Teenage girls across the North East are speaking out about terrifying levels of misogyny in schools—boys making “rape lists,” threatening violence disguised as jokes, and forcing girls to alter their daily lives just to feel safe. With alarming rates of violence against women and girls in the region, experts warn unchecked attitudes could normalize abuse, even in early relationships. Charities demand better education on consent and boundaries, while toxic masculinity fueled by social media influencers worsens the problem. The government is stepping in with new teacher training starting September, aiming to tackle the issue head-on. Meanwhile, brave girls behind a viral campaign hope their stories will ignite change, pushing society toward healthier, more respectful interactions for everyone.
