This week on Boy Problems, Liz is angry — and she's not apologizing for it. In the wake of the Cornell 57 case, she breaks down why women's rage is no longer remarkable, but the absence of male rage absolutely is. She recounts a wild story from a recent conference where she was asked to moderate a panel on "raising boys into better men" — only to flip the script, give the women in the room (including Malala) an hour of rest, and grill the men instead. Ten years after starting #WhyWomenDontReport, Liz grapples with how little has changed, has a literal menty-b mid episode, and finds unexpected solace in the strength of women and the men who actually show up. If this hit you, drop a 🔥 in the comments — and tell us how you're channeling your rage this week.
