When it was founded over 450 years ago in 1572, women were expected to be submissive second class citizens in a patriarchal society.
But in 2026, Harrow School, one of the oldest and most famous all boys' schools in the world, has vowed to fight against a new wave of men trying to subjugate women.
Its Head Master Alastair Land says the school is tackling the growing problem of toxic masculinity and how its messaging has spread to young men with a new education programme for its pupils to look at its causes and address them.

Speaking exclusively to the Mail on Sunday after announcing the £63,000 a year school was officially partnering with an all-girls school for the first time in its history, Mr Land said: 'We are tackling toxic masculinity head on and clear eyed by looking at the manosphere and misogyny with our pupils.'
