Fade Out: Conversations for Men
Welcome to the Fade Out Barbershop, a space for men to hang out, relax and get to the root of some of the big things on their minds. What do you do when someone you like rejects you? Why can it be so awkward to ask your partner what they like during sex? How do you tell a mate they’ve crossed a line? Should our partners have a say in what we see online? How do you tell someone you don’t feel like yourself? Join Callum MacPherson, your host and barber, as he has some honest chats with a line up of Riverland blokes about the everyday issues that young men have to deal with. Get ready to leave this barbershop with some fresh perspectives to go with your fresh cut. Fade Out is an initiative of the Riverland Domestic Violence Action Group. If you would like to get involved in community initiatives, you can email dvagriverland@gmail.com. Fade Out is supported by White Ribbon Australia and funded by the Department of Social Services.
