Come see The Argument LIVE in D.C. (with Darby Saxbe)
We'll discuss fatherhood and how it changes men
The Argument is holding another live event, this time on June 17 in Washington, D.C.!
Jerusalem Demsas will be interviewing USC psychologist Darby Saxbe about her new book, Dad Brain: The New Science of Fatherhood and How It Shapes Men’s Lives. Drawing on two decades of research, Darby explains how becoming a father changes men, from their hormones and brain architecture to their sense of purpose. (Yes, men experience postpartum depression, and “dad bod” is real.)
They’ll get into hot-button topics like:
Are great dads born or made?
How do men’s brains and hormones change when they become fathers?
Why does motherhood get all the attention while fatherhood goes overlooked?
Does the way dads play with their kids matter?
The conversation kicks off at 7 p.m. at Politics and Prose (5015 Connecticut Ave. NW).
