Ruth Whippman is an author and journalist who writes a lot about present-day cultural issues. She is also the author of the new book BoyMom: Reimagining Boyhood in the Age of Impossible Masculinity.
In this episode, I got a chance to talk to her about the ways that boys are often held to contradictory expectations in modern society, the difficulty of establishing a clear legal definition of consent, and the level of emotional vulnerability that incels often display towards each other.
