5. Young people and the emerging gender divide
From incels to Andrew Tate, young people are increasingly exposed to debates around gender when online.
This week, Vicki is joined by Rosie Campbell, professor of politics and director of the Global Institute for Women's Leadership at King's College London to discuss the topic of gender in the digital age.
Talking points:
- What do we really mean when we talk of the ‘gender divide’?
- How is social media making the topic of gender more polarised, and more profitable (for some)?
- What’s the relationship between views on gender and who we vote for at the polls?
