OVERVIEW

Background Text

Situation Brief:

The Unstereotype Alliance aims to challenge harmful gender stereotypes in advertising, but research shows a significant mismatch between how men define success and how it's portrayed in media. Gen Z men are particularly affected, with regressive gender attitudes and declining mental health on the rise.

Objectives:

- Reimagine success as defined by who you are, not what you have

- Showcase diverse, authentic representations of masculinity

- Engage Gen Z men in a positive, constructive conversation

- Drive brand equity and sales power through culturally impactful advertising

Media Insights:

- Gen Z men spend most of their downtime in digital spaces (YouTube, Reddit, gaming, social media)

- 94% of Gen Z will stream video in 2023, with YouTube and Netflix as top platforms

- Podcasts and gaming are gaining popularity among Gen Zers

- Men want ads that make them feel happy, motivated, and inspired, not respected, powerful, and rich.
