When I worked as a teacher I realized very quickly that boys and girls are motivated very differently. The boys needed a challenge to rise to. The best way to turn around a misbehaving boy is to give him a meaningful task. And then appreciate his efforts. The girls on the other hand want to be praised and admired. Most of them behave already, so little prizes and kind words are enough to keep them feeling great. The girls naturally police each other and are more cooperation oriented. It’s tricky running both strategies in the same classroom. but if you can pull it off it’s wonderful.

When a human being is treated as if they were nothing by someone important to them, particularly in childhood, they will feel as though they are nothing. Talk to women who had been neglected in childhood and really listen to them. This experience is not unique to men, we all share it.

Indeed, the experience is common to men and women. Yet when a woman is being treated as though she is nothing, she fundamentally doesn't understand why. She is puzzled, says the Rabbi. When a man is treated this way, he unconsciously understands why. That's the difference between them. But in both cases, neglect and disdain cause immense hurt and grief.

Bryan, don't bank on her continuing like that. You need to develop your own identity and value apart from simply needing to feel useful for HER. YOU are worthy of having outside hobbies, developing a male friend circle, hitting the gym for YOU, and having expectations of her. You sound like your wife is a celebrity or something and you're an unworthy fan. That's a huge biological turnoff to women eventually because they need to feel that their man is a catch and a leader. They must respect you (by seeing you as a catch) to really love you deeply. It's non negotiable, and divorce courts are full of guys who forgot this.

Agree, same. We are all daughters of men, built 50% by male genes, as men are built 50% by female genes; we have very much a way to understand each other. It is useful to look at it as masculine or feminine, not necessarily male and female; i know males who have been emotionally abused by their mother who have very much the deep fear of being enmeshed by a woman as he describes is a female thing. Perhaps it is more appliccable to men in his culture, where the roles are divided very clearly, yet top suicide rate in the west is of males, and this is worth noting. Yet i know a female who committed suicide when the feeling of being nothing became too real. It is deeply human. Men bear most heavy responsibility, therefore it is most prevalent by them, I believe

I suffered a lot in childhood and i definitely felt at "zero" through most of it. My experiences in school and at home - the neglect, alienation, humiliation (the humiliation was entirely from adult women aka school teachers) left me feeling completely worthless, completely. I did not relate to other girls at all. When it comes to feelings ...It wasnt the women around me who spoke honestly and sincerely about their feelings - oh they talked A LOT, but it was all glib, insincere talk. I learned to understand, not be ashamed of, and talk about my emotions from an unlikely place. It was the year 2000 (i was 10) when i discovered rock music (the bands i resonated with were all male bands) and it was men screaming about their emotions and i felt soooo validated for the first time in my life. Mind you, at the time i didnt have the analytical abilities to note and make something out of this fact , i honestly didnt really consciously note "oh hey all these bands im listening to are male", i just thought of them as awesome HUMANS who were validating my emotions and i felt empowered. What im saying is two-fold -- its incorrect to think as society thinks that women are more emotional...some of the greatest love songs and poetry were written by men; and to the Rabbi's point that women dont feel like zero, i can assure you some of us have felt that way.

I knew we couldn't make to the end of a video about men without bringing up feminism. But after all - I think that's the dirty truth that explains why feminism is so hated by men (and some women as well). It reveals the truth of men's deepest fears -that women don't really need them, and a lot of that "need" was manufactured by social oppression in order for men to avoid dealing with this primal fear. And a lot of other women are also in the business of protecting men from this fear, which is part of the reason why so many women also reject feminism. They prioritize protecting the feelings of the men in their lives over the rights of women and girls globally. I'm not trying to be mean to men by saying any of this - but I do believe that it's true. Nothing else but the most primal of all fears could explain the vitriol that gets directed at feminism.
@languageliterature9413 Жыл бұрын
Interesting view, but I don't agree. Feminism is actually a huge problem and it's quite evil. The thing is, most feminists actually do need men, they are the loudest saying a man has to have xyz or be xyz in order to be with them. Those are needs. The issue with feminists is that they believe that they are the same as men, when they're not. Even with all the I don't need a man energy, if there's a physically challenging act like heavy lifting or the sight of danger, the feminist will still expect her father, brother or uncle to lift, repair or protect her. The feminists want to be equal with men, but are upset when men beat them at sports lol. It's crazy! All in all women need men. We always have, and being feminist doesn't change that.

This is true, men's greatest fear is becoming irrelevant to their wife and children. One of the greatest drivers of divorce is when the man looses his career status. Loose your job and loose your wife.

