I just finished reading a book called "Male menopause" by Jed Diamond. I would highly recommend it to everyone
on this board. I never thought that I was going through menopause but the more I read this book I found out how wrong I was. We are going through the same thing as our spouses. The science of it is much slower than the female version but it is the same. The lessons that we are learning as the LBS all contribute to our passing though this time of our life. We need to do things to pass though our middle life transition to the beginning of the next part of our life but none the less it is all there. As I read of everyone's trials and tribulations with their spouses or ex-s I realize that we all must "grow up". This book is helping me to see what is happening much more clearly!

There are parts on sleeping patterns, snoring, mentoring, hormones, and of course sex. There is a companion book that I am going to read next called "Surviving Male Menopause for men and women" I will report on that when I get done. There is also a huge resource section for all sorts of things related to this.

Reading books is really a 180 for me. I don't think that I read 1 book in the last 35 years. Now when I get done with the books I have right now I will be up to 10 books so far since June.

Thanks again Snodderly for recommending this one.
I still need to find M GO BLUE posts about this book.
But here is the link to his thread if any one else wants to read him. It seems that Paul was a very good DB'er. His writings are also included in the resources.

My wife does a lot of reading, she always has! It is going to take me quite a while to catch up with her. LOL!
