THE FACTS
This book that has helped countless men and the women who want to love them
Joseph Campbell and Robert Bly, mentors of the, pro-feminist, 'Men's Movement', helped John Lee find his true masculinity by honestly confronting his childhood, releasing his rage, learning how to process grief and becoming the man he was always meant to be. Then Bly encouraged John to write the book, "The Flying Boy, healing the wounded man." which has helped millions in their relationships over the years and is the only book to be featured on the Oprah Winfrey Show three times. Today the most commonly posted qualifications women are looking for are, "A man who is in touch with his feelings." One begins to wonder, why do so many self made men, make themselves the way they are? Jeff Eget and Don Stewart Baldwin acquired the rights to this true life story in an effort to help men untwist their tangled feelings to become emotionally free. Toxic masculinity is merely one of the many manifestations that emerge from fear driven false persona's. This film exposes the most common form that is hiding in plain sight.
