[@ryanl1293]

I think it's a holdover from a (far) past where men held the very real mantle of authority in their homes, so there was less risk of your little girl turning into that because you vetted her future husband and literally handed her over to his authority for her ultimate best interest. How much damage could girls and women really do in that scenario under the men? I think men really crave to dote on the women in their life, but it doesn't work without authority, because men actually ground women in reality as this woman was saying.

[@zarroth]

@@ryanl1293 Yep, because left to their own devices they will ALWAYS choose what excites them, instead of what's good for them. Giving them authority is always a mistake and ALWAYS leads to the decline of a society and the nation it inhabits. We're seeing it all over the west right now, especially since we aren't taught real history. Real history shows this happening to every major successful and golden era type empire where the citizens were actually content. They all gave them authority, and then collapsed soon after.

[@orangeandslinky]

We have to go behind your statement and understand that a woman NEVER is looking for a man that treats her well. See , we start off wrong with thinking that. No, they do not want a man that treats them well at all. We have to unlearn that too. They are into things for a day or a week then they are moving on to another unknown.

It saddens me, that i was engaged 4 times, and the first 3 left me for a guy who treated them like crap. Within 6 months the first 3 came back to me after they missed the man that treated her like a lady. I in turn I didn't want them anymore and moved on. They were so disappointed thinking that because she's a woman that I would want her back. The 4rth one we got married for 23 years have 2 children. But when this woke movement started to take hold, we started to drift apart. We are now divorced. But still best friends. I'm 55 years old and with the way females are taught I no longer want one. In the last 3 years I haven't touched, kissed, hugged any females. In my life I gave myself to one woman. Promised God till death do us part when I got married.

[@orangeandslinky]

When you are divorced, the LAST thing you are, are best of friends. You are supposed to say crap like that. Women do not believe in God and they are not people of covenant at all. You don't like that. I don't like that, but women now do everything they can to tell us that, and we must believe them. If a 10-year-old said, she thought anything was true, you would know that it was just for that moment in time, and what she said, she might have meant it. For sure the next day she will have a completely different focus and desire. If you love her and understand that she's only 10, you're ok with it. You never think like that when she's 30 and swearing to God, your family and hers, and your friends that she WANTS and WILL spend the rest of her life with you till death parts you. But, she is still 10 years old and HER DAY(the wedding day) is over. Is it any wonder that for the last 5,000 years men actually owned women like you own your children? They have no ability to live alone, but no 10 year old believe that.

On the point of the “3 - 5 years” thing, I think it’s our instant gratification society. Every new relationship has its “Honeymoon Phase”. That’s when she gets the meals, the gifts, the “chivalry”. Then it naturally wears thin. Women see their friends and their workmates and tv and social media and they want more - they want to “feel” like they did at the beginning of the “Romance” when they got pampered and they got all the attention. 3 - 5 years and that ain’t there anymore. A guy shows them attention, and they let go of the last grapevine after they have a good hold of the next vine. Then that one goes stale, and on it goes. Then no more grapevines. Just. One. Solid.

I agree totally that you give a more complete picture of why some females, lack accountability.

I haven't gone overboard to the point where she is past the point of change, mainly because my older daughter told me that I spoiled her too much, and to not do this to my little girl. but hearing what you have to say makes me realize how I need to guide her in the future. So you do make a difference. Incidentally, I treated my exwife very very special as well. Could not have been a better husband, in terms of listening, fostering her growth, and wanting her to feel special. The result was, she decided she wanted more, and I have been divorced about 2 1/2 years, with her convincing herself, that I was somehow abusive and so that she could take $150,000 from the sale of the house, all the furniture in the house, etc. She said that if I did not give it to her, that she would allege thatthat I abuse my daughter.

No one taught me that women want us to have boundaries and stand up to them when they're testing us and be completely ready to lose them to protect our boundaries.

