Summary: Ron Levant Ed.D. suggests that the North American male suffers to some degree from cultural conditioning which causes men to repress their vulnerable and caring emotions causing them to become underdeveloped in emotional expressiveness; a condition called Normative Male Alexithymia. On today’s program we explore men and their emotions. Dr. Levant is a past-President of American Psychological Association, and is the Editor of the journal “Psychology of Men and Masculinity.” He is currently Professor of Psychology, The University of Akron.
