While I agree with your position (politically), it takes all sorts and he certainly knows how to push some ladies buttons!
Largely thanks to feminism, I think we’ve made real advances when it comes to masculinity with the current generation of young adults and teens ‘gen z’ having a much less binary view of gender. I think ultimately (for all that I also roll my eyes and get irritated by some of the wokeisms at times) that a more fluid interpretation of gender as a spectrum will massively help men (and women) of gen alpha and subsequent generations.
Due to a strange shift that I worked 3-11PM and then unemployment, I was a househusband for my Son’s early years. My Wife at the time worked mornings so I had him all to myself for a few hours each day. I loved it. Although the shift was a pain as I missed his bedtimes all week, at least I got to put him to bed at weekends.
I never got the impression that people thought of me as a ‘soft rice’ person though. Although I was nervous the first couple of times I went to Mums and Tots group at our church. Many years later I actually helped out there on Monday mornings when I worked permanent nights.
Could go in a variety of threads, parenting particularly. But here it goes. You might not like the host, fine. But his guest’s knowledge on the subject is fascinating. Title is wrong, it’s the biology of gender behaviour.
It’s all about chimps and their development. How they play, what they play, why they play and the blatant differences between boys and girls from a young age. That’s why it’s good here, parenting, sexual identity / gender etc. Some claim that the way kids grow up is entirely down to social pressure. No question this is true for chimps, boys fight and girls fuss after babies and pretend to carry them.
