I didn’t see it myself, I’m just going off that statement above. Again though, he doesn’t say in that statement that Tim Peak, Gareth Bale, Lewis Hamilton etc don’t exist as positive role models for boys, what it says is many boys role models are ‘increasingly’ criminal, not ‘totally’ criminal. Sure, but like, is there any actual evidence for this, or is this purely just vibes man? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ingram85 Posted November 27, 2021 Share Posted November 27, 2021 It’s utter out of touch nonsense of course considering the multitude of positive male role models there are but I took it more to be talking about dealing with the lack of original female role models by clumsily retconning traditionally male characters into females. I.e Dr Who, Ghostbusters, potentially Bond etc… Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
