“Arnie – The Local Legend” – Advice for Adolescent Boys on How to Treat Women Respectfully

“Arnie – A local legend”

Ironically, during the sexting unit, a local guy named Arnie passed away and I learned about it through Facebook, of course. Arnie was known for treating women respectfully. He was a regular at a local western dance club in town called the OK Corral. The girls there loved him.

My group worked on setting up a seminar/discussion/workshop for adolescent girls, but had our group done the boys instead I think that this video could have been helpful because I think that with boys it’s about showing them what healthy relationships with women look like. Showing them how to respect women and not treat them like sexualized objects. Arnie talks about dancing with women. He talks about being in a committed relationship and making sacrifices in order to make it work. I feel like he has a lot to teach adolescent boys today.
