There seem to be as many books catering to women readers about menopause, as there are variations of how women experience menopause. I guess that's why women differ on how long they go through menopause; it lasts until they find the book that describes precisely how they are going through it, and then they can be cured. But I have yet to find a book that helps men get through menopause. And why is the word "men" in the word "menopause"? It's because we men are blazing through life, having just grasped our second wind after navigating through our own mid-life crisis. Then all of a sudden, we're blasted by some unknown force that comes out of nowhere. It stops us dead in our tracks. We are suddenly "men-on-pause": dumb-founded and fear-stricken, facing a series of life-storms that no one prepared us for because no one ever used to talk about it. Over the past few years, the silence has been broken for women. It's time that it was broken for men.
