Do Men Struggle with Emotional Intimacy? -- Absurdity Episode 177

It's no secret that men in Western culture tend to struggle with emotional intimacy. It seems almost ingrained in our culture.

We are talking about: -Why emotional intimacy struggles lead to the "nice guy" effect -Why women seem to have an easier time being emotionally intimate with men without a romantic connection -What can be done to help craft a better and safer culture for men to express their feelings and for men and women to establish better boundaries Absurdity is available on all major podcasting platforms and at https://theabsurdity.org Patreon:   / absurdnetwork   Twitter:   / realryanbecker   IG:   / realryanbecker
