Group Facebook page for dialogue and community building.
The weekly conference calls will be avenue for deeper conversation and for coming up with innovative plans to counter sexism on the ground at the grassroots level. Weekly conference calls take place every Monday at 7:30 EST.
RSVP for the #StopSexism SIG HERE
