| Andrew Irwin-Smiler, Ph.D. |
Young Men's Sexual Lives When we think about the sex lives of teenage boys and young men, we expect them to be promiscuous and to be willing to do just about anything to have sex. Yet research into the sexual behavior and desires of teenage boys and young men shows us that few teenage boys and young men fit this pattern. Contrary to the stereotype, most boys are monogamous and want to establish an emotional connection to their partners. Andrew Smiler PhD., joins us to discuss his research. Dr. Smiler is a visiting assistant professor of psychology at Wake Forest University; prior to that, an assistant professor of psychology at the State University of New York (SUNY) at Oswego. |

| Jack Kammer, MSW, MBA |
Heroes of the Blue Sky Rebellion Do you have a son, a brother, a nephew you love? Maybe a young male friend or student you care about? Does he feel he has to act a certain way simply because he's male - a way that might not be best for him? The central idea of this book is that boys and young men are being harmed by cultural assumptions about masculinity that devalue and disregard both a boy’s inner and outer world. We adults need to address sexism against young men. The book is a quick and easy boy-friendly read. Jack Kammer, MSW, MBA is the director of the Center for Men and Boys in Social Policy, a public interest consultancy in Baltimore, Maryland USA. |

The book addresses several forms of violence, including rape, intimate partner violence, stalking, and sexual harassment.

| Ronald Levant, Ed.D., MBA, ABPP |
Men's Reluctance to Seek Help Ronald F. Levant, EdD, ABPP, MBA, is the former President of the American Psychological Association and current Editor of the journal, “Psychology of Men and Masculinity.” Dr Levant joins us to discuss his unique insights on men’s reluctance to seek help. Dr. Levant is the author of numerous books including “A New Psychology of Men,” a book that has reshaped the field. Questioning the traditional norms of the male role (such as the emphasis on aggression, competition, status, and emotional stoicism), “A New Psychology of Men,” shows how some male problems (such as violence, homophobia, devaluation of women, detached fathering, and neglect of health needs) are unfortunate by-products of the current process by which males are socialized. |

| Ryon McDermott, M.A. |
Exploring Your Sense of Being a Man Ryon McDermott, a doctoral student at the University of Houston, will discuss research about how men develop their sense of masculinity by exploring and committing to various gender roles. Central to this process is the role of gender role dogmatism. It is important to explore instead of foreclosing too quickly on gender roles related to being a man in order to prompt well-being and an authentic self. |

| Jim O'Neil, Ph.D. |
Men and Loss Loss is a universal human experience. With that said, many men have difficulty working through and accepting the various forms of losses that occur over the course of a life time. This difficulty can be traced in part to how men are taught to approach grief related issues by using restrictive emotionality and control issues, both of which can inhibit working through process. We will explore how men can take painful loss experiences and transform them into meaningful life events. Our guest is Dr. Jim O’Neil, a pioneer in the area of the psychology of men. |
