John Gray: Beyond Mars and Venus | 084

Who knew he was a pro at orgasm control? (Repost)

I had a weird relationship during COVID.

Lockdown made a lot of us weird.

For me, old “white knight” behaviors came up that I thought I long eradicated.

(To be fair, there was a minute it seemed the world was ending—what better time to play the savior?)

In my confusion, a friend lent me a copy of Men Are From Mars, Women Are From Venus.

Really? I thought.

I remembered watching John Gray on Oprah with my mom back in the 90’s.

While dated in terms of style, I was shocked at how useful it was.

Little did I know, he has a deeply spiritual (and sexual) past.

I was also surprised that John had a lot to say about semen retention1 when I interviewed him.

I’m preparing an episode on Evolution of Men’s Personal Development where I reference 90’s self-help as a specific data point in the male collective unconscious. I was reminded of Men Are From Mars and decided to repost this favorite.

Here’s the original YouTube video from then. (It’s reposted on all the podcast apps.)

If you want to learn my take on semen retention, I’ve giving away Arousal Control Mastery (normally $497) for free to anyone who does the Anabolic Psyche mini-course within a timeframe.
