Understanding Male Psychology with Angelo De Boni

Send us Fan MailIn this episode we get to grips with men's psychology by highlighting  how men respond to scarcity and lack of opportunities in an unbalanced society like South Africa. We discuss how the female dominated counselling and therapy industry has somehow overlooked and misunderstood the male lived experience and how we can create space for men to connect with each other, Angelo shares an interesting idea on what leads men to go rogue and choose to isolate themselves because of the backlash and negative language associated with male behaviour.  We close off by unpacking the perceived  gender gap between teenage boys and girls in South Africa.    Vincent is a South African independent registered professional counselor with HPCSA and now based in Sweden. He is a passionate creative, who has chosen psychology to find expression for his view of the post-Aparthied South Africa and the problems faced by men in a post-conflict era. For three decades he has reflected his ideas through his art and is now finding a voice through the useful constructs of modern psychology. Vincent is married with no children by choice but is conscientious of the world that adolescents are seeing.
