[Episode 88 of The Intentional Clinician Podcast]
Today’s episode makes use of unusual and “offensive” terminology in order to drive home some bigger ideas. This episode is for anyone interested in learning how to deal with some of the challenges in life, whether they are men or women or other people who want to know “Why do men behave this way.”
The authors of “Be Less Dickish,” David Coates and Corey Kilpack, meet with Paul Krauss MA LPC to talk about male archetypes, how to deal with stress, emotional challenges, and relationship problems, as well as their book.

What is Be Less Dickish? We took intense and familiar labels which are assigned to men—and did something transformative. “Asshole, douchebag, pussy and dick.” Most of us have a visceral response to these labels, especially “pussy.” Up until now, these labels have been used as throw-away insults and judgments. Initially, many may want to turn away from these harsh identifiers, yet they are part of the everyday vernacular. Our research and work removed the generalization, fear, and loathing from these words and translated the energy into definitions and strategies that are positive, qualitative and meaningful.
