Male violence is omnipresent. Whether in relationships, at work, in public places or in dark corners: it is usually men who destroy, hurt, rob, murder, attack others, exercise power and control, who seek to defend their crumbling dominance at all costs. They pose a threat to themselves and their environment, and yet always believe themselves to be in the right, the measure of all things. Ultimately, this toxic behaviour also reveals that some men have never learned how to deal constructively with conflicts, disputes and rejection or to reflect critically on themselves and the privileges associated with male socialisation.
The authors spent a year collecting screenshots from the orf.at homepage in order to document the wide variety of offences committed by men. They provide the basis for a multi-layered discussion that draws on documentary, literary and scientific elements and creates a hybrid text format.
Trigger warning: DU HERBERT deals with acts of male violence and works with explicit descriptions of femicide, suicide and sexualised or domestic violence.
