However, the APA is attempting to use this argument as a means of demonstrating that there is a \u2018new normal\u2019 post-modern behavioral standard of \u2018masculinity\u2019 &#8211; and that the old norms are socially harmful and destructive.<\/p>\n<p>Most notably, in the APA\u2019s \u2018striving\u2019 to arrive at its \u2018conclusions,\u2019 it is difficult not to notice that the term \u2018strive\u2019 is used dozens of times in the guideline, clearly implying an agenda rather than an earnest effort at research related to reality.  In their attempt to socially \u2018castrate\u2019 the true norms of masculinity, the authors of the APA guidelines have succeeded only in castrating concepts, which, significantly, has been their goal all along.<\/p>\n<p>From our point of view, what would be Just Right is a psychological assessment of the American Psychological Association \u2013 but no one seems to have the balls to do it.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Audio only (Length edited for broadcast) When is a cigar just a cigar?
