How a Man's 'No' is Linked Directly to His Care and Provision
With great power comes great responsibility.
In this episode I dive into the link between duty, honor, and accountability and how these are all uniquely male attributes that require reverence. I talk about how the masculine drive towards these things shapes our relationships in positive ways and when appreciated how much that grows. I also get into one blind spot men have when focusing on accountability and making big-picture plans - women often feel unheard and not considered. I share an example for how men can help their women feel understood, considered, and connected while staying true to their boundaries and veto power through their ‘no.’ Ultimately this episode tries to paint the pic...

What's Behind the Female Desire for Male Guidance?

There’s that moment in the film when the woman turns to the man during a crisis and says, “what are we going to do now?” Contrary to the mainstream narrative that says this makes women look helpless, this is actually just the instinctual female desire to be guided at play here. I get into our survival instincts and how and why relationships play such a big role for women. I dive into detail abo...

One Missing Piece in the Debate About Men and Women

With many men ‘falling behind’ women in many aspects of life from university attendance to career success, the question many are asking is, ‘How do we help men find success and meet women where they are?” While valid, I believe it’s fundamentally the wrong question because it ignores a foundational principle about men and women - men don’t want to compete with women, they want to care for women...

In a recent study out of the Czech Republic, it’s reported that women are envious of men for their ‘lack of concern’ (among other things).

What’s actually going on here? It’s definitely not lack of concern. It all come...

