Breaking the Male Code: Unlocking the Power of Friendship
For much of the past century, says Rob Garfield ’67, men have operated under the rules of the Male Code, which equates masculinity with stoicism, silence, and strength. As a result, some men suffer from depression and feelings of isolation because they do not know how to express their emotions. In Breaking the Male Code: Unlocking the Power of Friendship, Garfield, a psychiatrist, urges men to abandon traditional ideas of masculinity and offers a step-by-step guide to starting and deepening their male friendships so they can lead happier and healthier lives.
