"Ultimately, the forces outside of us
have little significance other than being a
distraction. If men look to an illusionary
outside world
for answers, we will continue to
get illusionary answers. There are challenges
we need to face, alone in the dark, to learn
to channel our strengths." ~ Mike
Dugan
Mike Dugan
reveals all the challenges he faced in the
past and how he thought his way into an
intimate and fulfilling relationship
by taking
an honest look at male sexuality. He takes on
the lone wolf, the dragon and the problems of
antisocial behavior.
"Men Fake
Foreplay" is an honest look at male
sexuality. This book will not only lead men to
deeply fulfilling and profound
spiritual
moments, women will find the insights and
understanding to be intellectually satisfying
and emotionally fulfilling. It is rare
for a
wildly funny book to also steal my heart.
Mike Dugan
succeeds where many fear to even begin. There
is insight into why women don't want you to
change who you are,
but instead want you to
become more aware of who you are. He asks:
"Where are the gentlemen?"
Though a variety of
intellectually intriguing examples, Mike Dugan
shows the need for male role models in our
society. I loved
the story of the elephants
and his comments about defeating inner
dragons. This book is not just an analysis of
the male/female
connection; it is more an
analysis of how men connect with their deepest
self. Mike Dugan reveals how a boy becomes a
man and
explores the choices a man makes once
he takes on the responsibility of caring for
the women in his life.
There is a
deep, penetrating intimacy throughout this
work. While this book is also wildly funny, I
laughed my way right into an understanding of
some profound male wisdom. One of the best
lines in this book: "A man's power should
be wielded compassionately."
Like a true
comedian, he entertains you with a few jokes
and then once he has your attention and
respect, there is a place to discuss
communication, feelings and sexual ethics.
It took me a
few minutes to get through the last two pages.
I couldn't see the words. This is what I
wanted from all the men in my life.
I want to
feel safe and nurtured. I want there to be
safe places in my life where I'm loved as a
soul.
