Reaction to Dax -To Be A Man (MEGA REMIX) [ft. Atlus, Phix, Brutha Rick, The Mediary, Thagreatwhite

[@09kokanee09]

As a man, it's been instilled into us since birth. Men will not burden woman with our problems, we carry that alone. When you ask your boyfriend and he doesn't want to tell you, it's because he cares, and will not allow you to carry any of that weight.

[@donholliday2068]

This is exactly how I feel. This is a great way of explaining why we keep things to ourselves.

[@rodnikify]

And not only is a man not going put our problems on our women. But we will take as many of her problems off her shoulders as we possibly can on top of our own.

[@jaredroberts578]

Truth, self-relfected with those words and both comments before mine.

[@emperorkingwill1093]

Truer words have never be spoken.

[@peytoncriss7924]

So true. And I'm not even out of my teens and yet the only people I can talk to are other guys.

[@johnstrome007]

The only way a man can share his feelings is if he's the submissive. I often hear people say that men can share their feelings. However, that's true only in the fantasy of a woman's mind. If a man shows his fears, he is automatically put aside. A woman needs the man to be strong; nothing else works in reality. If you're a woman, meet your man at the end of the day with open arms and no questions. That tells him that you are there for him. Men are simple. If a man believes that he is your protector and that you appreciate him, he will always be there for you.

[@TruthIsTheNewH8]

That hug and appreciation gives us exactly what we need to keep pushing. We dont need to talk about our stresses with our wife. We need our wife to understand We have a lot on our shoulders, show appreciation, and be the cure to our headaches instead of a cause.

[@NJTJAG]

To really try to understand the depth of this message as a woman you should WATCH THE REACTION OF MEN watching this. I guarantee you have NEVER SEEN SO MANY MEN CRY. This song is a healing. Men finally feel as though they have been seen. Dad gave them a SAFE SPACE to express what they can not say.

[@nicholaswilkerson4394]

The unfortunate truth of the matter is that no matter who it is that tells us its OKAY to be vulnerable with them, it almost never works out how it should. For a lot of men (myself included), the significnt others we have had throughout our lives who have assured us that its okay to show our emotions and be vulnerable with them, its always different when we actually DO it. They wind up using those vulnerabilities against you as a weapon during arguments or breakups. Hell, some of them, they just get completely turned off. A lot of women believe men are simply emotionally constipated, or that we just dont have any measure of emotional intelligence. But thats not true at all. Most men (at least in my own experience) do feel. Very deeply. Its just that society as a whole tells us its wrong for us to have any excess of emotion beyond anger. Young boys/men are often actively punished for showing emotion or crying, whereas young girls/women are encouraged to, and rewarded for expressing theirs. Its easy to not notice, because its been that way for so long. The cycle needs to be broken. Its one of the main reasons, i think, that we lose over 800,000 men a year globally to s*icide.

[@jeromysmith2486]

In my life I have had 6 very deep connections with women, of those 6 only 2 (1 was my grandmother) didnt use my vulnerability against me, and one of those 6 was my mother, who is not one of the 2. I almost ruined my marriage because I had a hard time allowing myself to be vulnerable. For many men, the pain it causes outweighs the pain you are relieving, so it just isnt worth it.

[@nicholaswilkerson4394]

@jeromysmith2486 I find a character in one of my favorite shows says it best. He says "it's possible he expected you'd know without him saying anything. Men prefer, in general, to let their actions speak, instead of words." I won't lie, I'm guilty sometimes of the same thing I have issues with when women do it. That is to say, not being fine even though we say we are. That said, there's a difference. Usually, they say nothing because we should KNOW why they're angry, according to them. We say nothing because when men are in pain, they don't want to burden anybody else with it, ESPECIALLY their loved ones. Not to mention it being far more accepted, in today's world, for women to speak when they hurt than it is for men to do it. We aren't all lucky enough to have partners who truly MEAN it when they ask us to be vulnerable with them, and those of us who are that lucky.... well, they need to hold onto that person and never let go. It's not easy to find. Especially in western society.