I wish my daughter in law would listen to this. She has made my son feel like nothing for 30 years and he has become nothing. From an intelligent, hard working man to a morbidly obese, unhealthy alcoholic who has had many orthopaedic surgeries because of work related injuries. They will not divorce because they are Jewish and have 2 wonderful children in college. It breaks my heart. And yet, he still tries....

That is why both men and women should strive to get away from their ego based, society - conditioned roles. Both genders are divine beings on a deeper level, both come from ultimate source. The one who read this, may you realize and feel that you are fulness of creation,no matter woman or man❤

This is only viable for women, men need to become or they won't reproduce. It's easy for a women to say such things when she doesnt even know this existential pressure... For women simply "being" is usually enough, that's why women always teach these "you are good how you are" messages. Problem is when young men listen and start to think this applies to them aswell, they will have big troubles in life for sure.

Most people , like, may be, 99%, find comfort in their roles. Very few find limitations of gender roles unsatisfactory and try to change system. On social level, its quite difficult for society to develop without men who fight and serve in military and mothers of big families. Society collapses when there is not enough people anymore to take this roles willingly and with high culture.

I wonder maybe this is why many men are serial killers, users and abusers, sex addicts, drug addicts etc; When you feel like you're nothing, it's like being in a bottomless pit, nothing but low vibrational energy and that's when darkness starts to seep in, and people like this tend to do things to fill that void. Anyone that's going through this, I wish you nothing but healing.

Great point. For them to do that they are attached to their sense of who they are. Wobbly at times but who isn't? Important thing is growing in competence, camaraderie and self knowledge (Jordan Peterson would advocate these) be it in sports, carpentry or any group effort. Now this male bonding may be where women feel "unwelcomed" or clueless but hey we all learn from each other. Lifelong learning is there for a reason. And Respect too.

You can't undo a creative condition. You are right, you can't. However, God did not create them with fear. He created them both in Love. They felt no fear until they ate of the tree... That awakened knowledge/awareness without Wisdom/understanding. Knowledge without understanding is what causes fear in anyone's heart Male or Female. You "know" something is in the dark woods you are walking next to. You "know" it is following along side you. But there is no understanding because you don't "know" what "it" is. Your mind is screaming, "Bear! Mountain Lion!GAAAAH!!!" Then you get to a steet light and out comes a stray dog. 🤷♀️ And immediately you understand from previously gained Wisdom that this dog is seeking your help, not to make a meal out of you. The whole time you can't "see" the whole picture your imagination is attempting to fill in the blanks... Fear is very real, and triggers certain physical responses such as an adrenaline rush to flee if necessary. It's not just our emotions that are affected by the fealing of fear, its our whole body system... Which is wired with physical, emotional, and spiritual aspects that all need to be in balance to work properly. To function as we were created to function. I understand that you believe the fear of annihilation is exclusive to men, but it's not. I have experienced things in my life that I can no longer even put into words, and spent a good majority of my early years living in a constant state of fear. The emotions are driven by feelings. So if someone feels afraid, their emotional reaction will be triggered based from the bank of either Wisdom or hurt. It truly feels to me like each one of us have a well of both inside of us. And we can draw from either one with any circumstance we face. If we draw from our hurt, our emotional and physical reaction will be a reaction of hurt. But if we draw from our Wisdom, it will direct a response of understanding. Leading to what you said... The thing that you hate, don't do to others. It hurts my fealings when people talk over me, as in literally won't even let me finish a sentence. And this has been a consistent circumstance in my life for years now. So if I draw from my well of hurt, as I have done in the past, I am going to be angry, frustrated, and eventually just cut them off completely. That's not healthy for anyone. But if I draw from the well of Wisdom I have learned through my experiences I will instead feel compassion towards the one talking over me because we all want to be heard. I will not talk over them. I will let them be heard, and hope that someday they will at least feel heard by me. As a matter of fact I pretty much stopped talking almost completely several years ago and no one even noticed. I am pretty sure despite the internet, or perhaps even because of the internet... 🤔 That the majority of people do not feel heard. I want to be heard too. But no one can hear anything when everyone's talking... Because you can't talk and listen at the same time. These are emotional issues that we are dealing with. Not spiritual. The spiritual and physical are just out of balance because the emotions are out of balance. Therefore there is "dysfunction" that will not go away until the emotions are brought back into balance with the physical and spiritual. 🤷♀️

Think of it this way, how does G-d feel when he does not get praised by his creation. How does a husband feel when not praised by his wife. Humanity came from G-d, and Woman from man. G-d exalts the humble, so a man exalts his “virtuous wife.” So praise him to keep his morals alive husbands are not perfect like our Lord.

You just described how men needed women, not the other way around. Did you not notice that you proved your own self wrong? You started off saying we need men and went on to describe how men need women. No, Women do not 'need" anyone. Society was manufactured to make us need them, but once we weren't oppressed in that way, things changed. It hasn't done me any good to need a man or not need him, in the end I always had to rely on myself. So the best thing a woman can do is not need a man from the start. She may want one, but it's not healthy to need anyone.

