DEBATE: Why Do Gen Z Women Hate Men So Much? - #1094
Modern Wisdom
Beauty is status women may protect
William Costello argues attractiveness is an underacknowledged privilege, especially for women, and motherhood can feel costly because it threatens that status.
In this evolutionary psychology debate, we explore:
- Why women feel much more negatively towards young men than young men feel about them.
- Why men are more often demonised and women are seen as victims.
- How differing political views are quietly becoming one of the biggest relationship dealbreakers for young people.
- and much more...
Guests
- Freya India is a writer and journalist focused on female mental health and modern culture.
- William Costello is a psychology researcher and Ph.D. student specialising in evolutionary psychology.
- Dr. Tania Reynolds is an Assistant Professor in Psychology at the University of New Mexico.