[@kctv524]

I definitely understand where you guys are coming from but why not see a therapist then? Theres many affordable ones or some you can get through insurance but what matters is talking to someone. I do hope this changes as well ❤

[@dozydreamer3844]

@@kctv524 Unfortunately therapy doesn't work for most men. its sad but true. Most men find that if we have problems we want ways to actually fix them, just talking about the issue we have doesn't solve them. When we do talk about our issues they usually get thrown back at us at a later date in an argument/ or confrontation, or worse we have to apologise because us telling how we feel makes our partners upset, and then it becomes a whole new issue of trying to comfort our girlfriends/partners because of how our feelings made them feel. I'm lucky to have found my wonderful wife, who has never judged me for expressing my feelings to her, and has completely supported me through my darkest times, I would move mountains for this woman if she asked me too as a result of how she treats me. it's a shame that it took me so long to find a woman like her, truly one of a kind.

[@nicholaswilkerson4394]

@@kctv524 were it so easy. I can barely afford both rent and food, I can't imagine trying to pay for a therapist. I know I need one, regardless of my biological sex. But the point is that it shouldn't be this way o begin with. I shouldn't need a therapist to express my emotions. It should be as acceptable for me to cry as a woman. I shouldn't feel like I have to keep my emotions to myself. I shouldn't feel like nobody gives a shit about my emotions.

[@kingkalous727]

I am sorry about this comment but no it hasn't changed most men do not have a place to go to talk about there feelings or the stress they go threw and you can't always go to your partner in life they never look at you this same way. I love your compassion. Be blessed.

[@UpInYourFeelings]

We go through a lot and nowhere to release the pressure, there's way too many that'll only use it against us later on.

[@LeviF17]

I agree 100% amazing review. But it's only has got worse in 2024. Be we need to come together and this world for all mental anguish. But like he says, I Don't Expect You To Understand"

[@mikedeeg2432]

Yeah my wife doesn't want to hear shit about how I feel

[@SQuiD_HiMSeLF]

Facts, she proved the point of the video in less that a minute.

[@SoH2024]

The worst thing I did was share my fears to my ex partner who was a narcissist.Worse place I ever placed on myself so I locked away and drowned in alcohol and cigarettes

[@Brothersam]

Men can never fully open up. Our fears, our joys, our depravity, our sorrow, our love, our compassion. I've watched my dad go through it all. Compassion enough for a bird he was hunting to end it's suffering. Compassion for our family dog when he had to ease their suffering swiftly. Compassion for us kids when he had to be stern when the pain was in his eyes or the disappointment. The fear in his eyes when I was concussed. The fear in his voice when he told us he almost lost his wife, our mom, to our sister's physically violent manic depressive bi-polar outburst. The sorrow and pain when he lost his mom. The joys when he saw us learn and grow. The pain in his body every day as cancer riddled his lungs with death that would consume his bones. We didn't know, because he was strong for us. He hid it, he sheltered us, he showed us courage in death when he was lieing in the hospital bed, knowing he was dieing but still smiling and laughing and telling us to trust God and that everything will be alright. The defiance he had in his heart, the heart of a giant lion, under massive sedation for his pain, with a tube down his throat, he fought to remove it, fought my brother's massive hands from a laying position and pulled the tube out. He fought death to the end and he won in his terms. Loving and forgiving, defiant and compassionate, full of grace and full of hope. No, we can't open up about who we are and what we think and feel; because it terrifies those around us. It worries those around us. It confuses those around us. We are giants with the hearts of lions, and lord willing, we will display this on our death bed, defiant to submission of death and sorrow till our last breath. We know joy, we know pain, we envision it every day and we're called paranoid. We plan for it and we're called negative. We go over the worst things that could happen to the ones we love the most, on repeat, every day, and what to do to save them. Because we plan, we prepare, we understand the horrors of this world. To all the men that feel the same, you don't need to speak on it. We're together on this. I'm there with you when you feel alone and broken, I'm there with you when you're succeeding in life but you remain calm and stoic, ready for the next challenge. I got you, we got you. When you need that strength, when you need that speed, when you need that reflexive arm, when you need that foreboding feeling of danger, we're with you to give you whatever we can to help you. Men can't open up, but we can stand in solidarity with each other and say, I'm with you. You've got this.

