Welcome to Episode 76 of the Being Human Podcast: Gender Fluidity or Complementarity? (Part Two) This week, Dr. Greg continues the conversation from Episode #75 on our purpose in being created as male and female, exploring a Catholic vision of complementarity as ordered towards unity between men and women, and breaking open why we need the opposite sex to attain holiness. (Note: Mature Content) Discussed in this episode: The Catholic vision of the human person, created as male and female and ordered towards a purpose;  How we are a theology in our masculinity and femininity, with a capacity for fruitfulness stamped into our genetic code from the moment of our conception. Giving the gift of ourselves and receiving the gift of others, and how we are changed through this reciprocity of gift;  Marriage as a path to holiness, and why we need the opposite sex to attain that holiness;  The reason the call to celibacy is a supernatural vocation;   The Catholic “both and” of complementarity and equality;  How the differences in our brain as male and female give us a natural affinity towards certain skill sets; Resources mentioned or relevant:  Sign up for insider information about our new certification launching in the Fall; Listen to episode #75, the first in this series: Gender Fluidity or Complementarity?  Ch. 17 of the Theology of the Body (see pg. 43): Man and Woman: A Gift for Each Other  Love and Responsibility by Karol Wojtyla (Pope John Paul II) On the Masculine Genius, an article by Dr. Greg published in Humanum Quarterly Review; Watch Fruitfulness is Not a Pillar of the Theology of the Body on YouTube;  Learn more about complementarity and the masculine and feminine genius in Dr. Greg’s relationships course: A Marriage Built to Last; Become a member of the Integrated Life Community to get access to every course Dr. Greg has created, AND the opportunity to participate in Integrated Life Intensives: time-limited, group experiences covering topics like boundaries, communication, trauma, forgiveness, and more!  Learn about IDDM (Mentorship), our new model of accompaniment; Need help?
