Boys: The Weaker Sex?

Focusing on behavior and learning ability, this program asserts that male brain structure and chemistry, in combination with the traditional concept of masculinity, are a liability to the socialization and maturation of boys. Psychological, anatomical, and sociological research and case studies lend support to this hypothesis, as do Bruce Pirie, author of Reshaping High School English; controversial child psychologist Sebastian Kraemer; and the University of Pennsylvania’s Ruben Gur. Evolutionary biology, the effects of prenatal androgens on the brain, male peer pressure, and the use of role play and panel discussions in the classroom to promote emotional expression and understanding are discussed. A Discovery Channel Production. (51 minutes)
