Understanding the Middle Aged Male in America

Most women do not understand men and their midlife crisis much, of course, if you watch their behavior sometimes it seems like perhaps they do not understand themselves much either. Indeed, this is because many things happen to men as they cross over the hump in life. Their bodies change, their desire changes and they are basically all messed up. A very good book on this subject to read is:


“The Male Climacteric” by Helmut J. Ruebsaat, MD. And Raymond Hull – 1975.


It sub-title is: “A guide for all concerned men and women to understanding and coping with the often unpleasant social, physical and psychological effects of the male change of life”


The book dives into the male Midlife Crisis issues and all the rotten things that go along with that. Things that society never much liked to talk about such as Impotency, well now there is a solution for that – Viagra. But this is just one issue, they also have Temporary Loss of Memory, which can be aggravating to them.


Many wives of middle-aged men get upset because they want to go around chasing Younger Women, perhaps to prove themselves as they begin Losing Physical Strength and this really is a tough challenge for a man who prides himself on athletic ability. Another thing that goes is their Visual Equity, which is very noticeable and psychologically upsetting to them.


The reason I recommend this book for both men and women is because it explains the cold hard facts that middle aged men must deal with, whether they choose to acknowledge the reality or not. Growing older is no fun, it is akin to Nature’s Dirty Trick on us, nevertheless, it is real and must be dealt with. Think on this.
