“Am I a Man-Hater?” – A Personal Reflection on Patriarchy, Anger, and Misunderstanding

Dating in a Broken System

How Capitalism, Mistrust, and Culture Wars Are Making Real Connection Almost Impossible  It's not just the apps. It's not just you. Modern dating is collapsing under the weight of something much bigger, systemic mistrust between men and women, a capitalist structure that was never built for intimacy, and a cultural moment where Epstein files and online "academies" make it hard to know who to trust. Silja brings her perspective as an Authentic Relating facilitator to ask: how do we actually find each other again? Want to go deeper on this? On May 30th, I'm hosting a free 90-minute live conversation: Have We Forgotten How to Date? [https://silbuch.de/webinar#signup]  We'll explore the dating crisis together — honest, unfiltered, and without easy answers. Join me live from wherever you are.

“Am I a Man-Hater?” – A Personal Reflection on Patriarchy, Anger, and Misunderstanding

I've been called a man-hater more than once , especially when I speak out about patriarchal structures or advocate for women’s rights. In this raw and honest episode, I explore where this label comes from, what I actually feel toward men, and how my experiences – from childhood to womanhood – have shaped my perspective. This is a reflection about fear, frustration, and the deep longing for a world where women feel safe. If you’ve ever been accused of being “too much,” “too angry,” or “too feminist”, this episode is for you. Find me at www.silbuch.de
