From the time they are toddlers
to the point when they become men, their loud, aggressive and sometimes
violent ways are often dismissed with the notion that “boys
will be boys”. But what does that, actually, mean? Is it
true that “boys” are predestined to behave in a certain
way? And, if so, how? Even as our society becomes less willing
to tolerate the bad behavior the old cliché was often used
to condone, the attitude still prevails that says boys/men should
be strong, silent and resilient. But are they “naturally” so?
The Trouble With Boys explores the
fascinating new health science which indicates that males and females
are biologically inclined to behave in certain ways. |
