@@PerseusClassic Nah he/she's right. They're just chilling in this particular echo-chamber today. Religious based morality falls short not because the outcome is overtly ugly... But because it relies primarily on fear and shame to keep people "in line" which is where the "ugly" lies. It may not at first, but it will eventually, as they said, it inevitably devolves to zealotry, because we can't STILL our selves. So the pendulum swings. This is also why it's so easily torn asunder by a few decades of propoganda. It's weak. Fear is a shitty foundation, if one at all. Even fear of God or Hell. It attempts to condense a very nuanced entity like humanity into a ridiculously small box of mind-made dos and donts. Pressure inevitably builds and BANG. One or two influential artists come forth with songs of "liberation" or whatever. And an outward explosion ensues. And since our main issue is an inbility to STILL ourselves we can't control it and the pendulum swings as far as it can until we've got articles claiming inc**tuous relationships are somehow acceptable. And "MAPs" attempting to normalize the vile crime you and I know "it" to be. One side is overtly ugly, laden with blood and tears. The other is equally ugly, just veiled in clothing, high birth-rates and prayer. Both sides of the same coin. Both need eachother to continue surviving both use US as pawns in it's filthy little game. Realize cessation.

You know what’s empowering? My grandmother raising 4 children in a cabin out in a village in Alaska with no outside access besides a plane that only came every couple week. No running water, to electricity, and figuring out how to feed her children on a missionaries salary, back in the ‘50s when missionaries actually did something. She suffered the loss of her second child who died of a fever at 6 months old because it was breakup season and they couldn’t get a plane in. She washed and dried clothes in the middle of the winter. She shopped at second hand stores after her and Grandpa moved into town. She is the definition of a strong woman. She never complained about her life. When I say, “That must have been hard” she just shrugs and says “It’s just what you did back then.” A strong woman is my other grandma who followed her husband to Alaska with a toddler and a baby, driving through Canada in a pickup truck with a camper. She left her parents and sisters back on the farm and moved to a place where she knew no one. She stayed married for 55 years to a man that was not easy to live with. These are strong women. I look up to them and hope I can do as good as they did in their lives. I take their advice and treasure it. I value my grandmothers advice more then any of the so called “influencers” posing half naked on the internet.

"Polygamy is just another Life-Style and Prostitution is just another Job-Profession" - Spreading but objectively wrong mindsets. Simping? NORMALIZED!! Spreading! Enhanced! Seeing how Banks automate their stuff and how being a perv is getting more and more popular, its not hard to imagine where this leads to: Both facts combine and we will one day have an automated Mobile-App that delivers Woman to your house, each day the same time. Are my words too harsh? I dont think so. This is just a harsh Age.

One of the biggest questions I've always had is, why do we women need to show skin but men can roam around fully covered, and no one says anything, instead it's the norm for them to do so. That itself just says so much to me. I'm a 17 years old Muslim female, and people get weirded out by me dressing modestly, and I just don't understand, why? They tell me that I'm sexualising myself indirectly. I felt so weird, like these people will do anything to gaslight me and make me feel like I'm stupid and oppressed for dressing modestly. I always wondered, how is dressing in very revealing clothes NOT sexualising and objectifying. Instead it's seen as empowering. I just can't believe that I live in a world where dressing modestly is considered wrong. If anything, dressing modestly has done me so much good. Most people upon seeing me, respect me because they immediately think of me as a woman who is close to God, and number two, they view me as someone who's more than just a body. It does the complete opposite of whatever you just talked about in the video, yet I'm still made to feel bad about it. I also always say this: I know that seeing someone as just a body is not right in certain circumstances, but we also need to realize that we as humans usually see other people as objects. When you go out and look around, most people actually just appear as objects to you. You don't feel some very deep emotional connection to them or something unless you're close to someone, you know what I'm saying? So viewing strangers as just bodies or ‘objects’ is actually pretty much a natural thing, and what women who dress in very revealing clothes, example cardi b in wap, are doing is basically making themselves look even more like objects or just mere bodies. Then people get mad at others for viewing them that way I mean c'mon now. They're literally encouraging other people to objectify them even more, and if you can't see that I don't know what to say or what to do. Anyways, good video, I learnt quite a lot LOL!

Men find empowerment from being brave, and strong, and from sacrifice. It has nothing to do with our looks or clothing. Men follow ideals beyond themselves and their bodies. That is why superheroes and athletes are celebrated by men globally.

I feel the most confident, outgoing, happy, empowered, satisfied, etc, when I'm the most feminine, when I'm actively treating my husband like he deserves to be treated, like a King. Why does this empower me? Because when I treat him like a King, I am the wife of a King, a Queen, and he treats me as such. This is empowerment!

I would know, because i'm failing at it XD), then gets payed to showcase his/her sexiness. Some models are showcasing their incredible jawline, or incredible chest musles.

