This week’s midweek Manzilla podcast is all about spotting the signs of the menopause, and the andropause! The menopause should not be feared, at all, but as men it would really help if we can learn about the signs. It could explain why our partners are off with us for no apparent reason! Hormones, sex drive, appetite, mood swings. You name it.
Menopause education expert Dee Murray speaks to Gavin to give us a guide as to why and when the menopause happens, and how you can help. Also, for us men, the andropause is a similar thing. It’s where our testosterone levels gradually - and we lose interest in the stuff we used to love (you get me!!)…
You’ll hear:
The history of the menopause and why it happens 3:00
What to look in case you think your partner has it 4:20
The stigma around it towards women, and why men need to de-stigmatise it 6:10
S3x drive and it’s affected for men and women 8:20
Andropause 9:30
How the hormones are linked between men and women 12:50
Dee is founder of a group called Menopause experts. More on their work is here. https://menopauseexperts.com/about-menopause-experts-group/

This is a Manzilla podcast documentary show to mark 2021 International Men’s Day - the theme being to improve better relations between men and women. This documentary explores ideas and solutions around what MEN can do, should do, and must do to improve women’s safety.
We saw and heard harrowing details of the murder of Sarah Everard - and the killing of Sabina Nessa… the vast vast majority of these despicable and heinous acts are committed or facilitated by men. According to the Research for the Femicide Census - across the UK - 1,425 women were killed by men in the 10 years to 2018. They report most people found guilty of violent crimes against women are men. So what can we as guys do to step up, not feel blamed and take assertive action?
This show could trigger hard emotions, to do with :
Rape
Abduction
Sexual harassment
Stalking
Lewd behaviour
Details of murder
Aswell as:
Education around masculinity and the patriarchy
Toxic male behaviour
Lad culture
Relations around gender politics and chauvinism.
The aim of the show is promote and open safe discussion where each person can come to it fresh and hopefully get some insight from the powerful speakers below…
Jamie Klingler - the co-founder of Reclaim these Streets … the group set up after the murder of Sarah Everard, and for remembrance of all women lost to violence … they campaign for action to ensure no woman has to be asked ’text me when you get home’ again… https://twitter.com/ReclaimTS
Flora Henry - who is a journalist and writer, and talks openly about what it’s like when you’re harassed and the extent young women go to protect themselves. https://www.instagram.com/_floraharriet
Ben Bidwell - who is known as the Naked Professor online and is a men’s mindset and masculinity expert …we talk all things on how men need to think about this issue… https://www.instagram.com/thenakedprofessor
And Jess Phillips - Labour MP for Birmingham Yardley… Jess has done fantastic work in raising awareness for women’s safety for over a decade - and is one of THE strongest voices out there on the state of play, what needs to happen and how we need to start thinking about this more urgently now than ever. https://www.instagram.com/jessphillipsmp
