Ep - 12 - Dr. Robert Tyminski - Disconnected: Young Men, Cyberspace, Masculinity, & Gender Identity
Description
In this Episode of Conversations for the End. We explore how online spaces—from social media to algorithm-driven platforms—are reshaping the way young men understand masculinity, identity, and connection. Drawing on themes from Netflix’s Adolescence and Tyminski’s own clinical work, we examine the breakdown of traditional modes of communication, the confusion around gender identity, and the deep sense of dislocation many young men experience today.This conversation offers critical insight into the unconscious forces at play in the lives of boys and young men, and the cultural shifts that are leaving many of them feeling lost, angry, or unheard.CONTENTS OF EPISODE0:00 Intro03:30 The Apocolpse facing young men08:00 Masculinity on the internet.17:00 Detatchment from the reality 21:00 Magical Thinking Online24:15 Netflix’s Adolescence 35:00 Young men as monsters and communication 50:00 Jungian Approach to Gender Identity Find out more about Dr Tyminski below:https://www.roberttyminski.com/Gender Identity Research Paper:https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/abs/10.1111/1468-5922.13041Instagram: ConversationsfortheendTikTok: Conversationsfortheend
