The Dating Propaganda - MTP432

Co-Host Raiford Palmer (https://mountaintoppodcast.com/raif) The term 'break-up' itself inherently implies damage, doesn't it? But just because you're splitting up with a woman--or even heading into a painful divorce--it doesn't mean bitterness and hate has to rule the day, or that you have to hand over all of your hard earned assets to the family law profession. My guest Raiford Palmer from STG Divorce Law in Chicago, and author of the bestseller I Just Want This Done is yet another good, solid divorce law veteran who works for his clients from a position of ethics and accountability. So, what are the warning signs that a relationship is beyond repair? And what's the very first thing any man should do when he feels a divorce is imminent? How exactly does our masculine instinct to provide and protect work against us when a relationship is failing? When the divorce actually happens, should you litigate or mediate? What are the very real, and sometimes 'hidden' complications of children being caught up in the divorce? What does Raif tell people when they call him up, tell him their story and ask him whether or not they should divorce their spouse? (His answer will surprise you.) What is the value of getting an actual divorce coach, as opposed to depending on your attorney for anything other than legal support? And what is the single most costly mistake (literally) that men tend to make when sitting across the table from their soon-to-be-ex-spouse? Overall, a great conversation that will serve as a good insurance policy against losing your shirt in family law court, even if you're not currently going through that ordeal.

=== SNIPPETS FROM THE SUMMIT === You can always count on me to bring you the latest warnings on how to spot fake profiles on dating sites, apps and social media. What's more, I stay on top of the latest trends to keep you from getting scammed. Very recently, the scammers have found two brand new ways to work their devious plots...and they're both nothing short of shocking. The first completely flips the script on one of the most common ways to spot online dating shenanigans. But the second one...man, this isn't only perhaps the most brazen stunt ever, it may signal the most cynical 'end game' of hookup culture itself. Seriously, it's so crazy you may think I'm joking...but I most certainly am not.

Co-Host Dana Shergill (https://mountaintoppodcast.com/dana) The word 'aggression' is a loaded one, isn't it? It sounds inherently violent, so when combined with the context of sexuality, we as men tend to avoid even thinking about it like the plague. But what if my returning guest, kinky wellness coach Dana Shergill told you that men tend to have a LOT harder a time with the concept than women do? Well, any man who has ever been curious enough to crack one of those romance novels for women probably has already figured out that women fantasize in genuinely aggressive ways most of us as men would never guess. That's why this episode is not only all-important, but also--perhaps unexpectedly--a whole lot of fun. Dana explains how 'aggression' and 'fun' absolutely do peacefully coexist in the naughty little minds of women. Next, she offers a fascinating perspective on women's relationship with pain...and how different it is from men. If this conversation is sounding dangerous already, that's just the warm-up. Dana continues, explaining how there are plenty of areas in life where aggression is not only okay, but celebrated...and we need to start thinking about sex in that light. After all, she says, women already do...and they can take it. So why exactly is the bedroom the preferred venue for 'playing rough'? And with that in mind...what are the guardrails? And what are some clear-cut examples of the kind of sexual aggression women LOVE in the context of a safe place to play in? And finally, the question you've all been waiting for...why is mixed wrestling porn so hot?

=== SNIPPETS FROM THE SUMMIT ===  It's pure coincidence that I'm releasing this on election day here in the United States. Trust me, this is completely apolitical (perhaps to the disappointment of some of you). Yes, we're talking about women of course. And in this brief episode I'm blowing the lid off the myths the PUA movement perpetrated about hot babes at clubs, their little black dresses, their snobby attitudes and especially their 'rejection mechanism'. How can you grab a pair and approach, talk to and make plans with women more easily than you ever have in the past? Well...start with THIS ridiculously amazing secret, which actually is NO secret to single dads out there (right fellas?).

Co-Host Jim Wolfe (https://mountaintoppodcast.com/wolfe) The term 'propaganda' in and of itself is both sensational and polarizing. Most of us have a definition of it in our heads, but is it truly accurate? And is the political realm really the only place we are subject to it? My returning guest Jim Wolfe and I are both firmly of the opinion that not only dating but also male/female relationships in particular are being propagandized increasingly often in today's world. So first off, what really IS the proper definition of 'propaganda'? What brand of it is going on here in the 'free world'? And most pertinent of all to this particular conversation, how HAS dating and relating to women become propagandized in recent years? Listen in as Jim introduces three types of filters we can use to identify and sort out 'dating propaganda'. Is there relation-prop in our movies, and even our music? Why is misinformation so effective at keeping men and women apart, when our own primal instincts are still very much intact? After all, the areas where we as men in particular are being propagandized are pretty obvious, aren't they? So what, then, are we as men to do? Should we react to being propagandized in a certain way? Should we double-down rather than get defensive about how we as men are being vilified in the post-modern world? Or is there a better way to respond, that involves more real, actual male leadership? What is the ultimate, virtually foolproof 'propaganda buster'...especially as it pertains to women and dating?

