The Myth of Male Power
Audio Program / 2 Cassettes / 3.0 C.E. Hours / $49

COURSE DESCRIPTION

Is male power really a myth? If men are truly the powerful sex, whey are men the suicide sex? Why did men live one year less than women in 1920, but live seven years less than women in 1990? Why do men suffer 94% of all on-the-job deaths? Why are men about as likely to die of prostate cancer as women are of breast cancer while breast cancer receives 6605 more funding? In The Myth of Male Power, Dr. Farrell redefines power as having control over our lives. He explains why men do not have the power we think they have—and why that false belief is the single assumption most keeping the sexes from loving each other. He invites men back from the woods and gives us the information to discover why we do not need a women’s movement or a men’s movement, but rather a gender transition movement. Filled with revolutionary perspectives, this audio program will provide the words for every man who wants to express his feelings, and will deepen every woman’s understanding of her dad, her husband, her boyfriend, and her son. From this will emerge dialogue, and from dialogue, a deeper love.

TESTIMONIALS

The number of assumptions about men and women this work challenges, assumptions shared by almost everyone I know, is truly staggering. It is one of the most challenging, stimulating (and mind-blowing) books I have ever read.-Nathaniel Branden, Ph.D.