[@Dsmwarrior1996]

That second ladies verse is probably the most poignant for us men, because for many of us, that's the first time we've ever heard a woman say "I'm sorry" like that and not in a "I'm sorry that happened to you" type of way, if that makes sense

[@heidilarson3283]

This mega remix song deserves a spot on the radio

[@JonathanBoden-u5p]

As an old divorced vet, with TBI and PTSD, existing under a VA program for homeless vets. Who spends most of his time alone fighting the battle within, yeah this hit home for me. It is what it is.

[@shinjusmith5293]

Please tell your boyfriend that "he's got this" from time to time. These simple words carry are truly motivational for many men.

[@markothevrba]

Simple thanks or good job goes a long way, sadly that seems too hard to do.

[@aaronryan1282]

This is why the lyrics say "I don't expect you to understand what it's like to be a man". Even though modern times have been a little more forgiving openly about mental health and men's emotional state, you will notice that most of the men in this video are young men not older men, which means even with a bit more acceptance, nothing has really changed. We work what we hate to provide for what we love. Men are problem solvers, they are protectors, they measure their success in life not by the numbers they pull in via a paycheck but by the successes of those they are entrusted to love, protect, and provide for. Most men carry the weight of their decisions on them like a pair of clothing and judge themselves based on the condition of that clothing. So if circumstances around start falling apart, we lose a job, we can't get our kid into that better school, our wife feels a need that we are not immediately able to fulfil, we wear those issues like they are our fault. We feel like we fail, because once again we measure our success by the success of others, and if they are not where they want to be, we shoulder that as if we are the fault causing that. Even though there are women who support their man and are good to their man, if that man went through any relationships where a woman didn't they might shy away from being honest or real with you because the last person they trusted to be vulnerable with used that vulnerability against them. If we can't feel safe with the person we are supposed to feel the most safe with, we will be less and less likely to be vulnerable with them or any one else in the future. Especially when that vulnerability is used against us further down the road. Most men try to provide safety, but in turn rarely feel safe enough with anyone to be that exposed. Many men feel that when the going gets tough, that those we provide for get going. Dax said in his original version of "To be a Man, Unconditional love is for women, children, and dogs." Men often face this reality because when we struggle or suffer who can we turn to without the potential for them to throw the struggles back in our face. As long as we provide, put on a happy face, and keep everyone safe we are accepted and loved. But as soon as we falter, fail, struggle internally, or attempt to express that struggle we get shut down. Not all, but some, wonder "Would they stay with me if I was unable to provide an easier life for them? Would they be here for me or are they just here for the security I provide?" Men are also quiet emotionally by nature to a certain extent because they want to shield everyone from the horrors they may face from day to day. They also invest so much of their love and emotion into the relationships that matter most to them. Which is why Widowers tend to suffer worse than Widows. Women tend to have a pretty deep inner circle plus their children if the man dies, men tend to only see there spouse as that very best friend so when she is gone we have little to no one to turn to. Which then brings up the line in this remix, "We grow cold, dark, and numb as we slowly die. You ever why it's mostly men who commit suicide? We figure why not we are already dead inside." Our partners are our emotional anchor and without them and without support we just contain the pain and eventually shut down. Men find purpose in being a provider, or protector, or a form of security. All human being struggle discovering what the purpose of their life is, what anyone's purpose is. Being these things are what make men feel like their lives matter, like their existence matters. I personally believe in God and the hope that He provides that my life is precious to Him, precious enough for Him to provide Jesus as a way to bridge the gap and connect with me. So in that faith I find an even greater purpose, but even I struggle, I can't imagine how much more those men without faith and with no family scream inside their minds trying to discover why they exist, which I know both men and women feel this way. Imagine having your world fall apart around you and no one to turn to and no one to trust. Men also feel they have to make a name for themselves, because that name, that proof that they existed is the only way to measure up to everyone else's expectations of them. I bear the surname Ryan, and as such I have often felt I need to bear the legacy of that name gloriously. Mostly because of many of the horrors my father, his father, and the fathers before that created. I am the ender of a multi-generational curse, one formed long ago, and as such I want to do everything in my power to do what is right for the sake of my faith, the sake of my wife who I adore, the sake of my children I didn't rear into this world but are mine through an even stronger bond then DNA; Love. So when I falter and fail, I often bear the pain of feeling I am not living up to this new generational bond. I just want to love, provide for those I do love, and truly be loved unconditionally in return. You seem to be a deeply caring and emotional young woman, and I hope as more and more people discuss these internal issues men face, that you grow in that caring and wisdom. We may never understand the opposite sex completely, but we should do everything we can to be kind, loving, and supportive of anyone we cross paths with. Thank you for your tears, and for your review of this wonderful message within this song.

