What a Message! "To Be A Man" Dax| MEGA REMIX (reaction)

[@brileygabriel4949]

Ive probaly listened to this song over 100 times, and I cry everytime...

[@speed5914]

My mrs made fun of me for crying to my mum on the phone talking about our relationship problems that had been ongoing for years because I felt I was financially exhausted expecting happiness but got no appreciation in return and I exploded in tears trying to explain to my mrs that it was the first time in my adult life that I had talked to anyone about how I felt because I was a man and was supposed to hold that shit down. I said "you talk to your mum, friends, siblings all the time and I havent said a word to noone so thats why I was in tears because I felt like a huge weight was lifted from my shoulders and someone out there actually cared". Then I ran to the couch and sobbed. My son ran to me wept and gave me a big hug. This song actually helped me prep my son for when he gets older.

Be encouraged 🙏

Nothing better than the POV of a WISE, GODLY woman. Nothing on earth matches the wisdom of a GOD FEARING WOMAN!

Am just happy to see the music is changing to bring people together thank you dax

[@DavidFrost9992]

I'm nothing special. I am the second child of 8 kids to a single mother among 6 fathers. My mother is also the eldest of a single mother. Two generations of women telling their daughters to expect nothing less than everything from a man, but not how to operate beside a man. Two generations of women telling men all that they must provide without telling them what love and respect from a woman actually looks like. There are some really bad stats that are far more likely in single-mother households than in two-parent and single-father households. Stats that have affected my life. Men are necessary in spite of what the god of this world has been telling everyone. It took many long nights talking to the Father and trusting him to teach me to walk on my own, how to care for the woman He placed beside me, and how to be for the two sons He blessed me with. I recently talked with someone who pointed me back to Genesis (because I got scripture wrong and He knew I needed to look at it again), where the Fall was placed on the head of men, not women. The reason why was not what I thought it was (God arbitrarily putting Adam in responsibility and Adam falling down on the job), but the fact that God told Adam before He created Eve not to touch the fruit. Adam told Eve. Eve listened to the serpent instead of her husband, and then Adam listened to Eve instead of God. Men need to absolutely start taking God far more seriously than they do everything else. When a man is in God, then God is in him. And that makes him the leader she is looking for: just, fair, gracious, kind, loving. Everything I have heard every woman say she wants is what a man who is in God becomes, through His work. Thank you for your video.

[@sgtkruger]

Your take on this song is the most correct take on all of the videos on this song as I’ve seen. Thank you so much, you’re a rare one. God bless you.

[@BenBeckerMusic]

Hi there!! I love this so much. I'm the second singer in this video, and you blessed me so much with your reaction throughout this video. I just dropped a music video called Dear YHWH and I'd love your honest reaction. Either way, God bless you :)

[@richardrhodes2367]

Ben, I am happy to learn your name. Your voice is a blessing to all of those listening and the Feelings that reach our Hearts. God Bless you. I have listened to the words (song) and hits me every time. I'm 65 now. I grew up in love with the idea of marriage and having children. But I didn't know How. God Bless You.

[@kyleb5169]

Thank you for your reaction. One of the best I've heard yet. Hearing a woman acknowledge a man's feelings makes us feel good. We just want to know we are valued and appreciated for our efforts. Thank you for your reaction and God bless.

[@dressdenblack]

In the original Dax says "unconditional love is only for women, children and dogs." and he's right. Men are only loved and appreciated for what they can provide.

[@switchurnotions]

It's conditional for women also. Ww all have expectations of each other. Only God's love is unconditional

[@Farinhir]

@@switchurnotions Once most real (masculine Christian) men choose a mate the love for our spouse is unconditional. There is a reason most divorces are instigated by women in the United States. Cheating on the part of the men is not the reason. It is usually because the woman finds someone who can provide more than the man she married. Godly men love our women, children, and dogs without condition (unless the dog attacks our children). Men, on the other hand, get left by "godly" women as often as secular relationships in today's society. The church has fallen so much.

[@DystOptimist]

"Only women, children and dogs are loved unconditionally. A man is only loved under the condition that he provides." is the complete quote. Chris Rock adapted an older quote.

