Episode #94 – How To Be A Better Man

October 10, 2018 by Dr. NerdLove Leave a Comment

Over the last month, the nation has had one of many conversations about sexual assault and the affect it has on surivors. And as more women speak up, sharing their stories, sharing their pain and their rage, there are guys — guys who don’t want to be part of the problem, who want to be good men — who want to know what they can do to make things better.

And the answer is simple: men need to step up. We need to learn to be the men we were always meant to be and the men the world needs right now. We need to learn how to be better.

Show Highlights:

Why men need to do the work to make the world better
How the system we live in keeps men from seeing the realities women live with
Why it’s important to simply listen to women
What #believewomen actually means
Why we need to get comfortable with being uncomfortable

…and so much more

Episode #70 – Bridging The Love Gap with Jenna Birch

March 22, 2018 by Dr. NerdLove Leave a Comment

Normally when I talk about dating issues, I’m talking about issues that primarily affect men, from a man’s perspective. However, it can also be incredibly useful to look at the dating issues that women face as well. Not only does this help overcome misconceptions that men often have about the dating experience for women, but also illustrates ways that our own misunderstandings about relationships and what women want can get in the way of dating success. So this week, I’m talking with Jenna Birch, author of The Love Gap: A Radical Plan to Win at Life And Love about her book, what women go through in the modern dating world and what straight men might want to know about dating from the other side of the equation.

Show Highlights:

How men and women approach dating differently
Why what we say we want in a partner and what we actually pursue are often so different
Laser thinking vs. Web thinking
How Maslow’s Hierarchy of Needs can affect your love life
Why backburnering may not be a bad thing after all

And so much more…

Episode #68 – What Do Women Want in a Man?

March 1, 2018 by Dr. NerdLove Leave a Comment

Last week, a Twitter user posted a comment about actor Michael B. Jordan – claiming that he was a 5’9” grown man living with his parents who openly loved anime and that this ran contrary to what women found attractive in men.

Regardless of issues like factual errors, this tweet is a great example of myths that many men have about what women find attractive – or unattractive – in men – myths that are frequently wrong.

In fact, the belief in these myths is often a source of anxiety and stress for guys who don’t measure up to the ideas of “what makes a real man” – like we talked about in my previous episode.

This week,we’re going to bust a few dating myths and talk about what women actually find attractive.

Show Highlights:

How myths about female desire teach men the wrong lessons about attraction
What women really think of your job
Why your height doesn’t matter the way you think
The real secret to social and sexual success with women
They body type women really want

…and so much more.

While lots of guys who want to get better with women are looking to find that special someone, there are also a lot of guys out there who are hoping to find more sexual partners and some no-strings attached fooling around.
