The Masculine in Relationship: A Blueprint for Inspiring the Trust, Lust, and Devotion of a Strong Woman (Unabridged‪)‬

This book is for men in relationships who want to embody more masculine energy.

Men want to live with more power, groundedness, and clarity. Men who want to inspire more trust, lust, and devotion from their partner. But this is confusing territory. The modern world tells you that masculine energy is toxic. And that we’re all the same. That you need to be a "nice guy" who plays it safe. For most men, it is not at all clear how to live more from their masculine core.

But this book will show you how. It presents a three-part masculine blueprint—Respond vs. React, Provide Structure, and Create Safety—that is a model of masculine groundedness that you can manifest in your relationship with a strong and capable woman.

Such a woman doesn’t settle for mediocre. She needs you to follow through on your word, have purpose in life, remain grounded in the face of her intense emotion, make her feel safe, and provide leadership in the relationship.

When that doesn’t happen, she may start to drift. Things between you will start to feel flat, contentious, or even toxic. To you, she will seem to nag and criticize more, and have less interest in sex. When she gets really angry, you’ll label it as “crazy” and blame her. But, in truth, she’s just expressing the pain of you not stepping up. It is a relationship arc that is all too common. Fighting or defending yourself doesn’t resolve anything. Withdrawing into work or your phone just makes it worse. And contorting yourself to avoid conflict just kills her respect for you.The answer is to develop and live from your masculine core. This book shows you how.

It is not the old model based on control, but a modern model based on clarity and leadership. This is not a manual for "Alpha Dogs" nr a fuzzy spiritual guide. Rather, it is a clear set of principles that help you develop your masculine leadership. And if you want go deeper into these concepts, see GS's "The Art of Relational Masculinity" video course.
