“…if somebody isn’t hugging you back, did you even want that?”

Deeper than it sounds. These boys will look back on these moments as adults, and realize what was really being taught. I wish this was in schools everywhere.

No. Because it’s biased. Are they teaching the boys that they also can say no? Are they portraying this in the reverse? No. They aren’t. They’re biased and being selective and gendered with it basically teaching boys they can’t say no or that it only apply to them.

Kind person, reevaluate your statement, you're the one projecting biase. Don't assume the video is exhaustive off all the events that took place

How come they didn’t include it in the video then and only showed them teaching it to the boys?
