From Alicia: As a woman, I have often overlooked concerns about male identity and the meaning of modern-day masculinity. This interview got me asking questions I'd never thought to ask before (and I do ask a lot of questions, so that's saying something!) While I don't agree with everything that was said, it showed me a new angle on humanity and gender norms, which I have normally looked at through a more feminist lens. And while everyone has biases, I appreciated Richard's acknowledgement of his own blind spots and his efforts to stay objective. Most of all, I enjoyed the conversational style and the two presenters' comfort with leaving some questions unanswered, simply as musings.
I can't access the full paper but here's a little addendum contesting the idea that women are more risk-averse than men, at least in a work setting.
