Episode description

The American Psychological Association came out with new guidelines for Boys & Men and how to deal with them in therapy, counseling, etc.  The biggest takeaway for us is that the APA specifically mentioned four traits in which they deemed "on the whole, harmful".  Since facing backlash and pushback, the APA through it's Division 51, severely walked back their statements to the point that they are diverting, being untruthful, and not saying a whole heck of a lot.
