I recall one of my early national men’s conferences where most of the workshops on the college campus were getting maybe 10 – 20 participants (which were all men in those days). The workshop I went to attend didn’t have any other attendants so I decided to check out an interesting video project instead.

OLD DOGS – NEW TRICKS
December 4, 2007 9:12 AM ET
Working with men and men’s issues over the last 25+ years has been an exciting adventure. As a private therapist in suburban Detroit, seeing men discover their often long hidden (or presumed long lost) passions has been very rewarding and satisfying work!

THE DEMISE OF THE MASCULINE AMERICAN CULTURE
August 27, 2007 7:50 AM ET
A ‘Baby Boom’ male presents his experience on how he views the traditional male model as becoming obsolete. Through personal reflections, the presenter will summarize how it is necessary for today’s male to actively seek new alternatives to the ‘John Wayne Syndrome’ if he is to survive personally, socially and physically. This is the result of current societal pressures, world economics, and the women’s movement.