I like this real talk.. I'm a new Christian and find it so hard to date in the church...its nearly impossible as a guy. Two years into my new church community, I have been looking for advice from the older men who've already been through a lot of experiences in life. Almost all of the men have been divorced. It's not very reassuring as a young man that couples in the Church are getting divorced like there's no tomorrow. In terms of the females, I don't even think they are capable of accepting a man to lead them in life. They are uber career driven here in Vancouver, BC. and they are looking for the top guys who have money only....at least the older 35+ women. The younger women are actually super chill and its refreshing to see them loving life while serving god. The issue is I'm 36 and I'm a little concerned what the church might think if they find out I'm asking out a 23/25 year old. Honestly I don't see anything wrong with it but for sure I know the church would get all weird about it. Another thing I noticed is people are so traumatized in the church that the women have the hearts guarded so much that they wont let a guy in. I'm sure if I was a handsome loaded stud they would let their guard down but I'm not. I think social media and feminism has damaged a lot of the church women as they are only career driven from what I see.

Lessons I have learned the hard way; whatever you give to a woman will never be correct, appreciated, the 'right kind / type / brand / color' - it will never be 'enough' whatever you give to a woman in money, stability, bills, comfort, residence, security - will NEVER be returned and there is no equity in doing it. your level of effort will now be used as the basis for next expectations for when she monkey branches out ~ and they will jump on whim and emotion. IF you give a woman respect, trust, loyalty, commitment, consistency, security, stability - she / they will shiate on you on the REG - lie, cheat, game, manipulate to get another behind your back that is the BAD BOY that gives her none of that.

Born in 68 with an older Brother and sister. Always got my brothers old clothes. My sister never worked until she divorced her husband in her mid thirties, and struggled for the first few years with 3 kids. I helped out when I could as I worked shifts and had time despite having a child of my own, but I was good at managing my time. My brother on the other hand never helped anyone but himself. On the subject of kids, I had 2 girls with my ex-wife and was always told to go easy on them when I would try to correct their behaviour. My ex basically let them do whatever they wanted when I was at work. After 20 years I'd had enough and left. My eldest daughter finally grew up when she went away to Uni and had to live with other girls who were worse than she was. That was her wake up call. On the 3-5 year thing, all my kids are 5 years apart. Back in 2009 my then wife brought up the subject of having another child. I said no as we were already struggling with the cost of the 2 we already had(day care was expensive and we were paying for 2 cars and a mortgage). Don't think she ever forgave me for that.

Got custody of my daughter at 4 yo and raised her alone, made sure she educated herself with my help and encouragement and luckily her abusive mother was a no show for most of her life. Two divorces including the referenced abuser later I've FINALLY learned men are FAR better off staying single. And no, there are no upsides for men in marriage, only regret. As far as "legacy" or children in general go its men at the mercy of women as they are given children in the unfamily courts and vilified on TV and in the movies almost 100% of the time. And no, we're (at least this writer) aren't afraid of women or fear them or are intimidated by them or anything else. Too many guys raised in women centric homes w/o a father are taught men are somehow evil or bad. The most recent meme about a woman lost in the woods meeting a bear or a man opting to choose the bear is beyond silly. The assumption any man would be worse than a feral animal in the woods w/o any cause is sad.

As a panentheist, I liked your comments about Nature and see that a fair few women are becoming disgruntled and social media is exposing that. Being the silent reflective type that gets many things done, drama and complaining can have no place in my life. A VG video.

11:06 I remember learning about U.S. history & I remember my teacher outlining then how specific the Declaration of Independence is about people's right to life, liberty & "pursuit of happiness." Guys learn this one way or another but many women just don't take seriously the idea that life doesn't owe anyone jack.

[@Anthony-sl9eu]

I've watched a few of your videos and enjoyed everyone !!

[@divinityofblackness6330]

I was never told that I could have it all. I was never told I deserve . I was taught that anything we get is what we earned. I'll say that my parents DID tell me I was unique...but I needed to apply it and use it. If I did not then it meant nothing. There was certain intrinsic things about me that qualified me for basic things on a count of being human (like basic human decency)...but for the most part I was taught to work.

