    Even though men and women are both speaking English, rarely do they fully understand each other. Making assumptions, jumping to conclusions, finger pointing and blaming, excuse making, shutting down and running away all lead to poor communication and hurt feelings. Joining me to find ways to improve communication between the sexes is John Wilder, author of the soon-to-be-released book SECRETS TO ACHIEVING HAPPILY EVER AFTER AND IMPROVING YOUR LOVE LIFE TOO! and Michael of Michael's Quick Help. Michael has been helping people see the nuances of behavior and how that behavior as well as what's said and what's not said (the details) paint a clear picture of what's REALLY transpiring between two people. Join us for what's sure to be an interesting discussion on gender and differences in communication.

    Category: Romance



    Everyone should have basic standards for dating, but some people have a ridiculous laundry list of standards that may be a bit unrealistic. On the flip side we have men and women that have no standards at all and take anything that comes along just to avoid being alone. Is it unrealistic for an educated Black woman to want to have a similarly educated Black man by her side? Why is it that women think book smarts is so important. Is it unrealistic for Black men to want a submissive woman in 2009? Who do these guys think a woman wants to be under their foot and total control? What is on your list of criteria... what standards do you require a potential mate to meet? Money? Sex? Looks? Just how flexible are you with your list of "must haves" when it comes to dating? Read the article: Can Dating Standards Be "Too" High? as well as the article Why Weak Men Want Submissive Women

    Violence Against Women and The Increase in Pack Rapes

    We continue our investigation of the issue of gang rape and rape culture with a panel of top experts on violent crimes against women. We'll examine the mentality of males that would willingly participate in such a vicious crime, as well as reasons why males are recording these events on video, laughing about the rape, and refusing to intervene on behalf of the victim.

    Is this truly what our society has become? Where do we go from here?

    Joining me tonight is:

    • Dr. Joyce Morley-Ball (doctorjoyce.com), an Atlanta psychoterapist and Criminal Justice Specialist certified by the National Assn of Forensic Counselors (NAFC);
    • Ben Atherton-Zeman (spokesperson for the National Organization for Men Against Sexism (nomas.org) and a public speaker on issues of violence prevention;
    • Carole Bartholomeaux (b-pr.com), one of the founders of the Center Against Sexual Assault, the first rape crisis organization in Phoenix;
    • Wendell Watkins Sr. (youvestigate.com), who retired from the Metropolitan Police Department (MPD) in Washington, D.C., as Deputy Chief of Police with more than 30 years of experience. Chief Watkins also served as commander of the Washington D.C. Sex Offense Branch for five years and is the author of "You Vestigate, Don't Speculate;"
    • Melody Brooke, MA, LPC, LMFT, a therapist with extensive experience with trauma survivors (ohwowthischangeseverything.com); and
    • The Rock Star of Seduction, Eric Von Sydow, author of the soon to be released book "Metawhore" (hypnotica.org).

    Street Harassment


    Catcalls, whistles, ogling females with lustful stares, following females down the street four deep in a car, and even copping a feel - men accost women on the streets daily. Why do men insist on treating women and girls as young as 10 years old with such callous disrespect? Some men react angrily with profanity and name calling when their "greetings" are met with a sneer or flatly ignored. Tonight we discuss street harassment, male sense of entitlement to get a complete stranger's time and attention, and the legal and social ramifications of street harassment. Dr. Carla Stokes Founder and CEO of Helping Our Teen Girls in Real Life Situations, Inc. (HOTGIRLS), Dr. Sulaiman Nuriddin of MenStoppingViolence.Org, Detective Kurt Scanio of the Mesa Police Association, and Lauren Taylor of DefendYourself.Org will be on the panel.

    Dating Standards - What Are Yours and Why?


    Everyone should have basic standards for dating, but some people have a ridiculous laundry list of standards that may be a bit unrealistic. On the flip side we have men and women that have no standards at all and take anything that comes along just to avoid being alone. Is it unrealistic for an educated Black woman to want to have a similarly educated Black man by her side? Why is it that women think book smarts is so important. Is it unrealistic for Black men to want a submissive woman in 2009? Who do these guys think a woman wants to be under their foot and total control?

    Male Fears - The Man Hiding Behind The Mask


    Men have a great many fears that they hide under a mask of strength, anger and invincibility. Tonight we'll investigate male fears and the masks men wear to hide their terror - of women, vulnerability, inadequacy, failure, losing love, rejection and a litany of other issues. Dr. Geoffrey Greif, Professor at the University of Maryland School of Social Work and author of "Buddy System: Understanding Male Friendships" guests.

  • Original Air Date:

    Angry Men That Hate Women

    Topic of discussion is the rage that seems prevalent towards women by a great many males in our current society. Read Deborrah's article on the Hofstra University gang rape case. Are videos and the music industry really to blame for this behavior? We'll also discuss the attitude many men have about female sexual assault victims - that somehow its her fault and she did (or did not do) something that would have prevented the attack. Few men seem willing to place responsibility solidly where it belongs, on the attacker! Of particular interest is the public response to the Hofstra University incident which alleged a group rape by five young men on one woman. Guests will be Ken Solin, author of "The Key to The Men's Room: What Men Talk About When Women Aren't Around"; Jeff McKissack, owner of Defense by Design and researcher that has interviewed more than 1200 convicted rapists; Dr. Joyce Morley-Ball, relationship therapist and counselor from Atlanta; and Ben Atherton-Zeman, who has worked as a prevention educator for rape crisis centers, domestic violence programs, and state coalitions.

  • Original Air Date:

    Why Men Won't Commit

    Women play many different types of games to elicit a commitment from a man. Women want to have their relationships defined, boundaries in place, expectations met! This need for security via commitment is difficult for females to let go of and mandatory for many to have peace of mind. But what is it that commitment means to men? Why are many men so hesitant to give their commitment, preferring to play it fast and loose with booty calls and friends with benefits (FWB) type relationships? What is it that men need to see or hear before they willingly and happily commit? Discussion of male commitment fears, what commitment means to men and women, and why men seem to avoid it! Read Never Date a Man That Wants to Go Dutch

  • Original Air Date:

    Teaching Men How to Treat You

    Seems to me a lot of women set themselves up to be mistreated and not loved right because they do too much. We all know how men think, and knowing that, there are certain things you do and don't do if you want to get him, have him protect and adore you, volunteer to do things for you, etc. It starts with the first date and can easily go downhill from there. We'll cover the ego needs men have and what women do or say that pushes men away instead of drawing them closer. Men are actually very easy to understand and deal with when you accept that they are not, and never will be, women. Ms. HeartBeat and a couple of faithful friends will hold court. You're welcome to participate in the chat or on the phone.
