A Voice for Men

Do you remember the first time you saw behind your wife's, girlfriend's or ex's mask and saw her true abusive nature? Do you remember the first time you wondered, "Who is this person?" Do you remember the first time you realized, "Something is very wrong in this relationship and it's not me?" If so, please tune into Shrink4Men Radio this evening when Dr. Tara Palmatier will discuss relationship stages, abuse (particularly men who are abused by women) and the WTF moment. The WTF moment is when you see behind your abusive partner's mask for the first time and finally realize there's a problem in your relationship and it's not you. The telphone lines will be open, so if you have a question or story to share that pertains to this episode's topic, please call in (310 388 9709) or Skype.

Does your wife, girlfriend or ex regularly blow up your phone with needy, hostile, delusional and menacing texts, emails and voicemails? Does your ex or a woman in whom you have no romantic interest "accidentally" turn up whenever you go out? Are you being stalked by your ex, your girlfriend, wife or a woman you never dated, but who has developed an obsession for you nevertheless? Do you know that men are just as likely to be the victims of stalking as women? If you're a woman, is your partner's ex stalking you? Do you know that many of your girlfriend’s, wife’s or ex’s nuisance, clingy, possessive, angry, threatening, Internet searches, social network, text/telephone/email and/or destructive behaviors qualify as stalking and harassment?  Do you know that many women often use Family Court and negative advocate attorneys to stalk and harass their ex-husbands and/or fathers of their children?  Do you know that stalking and harassment are abuse?  Do you know that stalking and harassment are a form of domestic violence?  Do you know that stalking and harassment (and cyberstalking and cyber-harassment) are crimes? This Monday, November 7, 2011 at 9pm EST  Dr. Tara J. Palmatier of Shrink4Men will discuss women who stalk, the seriousness of this issue and what to do if you're currently being stalked. If you've been the target of a female stalker and have questions or a story you'd like to share about being stalked, or if you're a member of law enforcement with advice to share, please tune in and Skype or call in +1 310 388 9709.

  So why, you may ask, would I be making the show announcement for next Tuesday’s episode of AVfM Radio on Friday afternoon, instead of on show day, as is customary? Because we are seizing the opportunity to promote and further a much needed discussion about AVfM, the MRM and how all this fits into the arenas of Game and PUA, and also the ways it doesn’t. For the uninitiated, this is an extension of a debate challenge that was issued by Frost in reaction to a piece I did on Game and PUA. That debate will start running this Monday night with my first response to Frost, who now has a contributor level account at this website. The debate will conclude on Saturday. We are going to run the show up to a full three hours, depending on the number of phone calls that come in. MRA’s, MGTOW, PUA’s and Game advocates are all welcome to call in and have your unbridled voices heard.  Only one rule: This isn’t Fox News so no shouting matches. I give my word that you will be allowed to have your say and the only constraints put on you will be to accommodate other callers that wish to speak. Also, it will help both our causes if everyone keeps it reasonably civil. This should be a very interesting show. With the exception of a couple of borderline personalities, who don’t know any better, feminists and white knights lack the guts to call in and put their ideas on the line publicly.  I don’t think this is true of PUA’s and Gamers, and expect they will support their side of this well. So mark your calendars for Tuesday, November 1, 2011 at 8:00 PM Central Time for what out to be a few hours of really thought provoking material.

Does your wife, girlfriend, ex or partner's ex have a Dr. Jekyll and Ms. Hyde personality? Does she have a "good mask" that she shows the outside world while subjecting you and/or the kids to her cruel and abusive side? Does she have little to no empathy or selective empathy? Does she throw a temper tantrum, rage, pout or allege "Abuse!" when you try to hold her accountable for her bad behaviors? Does she value you (and others) based on what you can do for her or what she can get from you? In other words, does she see people as objects of utility? Does she lie, cheat, use violence and other forms of intimidation and manipulate to get her way or to "win?" Does she have scorn and contempt for the people she victimizes or "pulls one over on?" Has she ever threatened to destroy you and/or tried to make good on her threats? Does she only recognize her rights and believe she's entitled to violate the rights of others? Does she have a gross sense of entitlement? Does she blame others for her own failures, bad decisions and bad behaviors? If so, your wife, girlfriend, ex or partner's ex may have sociopathic traits or be a full-blown sociopath. Historically, men have been diagnosed with Antisocial Personality Disorder far more than women. Female sociopaths exist, it's just that we use different terminology to identify them. It's time to rethink the qualifiers of female sociopathic behavior, which Dr Tara J. Palmatierof Shrink4Men will be discussing during this Shrink4Men Radio episode. The telephone lines will be open, so if you have questions, stories or thoughts on this topic, please call in (310 388 9709) or Skype in. And Happy Halloween!