I'm a boomer parent of boomer parents. I don't remember ever hearing my dad or mom telling my sisters they were special or that they could "have it all". We didn't have a lot of money growing up so my parents were pragmatists. My parents were both born at the beginning of the boomer generation right after WW2. I was born in late '62 so I'm on the tail end of the boomers. All my sibs are Gen X. I have a son & I taught him to work & earn his way through life just as my father taught me. I never had a daughter so I'm left wondering that if I had a daughter would I have been guilty of telling her she was special or of building up her ego to an unhealthful level? Of course it's all speculation but I don't think I would have. My dad worked me and my brothers pretty hard when we were growing up. As a result I have a good work ethic and I'm a pragmatist. I think instead I would have told her I loved her very much. That I would always be someone she could depend on & turn to. But I don't think I would have ever told her she were special or a princess because that's just not realistic & in the long run I don't think it does a child much good. From a parent's perspective and for the sake of the well being of the child I think it's much more valuable that a father be thought of as a source of strength and protection than a source of complements. I like your channel.

[@wyleecoyotee4252]

I was born in 62 as well! I saw my mothers and grandmother's horrible life and decided that I didn't have to live like that. Got a good education and well paying job. As a woman thankful for feminism for providing me that choice.

I think your right about the identity crisis. My ex wife was a little off on the years because of special needs kids but all the things pretty much lined up. She was brought up with a single mom that worked nights and she had three younger sisters. So she was being a mom to her sisters at a super young age without any instruction. Anyways, that explains alot in my minds eye, thank you.

I remember in the late 90s & 00s parents were calling their daughters “princesses” .. I thought it was narcissistic… “princesses” don’t have to work, given everything they want, entitled, narcissistic.. imagine the outrage if parents called their sons “princes”

[@bertmunoz7100]

Thank you for this. After a while one starts wondering; are they all crazy? And no, I don't think that all fathers told their daughters "you deserve", even before baby boomers. The fist woman that earned a medical degree was Elizabeth Blackwell in the late 1800's. Bessie Coleman first black women to earn an international pilot license back in the 1920's and there is many more that never needed permission to do or be who they wanted to be. Not all women were housewives or homemakers. I like your explanation on why they have to change every 4-5 years. Today's women seem to think that if men understood their "struggle" they would be happy. But what man wants to understand why they spend their lives in uncomfortable shoes and why their purses have to be worth more then the stuff they carry in them?

REMINDER: It is not a man's job to be his wife's entertainment director. Happiness comes only from within, and for a woman to be happy, she has to self-generate that happiness.

[@thedynamicsolo4232]

I've chased women, had them throw themselves on me, had a marriage that ended with a cheating wife, dated two women I didn't know were on behavioral meds, one that wouldn't take my solid advice and after 40 years of the tiring, money wasting, time wasting adventure, the apostle Paul was right. Its better to be single. I feel sorry for the genuine women who are out there looking for a good men. Most of us have walked away. The day is coming when we pull off the effort to sustain this society. That rug being pulled is going to be unfair to innocent children and women, but we have allowed and encouraged sin by our government and our votes and thinking. We need God so badly as our highest authority and we keep choosing to destroy ourselves. Men, get right with God and maybe, just maybe we can restore our godly country and our constitution.

[@johnkauppi7078]

My experience with women tells me that their natural state is to be unhappy, unsatisfied and wanting. They have brief moments of happiness when something exciting or good happens, then back to being miserable. Some men, like my father, spent their lives trying to make a woman like my mother happy, without great success. I've been involved with women where I constantly have to do and do and do to keep them satisfied. Totally exhausting. Men are different. Our natural level of happiness is much higher. We can be happy being alone and doing simple things.

[@maxwillson]

I've been doing CrossFit for 10 years and I'd consider myself one of the weaker males. I'm genetically shorter and less muscular. I get the most hate from women because a lot of the competitive women are right on the cusp of my fitness level but they never achieve it. It pisses them off. Men are just genetically stronger than women, even the weaker men like myself. It always makes me laugh. Even the women where I think - "Oh, this is the one, this is the woman that's going to defeat me." Nope, I end up winning. I see all of those "Trans-women" competing and I totally get it, those men are having a field trip, they know they're going to win.

