    I love her journalism so much. It’s so refreshing and she’s very open-minded. She seems to be fuelled by finding truth and solutions to pressing issues that aren’t being addressed much, which is what journalism should be. So much respect for you Iman!

      It's nice to see someone with actual passion for helping men, il admit im a man who is lost , nothing for me out there, specially as a soldier, there's is things from the army for example i joined in 96 an im half cast and i was beat the shit out of every day, sent me to counciling because the higher ups could see i was having a bad time but they didn't know what was going on or pretended it didn't exist, half hour with a psycoligist type he said everything was confidential and next thing i know my section sgt had everything i said in front of him, 5/6 years of shit like this , beating cos my parents were rich, beatings cos i was half cast, then beatings for impressing in certain aspects of the job....couldnt tell anyone , i never fought back because i wanted to be a soldier an i wasnt a snitch ,didnt tell anyone apart from my best mate in rl, his take on things were this...he gave me an ecstasy pill an told me to talk to me the next day...it opened my eyes it popped that bubble i was in and in stead of taking shit i fought back and almost killed the main guy who was responsible, it was 5 years of pressure from him, I didn't sleep and anyone who came at me i beat them up...but that only works so long because the problem i had was they had friends in high places so I became the problem , its been 20 years and i wake up with the guy on top of me punching the crap out o me, the fear of dread never goes away, I should have killed him, the stuff he did
      the witnesses would have made sure , I prob couldnt stay in the army but he was the only fight iv ran from, he's a regimental sgt major now.
      I feel iv let countless people have had the same thing from him that let iv let them down😔

      Bipolarbear 4873 I can in some small way relate to the feelings you shared. I’ve been through a fair bit myself. I have complex PTSD (not military related).
      I don’t have any solutions, but I wanted to show my support and my respect for you.
      As men, we are not always very good at that, and to be honest, we don’t really know how to do this kind of thing. It all tends to feel a bit awkward.
      But you had the balls to talk and be open.

    I’m glad she’s talking about the male experience. In the age of feminism, which I’m absolutely on board with, we will never have equality if we ignore the experience of the other half of the population and see what drives men to act this way. We also have to approach this experience with an open mind and compassion and only by bringing men with us do we ever have a shot at equality.

      The big problems that we face in this age is everyone's definition of feminism. I feel some radical people have given true feminism a certain level of toxicity which is putting a lot of people off from engaging in any conversation in regards to feminism.
      I'm all up for feminism but when it's rationally discussed and when the aim is to have an equality of opportunity. We should not distort things in such a way to tip the favours into a single direction and puts one side above the other.
      Actually this isn't a feminist thing but it appears in all different types of causes. The way we discuss different issues has become so toxic that it is preventing actual proper rational discussion from taking place.

      I'm sorry, but I feel like if someone wants to emotionally manipulate someone, they don't choose someone who cries, but rather just the person they want to manipulate. Also, there is probably no difference in how easy it is to manipulate someone, depending on if they are fine with crying or not. The people who are more desperate for an intimate relationship are.

    •  4 года назад +9

      Outlast Pokemon I’d argue the opposite as those who cry understand and have a positive relationship with their emotions and can usually tell when said feelings are being manipulated it’s those who don’t cry and don’t have a positive understanding of emotion who are easily manipulated

      "Toxic masculinity" refers to the parts of masculinity that are bad, for instance "boys don't cry" etc

    The problem isn't right or left, it's extreme views and jumping to conclusions without hearing what others have to say that's the problem, especially when most mainstream journalists have a fixed agenda they try to push rather than listen to understand. It's refreshing to be able to talk to people I disagree with so that we can understand each other and see if there's a problem underneath the assumptions because things are rarely simple. That's why people roll their eyes when people blame masculinity for people's greed and sadistic behaviour. Masculinity is essential and is irrelevant to bullying. I think the MeToo movement was a great idea but some women destroy innocent people's lives for money through court and it escalates into some radical feminism nonsense and puts people off having tough conversations. In summary, we need to stop blaming correlations and groups for individuals' behaviour.

Instead of giving people one of two boxes to jump in and blindly defend with their life, lets give them open questions and a good education where we teach them to form their own thoughts about everything every time.

    The most important books you can read to better understand the other gender is anything by John Gray (Mars & Venus) and the e-book The Queen’s Code by Alison Armstrong.
    Or any youtube interview with Alison as well.

