@@MRS.SammeK you said "feel pressure to provide". Are you implying the pressure to provide is imagined? Do you believe that the entire history of men being providers and women being carers is imagined, with no biological basis? If a species of bird ate only one type of berry for millenia, would it not develop a better beak to eat that type of berry? And among that species of birds, the males and females evolved differently to fill their gender roles withing their bird society. The males feathered vibrantly to attract a mate. Humans, being much more complex than birds, evolved similarly. You cannot throw out millenia of evolution, socially and physically, to fit your 50 year old narrative.

[@swamidude2214]

Greatest position of power is to be financially independent and dont give a fuck about these so called positions of power that ruin people. Happiness is worth more then the so called succes they claim to have. Now Im not saying that means having no ambition or not wanting to have a career. But with all good things in life, moderation is the key. You can climb the ladder till a certain point. I always say, time is money, but money is also time. After a certain amount working less, being able to spend your free time doing fun stuff, going out, spending time with friends becomes worth more. But to ‘buy’ that time, you need to be financially independent. Free time being poor is worthless free time. You work to live, you don’t live to work.

Dr. Peterson you have inspired me for many years ever since my sophomore year at East Carolina University when I discovered your class lectures that you had posted on KZbin. I was always that kid that never cared about class and I didn’t have any direction as far as what I wanted to do with my life which as you know is a terrible combination that only gets worse. Your original classroom lectures inspired me to love going to my classes and to love learning and hopefully one day I’ll be in the position to be able to inspire others just like you inspired me. Thank you for speaking to us young men and women and giving us truth. You don’t even know how many people that were on the verge of giving everything up completely that didn’t give up because they heard you speak. You are truly a blessing Dr. Peterson, molded and shaped in the Lords image and placed here to do His good work. I am thankful that you chose truth and I am thankful that you chose to fight the good fight. May God bless you and your family in the days to come Dr. Peterson. Sincerely Josh R.

At the very end he wrote 9x10=99. The whole class started laughing and mocking him, asking how he could make such a mistake in an elementary problem. He calmly turned and said something along the lines of "no one praised me for getting eight answers right, but here I am mocked and discredited for the one single answer I got wrong."

My mom was a stay at home mom off and on. Even if she worked she worked part time. We were raised mostly by her. My mom was not a motherly woman. She rarely hugged us and stiffened up when we hugged her. She resented taking care of us. She said we were 3 mistakes. She complained that when she was alone with us kids and not working that she was going bonkers from a lack of adult conversation. My dad was an introvert and was tired of talking when he got home from work. Part of the problem is being split into single families. In the past people lived around grandparents, aunts and uncles etc. to raise children together. So the mother could get conversation and help from family members.

In my experience, the key to successfully balancing career and raising a family is having a good, solid support system. My parents, in-laws and siblings played important roles in our kids' lives. As parents, we are not always at our best mentally, spiritually and even physically. Being able to lean on to another trusted member of the family during our low points is crucial for parent's and for the children's welfare. Fortunately, we live near our extended family so our children grew up surrounded by loving family members.

While this has a point, women working isn't wrong too.. There's almost nothing in this world completely white and black. I grew up with my mother being a homemaker and in a broken home. Guess what?

Equality of opportunity means that the best choice for a career will make it, and that men who are drawn to female dominated jobs and women who are drawn to male dominated jobs will get in fine if they are the best.

In our society it’s not enough to be a stay at home mom. You’re supposed to be more accomplished than that. I can name literally (and I mean that the way the word is intended) hundreds of women who stay at home with their young children. Up until last year I was part of a program for supporting stay at home moms. Nearly every single one of them felt some sort of guilt or shame. Guilt they weren’t contributing financially or shame that they weren’t accomplished in a career society deemed valuable. That’s part of the problem, IMO. I’ve done both, had a career and raised small children. IMO, the raising small children is much harder. A supportive spouse and a solid group of trusted friends makes all the difference for a family unit as a whole. Some of the highest rates of depression come from stay at home moms. Many times the only resources available to young stay at home moms are outreaches from Christian churches and in a world that’s increasingly less religious it can be pretty isolating.

why have a 9 to 5 job? when it's an extremely important responsibility to raise kids properly and maintain a home properly. as a woman i think thre's extreme inportance in being a mom, wife and in charge of a home. Raise exceptional kids! you will never regret it when they are grown. Keep a happy home and happy marriage. Let your husband support the family if he can.

[@hafezj1]

No, in many cases you are not done. You still get the money, you don’t get reprimanded, and you will continue to go on to more lucrative positions. I have not heard many cases where people ina. Powerful position truly get reprimanded or are “done”. More often than not it is the opposite as they have influence over others who can make them responsible for their mistakes. That is what we have taught these powerful people, they don’t have to care nor do they have to live to the same standards that they expect all others to follow, they are exempt and that is why they crave power. They don’t care about the responsibility, as it geôles them à far greater result than anything else.

Humans lost sense of purpose or we never reached that point to understand what life purpose is.... Evolution is funny thing or nature just having a joke as more advanced we are more confused we get one every existencional level ....

You can make a lot of "mistakes" and still have the position of power 😅

[@ezra7253]

Societal pressure in a tendency towards narcissism and psychopathy in men it all stems to toxic masculinity and patriarchy regardless of whether you’re saying why would you want to position of power or why aren’t women in a position of power part of it is still women are being barred from it there’s still a wage gap but the other part of it is the personality traits and disorders that men pick up being raised in our society

[@marisolhdiaz9233]

So what's his point when he says that it takes a lot of responsibility to handle "high position jobs"? Both women and men can, between the lines it makes one think he's saying it as if men are better at it? Or did I get it all wrong?

