“Understanding the socially constructed aspects of masculinities & how they affect boys & men is an important cultural competency. Psychologists should strive to recognize that masculinities are constructed based on social, cultural, & contextual norms.”https://www.nytimes.com/2019/01/17/opinion/apa-guidelines-men-boys.html …

Both sides wrong. One in denial about genetic behavioural differences + evolution by sexual selection. Other glossing over gene/environment interactions, & worse; denial of cultural evolution and its ability to affect human mind & behaviour. Silly boys think APA stealing manhood!
Nobody in evolutionary psych denies cultural evolution; we often have symposia about it at @HumBehEvoSoc.

NOBODY (except vocal minority of ideological+delusional extremists) claims there aren’t innate or genetic behavioural differences. But differences are *on average* and feeling pressure to conform when you are not that average person is what many are calling “toxic“.

Well not you and your colleagues. But some very silly people in this spat talking like “masculinity” means same thing for everyone everywhere and APA want to take it away from them.