      The notion of bodily autonomy gets kicked out when overwhelmingly poor boys are regularly encouraged - or forced - to die on battlefields or in workplaces in order for the more valuable and prized to enjoy what life has to offer.
      On fulfilment and the pursuit of happiness, Women need something to live for whereas Men crave something to die for.

      The Original meaning of it is. But what it's been turned into isn't. You have to be extreamly explicit in what you mean by it, as yes it means you want *equality* but it's also been turned into a word for a group of people that means "we hate men for no reason whatsoever" and "we are better than them". Because these dickheads have used it for their fucked up movement which has made the word very unpopular because you don't want to be associated with that bullshit.

    I think men share too little about feelings and insecurities, but women share too much. Waaaaaay too much. I'd rather she taught women to hold back on the emotions and the sharing and all that instead of dragging men into her reality. But I'm a typical dude-bro. I would need years of therapy before I'd actually know anything about the subject. Was that too much?

      The What!!? Alright maybe it’s just me but I’m not really concerned about whether a woman overshares I mean it’s their choice and I think it’s great that they’re able to freely express their emotions without the stigma of being sensitive, I myself am just learning how to truly express my feelings and point of views without caring about what other people think. We got to be confident in our emotions that’s all there is literally nothing to be ashamed out 🤷🏾‍♂️

    • @rasdasa
      @rasdasa 4 года назад +1

      @@AjBanjo We're not saying that no one is *allowed* to express their feelings as much as they want, we're saying that the oversharing of everything *can* become a destructive feedback loop. Like something minor happens to you, you go on twitter to complain, you get likes and reaffirmation, and so what was a small issue can takes on a bigger space in your mind because it teaches you that when you complain you get noticed. So then we get a culture of complaining simply to be acknowledged. Which is what we are seeing now.
      Psychologists have literally come out and published findings that we seem to haveentered a new generation of heightened narcissism, thanks to that exact social media feedback loop I'm describing. www.psychologytoday.com/us/articles/201609/meet-the-real-narcissists-theyre-not-what-you-think
      That isn't healthy of constructive. There's a reason we have timeless sayings that allude to this, such as "Don't make a mountain out of a mole hill"
      Again, you are misunderstanding if you think I'm saying you *can't* express as much as you want, because I think you can, it's not for me to tell someone when to cry or how. What I am saying is that we as a *whole* need to encourage more self introspection of issues and emotions, because at the moment, right now, there is an overabundance of emotional outcry over the slightest issues online, and it's breeding an unhealthy culture of petty outbursts. It's basically a culture of mob emotion.

    I happen to be male, but I don't think I am part of "men". Sometimes I'd like to be, sometimes I don't.

Personally, I prefer uncircumcised. It's as @Absolutely Ningen says, women in cultures where it's normal to do feel uncircumcised to be odd. While it's the opposite where it's not common practise. In general, that is. I didn't even know it was a thing until I learnt more about America.

      Though by it's own definition, it doesn't.

      but the common definition of feminism talks about achieving equality of the sexes through the advancement of the rights of women.
      And it has often, with varying degrees of validity, been framed as a struggle against men.
      There are some feminist thinkers that do see that equality requires advocacy for both sides, but they aren't featured much in the public conversation.

WE CAN NOT TRUST A WOMEN. Look at the statistics its more LIKILY you will be divorced and your assets will be takkken by a selfish women or she will cheat inevitably. Then so far as the man is concerned he is thrown out into the world with no hope, and a women with blanket and a warm house to sleep in. When society government and thr courts have literally been pussy whiped the last 70 or so years by women it's hardly surprising why men have toxic views on masculinity entrenched in them by TOXIC WOMEN. I think she NEEDS to go out and grill women's behaviour and get to the root of why women are soo shallow self centred and generally just mean.

    • @jordanmeanes4464
      @jordanmeanes4464 4 года назад

      Well there has been a trend in recent years of certain men being told they're not allowed to have an opinion as they're a 'white heterosexual male' (for example). Also with phrases such as 'mansplaining' or 'toxic masculinity' thrown around it doesn't feel like it's a safe enviroment for certain men to have an opinion.
      I'm not saying minority groups aren't deserving of a voice btw, I'm just saying it's more than likely that 'reasonable' men are probably opting out of the conversation as it seems the smart thing to do. Unfortunately this doesn't help anyone of course, with people just keeping quiet and if anything retreating further which is all well and good until an election comes round and they all get to vote.
      I actually think the media is to blame more than anything, constantly stirring things up in the name of ratings and in general most people are usually fairly reasonable. Having said that, I guess the best way to find out if you're pushing men away from the conversation is to ask them. Seems like a good start point.
