It is not the pain of a broken bone or an open wound. It is quieter than that. It lives in the decisions you make without questioning them. In the sacrifices you offer without being asked. In the standards you accept for yourself that you would never accept for anyone else you love.
Most men carry this pain their entire lives and never once trace it back to its origin. This book exists to trace it back. Before you go further, I need you to understand something clearly because this book will be misunderstood by those who have not read it and questioned by those who feel seen by it.
The Programmed Man is not a book about hating women. It is not a book telling men to abandon their nature, run from responsibility or become cold and selfish. If that is what you are looking for, close this book now because you will not find it here.
What you will find is the truth. Not a comfortable truth. Not the kind that makes everyone feel good and changes nothing. The kind that sits with you at 2am and makes you replay moments in your life differently. The kind that makes you look at certain decisions you made, certain sacrifices, certain silences, certain times you shrunk yourself and finally understand why you made them.
You were not weak. You were not foolish. You were programmed. From the moment you were born, society began writing a code into you. Your parents ran it. Your school reinforced it. The movies you watched installed it deeper. The music, the religion, the culture Nigerian or American or anywhere in between all of it contributed line by line to a program running silently in the background of every choice you make and most men never even know the program exists.
This book is for the 18 year old man standing at the beginning of his life, about to make decisions that will cost him years if no one tells him the truth now. This book is for the 35 year old man sitting with quiet confusion, wondering why doing everything right still left him empty, broke, or alone. This book is for the 50 year old man who finally sees the pattern and wants to make sure his son does not repeat it. This is for all of you.
Now let me be precise about one more thing before we begin. This book will talk about women. It will talk about behaviors, patterns and conditioning that exist within female culture both in Nigeria and America and beyond. It will name things that society has made it almost illegal for a man to say out loud.
But naming a pattern is not the same as condemning an entire gender. Women are also conditioned. They did not invent these patterns alone. Society built them too, told women what to do with their bodies, their emotions, their relationships. This book does not ignore that.
What this book refuses to do is pretend that male conditioning does not exist simply because talking about it makes people uncomfortable. A man who sees clearly is not a bitter man. He is a dangerous man, dangerous to every system that profits from his blindness.
This book will also never tell you to stop being a protector or a provider. Those are not weaknesses. They are part of the deep and powerful nature of manhood when directed correctly. The key word is correctly.
A lion does not offer his strength to every creature in the jungle. He is discerning. He knows who he protects, who he hunts for and who he walks away from. That discernment is not cruelty, it is wisdom.
That is what this book will teach you. Not to hate. Not to run. Not to harden your heart until nothing gets in. But to see. To think. To choose deliberately, consciously and without apology.
You were programmed before you could think. It is time to think for yourself.
— Matthew T.A
The most dangerous slave is the one who believes he is free.

Descripción de la tienda
**Please note our transit times are from the date of dispatch.** We first started out as “The Paperback Exchange,” a chain of physical bookstores where we would part exchange your beloved books for new stories to transport you to faraway places. However, as shopping started to evolve to online shops and marketplaces, we bid our stores goodbye to become “PBShop.” This transition has only allowed us to blossom as we now ship thousands of titles to book lovers across the globe. We pride ourselves in being a community of local book lovers which allows our passion and devotion to shine in everything we do. In 2020 we not only celebrated our 20th birthday but our 1st birthday as being completely employee owned after becoming an E.O.T in September 2019. We are proud to be different and embrace standing apart on a book mountain by working from a virtual inventory which allows us to provide thousands of books that may be difficult to get for your bookshelf or your studies. Working with a number of different suppliers allows us to explore other avenues such as puzzles, sheet music and even stationery so we really do have something for everyone. Life is about being versatile in all realms of existence. If this is your first purchase with us, or you are a returning customer, we would like to welcome you to the PBShop family, for there is no friend as loyal as a book. We are a company who put our customers at the centre of everything we do as we understand the importance of reading because once you learn to read, you will forever be free. There are a whole lot of things in this world of ours that we are yet to explore, which is why we will forever inspire curious minds.…
