10. Are Men Animals? Defining Masculinity and Gender with Dr Matthew Gutmann A Partial Perspective

#10 | Are Men Animals? Defining Masculinity and Gender with Dr Matthew Gutmann

In this episode, I discuss masculinity with Dr Matthew Gutmann—Professor of Anthropology at Brown University. We discuss the themes he talks about in his latest book: Are Men Animals? How Modern Masculinity Sells Men Short. One main point he makes is that there is a diversity of masculinities in all times and places, and turning to biological explanations falls short of actually understanding the roots of the behavioral dimensions of gender.