Why are women more self-conscious than men? Full Episode #49 Ancient Intelligence
Men have always known the value of women it is woven into their very instincts. That this should be even debated this shows how sad things are , There has always been a balance between the masculine and feminine in the society , that balance was what made the species thrive and be successful. In the west most especially(but not only) that balance has been upset because of the modern economic systems and some of these ideologies. The lack of children (falling birth-rates) is a symptom of this. The society is slowly dying(at the family level) and this imbalance is at its centre
This, coming from a woman, wow!! really insightful, and very well articulated(loved the reference to the classic soviet era movie😅)
Ирония Судьбы come out of nowhere quite unexpectedly on a video in English
Anya, it is good and kind.....You skipped the stage when he becomes a child again, and needs a nurse to pee for him. I have something to look forward to. :-«
This is why I had to walk away from so many women. They all expected me to be responsible WITHOUT authority. I was basically a walking ATM. Got sick of it walked away.
It’s beautiful she encourages women to show respect for the men in their lives. Now it’s time for men to rise up and live lives worthy of respect.
We don't give advice without being very thoughtful of the issue and getting into the little details that give the best chance of success. When you ignore it or don't even consider it, it's like a big FU. I'm not going to keep wanting to waste my breath or mental energy. Feels so good when the woman in my life actually listens to enact my advice, though.
Yes, que vivan las mujeres.
I found this idea very helpful. 15:19
This is a good video. It pisses me off that after spending 16 years teaching my ex these things she still chose to throw it away as soon as I required some effort from her. Absolutely no sense of duty or honor.
With responsibility comes authority, rather it should but we've seemed to have forgotten that.
Along with risk coming with freedom. Part of the problem is we have too many women who want power and freedom without responsibility or risk.
We don’t tell her our plan because of the backlash from her if our plan falls through. We don’t need praise from someone else for succeeding. It’s better to just praise ourselves. A woman can’t do that. She needs praise from an external source.
It is the position of the man to have to make the sacrifice that is necessary, while it is the position of the woman to never fully comprehend the sacrifice that was needed. This is a brute fact that history shows cannot be changed. Therefore, a true feminine woman shows appreciation for the sacrifice she can never fully understand. That appreciation is perceived as gracefullness in a woman's behavior.
Excellent video. All of your stuff that I’ve seen has been really good
You seem to be able to understand and articulate about the male brain better than any woman I've ever heard.
Yeah, my wife holds the sole power to say no in our marriage. And she's miserable but refuses to play fair.
Amazing content! Good for both men and women.
Great video. I was raised by a feminist mother in a feminist society so I find no delight in biblical/traditional ideas about women's obedience, but the picture you've painted here makes it clear why that is important from an entirely practical perspective. Decisions made without accountability, honor, loyalty, without regard to consequences or even to safety are dangerous and must be checked by veto. A good woman will therefore recognize the need to obey the veto from her husband, father, or brother. It is futile and frankly ignorant to insist women discover accountability and honor and employ them even in a crisis. You're right, that simply will not work. They can however employ obedience.
"What women are missing is accountability" - No shit.
I don't think it's possible to revive the concept of honor while still outsourcing protection to policemen, otherwise you're just cosplaying at having authority
This is a very very important point about men. I hope women take some time out and understand what is being said here.
i dont think its depends on your gender. any woman can do this, what u describe as masculine. pls. just lets talk about low iq and respobsible adults.
A Feminist walks into a Ukrainian nightclub and asks the bartender….”where are all the men ?.”
The hardest part of telling anyone else the "plan" is the failure if you tell them and it takes longer or fails. Once you speak it out loud the expectation and pressure to complete is there in a massive way. We don't want to lose face with those we love by failing in front of them. Its fear based and hedging our bets. If you don't tell and it doesn't happen then they can pretend they didn't fail outwardly. But internally we know we failed and then it becomes a source of shame to admit, self doubt, and division because the women in our lives don't know what is off but know something is off. Not saying it's right, but I think it's the reason why more often than not why we keep secrets.
One caveat- female accountability has been loss because it was a physical reality. Once birth control, abortion, and the nanny state arrived it took away the natural consequences. It could be surmised that they never developed “honor” because their physical condition made dishonorable acts more costly. While they adhere to tradition they were more protected but if they stepped out, less so. For example, a woman could be raped if “she had no honor to take”. Any dependents were her responsibility alone. Family would often disown them. The proverbial scarlet letter would be attached to her. Add to this less mobility and everyone knowing their neighbors and yep just a bad idea indeed. Now of course with the discarding of life, shame, and increased mobility coupled with increased social safety nets and we have zero accountability with its accompanied problems.
The provider marriage concept that arose after WW2 created a society of prostitutes. Provider marriage and street walking are different payment structures of the purchase and sell of sex. We need to go back to a hunter/gatherer mindset, there is no more provision. Women that think of sex as their contribution that entitles them to "masculine provision" have a prostitution mentality. As we saw with the boom of feminism, it didn't make them great partners.
Trying to rehabilitate the woman brand after 100 years of pure sadistic betrayal, burning Western civilization to the ground and mutilating their kids for social points in the latest trans fad Women have revealed their truest selves, and it's absolutely irredeemable Her only loyalty is to her 'feelings' They're not good people Don't hate the reporter
The continuation of the nonsense of the woman that has lasted for tens of thousands of years :/
The problem with concepts of Matriarchy and Patriarchy is that they don't actually exist. No society is ruled by a gender. The reality is almost all societies are a variation of Oligarchy. When you look at pretty much any successful society in history, genders are usually somewhat segregated into spheres. Men tend be in the outward facing spheres of warfare, diplomacy, international trade etc, whereas women tend to control the inward facing areas, such as managing the home base, nurturing and educating the next generation, internal trade etc. interaction between genders was probably much less frequent than we experience today, by necessity and design. Regardless of matrilineal and patrilineal designs of said society these spheres still seem to exist largely unchanged. It's interesting that there is a perception of "Patriarchy" in many societies that probably truely deserve it no more than any other society, other than the fact that their male sphere might have just been much more visible than the female sphere to outsiders, and history in general.
Men don't want to create beauty? Ever heard of Rembrandt, or Leonardo or Yoyo Ma, or ..............?
It seems that women generally have a desire to be lifted up, carried, nurtured, their burdens shouldered by others, but little desire to do the same for those they believe to be beneath them (except children). As a result they rarely engage in concepts such as mentoring and actual true leadership. I'm not sure this has always been true, or is something women are losing in modernity, because women of the past have been capable of mentoring roles in large families/tribes, just not in the same way as men.
