 What
Is He Thinking? A New Theory of Male Sexuality
with Michael Bader, DMH
Saturday, October 14, 2006, 9:00 AM - 4:00 PM
Limited to 100 participants
Male Sexuality is controversial and often misunderstood. Sexual
preferences and fantasies in general arise as a solution to unconscious
pathogenic beliefs that otherwise inhibit sexual desire. Men suffer
from very particular forms of guilt and therefore generate particular
types of solutions, including objectification, the splitting of
sex and intimacy, and pedophilic interests. Political debates
about the dangers of male sexuality tend to collapse the meaning
of it into stark and moral black/white dichotomies which inhibit
understanding. The purpose of this workshop is to correct this
problem. The goal of this conference is to help participants better
understand the psychodynamics of male sexuality in order to deepen
their ability to help men suffering from conflicts in this arena
and to help women better understand the sexual psychology of the
other sex.
Michael Bader, DMH, is a psychologist and psychoanalyst
with over 25 yars of clinical experience. He has been on the progressive
edge of his own field, publishing a series of important articles
that attempt to humanize psychotherapy and make it more practically
effective without sacrificing depth. In addition, Dr. Bader has
published a series of groundbreaking essays in Tikkun Magazine
which analyze the intersection of psychology and politics. Finally,
Dr. Bader is one of the founders of the Institute for Change,
a leadership development organization aimed at progressive institutions.
