“Let it be known, from this day forward, “RECLAIMING MY TIME” will be the rallying cry of every woman interrupted, ignored and sidestepped in the board room and beyond. May Maxine Waters continue to grace us with her badassery.” — Gretchen Kelly

Comments in our GMP Premium Community Group on Facebook included these:
Person 1
“Why don’t we believe women?” They are simply not taken [to be] serious. And that is partly believed because women don’t have as much real power as men—not where it counts, not in government or corporations. And people with power are believed more than people without it.
Exactly! And we see a big difference with how those being questioned respond to women on the committee vs. [how they respond to] the men. The bottom line is Mnuchin didn’t stop talking until the male head of the committee backed Waters. Women in power have to continually fight to prove that they do in fact have the power.

The Good Men Project is different from most media companies. We are a “participatory media company”—which means we don’t just have content you read and share and comment on but it means we have multiple ways you can actively be a part of the conversation. As you become a deeper part of the conversation—The Conversation No One Else is Having (TM)—you will learn all of the ways we support our Writers’ Community—community FB groups, weekly conference calls, classes in writing, editing platform building and How to Create Social Change.

We believe you will enjoy contributing to a mission-based publication that has a vast reach and high engagement. We’ve built an incredible community here, and people who join The Good Men Project know that they have helped build something extraordinary.
Anyone can contribute, anyone can take part in The Good Men Project in some way. But if you really want to be a deeply engaged part of our community, please consider joining our Good Men Project Premium Membership community.

if you want to build a bigger platform for your message and be a bigger part of spreading the message of The Good Men Project, you’ll want to join our Premium Member Community where you’ll have access to Calls with the Publisher, our private Facebook group, and training calls that teach you how to leverage what we’ve learned about tribe building and content promotion to increase your audience on any media site or your own blog.

The trainings themselves are packed with information and designed to help you succeed–whether here at The Good Men Project or at any other media company you where you contribute. Our Social Interest Groups, will give you an even deeper way into the community by being able to connect with people who share your interests and values.
Are we charging people to write for us? Absolutely not. We have tons of people published every day who aren’t members. Are we charging people to be part of a community where we offer everything in our arsenal to help them to be successful with their content and the change they want to create in the world? Yes, yes we are. And we’re kind of proud of just how much we give our members.
However, you engage with The Good Men Project—you can help lead this conversation about the changing roles of men in the 21st century. Join us!