[@finlander4065]

First time watching your reactions. I look forward to seeing more! Thank you!

[@originofisanity7650]

Nothing has changed. If we show emotion, people want nothing to do with us. Man are just used, betrayed and abandoned. We suffer more than anyone and no one cares. Not even when we are dead and gone. Women just move on to the next guy

[@Goes2WarAlone]

Don't ever tell your wife/girlfriend your problems. She will use it against you in an argument... and you will NEVER forget it. Family and male friends are the only ones you can/should vent to.

[@starsoldier3643]

This is why men are more conservative and woman are more liberal. The ladies have lost their way.

[@mobilemodular5725]

Cry around your woman: Divorce. Lose your job: Divorce Get sick: Divorce. Not all....but most.

[@scottp.2995]

This either hurts, if your honest and introspective - or you just have NO feelings or understanding for others! Period...

[@pnwcruiser]

As a man I can tell you many of us are fine with dealing with stresses of our jobs internally, in fact dealing with it is just part of the job. It does come naturally and it is an important capability. On the job it is absolutely not OK to let emotions impact your effectiveness, perhaps most obvious in military tactical environments, because the wellbeing of others depends on your focus and determination. Nobody wants to hear their fellow fighters complaining or feeling sorry for themselves (there is no point, and they don't). I for one prefer to find my own peace of mind, I don't need or want to burden anyone else and I honestly don't want to talk about it. I simply wish for a peaceful, loving home...which I'm now old enough to understand is the only thing that is really worth fighting to protect. It is important to note most men, even combat vets, ultimately enjoy full lives with those they love no matter what they must come to terms with internally.

[@johnbarton1690]

There are thousands of wives out there that would rather watch there husband die than watch him break down in tears

[@WOLFBLADE944]

As a 56 year old man from a young boy i was raised by my dad to grow up to be hard... no crying unless you are dying or deaths in the family, and i couldn't act soft because he didn't want my two younger brother to see me break... When it was just my mom and me at home sometimes i would break down but she ended up passing away when i was ten... After she passed i became way more hard and put all feelings in a box and buryried it... i became destructive and hateful until i got older

Im from St. Joseph! Great review. Thank you!

[@stevemadrid6522]

I'm from GenX and I hate to admit that it's very difficult to express that I'm struggling to those around me. I was raised to believe that you take care of your family before you take care of yourself. I stay up late working on my small business, so my wife and daughter can sleep soundly. I teach at a high school for at-risk youth. I feel like I need to be strong for my students. They are struggling so much in their young lives. I just hope I can give them some tools to navigate this life. I definitely feel guilty when I take time for myself, but I feel like it's my lot in life to be the protector.

