Summary: How men can step into their masculinity, and how women can support them. After decades of effort by some to deconstruct gender—essentially deny the inherent differences between males and females in an effort to achieve parity in the work place and elsewhere—we are left with generations of men who have no role models and who struggle to understand themselves as men, and as masculine beings in relationship with women and children. What women need is for men to embrace their masculinity so they can honor the feminine. What men need is ancient. Men need trusting relationships with other men, and the support, experience, guidance, and kick in the pants they can only get from a circle of men. To be the best man one can be, one must be in the company of other men. Today we’ll discuss what men need to successfully step into their masculine so they can be the men their women want, and the fathers their children need. Wayne will also discuss the creation of a new nonprofit organization he has founded to bring men’s groups to men across North America. Wayne M. Levine, M.A. is the director of BetterMen Agoura Hills, CA where he coaches men to be the best men, fathers, husbands and leaders they can be. He also facilitates men’s groups, and created the BetterMen Retreats for men. In addition, Wayne is the author of the best-selling “Hold On to Your N.U.T.s—The Relationship Manual for Men.”