I have taught various styles of dance at a local event venue, and I have always been completely shocked at the behavior of the female attendees at the dance parties. The music tends to start with tunes from the 50s and 60s which we have taught them to actually dance to, and things usually go fairly well. However, as soon as anything from the 70s or later comes on, any attempt at actual dancing usually comes to an end and the sexual motions begin. It's a pretty quick progression from there to music of the 80s and later, where many of the lyrics are blatantly objectifying and... I mean, have you HEARD Get Low by Lil Jon? Or even the Wobble? I like getting an eye full as much as the next guy, but there is no possible way I can enjoy watching those proceedings because part is being attractive is confidence, belief in your own value, and a bit of subtle artistry.

@@ronnie5768 Because you are choosing what you want other people to concentrate on. Why do women pretend like this is such a hard concept to understand? If I were to walk around shirtless and flexing my muscles, you wouldn't be judging me based on my education. Your evaluation of me would be entirely based on whether you'd like to jump on the disco stick or not and you would also assume that if you asked I would be willing to let you do that. Men know this and as a result don't act like this yet for some reason when women do the equivalent they're surprised that people judge them.

My most depraved and depressing time was when I was drinking every weekend, hook ups, obsessing and valuing my looks over my talents and aspirations, and doing this all in the name of “I’m a free woman, I’m empowered, I do what I want when I want, I don’t need a man and I won’t be hurt by one again!” The last two are true in a sense but the mindset I had that framed and fueled those beliefs were wrong.

Watching this in 2024… For the properly informed, and as a father of two daughters, can we just kill the term “female empowerment”? In the Western sphere, women have been on an equal or even advantaged playing field (quotas, laws, etc…, DEI, etc…) for the last two decades, in addition to their traditional privileges. I prefer to teach my daughters and son equally, that working hard to earn something, accomplishing goals and taking responsibility, is SELF-empowerment. As Sydney has so eloquently given examples of, this “female empowerment “ is now just a term for women to say “ I’m not accountable for anything, I want no consequences, you’re not allowed to judge me, leave me alone”.

I got into an argument with a friend of mine who posted something on Facebook to the effect of, "Instead of calling young girls bossy, we should teach them they have leadership skills". It froze me in my tracks because of how subversive the notion is. It twists the meaning of these words and the actions of those it involves to somehow make bossiness seem like it is an admirable trait, and that's fine because "it's admirable among men". It's the "it's okay because they do it" idea, and it disgusted me to my core when I considered the number of young girls who will learn it's okay to bully others into submission, under the false assumption that that is somehow "good leadership". Needless to say I was called a sexist, misogynist pig. It was so nice to have a friend of 28 years, openly and publicly label me as something I'm not, and then proceed to dogpile me in her comments with disconnected arguments, along with their feminist friends who agree with her, thereby proving my point beyond any shadow of a doubt. I have not spoken to her since. They sat there patting each other on the back for a job well done, probably lacking the self awareness to realize what they had just done.

Same. We are separatist Christians so we homeschool and our kids do not have free reign access to internet. I’m basically raising my children as though it is the early 80s. They do not have cell phones and they also watch all the older cartoons none none of the New Age children’s shows which promote this type of garbage. The best thing we’ve done is basically gone back in time to raise our children and keep them away from other children to families who do not have similar values. Granted our children are learning to type they do know how to use a Google search etc. they are educated and they’re gonna be more than able to navigate technology. But their experience in navigating it so far has been very well controlled. I also strongly recommend teaching them traditions and values of their own culture through example and activities. So yes I am encouraging you whatever your heritage is to teach them a strong positive picture of it and how it should be. Ignore liberal leftist ideologies. Teach them some pride. If you don’t they will not have the self-confidence they need to be adults and take on the real world when that challenge does come.

[@fernwhite9158]

Take time to raise your kids. Sacrifice what you need to sacrifice to be with them and be an example for them. Read with them play with them. Do not allow your kids to be raised by strangers of questionable state of mind eight hours a day everyday. School in this form is the most bullshit thing in this world. Also work with farm animals. Thanks to my dad I started working at local farm taking care of animals when I was twelve. Animals and hard work teach you everything you need to know and you don't even have time for other things really so no stupid friends to indoctrinate you into stupid shit. Also my dad gave me lots of books when I was younger. Being surrounded by mostly conservative society helps a lot too. I'm from Poland. When I was fourteen I found people like Roger Scruton and Douglas Murray later Jordan Peterson and Thomas Sowell on my own. Wish my dad knew English so that he could listen to them too. If you set an example for your kids and introduce them to this world already with personality and beliefs there is more chance for them to go through it and walk away unscathed.

[@thomashudson3458]

There's no way to 100% shield a child from these things, but you can try. #1 Don't give anyone a smart phone if they are under 15 years old. They don't need one. If you feel they need a phone, get them one that doesn't let them download apps or one that is just for making phone calls. #2 Parent your child. Don't just pick them up from school and plop them down in front of the TV while you go about doing what you want. Letting TV parent your child is one of the biggest problems these days. Help them with homework (if that still exists) and then have them go outside to play for at least an hour. Play board games or do other activities WITH them. Instead of TV, have them read books.
