Robert Webb: How Not to be a Boy
Вставка

- Actor and writer Robert Webb discusses boyhood, the world of comedy, the relationships that made him the man he is, and the absurd expectations he has encountered along the way.
Webb speaks about many of the topics he covers in his book, How Not To Be A Boy, part memoir and part call-to-arms; Robert Webb takes an irreverent and incisive look at the state of modern masculinity.

As a man, I have to say I like this chap immensely, and what he says makes great good sense.
Love him, great guy.
His response to the question about being bi is almost exactly the answer i give.
What a thoughtful, intelligent, sensitive guy
Be a man, button up your shirt.
I agreed with everything he said up until the point he asserted that men generally being more suited to engineering is made up nonsense. Not true at all and he’s just ignoring reality. Should it be considered wrong for a woman to want to be an engineer. Of course not, but at least the world for what it is, in that there are temperamental patterns for both men and women which somewhat affect their behaviour.
Is it their 'temperamental patterns' or the environment those fields breed? Further, what does temperament have to do with ability in engineering?
Nice strawman. It's a bit more than woman not liking people in their classes. [Edit] I'm going to assume you got that from the first prong of the questions I asked, in which case what you said doesn't really make sense lmao.
@Michael Markowsky Once again, you're pulling arguments out of thin air and attributing them to me. In what way does what I have said so far have anything to do with women not taking classes because they are too fragile? I think you're projecting there bro.
Additionally, I don't think you grasp what the arguments you're trying to defeat are actually saying. If you're referring to the fact that engineering courses have toxic aspects to them, that has nothing to do with the 'fragility' of women. That is akin to victim blaming, the onus is on the toxic environment being toxic. It's really faulty reasoning at best.
@Michael Markowsky ok now we have a claim and an inference from a question I asked. Let's go back to what I asked "Is it their 'temperamental patterns' or the environment those fields breed? Further, what does temperament have to do with ability in engineering?", nothing you have said in your most recent post answers my question nor qualifies anything you have said thus far.
If you're answering my question by stating that women are not taking engineering classes, it misses the point entirely. I am asking very simply: why is that happening? The original poster said it had something to do with temperament. All I have asked for is whether temperament has any reflection on 1. ability and 2. systemic issues within stem fields.
However, if i were to take your answer on board; which can only be an answer to the second aspect of my question, it begs the question. You have simply stated that women are not taking engineering classes because... they are not taking them. I think you've got your wires crossed.
Hmm it kind of feels like Webb does a lot of projecting and just states his views about masculinity as facts without any real explanation
The fact that his dad was abusive has obviously shaped his view of what masculinity is and i feel like every time he’s talking about masculinity he’s just talking about his dad to be honest
Ok Boomer

What did you struggle with in the video?