Good men will happily do this for good women… we’re great together!❤️ much love sister❤️🙏🏻👊🏻

[@joesmith5097]

Thank u mama! ...it's amazing to see the generational difference in reaction to this! I pray for a woman like you! We feel your love and support! Yes we are hurting...who is Willing to talk about it? Thank you!

[@christopherhooten4601]

Dont forget Jesus wept and so can you is so powerful

[@lastdayscalm]

What a beautiful song that touches the heart. Thanks GOD BLESS....

[@glyneschete2803]

The last man gets me every time he's letting his emotions out in the video. My guy is broken 😞

[@BrittanyHolcomb1]

One of the first questions women will ask one another about a man they're interested in is "what does he do?"

[@DavidFrost9992]

And men ask their friends "What's she like?" Yeah, fairly, some guys talk appearance, but there is a subtext of how kind she is. How good. And those not asking appearance only want to know this.

[@darylmeese9621]

It's not often when a man thinks he'd be better off dead that's the most dangerous. It's when a man thinks, "they'd' be better off if I were dead" that it's getting really dangerous - because they're who we've killed ourselves for this whole time anyway - so what's one more sacrifice?

[@brileygabriel4949]

Man there were times when I actually felt like my family would be better off if I was dead. I actually thought it out. I have life insurance..if I were gone, they would be set... it was tempting..

[@LoveBites1279]

I’m glad you reacted to this song. I think more women need to see this and listen to the issues and listen to the women who are in the song that are talking about how they didn’t realize what the men were going through. We ALL need to listen to each other.

[@begnaud23]

Yes and like actually listen

[@dianeritthaler7792]

Great reaction. Men need supportive woman in their lives. God designed it that way. As a mother of 4 sons I know it's hard on men. My son waa attacked by his stepsons and lost his job and almost lost his life. He's been in and out of the hospital since March 2nd

[@switchurnotions]

Oh my. I truly wish your son the best.

While for me personally there likely is no god, I appreciate your perspectives. Thank you very much for sharing.

[@crazywickedcustoms7272]

Yes, and yes

[@nzstump0152]

every single man has been destroyed by a woman for showing emotions or vulnerability to them, it happens when we are kids, it gets worse as we age, its the way of the world, we are replaceable and we are taught that early on

[@sabcam2000]

Every single woman in every culture, in every period, has been broken and humiliated by a man or several men.

[@FlameOC]

Every human deserve to be treated like a human Woman or man, we deserve the same treatment

[@lazyhanger6027]

I really appreciate your reaction, and your including scripture

[@flacoelprofe]

It could be my view point. I think it was a message more to the kids. Opening up and letting them know father’s go through things too

[@flacoelprofe]

That’s why I sent it to my kids

[@Darkforces817]

I liked your reactions. They were interesting. Tis really is a great song.

[@jeremyandrews3567]

I’m loving it now

[@AnotherFacelessDigitalNoOne]

There is a meme i really feel.. quite old now. A man with arrows in his back reaching down to pull his partner up. She has a fire beneath her. Shes struggling too... and the words from both are something like "why can't they help me"... but they dont see each others struggles. On their own immediate pain

[@Farinhir]

I don't think the last man said he would "chill with his demons". I think it was that he would rather be alone on the weekends to "deal with the demons". He is fighting them. It doesn't help to have to fix other people's issues to deal with his own demons. But that is what is expected of us men. We are expected to fix the problems of others before we selfcare. It is a losing battle.

[@brileygabriel4949]

No... He actually said, "Chillin with my demons"...and he was speaking for a lot of us that can't feel at home with anything other than our demons.. (Alcohol, drugs...porn..) whatever it might be.. because the demons don't judge..You owe the demons nothing, or so you think, until they take your very life... and I imagine a lot of men are ready to give even THAT up at that point.. :-(

[@Farinhir]

@@brileygabriel4949 Yeah. I caught it on a different listen. And I don't think he is necessarily meaning those types of demons, but rather the ones in our heads that tend to try to break us. Alcohol, drugs, porn, and the rest are vices that people use to cope with their demons. The demons are those voices in our heads that try convincing us we are worthless or better off dead.

[@benz8141]

​@@brileygabriel4949"because the demons don't judge" that's a bar and spot on!

[@brileygabriel4949]

​@@FarinhirThese "vices" ARE our demons... That is how our demons trap us, for many of us.