Join hosts Paul Elam and JtO for this show examining the modern political White Knight. Historically this has come in the form of men like Vice President Joseph Biden, who authored VAWA, the Violence Against Women Act, a massive piece of legislation that has resulted in egregious amounts of government waste, deception of the public and a significant negative impact on civil rights and due process. But there are surprises coming down the tubes from other governement officials right now. The proposed plans you will learn about on tonights show will shock you more than you can possibly imagine.  And you know we don't say these things lightly. You will definitely want to tune in to this one. But be sure to take your blood pressure medicine and be prepared to breath deep and count to 10 a few times over.   If you think that misandry in American politics is already bad, you have not heard anything yet. On a slightly more cheerful note, Paul talks about his trip to the barber shop and take some shots at DV shelters, aka government sponsored bordellos. JtO delivers his usual slash and burn rant.   The call in number is 320-388-0709 and registered users can skype into the show. 

Do you fancy yourself a knight in shining armor? Are you a sucker for damsels in distress? Do you like coming to your partner's "rescue?" Do women with a sob story make you feel protective? Do you have a pattern of getting involved with waifs and distressed damsels du jour and set out to prove that "you're not like all the other guys?" Do you believe that your crisis-ridden partner "can't live without you?" Do you need to feel like a "hero?" Are you a woman who has a pattern of getting involved with men who have crazy, unstable and abusive exes? Do you try to show these men "you're not like all the other women who hurt him?" Are you a rescuer of rescuers? If so, tune into Shrink4Men Radio on Monday, October 24, 2011 at 9pm EST when Dr Tara Palmatier of Shrink4Men will be discussing the unhealthy relationship patterns in which many white knights, heroes, knights in shining armor, rescuers, fixers, professional caretakers and rescuers of rescuers find themselves stuck. We'll also touch upon the concepts of hostile dependency, codependency, and parentified children. If you have questions or a story to share, please tune in and call or Skype in +1 310 388 9709.

  Tonight, on AVfM Radio we are back after a week off with a long awaited show on Rape Hysteria.  JtO will join me, with Dr. T on the phones for an examination of false rape culture and the victim histrionics that surround the crime of rape as opposed to other violent crimes in this culture. As part of the show tonight I am going to do a revised monologue based on my rape essay, “The Scourge of Rape, Yeah, Whatever.”  That is one particular barn burner that I wanted available for download at BTR. It’s one that belongs in the archives there. I am also going to be doing a short question and answer with JtO himself, who is appearing tonight, by the way, on prime time network television on a show called, “The Arena,” with Michael Coren. JtO is representing, you guessed it, A Voice for Men! So you want to be sure to tune in tonight for details about that, as well as the other goodies we have in our basket.  Oh, and just so everyone is prepared. This is going to be a show that really pushes the envelope, so to speak. So you might want to have your laptops fired up and ready to defend us. We are pulling out all the stops. And brothers, that isn’t hype. We are getting THAT close to the truth. See you tonight! 

Have you ever been told, "You're so angry!" and then felt wrong or ashamed? Does it seem like it's peachy keen for your wife, girlfriend, ex --- or any woman for that matter --- to lash out at you in anger or rage, but if you become angry in return, you're labeled the "scary-angry guy" while she's only "expressing her feeelings?" Have you had to disavow your feelings, especially angry feelings, in your relationship to the point where you feel shut down and maybe a little (or a lot) depressed? Do you feel mute rage, meaning that when you're angry, you can't articulate it? Are you afraid that if you let go and express your anger that you'll lose control of yourself? Are you sick and tired of hearing that, "men aren't good at expressing emotions" or, even more ludicrous, that "men don't have emotions?" Worse yet, do you believe it? If you're a woman married to a man with a crazy, abusive ex, do you ever find yourself wondering why your husband seems numbed out and unphased while you are legitimately angry at his ex's latest whack-o stunt? Do you feel your anger for your partner? If so, please join Dr Tara J. Palmatier of Shrink4Men and her guest, Paul Elam of AVoiceforMen on Monday, October 10, 2011 at 9pm EST when they'll be discussing the topic of male anger and how men can learn to make friends with their anger and channel it in healthy and productive ways. Anger isn't scary; it becomes scary when to ignore, deny it and don't do anything with it. Telephone lines will be open, so if you have a question or would like to add to the conversation, please call (+310 388 9709) or Skype in. Dr T and Paul would love to hear from you!

  Tonight, on AVfM Radio, get aboard the train to hypergamy! We are going to take an in depth look at how this social custom, rooted in our human sociobiology, and examine why it used to work, and why it is now a source of the destruction of men. Of course all of this will be delivered with the expected red pill perspective, which of course makes us right about everything.   Also tonight, news on the FBI plans to expand the definition of rape, female firefighting applicants in Chicago that can’t pass a physical exam but want the job anyway, bad enough to sue for it, Amanda Knox and her international p*ssy pass, along with other very topical stories.   We will also be featuring an interview with Tom Manlack of the Good Mangina Project Magazine, with perhaps a surprise for Tom as well.   It all adds up to one great show, folks, so be sure to tune in live and catch it as it happens.  You can listen in here, and join us in the chat room for some behind the scenes banter.   And don’t forget, the call in number is 310-388-9709. You can also skype in if you are a registered follower of the show. And speaking of that, if you listen, but are not registered, it brings shame to men across the entire world from which they may never recover.   Cheers, folks, looking forward to getting your great calls.