[@countryliving4life]

Ya but sometimes when we talk bout it women will use it against us

[@jimmybobsap8729]

Felt this my whole life only in last years I even allow myself to cry watching films. It’s hard to explain for real

[@RAPTOR18B]

The life of a man is as follows: the man is expected to bottle up his emotions as not to distract others from their work or life, work themselves to death, and die on the job in an attempt to provide for his family. He does not complain or gripe when times get tough, he simply pushes forward, as it is all he has known in his life. This might not be the right way, but it’s the way things have been done for centuries.

[@MasonBrown-r2z]

You have no idea how hard it is to laugh and smile then go somewhere to be alone just to cry a bucket full

Fantastic reaction. Watching you grow through this video was amazing. Love the men in your life with the fierceness they love you. Thank you for this.

[@andybernsdorff8860]

I'm sure you're already aware of this, but when a man expresses how he's feeling deep inside, he's entrusting you with something more precious than any of his other possessions. How you respond to his vulnerability teaches him whether it's safe to open up to you ANYMORE. It doesn't matter if you agree with what he's sharing. I've been married multiple times and I grew to learn that really sharing my deepest feelings with my wife didn't help anything. My current wife is the only woman (including my mother) that has actually made me feel appreciated for what I do. You don't have to win every disagreement because you can only draw so much liquid from a cup before it's completely empty. More than making your man feel loved, make him feel appreciated and he will move heaven and earth to take care of you.

[@fard031877]

[@gaulstonedog4633]

Thank you for watching this. Just listening to your boyfriend is probably enough for him. Most men learn very early to not be vulnerable around their woman because you risk losing her respect.

[@nicowest3249]

One last thought about men opening up to their significant other... the woman will Always use anything a man says, doesn't say, do or doesn't do, against the man, always. Ask any man... a woman will bring up something that she knows will 'punch him below the belt" with a moment of weakness or something he said, etc... even from 10 years ago. she will always blame him for how she chooses to feel. God help the man that ever falls off his 'white horse' in front of his significant other.

[@StephanieMonroe-cd1vs]

Exactly. You ain't lying

[@XxJRUSS0xX]

Trust me when i say this, as long as your their for him when hes struggling thats all he cares about, the response you get from him may not always show that, but just know he appreciates you recognizing he didnt have the best day, even if his response is "' i dont want to talk about it"

[@RagnarokPKXD]

So glad you're back. Please react to more Mr Wobbles

[@chacemartin7856]

You should check out the original with Dax's verses. If you haven't already, he went very deep as well

[@vernonmckee-gv9dp]

Truth is every man who has tried to open up to his wife or girlfriend has had at least one experience of his significant other throwing it back in his face and using it as a weapon against him. Then later on down the road when we men aren't even trying to speak on what we are going through on the inside anymore because we don't want it used against us again, we start getting told that we're too closed off, we are not communicating, and the lack of communication is a problem, and told we men are the only ones to blame. I'm sorry that i have to disagree with your assertion that things have changed, but the truth is that they haven't. And the few women out there that are more open minded as far as mutual communication and understanding remain few and far between. And us men never know if we have one of those few rare women until we try to communicate, which means we have to take a gamble on opening up, knowing we may be setting ourselves up for it being used as a weapon against us again. We already make a habit of internalizing all our own problems so we are protecting the women we love from having to carry the weight, plus we are also trying to be there to be supportive and carry as many of the women we loves problems as well, as you can imagine the last thing we need is for when carrying our problems and those we loves problems starts to be too much, and we take the risk of trying to open up about it, the very last thing we need is for somebody that we love and we are carrying all this weight on our shoulders for to just turn around and try to use us expressing ourselves as a weapon against us or as a way to belittle us for trying to bother to speak up about how we are feeling and what we are going through on the inside. I believe this song helps people understand better, and I am so thankful to Dax and the other amazing artists on this song for doing this.