[@lincolnadams83]

It's pretty simple, but we've all mucked it up pretty badly..."Husbands love your wives as Christ loved the church...presenting her spotless, holy and blameless...radiant.." Basically, sacrifice for her in the way that Christ did for us- dying to our self interests, speaking truth in love, providing emotionally, spiritually and physically... "Wives...likewise...respect your husbands..." See Proverbs 31 on how that looks... See Proverbs 21:9 on how that looks when a women is not in her Proverbs 31 self... However, this all goes back to Genesis and the problem we are living out... Adam did NOT look out for Eve. To be clear, Adam knew what Eve was up to. But he was wishy-washy about even stopping her- or he would have done so. His falter showed his lack of self-sacrifice ( he wanted to taste the fruit, too). This showed his lack of leadership and courage....and Eve seeing the lack of direction, took things into her own hands. Adam following her lead (because he abdicated it) sinned a second time by eating the fruit. His first sin was not smacking the fruit out of her hand and leading her away... He then compounded the problem further by running away, hiding and blaming God for the woman " he was given". Safe to say Eve lost ALL respect for Adam in that moment. And thus enmity was placed between Man and Woman. We have been living in the push pull dynamic of sacrificial love through integrity and leadership vs unrequited leadership/love resulting in disrespect and assertion of leadership ever since...This is the true battle of the sexes. I wish I had the wisdom and courage to live this truth out when I was married. I might still be married to the wife of my youth. 😕

[@persnipoles]

I like that you picked up on "deserve." I posed this elsewhere: Consider: X: 'i want what i deserve.' Y: 'no. No you don't.' Or even: 'you'd better hope you don’t get what you deserve.' Plug any two people in for x & y and ask if y is so wrong, unreasonable? ‐---- I did keep hearing 'deserve' from a few female friends years ago & couldn't help but hear it as therapy culture psycbabble. One of them complained about lack of attention frim her grown children asking 'do i deserve that?' I said attention is available or it isn’t. There is no deserve. You can attract or repel it, but trying that's just gambling for it. Do it anyway.

[@primeascendant797]

I dont think your take is even that controversial: youre really just describing a division of labor that characterizes 98% of human history up until very recently. And the first jobs outside the home women took part in were helper or service jobs. I'm a nurse (male) at a hospital, so I have about as close to a front row seat to female nature as one can get, and they still attempt to hide the worst parts from straight men...most of the time. Anyway, most women seem to love helping, and I have to say, watching a woman in that role being caring and loving, it's really awe inspiring and emotionally moving. Angelic, really. Especially because that traditional role is hidden so much now. I think men can be great carers too, but it's just different. My patients look to me more as a source of strength than consolation, though there's always overlap.

I don't try to make my bride of 31 yrs happy. That's her business, and she tells me so in a general way time to time. I strive to make her life comfortable. I strive to support her when life events become overwhelming and she is incapacitated. I strive to arrange our affairs so she can excel at what she's best at. Because she's exceptionally grateful, it works. This boomer NEVER said any such things to his daughters. But her grma did until she passed when daughter was 8. Damage done. I didn't have a chance against that maternal influence. Top of the list--look to see if gratitude and industry are present in a woman's maternal ancestral tree, men. If there's any hint of indulgence there, walk away. But see to it you are that way yourself.

[@USViper]

My Boomer dad is the best dad I could have chosen. However, my younger sister is spoiled beyond belief. She can't hold jobs and he bails her out. I served 20 years in the military, earned my bachelor degree in Aeronautics, and flipped homes from 2000-2008. While I served on active duty... 1992-2012. I am financially free now, and he doesn't see his daughter always taking the easy way thru life. Oh well, I live my life, and others live theirs.

[@vryc]

I am older than my brother with our sister in between us in age. I got married in my twenties; still with the same woman. Phenomenal woman. Honest, especially with herself and how she insists on living in actual reality. However, the stark differences in my brother's wife (he got married in his 30s and she's a year older than him) and my wife is dramatic. They had been together for maybe 5-7 years before 2017 hit and she went from being this (apparently) reasonable person to getting divorced in less than 24 months. This madness never touched my wife; she strongly distrusts raw/authentic female nature as it has this "emotional felt dogpile" effect (her words) when it combines with other females and quickly goes insane and is told it is "truth" and the "right and honest way of the female perspective" (her words again). There's something about women that were born between 1985-2005 (maybe later); there's a "madness", and a complete abandonment of self-reflection and perspective, stepping outside of their own bubbles and their own "felt" reality, as if it is an evil or some sort of pernicious poison to do so. My wife thinks it's two things: 1) education. 2) parenting. Boomer parents completely changed the game when it came to their daughters and I have no idea how to gain some of the social, political and economic grounds women justly deserved, without realigning with the most necessary parts of being a human: honest engagement with reality. And no, a healthy, honest, true & lovingly respectful hetero relationship (and any other kind of relationship, really) is not "hard work". Sure, there's conversation, and misunderstanding. But problems arise from one's own burnt and tortured psychologies. Work on yourself. Be truthful and demand truth in kind. If you have that, the mutual respect, the mutual attraction and deep attention that naturally comes from that place does happen. If you don't, you've got to play mind-games to keep the chairs spinning, to keep up with the (small??) lies and willfully activate a constant state of misunderstanding to stoke the fires of drama and problems. These things only poison a relationship over time and adults don't act this way. Not ever. This is how children act.

