It seems whenever you turn on the TV or get on social media, someone is complaining again because they feel disrespected. Often the context is men and women feeling slighted–or even wronged–by the other gender.
So how about it…do we have a respect problem between men and women nowadays? If so, what contributed to that?
Well, my returning guest Mike Domitrz (rhymes with ‘Amish’) is no respecter of persons when it comes to one gender’s claim of disrespect over another. Instead, he respects EVERYONE, and the first order of business in this episode is to explain WHY.
And yes, you can indeed rest assured that this is not going to be another man-bashing parade. In fact, it’s quite the opposite. By the end of this episode you’ll not only emerge empowered to respect women without getting bulldozed, but also BE respected by those very same women.
What’s reasonable for a man to expect in terms of sexual respect from a woman? What is the one tendency in human nature that absolutely has to be curtailed in order for there to be respect? And what positive trait should that negative one be replaced with?
How should we handle an interaction, with a woman on a date or otherwise, if we’re not feeling respected? Has the rise of effective birth control cheapened sex, and therefore fomented an entitlement attitude toward it? What ever happened to the idea of ‘tolerance’?
What are Mike’s thoughts on how alcohol/drugs contribute to lack of sexual respect? Can we as men, like women, revoke consent if we decide ‘maybe not’ in the moment? How?
Should you feel shamed for not wanting to date trans women? How do we respectfully ask someone their pronouns if we’re unsure they’re even non-binary or trans?
