Modern Manhood: The Podcast

Episode 2 - Pinkie and the Blue Boy

Episode Summary

In the continuation of our series titled "How to be a Man" we explore the nature of bias. Is bias useful? Is it dangerous? Does it help explain why boys wear blue and girls wear pink? We speak to Michael Reichert author of many books including "How to Raise a Boy" as well as a PhD in cognitive psychologist and neuroscientist Danielle Perszyk.