[@tacocin]

[@robertdavis487]

Men don't talk! Our best friends are for our best jokes.. we cope in our own way. No one can help with that. Our main idea is problem solving women don't solve the problem, they want someone to listen to their problem not a solution

[@xVibeChecked]

3:20 nothing personal but i couldn't disagree more. especially the idea of sharing with your wife or girlfriend and that they'll understand. a lot of us have never heard "man up" or "be a man" from another man, we do it hear it a lot tho

[@NathanMalnaa]

4:53 that's my favorite verse. I've said that for years "most men are halfway dead inside" myself included

[@travissharpe2927]

They will lose all respect for you never do that.

[@bigkountry1429]

It's easy for someone to say, "just open up. We'll understand most of the time." As men, we won't risk that "most of the time" part. Pair that with the fact that we refuse to allow our spouse to carry our weight and worry, and you get the same answer when you ask 90% of men how they're doing and that is, "I'm fine." It's ingrained in our DNA.

[@josephhaines7806]

Dax is a different breed an amazing artist 🔥🔥🔥

[@chrismeyer7890]

My advice to the women out there. In the rare moments your man DOES open up to you. Listen. Be there. If you don't, him opening up will become less and less frequent, until it stops altogether. We don't need praise, just to be acknowledged. It's really that simple

[@oddlycurious8761]

This song hit me so hard when i heard it. The craziest thing is that there is part of me that wants women to hear this song, but at the same time, i don't want women to know this burden because we shouldn't both have to live with it. It makes me happy to know that at least women get to live life free of these struggles.

[@irish_ladd4]

I am new to your channel. Love your reaction and what you said.

[@Zentinalphayze]

Thanks for this

[@getinTHEBIN318]

No it's not change. Women have careers as a man i think thats an amazing push forward for women. Although, women don't work as much as men and they don't push as hard as men. We are engrained with this. Women are more likely to not work over time because they want to socialise or just not work, thats when the man beside that women goes to work. So you can have a career and not have to make sure everything is going to be done. I hear all the time "i make more money than him, i provide more" great, but in the future you will hit a wall and the man will make it so you don't feel it.

[@ThePaeson]

True story, I told my parents once that I felt depressed and their actual response was "toughen up, you're a guy". Never ever told them another issue again. And that's the common response when we speak up. I can't speak for the number but if i were to guess, probably 80% of men all over the world feels this very deep to song because it's very true. Problem is that during the development stage in life everyone is so critical of everything so nobody can even slip up. And almost every guy with a decent father will do everything for their partner while most of it will always go unnoticed. We'll forever take our feelings and thouths to the grave because in the end, we do it for those who we love. And this will most likely be true for your father, lover, brother, son and so on.

You are so sweet. But some advice, men are stoic by nature. If you listen to the song again none of the men are complaining, just explaining. The highest population of emotional men,,, is in prisons. Generally us men don't have the emotional Super Power that women have we're simplly different. This video is a very good look for you and your kind heart.

[@darthcrio1]

Yea us guys can’t tell the one that we are with cuz once we do they thing that we are weak and they start to go looking for a different man

[@EnigmaticBroffalo]

For me, this song highlights my own self reflection. How can someone like me, a failure of a man who doesn't have enough money to buy a home and pay for a family, ever expect a woman to give herself to him and trust him? I should be able to, and I just feel so hopeless and alone at times because more than anything, I want to, but I can't provide enough, I'm not good enough. I know this is just some pathetic ranting, I found this song recently and this thought has been with me since the first time I heard it.

[@nicowest3249]

Men are not allowed to look weak... You say the word "but" or "should" etc. A woman has no respect for a man who is not providing, that is why they get stuck in a rut. When a man marries, it is out of un-conditional love; He wants his woman to always be the woman he fell in love with... When a woman marries, it is based on conditional 'love'; He has to have a certain income and have the ambition to make more, to provide more, never leave her wanting, always be strong so she can be weak... etc. It is very, very, very rare that a woman will have respect for a man if he shows any weakness, especially in today's society. listen to the original of this song by Dax... it how it has always been and will always be, for men.

