Mallyship – Men in Feminism: Why, Anyway? And How Does It Work?

The online lecture on November 16 will focus on critical masculinity in higher education. The Office of Equal Opportunity cordially invites you to join us in discussing what masculinity has to do with gender equality—and what men can specifically do to contribute. Navigating the tension between privileged positions, well-meaning intentions, and the question “What am I supposed to do now?” we’ll explore together how men can take responsibility and become allies.

Tobias Spiegelberg from Detox Identity will share personal experiences, feminist perspectives, and practical ideas. We’ll talk about sexism, dominant speech patterns, homophobic remarks, and boundary violations—and how we can handle these issues differently in our everyday university life.

No prior knowledge required. All you need is a desire for reflection, discussion, and a bit of uncomfortable thinking.
