The Myth of Male Power, Part 2, with Dr. Warren FarrellOn todayâs show we continue a three part interview with Dr. Warren Farrell, menâs movement leader.  Weâll focus on fathers rights, the boy crisis, violence against men and women and discrimination in the legal system.  First question on the agenda:  do children really need their fatherDr. Warren Farrell is roundly regarded as a leading figure in the menâs movement, or better, the gender transition movement.  His unique background and expertise give him a perfect vantage point from which to address menâs issues.  Dr. Farrell has taught gender issues and psychology at several institutes, including Brooklyn College, Georgetown University, American University and the School of Medicine at the University of California at San Diego.As a young graduate, Dr. Farrell was a major player in the feminist movement, especially in creating menâs groups across the US, then becoming the only man to be elected three times to the Board of Director of the National Organization for Women in New York City.  Farrell was featured in media including the New York Times, the Today Show and the Phil Donahue Show, leading to his authorship of the pro-feminist book "The Liberated Man".As we discuss, in the late 80s, Farrell became increasingly convinced that feminism was rather one sided and that menâs issues were being neglected, leading to deep research on a variety of topics long taken for granted, and the publication of his landmark "The Myth of Male Power", which touched on a diverse cross section of issues.Farrell would go on to research each area in great depth, leading to the publication of 5 more books, including "Women Canât Hear What Men Donât Say", a couples communication book to address the rise in divorces, "Father and Child Reunion", to address the issue of fatherless homes and present the optimal shared parenting solution, "Why Men Earn More" to address the pay gap, and "Does Feminism Discriminate Against Men" which, among other things, called for menâs studies in academia.You can get the latest show by:* Subscribing here for free with itunes* Using this feedburner link in your browser.Download mp3 fileIf you like the show, please leave us a review on itunes.Links of InterestLearn about Dr. Warren Farrell and order his books
