Listener phone in: Boys - what's it's like to be one in 2024?

On today's Woman's Hour phone-in we ask what it's like to be a boy in 2024 and how society is shaping our future men.

On Monday we spoke to Catherine Carr about her Radio 4 series About the Boys. She spoke to boys up and down the country about how they felt about subjects like sex and consent, masculinity, friendship, life online and education and she found out that boys were experiencing confusing and often troubling messages about their role in society. She joins us, along with Richard Reeves, the President of the American Institute for Boys and Men to take your calls about boys.

Please get in touch with your experiences and thoughts about boys; from bringing them up to being one.

The phone lines open at 0800 on Friday 3 May. Call us on 03700 100 444 or you can text the programme - the number is 84844. Texts will be charged at your standard message rate. On social media we're @BBCWomansHour. And you can email us through our website.
