Nice Guys Suffer At Work But They Succeed At Home

At least, that’s what David Mayer, a professor of business at the University of Michigan, posited in his recent article “How Men Get Penalized For Straying From Masculine Norms”. “Research demonstrates that men too face backlash when they don’t adhere to masculine gender stereotypes,” wrote Mayer. “When they show vulnerability, act nicer, display empathy, express sadness, exhibit modesty, and proclaim to be feminists.” This raises a different question: If men are punished for straying from accepted gender norms, is the equal and opposite true in the other major arena of their life: at home?...

Nicolas Cage Is Officially Playing The Tiger King In A Tv Series

Apparently, the idea of Nicolas Cage bringing his particular set of talents to the role of Joe Exotic was so perfect that even Nicolas Cage couldn’t resist it. Cage has signed on to play the zookeeper/musician/polyamorist/political candidate/convicted felon in an eight-episode limited series. It’s not just that Cage is a great choice to play Joe Exotic; it’s that once you hear their names in the same sentence it’s clear that he’s the only choice to play Joe Exotic, the kind of idiosyncratic, complex character Cage has always knocked out of the park....

Parents Think Kids In The College Admissions Scandal Should Be Expelled

We know this: The behavior of parents who insist on clearing a path to success for kids is often damaging to those same children. Children need to fail or succeed independently in order to attain real personal success. It is an act of selfishness to hoard agency and it leaves children helpless in the face of reality. That’s not a statement of moral principle. Research strongly indicates that this is fact....

Look at how most children under the age of six behave, and it doesn’t take long to see: The kids are not okay. The children are not going to save us....

That doesn’t mean silence isn’t tempting. Giuliani shares a story about debating gay marriage with her dad when she was 12. “I distinctly remember him firing back with an intensity fit for an opposing politician rather than one’s child,” she recalls, matter-of-factly, what sounds like a traumatic childhood experience. Over the years, debates on race, sexism, policing, and the social safety net ended similarly. “I imagine many Americans can relate to the helpless feeling this confrontation cycle created in me, but we are not helpless....