Someone please present this man to Andre tate and Tristan tate because all they seem to think women are good for is cooking and cleaning plus having multiple women at once.

Status and money make men more attractive on the dating market but men only assess women based on looks, doesn't matter if she's the CEO of a Fortune 500 company or a Starbucks barista as long as she's easy on the eyes.

[@schmoshizzle3853]

Maybe for a fuck buddy, but not as a good woman at your side. You want them to be attractive of course, but you also want them to better themselves or at least be on the WAY to doing that.

[@krystiesolfyre5340]

That’s not true when it comes to a real partnership with two mature adults. I have friends where the man and women both are very successful in their careers and it’s not even what matters to them. They support each other and love each other and are there in the good and bad. That’s real love. Maybe initially of course you want to have attraction and foster that on both sides, but that is only a very small fraction of a real relationship.

[@Catlily5]

Looks matter but some men like extra income. Some men want an educated partner to talk to. Status may get looks plus other qualities if desired.

[@charlenecook1565]

You really think people in positions of power are acting responsible?

[@casacarol2034]

Raising children is our respinsibility & power. The most sacred position in life is to have & raise children & with a good man. Yes as a man & woman in the image of God. I had a lot of educstion but all I wanted to do was stay home & care for my children. I had to work due to the slave economy which is wrong...our children suffer unless without tge parent unless you are a less caring, capable or loving then the caregivers.

[@karinteeples9715]

Amen!! Unfortunately this kind of moral living is a very small group in Society today. In fact we’re mocked for being Christians and having family values. Good thing I don’t care. Be blessed

[@goodmorningbeautifulhumans1638]

The real question is why have children and not raise them? Moms leaving the home was the start of where we now are…

[@rocioferrari3]

Why blame the mothers when the fathers are also absent? Of my class of 30 teens, I know at least 5 of them whose fathers abandoned them. Besides, mothers leaving the home was only an issue for middle and upper class people, lower class moms have always had to work

[@DoubleDownDawn]

Some would say moms staying home in the 50s, depressed from the social isolation of the suburbs and heavily medicated, and forming unhealthy enmeshed or resentful relationships with their children was the start of where we are now

[@DoubleDownDawn]

Some would say the industrial revolution was the start of where we are now. It can always go back farther

Moms at home create a far more stable child than a career mom with a daycare kid.

It’s not really power, it’s burden

[@hollysmith1347]

I wish there was more help for stay at home mothers. In my country they offer so much to working mothers. While I under there is a need. So many resources go into pressuring woman to get back into the workforce and nothing to help mothers stay home. Which would be cheaper for stay at home mothers.

[@jdhensley4523]

You can thank feminism for breaking the nuclear/traditional family system.

[@karinteeples9715]

Because they don’t Want intact families. The Government encourages fatherless hOmes and mothers working. Look at families today and that will show you all you need to know.

Not always. People have to strategize to be able to overlap the insignificant people already in that position.

[@kathyfahey5469]

Yeah, there might be "more to life"---FOR YOU. But ur kids? Daycare, clamoring for ANY scrap of attention. A nanny who barely speaks English. A sitter who puts ur kid in front of the TV or game console all day. Yes, the very same ppl who "have no time" for a dog or cat or even a goldfish, are whelping out kids. And these r just the ones who "don't need the damn $$$".

[@Jamison229]

I'm a year and a half into a Director level IT position at a small-medium size tech company, direct report to the CEO and manage my own budget. I ask myself this question often. I KNEW there was going to be A LOT of responsibility and decision making involved, and coming from a military background where i routinely made decisions involving potential loss in human life... figured i could handle it, no probs....granted i was Single w/ no kids when doing that. But now being a father, wonderful wife and family... i have an appreciation for wanting a job/career where you don't have to make many heavy decisions involving impacts to peoples lives (employment) and a companies' bottom line....would much prefer spending that mental energy on my loved ones.

[@BBountyHunter]

True. Why would anyone want to be in that position? Because of incentives! That’s why people in power earn more. Because they have responsibility for their job and quite often for the job of others. They have to set the standard and have expectations while being empathetic and not being a complete asshole. If you’re not a psychopath and are in a position of responsibility, you spend most of the waking hours thinking about people you’re responsible for. Sometimes, when it gets rough, it keeps you up at night! But the incentive is there, so you do it.

[@anadverb5063]

Depends on what you mean by “mistakes.” Some would consider massive layoffs to be a mistake. But, the shareholders celebrate it even though it means mayhem. You have to be a narcissist to want to be a CEO. Meaning, you care only about the power and are unfazed by what you have to do to keep it.

[@zoltanrobertlovas4672]

But they don't actually take responsibility for what they do, do they? Politicians, people in "positions of power" rake a big pile of cash and do screw all. Not all mind you, but most.

Overwhelming responsibility. . . Yep. And it causes more to want want to go into such roles. Because one mistake. And it's over.

Helping your man and working for him so that he can be successful and take care of you and your children there's the ultimate job. Going out into the workforce and making other men Rich only supports the patriarchy

[@flatbedladyv2191]

Im lost...what is his point? Not every woman wants to be a parent. I would rather be stressed at a job. Than be a parent. That entire process is stress from beginning and never ending. Physically, emotionally, financially, . I dont know those women he is refereing to but i going to say many women dont have rich husbands who can support them and their childern for her to be a stay at home wife/mother. A 1 income household is a dream

[@jaydeepvipradas8606]

It's up to your potential, not your comfort....just lot of them are at average potential. Men has to prove themselves, so they have to push really hard. Hard work and time can be deligated if you are smart... powerful positions needs smartness.
