Book-of-the-Month... February 2004

by John Lee

A great Valentines
Day gift

“The best book I’ve read in a long time.” Robert Bly, best-selling author of Iron John

Courting A Woman’s Soul is a story of romance and inner demons, of love and courage. It provides a humble perspective on relationships and why they fail or succeed.

Far from a clinical perspective, this book is a psychological memoir about one man’s journey to find his soul mate.

He not only must find the right woman to spend his life with, but also must develop and maintain a healthy relationship with her. In order to do so, he must find the courage within himself to participate in a love so intimate that he must risk his very soul—and hers as well.

SPECIAL GUEST ARTICLE... Dr. Linda Neilsen
Daughters: Strengthening Your Relationship with Your Father
W
hy is almost all of the advice on father-daughter relationships directed only at fathers? Once daughters have matured beyond childhood, why put so much responsibility or blame on fathers when problems arise or when the father-daughter relationship falls apart? Instead, let’s encourage daughters to be more active in creating the kind of relationship they want with their fathers by offering them a “roadmap through dad territory”. Let’s teach young women the specific skills and the non-sexist attitudes that enable them to strengthen their father-daughter relationships.

JEFF'S LIFE... monthly column by Jeff Stimpson
Play Pillow?
R
ough-housing with your little boys, I've always heard, is one of fatherhood's most robust pleasures, a special one reserved for dad. You don't see too many moms take their toddlers and pretend they're James T. Kirk on a hostile planet. "My little bear- Oh, Alex. No. Sweetie, my neck!" says Jill, as Alex gets her in a good grip for The Bronco Buck. Also, nobody ever mentioned dad's nausea -- the heat makes me woozy, along with Ned and Alex's little feet coming down on my skull until it feels like a canned ham in a pile driver -- but I take the condition as a reminder that I'm pushing 42, and Alex and Ned are not. Ten minutes into it, I'm murmuring to myself like an outfoxed superhero: Losing ... power ... Must ... conserve ... strength ...

GUEST ARTICLE... by Glenn J. Sacks
Why I Launched the Campaign Against 'Boys are Stupid' Products

"Dad, why are they always saying things like that about boys?"

This question asked by my 11 year-old son triggered a campaign which in just six weeks has driven T-shirts, hats, and other merchandise bearing the slogan "Boys are Stupid--Throw Rocks at Them" out of nearly 3,000 retail outlets worldwide. The products depict a little boy running away as several rocks come flying at his head.

THE NEW INTIMACY... monthly column by Judith Sherven, Ph.D. and James Sniechowski, Ph.D.
The Best Gift
People like Deborah, both men and women, "fall in love" over and over and then break up, feeling hopeless about ever having what they say they want. They depend on their fantasies to guide them toward what is supposed to happen in their relationships and they reject the flesh and blood differences, what they call the "imperfections," of the people they meet. Instead, they hold out for a mythical person -- Prince Charming or Lady Perfect -- with whom they're sure they will find continual bliss. However, since real life can't compete with their illusions of perfection, they've unconsciously closed the door on the relationship before it even starts, and are left to wonder -- Is this all there is!?".

MENSIGHT is dedicated to publishing diverse articles for and about men. We believe that there are valuable lessons to be learned from the advocates of all the various men's issues.

MENSIGHT will publish articles, stories and information that will be welcomed by many and controversial to others. We offer the magazine for your edification but you are free to disagree or reject what you do not like. Be advised that we do not necessarily agree with every position that is expressed here.

We hope that you will be entertained, informed, educated, stimulated, and/or motivated by what you read here. We seek to empower men to be the authority of their own lives. We do not seek to tell men what to think or feel.
