Why Men Are Afraid of Women What if fear—not hatred or indifference—is what’s driving the disconnection between men and women? In this episode, Jackie sits down with Gary Katz, LCSW, CSAT, to explore a surprising but deeply human truth: many men are afraid of women. But not in the way you might think. We talk about: What men are actually afraid of when it comes to women How early attachment wounds and social messaging shape male fear The link between fear, control, and intimacy avoidance How this fear shows up in sex addiction, betrayal, and emotional disconnection What healing looks like—for both men and the people who love them This is a nuanced and honest conversation about masculinity, shame, vulnerability, and the path forward. Whether you’re a man trying to make sense of your own fear or someone impacted by it, this episode offers insight and compassion for the work ahead.  Hit play to listen now.  Drop a comment if this episode helped you see something new.  Don’t forget to subscribe and share with someone who needs to hear this.    Resources:  visit intimacyrecovery.com for more information on Gary's work and upcoming events.  Follow Therapy Tribe on Instagram for updates and community events.
