Description

Welcome to Episode 77 of the Being Human Podcast: Gender Fluidity or Complementarity? (Part Three) This week, Dr. Greg begins to wrap up his series on gender and the complementarity of men and women. In this episode, he proposes a definition of “genius” (of a masculine or feminine type) and then breaks open the specific brain differences between men and women that lay a foundation for the particular genius of each.  Discussed in this episode: Defining what is meant by the feminine or masculine “genius”; How the differences in our brains as male and female give us a natural affinity towards certain skill sets; The unique ways men and women’s bodies and brains order each towards the creation and protection of new life; How the particular gifts of each sex can also lead to particular weaknesses in each, and the specific qualities that men and women need to learn from each other; Ways our complementarity as men and women can lead us to become better versions of ourselves; How masculine and feminine “genius” qualities are above all human qualities meant to be integrated into our personhood;  Resources mentioned or relevant:   Listen to the first two episodes in this series: Episode #75 (Part One) and Episode #76 (Part Two);  The Female Brain and The Male Brain by Louann Brizendine; Letter to the Bishops of the Catholic Church On the Collaboration of Men and Women in the Church and in the World, by Cardinal Ratzinger; On the Masculine Genius, an article by Dr. Greg published in Humanum Quarterly Review; 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?
