      And tendencies across politics to stereotype. We must rise above that tendency in human nature. Seek understanding of the individual, try to know their character at least before criticizing. Civil, honest discourse leads to a civil outcome that respects all parties, and all parties should be able to respect.
      Where most people I know started to have a problem was when some on the Left decided to start targeting children with concepts they aren't ready for.

      I've watched extensive videos on marital arrangements in the New-York Hassidic world recently, each video dripping in admirative comments right below, and I witnessed a well justified angry Muslim viewer who was asking why it was ok with westerners to have Jewish confine women to "wanting to lean on men" an confine men to "wanting to lead and provide".. while it is unthinkable to express the same without receiving a vitriolic response as a Muslim.

      I think so too, maybe. But why is a "masculine men" protective? Loving is not exclusive to anybody and that includes "weak" and "strong" men. But why are "strong men" protective?
      In my understanding, if you're strong, you have trust. And if you trust, you don't need to protect anybody, because you trust them to protect themselves. If you're "strong", you're also capable. So why is it that you, the "strong" one, in need of protecting, if you trust and believe in the capability of others.
      This implies that other people are weak because they need protection.
      So... I don't think this quote is exactly what it wants to be. I'm honestly confused.

      The thing I can't stand about Peterson is that he misrepresents history. Communism wasn't really that popular until the nations of Europe plunged their populations into World War 1, causing Mass death, famine and exacerbating the Spanish flu pandemic. When capitalism gets out of control, it causes communism to happen. I'm not endorsing either system- I'm just explaining that one is caused by the other. Moreover, communist governments mostly kill people in their own countries, whereas capitalist governments have done it mostly in other people's countries. Stalin killed millions in Russia, Ukraine and Poland. Anti-communist Nazi Germany also killed millions in Russia, Ukraine and Poland. My dad walked over fields of corpses in Vietnam. We committed a genocide there because we said that they don't have the right to be communists, even in their own country. So we went there and killed millions of people, spraying agent orange and poisoning generations to come. Go look at the photos of the baby sometimes, but don't do it before you have to eat anything.

    I adore Jordan Peterson. I started watching him about three years ago, at 42, when I was both having something like a spiritual awakening and rebuilding my life as a sober person. I wasn't exactly paying attention to the rest of the world because my personal life was in shambles, and being rock bottom set me up for tough lessons. He spoke my language. I had been a 'victim' all of my life and precisely what he said here, I needed to encourage my own masculine side. Anyway, just the anecdotal experience of one woman. Peterson doesn't coddle but I've seen him speak and can feel his genuine love and concern.

    I am a woman and I’ve lived a very difficult life so as a result of that I had to develop a lot of masculinity but right now I am in a beautiful space in my life where I am finally mostly in my feminine energy and can switch on my masculine when I see necessary.
    My boyfriend also had a difficult upbringing but that has made him very loving and sweet but lost touch with his ‘get go’ mode. It was many difficult conversations to make him see that masculinity is not being expressed, I am stressed at times because he’s so chilled out and I take on way too much responsibility like I said he’s the sweetest boy in the world and would do anything for me so he’s realising it slowly. I feel so blessed to live my life with him ♥️

Your last video with Jordan really helped me in an area I was struggling with. It was emotionally disturbing to me. In a very positive manner. How to be moral and also not cast it aside in my employment. When Jordan mentioned how much more reward do you need than knowing someone has benefited from something you shared. That was the goal to help, correct? You try but you don’t know and than you found it helped someone profoundly. That would be surprising and very humbling. Very. I don’t go to church often and I have even found myself questioning religion. However…I can not imagine Jesus as he has been described, not being his most pleased by a person simply helping someone else and genuinely caring. That is simple but…it’s most true. Thank you for caring and providing so much thought provoking commentary. What a person you have become. Another trait that would be admired by a kind and loving higher being…selfless.

I've always had issues with the patriarchy, but couldn't entirely support the misandrist attitude many feminist movements usually carry with them. Extreme femininity and total rejection of the masculine can also be detrimental to people's well being, I know this first hand as an abuse survivor who grew up with a crazy borderline mother. We need to learn to embrace the positive aspects of masculinity and feminity and reject the toxic ones. There always needs to be a balance between these two "energies" in all of us, as both can spiral out of control.

    I'd like to propose that it could also be the refusal to see the feminine side of the masculine dominated energy. At the beginning you spoke of it being overbearing parents and by end,the all consuming mother, "feminine". Could then the distortion of masculine energy be because of the distortion of it's feminine energy or the denial of it. Jung theorized this as the anime, masculine, animus, feminine, and your shadow self if dominantly masculine being it's feminine energy. I've found with my own growth that your relationship with self has alot to do with your relationship between your masculine and feminine in you.
