A short YouTube conversation (uploaded by Anne Truong MD on March 16, 2024) where two speakers discuss "Nice Guy Syndrome." Speaker B defines it as a concept popularized by Dr. Robert Glover and describes it as a set of behaviors resembling codependency that has contributed to harmful patterns in men's behavior and broader cultural damage.

So tell me about the Nice Guy syndrome, what that is and how that is creating challenges for men nowadays.
Yeah. So Nice Guy Syndrome is a concept popularized by Dr. Robert Glover, who's a mentor of mine. And really, it's kind of a collection of behaviors that manifest as a certain type of codependency. For a long time, many men grew up around other men who just went for what they wanted, took what they wanted, whether that was from the environment, whether that was from women, whatever that might be. And that's caused a lot of damage in society and culture for all kinds of different reasons.