[@good6589]

This song hits so real and deep it scares me even to admit that. :(

Therapy doesn't work for men, men want solutions to problems. Therapist dont give solutions they just ask questions.

Ah yo... You a real one Girl... He better not let you go .. keep being you!

[@GuyWilson706]

like the gentlemen of this thread, he doesn't want to give you any burden. The best thing you can do is be his peace and quiet, hug him and never forget to tell him that you value him and respect him, please laughter is the best cure!

[@Tokin420]

Check out Hi Ren by Ren. It's amazing. Words can't describe it

[@jkr2105]

Ok 1 sub from Indonesia. Be strong,❤

[@jdmadara]

One big thing women don't get. If you can actually get your man to open up to you. Don't you dare use that info to win an argument. You will never hear the full story from him again. Never. Break his trust, and it's gone. If all you ever get from him is "I'm OK" or "I'm alright" the trust is already broken. Fight like hell to get a piece of it back.

Great song great message this is what what got me into dax. Most songs are huge in messages. I relate a lot with this song. I love how other men show their side rather than just him, so he aint speaking for all us men. We all walk different but similar paths in life. Im not sure if you do recommendations or requests but I'll ask here. You should totally react to dax - dear alcohol (mega remix)

[@jkb76149]

Don't forget, Jesus wept and so brother so can you. Hits hard!!

[@notme7596]

awww KC crying has to be the cutest thing ive seen all 2024

[@ScottM436]

Only women think that it's different in today's day and age. Men know nothing has changed. Women also think that men learn this solely from other men including their father when in reality women are the biggest pressure we have to not show our feelings.

[@adam-gray]

Bro, she said she feels like that’s hiding feelings has changed. I shared my emotions with my girl at the time a while back , and she told me she “needed a man not a boy.”

[@itsyaboysaber784]

The reason why as men we keep everything inside is because we are taught to do so, me personally! The softest thing i have been told when i was showing emotions, was to suck it up!! SOME Women don’t realize how painful this is!! Now ok, we are the ones that are supposed to provide and protect, the issue isn’t there, but the issue accrues when we have to do that towards a woman who doesn’t appreciate it or even worse takes it for granted; i’m not trying to make all men look angels because that would be fake too but the mental and emotional damage we as men go through, just because we don’t speak up about it, doesn’t mean it doesn’t exist, how many men have been through hell because of the evil behavior of SOME women?? COUNTLESS!!

[@ScottEJPerez]

also, the guy in the I don’t know what football team it is the black with the bird on it. he had a hard ass verse in this song so good.

[@dulceninomalo]

therapy doesn't help as a man we talk about feelings we are looked at as week by men and women just the way it is

[@peacemaker6662]

If your first reaction, as a woman, is not to hug and show appreciation to the good men in your life... you haven't understood nor even heard a word.

[@johnbarton1690]

I can go on any dating site and in less than a hour I can give you a hundred names for women that want a masculine man ,a man that doesn't cry this song is a good start because it brings awareness but the world has a very long way to go

[@chrisvibz4753]

God bless you all. I pray to Almighty Yeshua God in the Flesh to bless you all. my fellow americans, i love you and would lay my life down for you.❤

[@WildBoy607]

Hey guys just remember she didn’t cry until the found a man she was attracted to… the chorus was always the same!

[@toohighstrung]

If you ever want to see people lose respect for you, cry in front of your girl.

[@Grobste520]

The girl at 10 minutes I didn't even know I needed to hear Her words so badly.That's a good song❤😢

[@jaimerivera6435]

The girl at 10 minutes is part of the problem. U paid attention to HOW she sang but missed WHAT she sang. “Demons in your head that tell you your less than”. It’s not demons ‘in our head’. It’s life. It’s the woman we provide for telling us we aren’t doing enough. It’s society that calls a man a deadbeat father when he IS TRYING to see his kids but she has weaponized them and uses them as leverage. It’s society telling us to get over it. Even this young lady said early on that it’s better for men to talk about their emotions now. How? Our feelings are used as ammo in arguments. They are put on display on KZbin and TikTok for views and likes. As a man we MUST hold our feelings in because we don’t have safe spaces. There’s no battered men shelters. As a man if we go to court, we have to fight so hard to be given a fair shake to be in our kids lives where women just have to show up. Demons in our head makes it seem as though we are imagining this all.

