#67 | Is There a Natural Hierarchy Between Men and Women?

About This Episode

In this episode I dissect the meaning behind some hot-button words like hierarchy, authority, and patriarchy to showcase that many of our misunderstandings are a product of nomenclature discrepancies and misinterpretations, not malicious intent.

Danish Author Tor Nørretranders has an important insight in his work, The User Illusion, about how as humans we feel more than we know and we know more than we can say. Therefore based on the fact that what is said is a tiny fraction of a larger picture of feeling, misinterpretations happen so easily and consistently.

Based on that I get into some important questions including is hierarchy and authority a bad thing? a good thing? How do we interpret this?
