Topic: Equality

Johnny Jensen wraps up the episode by encouraging listeners to share the podcast and join the Team Super Dad community. He emphasizes the mission of the Hero Academy to support motivated men in becoming confident leaders within their families. The sign-off reinforces a vision of modern masculinity that embraces equality and active participation in children's lives.

Following a previous discussion with men and women, the hosts clarify the definition of feminism as the principle of equal rights between sexes. They discuss teaching children about the gender pay gap and criticize how the term has been hijacked by extreme online rhetoric.

Joe Baldwin advocates for voting for women in local and national politics to ensure female perspectives are present in governance and policing. The discussion shifts to grassroots accountability, urging men to call out their friends for sexist jokes or "banter." They highlight the double standard of men who celebrate International Women's Day while simultaneously engaging in or ignoring harassment.

Glenn and Joe Baldwin discuss the necessity of having 50% female representation at the highest levels of government, including Number 10. They argue that without women in senior decision-making roles, men's issues will always be prioritized subconsciously. They also reiterate the importance of reporting every incident to ensure the police have accurate data to allocate resources.

The hosts announce an upcoming special episode featuring Liz Evanden and Joe Baldwin Trot to discuss the societal fallout of the Sarah Everard case. They define feminism as a pursuit of total equality in both domestic roles and professional rights, rather than a movement for female superiority. The segment emphasizes the importance of men listening to women's lived experiences regarding safety and the "unknown unknowns" of gender-based fear.

The host emphasizes that modern dads must take responsibility for their share of domestic life, including cooking and cleaning, rather than expecting romance without effort. He argues that a successful relationship is a "quid pro quo" where men must be brave in their communication and generous in their actions before making demands on their partners.

The conversation shifts to the complexities of modern masculinity and how movements like Me Too affect the confidence of "everyday good guys" in social interactions. The host addresses the term "toxic masculinity" and argues for a balanced approach to gender equality that doesn't demonize men. He draws parallels to learning from the Black Lives Matter movement, emphasizing that open dialogue is the only way to broaden perspectives on sensitive social issues.

Jensen and Collins discuss the balance of masculine and feminine energies in a partnership, using the "yin and yang" analogy. They announce plans for a future Team Super Dad weekend event featuring firewalking and empowerment exercises in Fife. Collins provides her contact information for listeners seeking hypnotherapy or NLP coaching via Skype and Zoom.
