The four -part series via Netflix would not need much introduction, since the world, not only digitally, was arrested by Philip Barantinis “adolescence” in the past few weeks. Keir Starrer, the sitting British Prime Minister, met the creator Early this week. He supported Netflix’s decision to make the series available free of charge in British schools. Not only that, British schools are reportedly floating Anti-misogynia lessons In her curriculum “follow” the immense success of the series.
However, this is not the first attempt by Britain to deal with the growing difficulties on the feminist front. What seems to be the hour? How has “adolescence” widespread? Is the sensitization of the sexes a concern for young people?
Cultural effects of adolescence: a wake -up call for schools
“Adolescence” tells the story of a 13-year-old perpetrator. His greatest success is not in the single-take episodes (which is already an incredible performance) or the great performance of a debut children’s actor, but in his concise presentation of a decaying school system. The world of a child mainly belongs to this institution – its teachers and colleagues.

In the second episode, it becomes clear that the teachers are no longer in their depths that the students are lost in an unpredictable world of power games and a large part of their education belongs to the digital space from which the adult world is largely separated. A survey by published by UNICEF 1 out of 8 girls experienced rape or sexual attacks worldwide 18 years ago. The same data is not so easily available for boys. At a young age, sensitization is of the utmost importance not only to prepare for the future, but to combat its very vulnerable presence. The navigation of the youth is a very difficult trip. They have to be prepared with the right information – not only in relation to the physiological aspects of your journey, but also the social and political experience, to go into one or the other gender.
Great Britain had submitted a legislative template last year to limit young people ‘ non -regulated Access to the Internet. Finally, it was watered down for political benefits. It is important to talk about the world that is briefly addressed in the series – the manosphere that takes on the vulnerable and lonely young heads that are lost in the identity of masculinity. In a recent address in Oxford, Slavs Zizek spoke about the gentle fascist state and the zeitgeist of shamelessness. Zizek’s philosophical treatise on the shamelessness of this present society is based on the political actions and speeches that have exceeded the limits of adequacy and the proper process. While this hypothesis deserves to be thoroughly examined, it is obvious that the general shamelessness, which is permitted online due to relative anonymity, has also changed the way in which female hostility and patriarchy appear.
Unfortunately, this behavior is not limited to the digital world and transfers to the real world, often as disadvantageous measures. We also have to take a moment to process what the law proposed, and ask social media companies “to rule out young teenagers from algorithms in order to make content less addicted to under 16 year olds.” What kind of sense does that do? Do we think that an algorithm that urges harmful and addictive content into the rest of the world would not reach a younger audience? Don’t we yet understand how the ban works? We will also continue to poison the world with extremist and polarizing algorithms, but expect that teenagers in specially designed cocoon algorithm in specially designed cocoon. That definitely sounds like a foolproof plan.
Digital manosphere and the rise of online hostility
What makes “adolescence” frustrating and possibly brilliant is when you draw attention to the periphery of central history. From gender behavior and hierarchies to informal sexism and potentially criminal behavior – throughout the series, the messaging of the adult world is with what the boys learn. From the detective to the consultant to mother – we see women who carefully manage and bypass aggressive masculinity and misogynistic behavior.
While the adults seem to be shocked to discover the world of the manosphere, it is not determined that the favorable conditions were created by the same generation and the previous generations for the misogynal vermin. While we find ways to educate young people about misogyny, it would be important to make this bitter patriarchal world in any small way we can do and remedy. The greatest failure of the series and in the broader sense was the world that observed that it was unable to recognize that gender is one of the strictest social integration processes, and the upbringing of a young girl is not the same as that of a boy. We do not enable you with the same facilities or give you the same room exactly what you are – children.
Like most things on the Internet, “adolescence” has also divided the Internet, albeit unevenly. The committed citizens of the manosphere have a largely hormonal reaction, which is not too surprising. The creator of the show, Philip Barantini, also talked about the counter reaction with which he was confronted online. But it is also funny to see the other side of the reaction, adults stand out about young people in the current state of affairs, as if the world in which we present them is not violent. Both reactions indicate that changes can only be sown at the earliest age – before they have started to accept the world’s gender dictation.
But who will deliver such training? Is an anti-misogynia curriculum the answer to the teaching of boys how to “behave”? Or is it a feminist curriculum revision that would be the call of the hour? But who will bring it? People in power – are they not casual and systematic sexist? Why is the question of masculinity in terms of misogyny? Will the other not exist without a gender? Is the question no longer a gender as a misogyny or masculinity?
Does the adolescence answer the crisis fully?
Here “adolescence” does not objectively not address the problem that it promised. Baranteni selected four windows or perspectives to tell the story. The legal system, the school system, the perpetrator and the parents. While the narrative acts as a fantastic tool to make the three systems aware of the fate of a young person, it does not tell the history of the present protagonists – the teenager and their perspective. The beautifully rendered episode between the protagonist and the consultant is technically an exemplary television. But it hardly scratches the surface of the confusion, despair and susceptibility of young people – the physical and digital realities. At the end of four episodes, the narrative cannot pull anyone out of the lonely stereotypes.

The victim’s story Bois changing room. We have only started to enter their world at school, but we are rude from it and cannot immerse ourselves in the reality of adolescence in the present age. In the last episode, the show asked a crucial question and could not answer it immediately – how did the daughter of the same family, which the perpetrator emerges from completely different? In a self -operating answer, the parents tell each other that they used the same resources and the same approach, but the Boy turned out to be how he did it And the girl as she did. It is a ridiculously essential approach that plays into the hands of the exact stereotypical, which made the world of the inclusion and other varieties of misogynistic place. The loneliness and isolation of boys who have to struggle with the idea of masculinity is the fertile reason for the Incel culture to grow roots. Gender is not a predisposition; It is a conditioning that you will be processed rigoros – from home to school to the Internet.
The exhibition is to be created free of charge in Great Britain in Great Britain in completely schools and educational institutions, as ordained by the government. These are great news. A fantastic starter. We hope the same will happen in India. But is it open to young boys open and safe to share what they are going through? Will it bring changes in the peer interaction? If we focus on the upcoming content, is it really the need to grow up as a little boy in our society? Is there space to understand them? Or does it only drive the problem that localized – isolation, guilt and stereotyping? (not necessarily in this order)
Great Britain had previously initiated a misogynistic curriculum. It is obviously a slow maintenance. The problem with our designs is that we do not listen to the users or consumers of this design. What would an anti-misogynia curriculum look like? Another added value? We all know how it went for us at school. Yes, we definitely have to raise awareness at a young age – for your own security and so that you are better colleagues. But none of this will work if we don’t enter your world and ask you what you need. We have to open the window that Barantenis has not done work – we have to listen and understand your emergency in your language. It has to be participatory and up-to-time-then we can start designing a curriculum that has a chance to combat the chaos that adults have created in their gender world.