There were 500,000 men killed in the civil war!!! both sides gave all!!!! Army vet!!!!
So refreshing to hear these truths coming from a woman. I've said these things and had them resisted from women who seem to be offended by it. particularly if i say that honor and accountability are masculine traits. also, i wanted to affirm what you said about a man saying no, and sort of carry that into this idea of submission. i know, the word women cringe at. men need their women to trust them and follow direction not because we're power hungry and get off on controlling someone.. it's about protecting and providing containment and safety. yes, a fence is restricting.. but it's also keeping the wolves out.
They are fine. Enjoy the world they created for their women.They are evolving albeit slowly. The future is ace and asexual reproduction for all
I slept through New Years.
As a man you come to learn one overriding truth about vulnerability: it is what others look for in you that enables them to undermine and dominate you. It is tone-deaf and disrespectful for someone ask a man to "share his vulnerabilities". In my 60+ years I have had exactly zero men ask me this, even male therapists. But I have had a marital partner do so -- in the months preceding the divorce. She had been cheating for years while enjoying the comforts of our marriage. In truth, she was the one who would not be vulnerable, she was the one who would not share her inner truth with me (that she was no longer attracted to me). Be vulnerable to improve communication and trust? How about this instead: let's always bring our authentic selves to relationships, and the courage to have difficult but necessary conversations. That's not about being vulnerable, that's just being an adult.
My fiancee passed years ago. When I was ready to date again, everything was different! (Social media became popular by then) Now I understand what happened, but at this point not sure I care.
Masculine traits are not taught because they have been cast as toxic behaviors to be suppressed thanks to 60 years of feminism. Men are being portrayed as defective women. That said, blanket “no” without consideration is not good leadership either. As you point out, communication and consideration are the best path where men respect womens intuition and women respect mens role of responsibility.
exactly!
Which is why they couldn't lead, not because men wouldn't allow it but because they lack the basic characteristics of honor and responsibility, accountability. When a weak person gains power, the only obvious outcome is that they will abuse said power for personal gain since they were not shown how to use that power properly for the good of everyone. Everyone suffers in the end when leadership is selfish.
12:58 Essentially I'm playing a game of chess in my head against the idea. I'm simulating all the scenarios. “There are no solutions. There are only trade-offs” is a quote by economist Thomas Sowell.
Whoever appeals to the law against his fellow man is either a fool or a coward Whoever cannot take care of himself without that law is both For a wounded man shall say to his assailant "If I live I will kill you, if I die you are forgiven" Such is the rule of honor - Lamb Of God
I enjoy your videos, and I'm really glad that you're putting these summaries out here. This one in particular isn't quite on the money. For men, at least. Entertainment is more like a byproduct. I need to think about this more, but a couple of things come to mind, most of them subconscious: 1. Freely sharing strategies and solutions. This worked, that didn't, here's why, here's what happened. 2. Reinforce a culture or code of behavior. "Oh yeah Jim, remember that new guy who thought he knew it all on the first day? Billy, listen to what this guy did..." 3. Display competence. I see that you know how to do a thing. That reminds me of a time when I did a thing... Now we both have, hopefully, established the other person's respect for our competence. When this is done poorly, you get a person who is a one-upper. 4. Inspire, or develop camaraderie. Yeah, your circumstance sucks. Reminds me of when this thing happened and we were on it for days, but we pulled it off... Just a few thoughts. Edit: I wager that in the presence of women, we default to stories that showcase our competence. Which is probably why it drives them nuts to hear repeats, they can smell through the attempt, lol.
If you're in charge, the buck stops with you. You can't just shrug and walk away from your responsibilities. It's deadly serious stuff, and it absolutely requires a certain personality.
If that is true, how did the social elite come into being?
@@sidcomegys4154He's describing an attitude of responsibility. He is not describing a lawof the universe that every man must obey. When you make category errors so badly that other people have to explain rudimentary concepts to you, then your level of comprehension is absolutely zero. Instead of seeking knowledge, you present your own ignorance as a challenge to other people's ideas? That is the height of arrogance, and the depth of stupidity.
The elite do not honor this, and now our species is seriously in danger@@sidcomegys4154
Very good! Thanks
You sure sound like a Russian lady I knew on X . She told me the same thing,that honor is a male trait. She said women are chameleons, change to whatever is needed. She meant that in a snarky way, the chameleon part.
It's an interesting message, but you romaticise men too much. I agree with your musings of a foundational nature of the honor, and it's essential absense in women overall. But even for men it's a high level ethical construct. It's not purely instinctual, that's not enough. it has to be cultivated through parenting, education, erudition, trial of the character. Not everyone passes that trial. Perhaps, even most don't. Among all the works you could pick as a reference you chose a moskovian movie... There is no honor in that, especially in 2024, after the war crimes moscovian goblins commited in Ukraine again. It is true they watch that movie every year in mass for decades. What's the effect of that? Ah, I guess when they rob still twitching bodies of their own comrades they think of how nice would it be to go back home and watch that movie again... I do no even want to go into what happened to women after those Irony of Fate's lovers had their fun with them, do not want this post banned afterall. Honor is a trait of civilization, society, culture. A man that is born into savagery does not have it, let's not forget that.
This was a refreshing, intelligent look at some key characteristics that define each gender. As a husband, I emphasize making my wife feel heard and valuing her input. She in turn appreciates my guidance and leadership.
That's all accurate, but it's also like dealing with a child, or adolescent, which is very tiresome.
That's my experience ! I went right through my twenties without any interest from women. I thought that a relationship would just develop in the same way as making friends with anyone else, but this never worked out. I never developed those 'traditional' male traits of such things as leadership, dominance, strength etc. and viewed that being with a woman should be an equal partnership. I think this is what putting many 'sensitive' men off women today. I did eventually change how i behaved and thought, but it took some effort and practice. ( and yes, it does feel like i'm with an 'adolescent', but it's something that you just have to get used to !)
Six decades of vilifying and criminalizing men will not be undone with a few flattering words. Why bother with one of you? What would I trade away my peace, health and financial security for? A pat on the head? Children that you would use as leverage against me in court? A daily life dealing with someone who you admit lacks accountability and honor? No.
Feminism teaches women to be more like men and less like a real woman husbands need. What is fascinating is how all of society demands and forces men to fulfill their protective and provision role but won’t dare expect or even shame women to fulfill her role to husbands and society. Even the church is like this that you can’t tell a woman no . Anyways good video to see the good in men