Are you a crazy chick magnet? Does it seem like every woman you fall for eventually turns out to be unstable, destructive, toxic, controlling and abusive? Can’t figure out what you’re doing? Are you a rescuer of damsels in distress and birds with broken wings? If you're a woman, does it seem like every man to whom you're attracted has a crazy ex he's trying to get over? Does your partner have a crazy ex with whom he still struggles setting and enforcing boundaries? Are you a rescuer who rescues rescuers? Are you wondering if you, in fact, may be the crazy one? Are you sick and tired of being sick and tired of your crazy-making relationship pattern? Tune in to Shrink4Men Radio on the AVfM channel on Monday, October 3, 2011 at 9pm EST when your host, Dr Tara J. Palmatier of Shrink4Men.com, and her guest, Shari Schreiber, M.A. of GettinBetter.com, will discuss the attraction crazy, abusive and self-destructive women hold for some men. If you have questions or would like to share your experiences with Dr T and Shari, telephone lines will be open (+1 310 388 9709.)

  Wow. No, I mean WOW.  That is what you are going to be saying, over and over again tonight when you tune in to A Voice for Men Radio and listen to our show on Men Going Their Own Way. I am going to go out on a limb here and say that this is going to be the best show we have done so far, and at the least the most explosive.  It is a good enough topic, but what started out as a more or less generic (for MRA’s) examination of MGTOW and the zeta male concept, turned up some real surprises as we got into the research. I am not going to get into specifics here, but I will tell you with absolute candor that both JTO and I were stunned, flabbergasted, at what we discovered and have been giddy with imagining and discussing its implications for the future of the MRM. And I mean that in the best possible way. Tune in tonight at 8:00 p.m. CST, to A Voice for Men Radio.  Dr. T will be on the phones screening calls, and we have a pretty good idea that within the first 15 minutes of the show, a bunch of you are going to have something to say.

  Considering saying, “I do?” Before you get ready to walk down the aisle, maybe you should take a minute to consider saying, “I don’t.” Connubial bliss can be . . . blissful. But it can also be a surefire way for a man to lose everything he holds dear --- his children, his home, his assets, his friends, his family, his career, his retirement and his sanity.   Tune in to Shrink4Men Radion on the AVoiceforMen BlogTalkRadio channel on Monday, September 26, 2011 at 9pm EST when Dr Tara J. Palmatier of Shrink4Men.com will discuss what every man should know before he gets married, including divorce and custody statistics and a growing movement called Men Going Their Own Way (MGTOW). If you have questions or would like to share what you wish you’d known before heading down the aisle with Dr T, telephone lines will be open (+1 310 388 9709.)

  Tonight AVfM Radio will present a very special program. JtO and I will follow up last week’s show, “What Makes a Man a Man,” with a query into the female psyche, in an episode titled “What Women Want.” Suffice it to say it will not be your typical, manginosity filled diatribe on pleasing the “fair” sex, but a serious examination of the question that you can only get MRA style.  If you liked the last show, you are going to love this one. But we are not stopping there.  Also joining us on the show will be Tom Martin, the former London School of Economics student who is now litigating against that university, claiming that the institution practices sexual discrimination in its gender studies program. (Tip of the hat to Jeremiah) Martin’s suit was “covered,” by The Guardian with an ambush article, full of hollow critique, feminist dogma and condescension, by Jonathan Dean of The Guardian. Martin was, however, allowed to present a response to that article himself, in which I might add he used a THM video as a source for citing the gender bias in the approach to domestic violence (Thanks to his use of the video, it has just topped 100,000 views). Mr. Martin will be interviewed on the show and will be available to field your questions when you call in to the show at 310-388-9709. Be sure to join is for what will clearly be one of our most interesting shows.

Are you trapped in a sexless marriage? Does your wife or partner withhold sex and affection from you on a regular basis? Does your wife or partner use sex and affection as currency in a transactional relationship? Are you feeling frustrated by the lack of physical and emotional intimacy in your sexless marriage or relationship? If so, then be sure to tune in to Shrink4Men Radio on the BlogTalkRadio AVoiceforMen channel on Monday, September 19, 2011 at 9pm EST when we’ll tackling the topic of sexless marriages in the context of relationships with abusive women. If you have questions or just want to share your experiences about being in a sexless marriage or relationship, telephone lines will be open (+1 310 388 9709.)  

  Tonight on AVfM Radio we take you on a whirlwind tour of manhood.  Your hosts, JtO and Paul, two absolutely perfect specimens of testosterone poisoned masculinity, are going to give you the 101 on being a real man. So if the messages you get from women and from other men about what a man is really supposed to be have left you confused and less than satisfied, then by all means tune in to this show.  You will never need to hear another word on manhood again.
