“New York University psychology professor Niobe Way, who has spent decades interviewing adolescent boys, points to the cultural messages boys get early on.

“These are human beings with unbelievable emotional and social capacity. And we as a culture just completely try to zip it out of them,” she says.

This week on Hidden Brain, we look at what happens when half the population gets the message that needing others is a sign of weakness and that being vulnerable is unmanly.”
