	Description:		Why are we telling little boys to be “less aggressive”? Why are we encouraging young women to “not need a man”? And how as a parent can you navigate through these shifting gender norms? In today’s episode, Albert and I explore the dynamics of masculinity and femininity, particularly in the context of parenting. We discuss how societal expectations for boys to be less assertive and for young women to assume multiple roles, including provider and protector, are shaping childhood development and adult relationships. We delve into the implications of these shifting gender norms, including the rise in adult loneliness and the challenges of navigating less defined relationships.