Bro Manis I have a question: Is love solely based on conditioning an individual? And can we love someone naturally without the guidelines? Is love a feeling from the heart? Or is it all in your head? Dictating who to love and who not to based on socially constructed lifestyles and their ideas often doesn't work. It must not be working for Jews either or you wouldn't be discussing the matter. Lets see it for what it really is, marriage is a business which is why a marriage license is required to be legal within the system that created the concept in the feudal medieval ages based around the concept of servitude, basically producing workers for the system as indentured servants, and although the concept has seen some changes the overall premise of it, the original premise remains intact. When you sell the concept of marriage and having a family is it only because there is a dependency on the part of the social construct and it's lifestyles to whereas they need numbers in order for them to survive? I don't see that this concept is based on genuine heart felt unconditional love but rather the love you speak of is a manufactured product tied to a subjective lifestyle that tells it's followers what to do and how to live, manipulating them into producing human livestock used to keep this predetermined society alive. We are all being used in a negative way.

@@MaryDunford Thanx for asking. I'm presenting the argument of nature vs nurture. Is the concept of marriage natural based on nature or is it based on nurturing and conditioning as part of a social construct? Monogamy is actually natural and can be found in nature with regards to mammals, birds termites, fish etc and the love they share isn't taught to them it in fact comes naturally to them without the conditioning within the confines of a social construct. The Twin Flame concept is quite interesting in that like Plato's Symposium it speaks on one soul that was both male and female being split in half and separated from itself looking to rejoin as one once again. That is the origins of the Adam and Eve story as well as the Christian concept of the 144.000

I find this strange. The dynamics are different, it doesnt boil down to the same thing because we all have a different mental framework through which we view and interpret the world. My ex grew up with a pretty health relationship with his mom. His dad on the other hand was very cold toward him, and he felt rejected by him. But his dad also had a very difficult childhood where he was somewhat abandoned by his parents. Now, my ex had a history of promiscuity and i didnt know. We dated for 4 years and then got married. Closed to two years into our marriage, he started cheating. He was a university grad with a great job and i was pursuing my degree in the health sciences. I did all i could have to be the good wife, i even forgave him but he eventually left with a woman who was half his age and had nothing to contribute to his life, no job, no level of education, a gold digger and full time hooker. And they didnt last long but he continued with pursuing those type of women until he ended up having a kid with another woman of same caliber like the previous. After we broke up, He went through several women who had no sort of firm standing in life. I fail to see what was his problem.

I desperately want to die. I'm in hell with no escape. 44 years of suffering with only intermittent fleeting windows of relief. I beg to die. HE REPLACED ME. HE SHATTERED MY HEART. I loved him. He raped my soul: brutally viciously violently maliciously. Every night: nightmares. Every day: panic attacks. Every morning I wake up in despair, desperately praying to die. I can no longer bear the pain. I could die from the pain of missing my best friend. He betrayed and abandoned me, discarded me like garbage. I'm so fucking traumatized and terrorized and terrified. God, as I walk through this hell and heartache and grief, I pray you guide me and direct me and hold me and love me and heal me... AFFIRMATIVE PRAYER: I'm in love. In love with a special person, in love with myself, in love with life, in love with God, in love with all that I AM, in love with all that is. I love life. I've spent my whole life in a suicidal hell, and that's all permanently shifting NOW. I pray I stay on this trajectory of MILLIONS of miracles, forever!

I don't think feeling like nothing is strictly unique to men. Women have literally been treated like nothing for a very very long time and unfortunately women have eventually been convinced we are nothing by many religions. That's why real feminism is very important to remind us that we are extremely important. I believe that saying that only man can't be criticised is an excuse to say that women can be criticised and brought to nothing without any consequences. As an agnostic i've always felt that religions saying men were created by a higher being and then a woman from a man is just trying to lessen womens' importance by making it seem like men didn't come from women. Religion throws a role of a submissive, kind, quiet mother at women saying nothing else is good , then make it seem like in the begining it wasn't a woman who brought a man here. And then make every sort of excuse to "justify" men badly treating women. To me, from what you said, it seems like it's just about male ego and how easily it is for men to feel offended if someone points out any wrong doing or drawback and then them not being able to work through it like an adult should be able to do. Everything came out of something. Life started from microorganisms and it just blew from there. Talking like you do will make women, especially vulnerable ones, like young ones or victims of abuse think we are less than and can be treated like nothing. All based on a text written by a man. It's almost like having women passive, thinking bad of themselves and feeling like a punching bag would be very comfortable for some