[@DavidFrost9992]

"...She didn't have to fight or sweat or bleed for that ending." This is a pervasive myth. Scaled waaaaaaay back, my wife gets annoyed when the plan she builds up in her head isn't how things go. Scale it all the way back up to arguably the biggest commitment in a person's life, and no wonder there is cognitive dissonance! Thanks to your mother for making you realistic! Single moms tell sons to treat the girls like a Disney princess, though. On your observation about roles: I had a talk with my eldest son this morning, asking him if he wanted to be an adult or a child, so I could treat him appropriately. He asked me for the difference. I explained that a child has my provision and protection in exchange for obedience - he gets up when I ask him to instead of laying in bed all morning and coming downstairs 5 minutes before we leave, and he keeps his room clean, and I make sure he has a breakfast even if he is running late and I look after making sure he gets what he needs together. An adult living in my home means he lives and dies by his own decisions, and if that means he goes to school without breakfast or misses the carpool to school, he suffers the consequences. I was okay with either, I just wanted to know which relationship he wants. He opted to be a child (he's 12, so that's still okay!). My wife later forgot something in the house, and I ran back in to get it for her. When he looked quizzically at me because she is an adult, I looked him in the eye and said, "if a choice needs to be made, I make it and she respects and abides by the choice. So she gets my protection and provision. Same idea, different sort of relationship." "... other people are responsible for her happiness..." It's single moms, too. They have unmet wants and needs, and decide to tell their daughters that they deserve better. Men are narcissists because they dared say no. George Carlin's look on life is actually very male. It's not deep. It's repetition of the same pattern, punctuated by the crazy events. Hypergamy meant protection for kids and themselves by choosing the best suitor. Now that women can provide for themselves, they want the lifestyle. This is why monkey-branching came about. This is why 80% of women on dating apps are looking for the top 20% of men, and holding the line there. "Pick a good man and join his team." That is dangerous to them because women have refused to trust men for a century now. Men are realizing, thanks to what we see on social media, that there are women that are out there that are as evil as the worst among men, and we make the same mistake women did: all women are under the same suspicion as the worst women. Men won't marry women because of the risks, and women won't trust men to be husbands, so they try to take the reins. "actually, the seahorses..." 🤣 They are nature's *exception*. The rule is women.

[@warrenbeane6988]

I agree totally that you give a more complete picture of why some females lack accountability. I have a seven year old little girl, and my natural inclination is to protect her from everything, and make her feel special, because she is so special to me. I haven't gone overboard to the point where she is past the point of change, mainly because my older daughter told me that I spoiled her too much, and to not do this to my little girl. but hearing what you have to say makes me realize how I need to guide her in the future. So you do make a difference. Incidentally, I treated my exwife very very special as well. Could not have been a better husband, in terms of listening, fostering her growth, and wanting her to feel special. The result was, she decided she wanted more, and I have been divorced about 2 1/2 years, with her convincing herself, that I was somehow abusive and so that she could take $150,000 from the sale of the house, all the furniture in the house, etc. She said that if I did not give it to her, that she would allege that I abuse my daughter. She did agree to 50-50 custody so even though I'm older and gave away all my retirement, I still get to see my little girl, who absolutely adores me

[@zebageba]

I told my sons that women will derail their goals and not to put women first. When they get older I'll tell them not to get married or live with a woman. It's sad that I have to warn them about this.
