Paradise Lost | Why Men Fear Beauty & Women Want Guys Who Respect Themselves
"Paradise Lost is not just the story about the beginning of humanity, it's the story of happiness and misery, heaven and hell, played out in each and every one of us. As a great poet, John Milton makes us see ourselves in the prototypical human beings—Adam and Even—as well as in the supernatural embodiment of evil, Satan himself. But Milton was more than a poet. He was a master psychologist who plumbed the depths of the human mind, and he remains (in my opinion) unsurpassed in his literary and poetic examination of the relationship between the sexes, including how women affect the way men think and vice versa. The epistemological implications are startling. But more important are the implications for our own relationships since, in the end, so much of our lives are bound up in our sexual relationships." from the video introduction
