It’s undeniable that there is a lot of content out there that is just as damaging as what is being revealed about the “modern woman” and thats what I mean by the “nonsense”.
      I salute this brother every time I get the chance because his content is truly genuine and he gives me the vibe that he truly wants resolution and understanding between the genders for the black community, that is only way to build the bridge back to one another. Not just saying what’s trending to caress the male ego. which is what is seen on most channels with the same content. He has a way of articulating what needs to be said for there to be understanding. My hat is off to this man every time and wish there where more like him.

    It is critically important to have a counterbalance of imagery and expression from Black married couples who’ve achieved success in their relationship. There has literally never been a TV show that showcased a Black happily married, fulfilled, stay at home mother. There’s a reason for that…

    The key here is mentorship, as well as several other factors they discuss (mindset, collective planning, self awareness, same mindedness, delayed gratification, priorities, etc). Getting married young, in this society, is not a good idea unless the components this couple discusses are present. Our society does not produce mature young people. Our society produces self-centered individualist mindsets. I believe they are the exception to the rule. I think it is important for people to receive their message within the proper context. Again, if you listen to the conversation, they provide the context that made their young marriage successful. But if you do not find yourself inside of this mindset/consciousness and context, then a young marriage is absolutely not going to work for you.

    This is a great masterclass in what Commitment, Marriage, & Blk Love looks & sounds like. It's great exposure for people in these YT spaces that didn't grow up in good, traditional households with two married parents. I saw & experienced my parents day to day cooperation & marriage for the 43 years of my life, up to that time. They were together for 10 years before I was born. Many years ago... 17yrs in fact, I had to have this conversation with my wife who didn't grow up with her father in the house, married to her mother, and didn't recognize what cooperation looked like. Her mom raised her as a divorced, single mother and she was too young to remember her father in the home. I had to remind her what a committed, Blk marriage felt and looked like. Hopefully, this video helps a lot of people need to see & hear what Commitment, Cooperation, and Blk Love looks and sounds like. This is a good move and should be repeated on your channel. 👍🏾👍🏾

    I would love to hear more context surrounding the correlation between the 29:25 “Good Man v. Nice Guy” conversation and the upbringing/family environment conversation 1:13:42 .
    Less than 20% of Black people in America grow up in an environment with a married mother and father in the house; so the purpose, and character trait conversations end up being completely foreign.
    This also ties back to the focusing on purpose segment since purpose is tied to character.

      No thanks. I woul not reccomend young men marry young. All the OGs reccomend that, that is not conducive or good idea for young men. Ion really listen to women when it comes to conversation about manhood. Not saying that I'm not a student of life, but women tend to not deal in logic as well as a man. Especially in this climate. Young men barely know how to vet women properly

      @@furiousgtribal4325 that’s the problem. You can’t encourage young women to marry early without encouraging young men to marry early. As long as men delay marriage so will women.

      @@aferg76 That's fine. I don't believe in encouraging women to marry young. Especially because women flip flop their emotions day by day. Since the abundance of options they have with simps offering to fly them out, take trips, and have all these exciting experiences. Women have always been the more spontaneous sex when it comes to their day to day. Imagine, two months of your man not having taken you out on a date because of time, work, or whatever? Her mind may wander back to remembering this guy offered to get her in the club a day ago. VIP, drinks all night, behind the DJ Booth and all. And dudes are so lame today, these chicks will break their weak asses. With the amount of female games that's out there. That's why it's best for a guy to focus on his physique, , financial, and relationship skills. You gotta become that guy, she know she'd be a fool to lose

    Western society is based on liberal ideologies and values. It’s not based on religious ones and that’s why there’s so much moral decay and social turmoil.
    I’m a muslim and lived in the Middle East for almost a decade. People getting married while they’re teenagers is normal. I only know one person, a former coworker, who married when he and his wife were 16.

    You cannot walk into the Gym on the first day and be ready to perform at high level. That is an apt analogy for relationships. The problem is that there is no best practices that's commonly followed and too many people get damaged in the process of showing up. If I showed up at the gym and they just had equipment's all over the place with no instruction/instructors, I am likely to exercise incorrectly thereby hurting myself and developing an aversion to working out. That's why gym equipment are idiot proofed as much as possible.

    When men ask women what they bring it to the table we’re not talking about money. This is how I can tell they’ve been married for a long time and or not out here in the streets. When men say this, they are asking what do you bring to table that can benefit me as a man rather that be submissiveness, nurturing, support or even just great sex… money is the very last thing these men are talking about which shows me that this couple is really not fully up-to-date for this conversation…

    Great conversation especially from Yolanda's side. Going to be honest the brother's perspective was off, maybe its because he hasn't been in the dating world for a while but he didn't even attempt to try to speak to the guys who is out there doing all the right things or at least on track to getting there. Seem like every perspective that was brought up of a guy having issues in the dating world it has to be something they are doing wrong. Like he brought up men should marry earlier and don't sleep around. To me that shows he doesn't have a good perspective on men I know plenty of men that would of been married in their 20s if they could, but either they weren't in a position financially to do so or the women in the environments there are in aren't looking to get married they are in their "fun" phase. That has been my experience as well. And a large percentage of guys in their 20s aren't even in a position to sleep around like that.

      As men we can try our best to focus on where we can improve. Then these women also need to do same thing through listening to women like Yolanda.
      That’s how I interpreted it, although I get what you are saying.

    She was a purpose driven women that's the main reason why any of this worked. Going to therapy means taking accountability and admitting you have issues. Good luck with finding a female to do that today.
    I never had a mentor. I grew up fighting kids in school, defending me and my brother from my mom's horrible decisions in men. Running away from my dad's house because all he knew was to beat me when made a mistake. It was and still is hard for me to trust anyone because everyone that I've called family has either let me down or I had to fight. I really don't trust black men even though I'm one myself.
    Around early June this year I asked my girlfriend after a little over a year to marry me. I had laid my out what I was going to do in the next 3 years. I got a promotion or so I thought, to a better job, purchased a house for my future family. Well my job sent me to a location that the corporation was actually cutting ppl in my field. Lots of ppl. So many ppl that I couldn't understand why was I even sent to that location. Well because of this my income went down, then on top of that my fiance hates the house that I purchased for our future family. The house is all brick 3 bedroom 2000 sq-ft in the university district in Detroit. Her complaint was it looks too old. The house was built in 1936 but was in excellent shape. Mind you She had no money to put forth to the purchase and the area she wanted to stay was more than I could afford at the time. But I had to make a move because interest rates were low. Well I guess that was enough.for hee to start having "issues". Saying stuff like I don't think I want to gave kids anymore, and I don't think I'm enough for you....well she went to rent a condo for almost more money than she could afford. She could've been here in the house with me not struggling.
    I know that's a lot but.i had ti air some things out. It's not as simple as the couple in the video will have you to believe.
