SHOVANIST: A Chauvinist Story by Adam Cerny (based on the book "Men are Better than Women" by Dick Masterson)

SHOVANIST: A Chauvinist Story by Adam Cerny (based on the book "Men are Better than Women" by Dick Masterson)

🛑❌CAUTION: Rated R for LANGUAGE. If subjects surrounding Gay Marriage or Gender Equality are a TRIGGER for you, please, pass on viewing this film❌🛑

(Note: This is an acting piece based on the book “Men are Better Than Women” by Dick Masterson. To purchase his book on Amazon, click HERE 👉🏻https://amzn.to/2Q188OC👈🏻)

I want to teach a little lesson on the topic of HATE. If you feel triggered, don’t read further. If you’re open, let’s go.
This movie is going to test you. I mean, REALLY test you.
I want you to challenge yourself.
I want to see how long you can listen to the character in this film talk before you explode with anger, or shut off with disgust.
For every time you reach a “crisis moment”, or a moment where you think I’ve gone “too far”…

1.) Stop the video and write down on paper the specific words that offended you.
2.) Identify with your fear (after all, pushing anything away from you is always operating from a place of fear, **WINK**) How do you do this? By feeling the emotion you experience, capturing it, and then put its essence to paper, again. Adjectives.
3.) I want you to look at the emotion you’ve written down on paper. Feel it. Now - think back - way back - to the VERY first time you remember feeling that specific emotion. Go back as early as you can.
4.) What was going on then? What caused you to assign the meaning (emotion) you did, to the particular event?
5.) Do you enjoy feeling this emotion? If yes, proceed no further. If no, let’s go.
6.) Think about what’s good about feeling this emotion. Think, search, find everything that is “good” about your emotion, and write it down.
7.) You’ve just brought a shadow aspect of yourself into the light. Congratulations. 🙏🏻❤️ This means the reaction you had to the film…(this will blow your mind lol)…had NOTHING TO DO WITH THE FILM. Whoa! Did I blow your mind, there? It’s a conditioned response to an event in your early childhood where you assigned an emotion to it. It worked at the time, yes. It’s outdated, though. Look at this self-awareness you have now! Imagine how many times you’ve looked at events in your life through this ORIGINAL lens you created. You just identified it.

I go after Feminism and Gay Rights in this film because they are hot topics, buzzwords + are all still a conglomeration of issues that are not yet solved. Even today. Gloria Steinem only opened the door to the Playboy Mansion, right? We need more people to step through it if there’s going to be an effective change.

Change”. Another awesome buzzword. So often used, so rarely seen. Much like how we treat the fact that the behavior shown in this film is a reality, today.

I’m going to be really real. Our society has an embarrassingly Kindergarten-approach to emotions + emotional intimacy + equality. The character in this film is the perfect representation of everything that makes us cringe. He’s purposely tapping into an emotional space that we leave unexplored.

Why do these jokes exist, to begin with? Have we asked that question? How do we find humor in dire situations? Why do we find humor? Is there a purpose to it?

Another question we could consider asking ourselves is: where do I feel comfortable “drawing the line”? What’s your threshold? This film will most definitely challenge your ability to withstand a satirist view of an unbelievably ignorant truth.

Yes - people like this really do exist.
How does that make you feel?
Let’s talk about it.

Thank you so much for watching!