[@mickbrandt5588]

I hope you went and gave your boyfriend a big hug and held him tight and told him you support him. I come back to this music video and use it as my emotional song. im going through more stuff than i can count right now and can't find the hole to get out and tell my gf.

[@kennethvannatta5970]

I'm not crying you are

[@MrWhitearchon]

unfortunately this is the reality for most of us men i think and it is sad..

[@RogelioConejo2024]

Please share when you can. Enjoy your posts. Will enjoy when you post. Thanks.

[@mu2q962]

You have to watch the original music video for “to be a man” by dax. Not the remix with darius rucker but the orignal video 🙏🙏🙏🙏

[@reactjoemaliajuggalo1572]

1410 what do you think boys day is or I'm going out for a couple beers or I'm going up to play watch the game we don't say we're going out to break down but sometimes when we don't want you to be around the boys it's because we don't want you to see us weak and we know the boys accept it and won't bring it up ever again what will help us break

[@sifumode9460]

Think about cave men. If a bear wanted your cave, the men had to face the bear. He can't have a breakdown. He can't get weepy. He doesn't have time to talk about his fear about the situation. He FEELS those things, but he must suppress them and take action. He simply must face the bear. If he does not, does his family have confidence in him as the protector? Even after, if he breaks down, does his family have confidence in him for the next time? Or does that imply a lot of doubt in his own ability, and therefore, doubt from his family? So it is evolutionary psychology that women are attracted to stoicism. You can't help it if you "fall out of love" with a guy who expresses emotion. You probably don't even know that's WHY you feel different. But men experience this. We've seen it happen with relationships or even friends. For women, their survival in those societies revolved around social connections with the other women in their groups. Women usually performed their tasks, gathering, tanning hides, cooking, etc communally with the other women. Having good relationships is how they built security in the society. So women crave social connection. The problem is, those evolutionary psychological needs are still a part of our instinct, but not understanding them, women misplace the responsibility on men to satisfy them both despite them being mutually exclusive. A woman SHOULD be getting her social/emotional needs met by their female friends, not the men. If her man is too emotional, she can't help it but feel less confident in him as a protector/provider, and she loses her attraction to him. She THINKS she wants him to be "emotionally available" without understanding that her need for that does not mean HE should be satisfying it, and it will actually harm her "vibe" about him. This is one of the reasons why women are so adept at "reading the room" emotionally. It helped them with other women, but it has another effect. They should be able to tell when her man is going through something without him actually verbalizing it. Men don't have this sense and I think women REALLY have no clue that they see a part of the world that is truly invisible to men. A man doesn't have the same need to express emotion as women. A man just needs SUPPORT AND CONFIDENCE from his woman that he will work through it. That doesn't mean he can never express those emotions, but it is not safe for him to do so until he knows his wife has COMPLETE confidence in him, which could take YEARS, or possibly never.

[@LuckyGamez]

Nope...when a man is vulnerable, their partners loose faith and attraction to the...that's what MOST women do

[@yanzura1189]

Tetap semangat sayang.. 💪 Kamu tetap yg terbaik dan tercantik di dunia ini.. 😊

[@TheAsciiadam]

I would say that is not true. Most woman want a strong man, as soon as we cry, it's over. I know, my wife lost all feeling for me the first time I cried in front of her. It was night and day.

[@TheFoxhole78]

As a man I have heard if you need to talk come see me im here for you, well I can tell you now its all talk and bullshit, they say it to feel good about themselves, whenever anyone says it to me now I just say it's all good I will serve my purpose until I die then my life insurance can continue to provide when im gone, then I turn and walk away, its not worth any further effort than that
