E126: A Better Framework For Gender Roles with Dr. Pia De Solenni

Are men and women really that different? What if I don’t fit into the normal gender roles? Is having children and raising a family actually worth it? It is no secret that there is much confusion in the culture regarding gender and family and a growing disdain for the traditional vision of the complementarity of men and women. Today I sit down with Dr. Pia de Solenni, moral theologian and ethicist, to discuss the intricacies of masculine and feminine complementarity and family life. We discuss the philosophical roots of gender confusion, the fears that people have regarding raising children, the nuances of gender roles within the family, the need to evangelize with a spirit of love rather than judgement, the necessity for churches to support the formation of parents, and much more.
