PLEASE SUBSCRIBE TO THE RELATIONSCAPES PODCAST INSTEAD OF FIRESIDE!

We grow up swimming in gender stereotypes: men are from Mars, women are from Venus. Men are rational and women are emotional. The binary cliches are everywhere, but are they true?

Daphna Joel is a neuroscientist who wanted to know what the science actually says. When she looked at real brains she discovered that each person carries a unique mix of traits, a true mosaic that defies the old binary.

Daphna Joel joins us to talk about her groundbreaking book "Gender Mosaic: Beyond the Myth of the Male and Female Brain."
