Summary

In this episode, we welcome Warren Farrell to the show. He is an author, political scientist, and activist who has written many books to include The Myth of Male Power, Why Men Earn More, and The Boy Crisis: Why Our Boys Are Struggling and What We Can Do About It, which is the main focus of today’s discussion. He has also been described as the “father of the men’s movement.” In this interview, we discuss how he got that nickname, why he broke off from the feminist movement of the 1970s, what the crisis with boys is and where it comes from, why it’s so harmful for boys to be “dad-deprived”, the importance of fathers roughhousing with their children, how our soft modern society has made it harder for boys to develop well, how to rightly think about rites of passage, and much more. Let’s get into it… Text UPPER ROOM to 727-472-3860 to get an application and to schedule 1-on-1 with Rylee Meek of The Upper Room and The King’s Council.
