Podcast on men historically being the teachers?

[Invicta]

I was debating a friend on the importance of male influence on children. I remember about a year ago Steph mentioned a theory that before the development of agriculture, tribal women only raised the babies and toddlers. Once children could were big enough they would send them to the men for instruction.

Does anyone remember the title of the podcast or the study he was referencing?

your friend doesn't think that men are important or valuable for children???

I went to a meeting about my son at school with the principal, a counselor, and all of his teachers. I was the only male present except for the math teacher.

She asked for some source material on the claim. I was surprised to find no results on internet searches. There's hardly any information on tge benefits of male instruction. No one remembers the podcast about this?

From 'The Origins of War in Child Abuse - Chapter 7 - Child Abuse, Homicide, and Raids in Tribes' by Lloyd DeMause.

 

00:14:09 - "Physical contact with the wife is avoided and separate sleeping areas are maintained by husbands. A gynarchy, composed of the mother, grandmother, and other mothers, brings up the children, so the boys have little contact with males in their early years and are utterly ambiguous about their gender. Archeologists have even determined that 'There were no neanderthal families to begin with since women and children lived in separate areas from the men in caves.' This arrangement was practiced, historically, from tribal cultures into early states, even in antiquity."