=== SNIPPETS FROM THE SUMMIT === As we all noticed, and I've talked about on this show, it's as if everyone let their social muscles atrophy during COVID. But now it's been way too long since the lockdowns ended for anyone who wants to be social to not be out there getting after it. But nevertheless, lots of us as men are still, well...alone. And despite what we may be telling ourselves, we're flat-out starving. And worse...it's almost as if we've intentionally decided to starve ourselves. Why is that going on? How did we get here? And most of all, what are we going to do about it? After all, whether we realize it or not, plenty of good, decent women are out there starving as well...and they're waiting for us to LEAD.

Co-Host Emily McKay (https://mountaintoppodcast.com/coaching) Okay, I'm going to admit right up front that Emily and I obviously believe relationships are worth getting into, since we've shared a great one together for almost 19 years. But we also completely get that YOU might not be like US. In this episode we acknowledge all the legit reasons why perfectly good, decent and sane people might just swear off getting into any kind of relationship at all with MOTOS, let alone long-term ones. For starters, we talk about how this isn't our grandparents' world anymore and how that affects people's perspectives on relationships. How can either a man OR a woman have a valid point in this context? Even though it may seem sad to think that people are out there completely giving up on finding the relationship they actually want, what if there are folks who really do NOT want that in their lives...and they're simply saying 'no' to societal pressure to conform? Does that societal pressure even exist anymore, by the way? Even if you ARE relationship minded, is it okay to think these thoughts? And well, what are the good reasons to get into a relationship? And why stay in one if it's going poorly? On a related note, is arguing and bickering a sign the relationship's in trouble...or could it be the exact opposite? Well, the easy answer (demanding more elaboration, which we offer) is 'it depends'. Stay tuned as we make the case for getting everything off your chest as perhaps the healthiest sign of all that the relationship is a healthy one. It's just a shame that too many couples never even realize that level of intimacy is open to them.

==== SNIPPETS FROM THE SUMMIT === Way too many of us as men put way too much pressure on ourselves to be absolutely perfect with women. The irrational fear is that if we mess up even ONCE, women will dump us for some other, apparently more 'perfect' guy. Well, here's the thing. No matter how good you are--even at a world-class level--you're never, ever going to get EVERYTHING right. And yes, women are generally more forgiving than you think...after all, they screw up too. Here's the secret of how men who are at the top of their game recover from even unforced errors, bounce right back and WIN.

Co-Host Lisa Concepcion (https://mountaintoppodcast.com/lovequest) My first-time guest today is my new friend Lisa Concepcion of Love Quest Coaching in Sarasota, FL. First of all, yes...she made it through Milton unscathed, which I was glad to hear. But just hours before the hurricane hit, she joined us for a head-on conversation about what's up with women socially nowadays, and WHERE ARE THEY? After all, you guys hammer me constantly for new and effective ways to find women AND meet them, and Lisa is the perfect one to have that all-important conversation with. Right up front, Lisa let's us know she's crystal-clear on how difficult it is for us as men out there, no thanks to what she calls a 'cocktail' of issues and concerns that complicate finding, meeting and being social with MOTOs. Lisa's first suggestion on where to find high-quality women is so obvious, yet so often overlooked, that it'll hit you like a ton of bricks. Next, Lisa shares with us what she tells women she coaches about how and where to find men. This is a massive insight because, after all, all of this works best when men and women end up at the same places at the same times, right? What does it mean to be 'heterophobic'? How did we get the crazy idea that bars and clubs are where to meet women? And what is the exact OPPOSITE place from bars or clubs to meet women...and absolutely amazing? Where do women who see themselves as 'wife-material' go? Can a woman who dresses like a slut on weekends really be a 'good girl' under there? And hey, wait a minute...if decent men and women are designed to be together and it isn't so complicated, why then is it so difficult for us to find each other?

=== SNIPPETS FROM THE SUMMIT ===  I've talked to many of you who feel as if you have plenty going for you, and by all rights should be meeting and attracting women like crazy. Yet somehow, you're not. In some cases, I've heard stories about how you've read all the books, watched all the videos and maybe even have hired multiple coaches...but the same old, shop-worn dating advice just isn't getting you anywhere. Well, the solution to this frustrating, enigmatic problem might really be a lot more simple than it seems. Simple...but not necessarily easy. It all starts with the basic mindset shift I reveal in this brief podcast, and once that happens your thoughts, words and even your behavior follow...automatically (and almost immediately) making you more irresistibly attractive to woman than ever before.
