"New column" is a misnomer--actually, the column was written over a year ago but I just discovered that it was published. The column is "Indiana Woman's 'Housework Strike': Maybe It's Husbands Who Should Strike" (Gary Post-Tribune, 11/8/02) and it concerns this story. The column was co-authored by Dianna Thompson of the National Family Justice Association (NFJA).

I will be a guest on the nationally syndicated Power Hour tomorrow morning from 9 AM to 10 AM EST. You can call the show toll free at 1 800 259 9231.

Murray Davis and Dianna Thompson of the NFJA squared off against dad-bashing politician Dave Robertson in the Detroit News yesterday--see their piece "First correct problems in Michigan's system to ensure the state doesn't target innocent parents." Robertson's op-ed is "State needs to improve abysmal collection record: Children suffer when deadbeat parents fail to pay." To listen to Murray and Dianna discuss this issue on His Side, go to Michigan Fathers Under Siege (3/7/04).

Our campaign against the "Boys are Stupid" products was discussed in a recent Knight-Ridder/Tribune news piece--see "Embracing the cynical" (Biloxi Sun Herald, 3/23/04).

Whatever Happened to the
Mythopoetic Men's Movement?



In the early 1990s tens of thousands of men flocked to men's retreats and men's conferences. Robert Bly's Iron John became the first men's movement book to make the New York Times bestsellers list. The Mythopoetic men's movement grew rapidly and drew the attention of major media, including Time, Newsweek, 60 minutes, and 20/20.

But as quickly as the movement rose, it largely disappeared. Whatever happened to the Mythopoetic men's movement?

Dr. Stephen Johnson, founder of the Men's Center Los Angeles , still holds Mythopoetic men's retreats twice a year. He and Timothy "Whispering Eagle" Aguilar, a Shaman who co-facilitates the center's retreats, joined Glenn on His Side with Glenn Sacks on Sunday, March 28. To listen to the archive of last night's show, "Whatever Happened to the Mythopoetic Men's Movement?", click here and scroll down to "Listen to the Show."

Johnson founded the Men's Center Los Angeles in 1989. The center provides services for: anger management; relationship issues; divorce mediation; premarital counseling: career and workplace issues; family/parenting challenges; spiritual transformation; and others.

(Paradigm Magazine, Spring, 2004); and "Natural Allies: In Search of a Mentor" (Man!, Spring, 1992). Also, see Stephen's interview "Healing the Masculine Wound" (Whole Life Times, August, 1992).
