We find things that speak to us, and we take them or leave them. The whole point of personal growth, is experimenting with new ideas and concepts. That is not the same as "someone telling you what to do". If it resonates with you, you're going to consider it, if not, you're going to reject it.

I don't understand where people who are actively clicking a link and reading an article are left with a feeling that someone has just told them what to do and is keeping score. It's all in your head.

FWIW my personal opinion, (and Steve brought this up with his examples of poor male role-models) is that men in this generation can definitely benefit from a new way of thinking. It worked for me.

And I can't be all that different, I grew up with the same cultural conditioning most men I know grew up with.
