Interview topic: Stormy Daniels’ lawyer arrested on charges of abuse Guest: Stefan Aarnio Intro: With so many people jumping on the #MeToo Movement, it takes something really big or unusual to make big headlines but this one just did. Michael Avenatti, the lawyer of pornography actress Stormy Daniels, was arrested on accusations of domestic violence. While we are not discussing the specifics in these allegations, it does bring up the issue of pornography and abuse. Our guest Stefan Aarnio says he believes there is a connection between pornography and abuse and that neither is something a real man should be associated with.

This book is raw, real and politically incorrect, it will threaten and challenge your ideas of what does it mean to be a man and how to better serve your purpose. As the cycles of history prove over and over again: Hard Times Create Strong Men Strong Men Create Good Times Good Times Create Weak Men Weak Men Create Hard times Q3) How does the percentage of these real men today compare to real men in past generations? A: It's hard to say how many "real men" are out there these days. There are so many fatherless homes without fathers to teach their sons how to treat women, love women, and become respectable men. 50% of marriages end in divorce and in most divorce cases the fathers are abs
