Woman's Hour

16/12/2009

With Jenni Murray. We look at what the Noughties have, or haven't, done for women. Sex and sexual imagery is everywhere, but what effect has the sexualisation of our culture had on the way women are viewed and how they feel about themselves? Professor Tanya Byron, journalist and writer Yvonne Roberts and Ellie Levenson, author of the Noughties Guide to Feminism, share their perspectives. And as women's lives have changed, what about men's lives? Are men suffering an identity crisis and do they now need a Men's Movement? Jenni is joined by Richard Reeves, director of Demos, and Ben Wild, who set up a Mens Society at Manchester University. And as we look back at the pressures and developments of the last decade, do women need to reframe their expectations for the next ten years?
