People today are generally very confused about what it means to be a man, and what it means to be a woman. The concepts and the implications of the terms male and female, masculine and feminine are also misunderstood.

Men and women are equal, but opposite polarities, and as such have different functions and purposes. Humanity has lost this knowledge, and consequently the true roles of the male and female are no longer understood. As a result, men have become weak and disempowered, and women, having had to fight for acknowledgement within society, have lost touch with their femininity through the pursuit of male-like qualities.

Nowadays we are constantly being shown that women can do most of the things that men once considered their prerogative, and vice-versa. However, simply to change roles is not the solution. Unless we understand what it means to be male and what it means to be female, we will still be left with each sex feeling isolated and marginalised, as each struggles to find its identity through the opposite sex.

"Because the true role of the male is no longer understood,
men have become weak and disempowered."
In these courses we dispel the myths born of social conditioning, and we put men back in touch with true masculinity.

Through learning to understand the true nature and function of men and women, we gain a greater acceptance of each other, and we can work constructively towards promoting intelligent co-operation between the sexes, rather than fighting.

Naturally, we all have our own male and female sides, so by understanding the true nature of these we not only relate better to the men and women around us, but also learn to work in harmony with ourselves.

Key Concepts in this course:
  • Separating Reality from Myth
  • The Boy in a Mother's World
  • The Man in a Male World
  • The Power of the Male
In this course we look at commonly-held beliefs about men and women and give new definitions. We look at role models and the effects on both sexes of weak fathers and over-dominant mothers. By constantly challenging the accepted roles, we lead you to a new understanding of men and women and how they can work together.
