Terrence Real: The Trouble With Men (1997)

Famed therapist and author Terrence Real discusses the modern struggle to grapple with masculinity, spoken just before the release of his bestseller "I Don't Want To Talk About It: Overcoming the Secret Legacy of Male Depression."
This is an exclusive recording of the 1997 Minnesota Men’s Conference. Register and attend the next Conference by visiting www.minnesotamensconference.com
Founded by Robert Bly in 1984, the Minnesota Men’s Conference celebrates the telling of old stories, the gifts of poetry and music, and opening our hearts to grief, wildness, and joy. We all have a yearning for lives of richness and meaning; this five-day conference is a unique opportunity to enrich ourselves in a community of other men.

What a beautiful talk. I think this is why suicide is such an issue in our society - disconnection. It's much deeper than looking at a person's circumstances and fixing those. It really is a deep spiritual wound that most of use carry and are unaware of

I love that DH Lawrence poem.
I, first, read it in "Iron John."
Thanks, Fella's.
I'd like to grow, and live an authentic life.

I apologize for you having a mother like that. She should have been with you, protecting you and she should have that man. I am so sorry that happened to you.

Aho.

Do you know where the men's movement is right now?
You just go around saying you're part of a men's movement and gage their reactions.
We must have failed our fellow men cause the men's movement is a joke

[@tinokaps]

Pretty much

30:22 in 1997 this seemed funny. I'm concerned about the transgender in doctrination today.
