    When Mayihlome said the worst thing to do is marry for love. I differed. But I think he meant affection. Which is that feeling. The butterflies and stuff. But Love. Love is commitment. Love is choice. It’s a jacket you must put on every day. You don’t marry for it. It is instead a verb. An action you must take everyday. This interview got me thinking. Kudos to Black Pen and Mayihlome!

      I think what he was trying to emphasize is love only cannot sustain a relationship. The things that affect our lives on almost everyday and how we view them and how decide to tackle them everyday is what sustain a relationship.... Well that's just my opinion.

      @@lehlagaremogadime7494 I most definitely agree. There are other practical things we must all consider when choosing a partner. We sometimes dismiss them thinking affection will be enough. When it really isn’t and won’t be.

    This is probably one of the most powerful pieces of information on the internet; It's so groundbreaking and refreshing, I am looking forward to part 2. Without sounding tribal but we as a Xhosa tribe do not have such profound speakers in our time except maybe those who are political affiliated and as a 2nd biggest tribe in the country after the Zulu's I always wonder if whether we are ignorant, complacent or maybe just not equipped enough and my conclusion is that we are too segregated as a tribe as opposed to the Zulu's who more often than not show unity and solidarity nonetheless thank you Penuel and your team for unearthing these great minds and bringing them to our attention.

    I broke down seeing a child brought to our practice for a dental procedure and the dad was there reassured the girl that she is brave and he was proud of her.
    I was torn apart, to date I do not have a baby.
    I want my baby to expirience love from present parents.

      Have you tried attending therapy? You need to see a professional and heal before engaging in romantic relationships because your childhood traumas will insist on haunting you and causing ripple effects in your life. You may have suffered from the fatherless daughter syndrome (colloquially referred to as daddy issues). It's not your fault whatsoever and you shouldn't feel ashamed, which is why you need to see someone. I will also add that I am glad you have a good sense of self-awareness which is a good start to resolving your past. I wonder if you grew up experiencing mental health issues that are actually probable and justified.
      This is a very sensitive matter and I am speaking from a position of the same experience.
      I wish you grace.
      Please do not be so hard on yourself 😊

  • @lebohangtekela5908
    @lebohangtekela5908 Год назад +2

    Great conversation. i would like to differ a bit with Mayihlome. on the part of presence, a lot of black men are blocked out of their children's lives. Pen asks a valid question when he asks if Mayihlome is referring to our fathers or us. Modern black men want to be in their children's lives, we just have so many sisters giving conditions, if you dare differ with what she deems a great father/parent then you are out in the cold when it comes to your kids. Again Pen is correct when he says, successful co-parenting situations are those where the man complies with the rules set by the mother, otherwise, forget it. As a disclaimer, i have to mention that i got massive respect to Mayi, he is such a great man.

    • @palesamogorosi8939
      @palesamogorosi8939 Год назад

      This is arguable. Are the "conditions" necessarily in bad faith? Sometimes, one parent may simply only want what is best for their child's life which could be in disagreement with the other parent. I think it depends. Modern black men are actually improving (slowly but surely) the shortcomings of their forefathers because as society is evolving, humans are becoming more progressive and understand how important intentional and gentle parenting is. We are learning to be more affectionate, compassionate, attentive, and patient. We are understanding that emotional presence is needed greatly for the sake of stable mental health. A hug, a pat on the shoulder, a kiss on the cheek, asking how someone's day was, showing up, being vulnerable and so much more.
      Yes, black men may be lagging behind as compared to men of other races and that is due to a myriad of reasons, but as much as we acknowledge this reality, I have come across a lot of men who are getting their ducks in a row. It's not happening as fast as we would want it to happen, but I am hopeful we can realize a change one day. We need the present and level-headed fathers that we have to be role models for other men so that they have people to look up to and not end up being ushered into the dark by the many lost souls in this world.
      Penuel refers to female privilege and I am not sure about that. His examples of what kind of ideals women supposedly expect from men are in themselves morally justified and I think a man or woman is inclined to agree with them. He mentioned a woman not wanting their child to wave a gun or watch porn? Is that a wrong thing to ask for? If a man would expect the same, how would this be any different? In some cases, both parents could be of the same view. I am of the opinion that if something has merit, then both parties should be able to reach an understanding of co-parenting harmoniously as the caregivers of the children. It goes down to also sharing the same values and having mutual respect, which makes this process less challenging and less selfish. If not, you will encounter conflicts. I also think if you feel unfairly treated in consideration, you should then seek legal assistance for a less biased resolution.
      The other discussion would be people having children that they are not prepared to take care of and this is a serious issue in the black community. We often shoot ourselves in the foot.
      Apologies for rambling.

    Instead of hating on Penuel's progress, Mac should just hire a creative interior designer so that Podcast and Chill could have a better looking studio other than the yellow "Puzi Juice" aesthetic. He already has a good quality videos. Penuel just came with a dope set up and I honestly don't think he should be competitive while he's already at the top and paving a way for African podcasts. That's very short-sighted for a "genius". Also, he shouldn't claim that Black Pen is captured just because he's a non-racialist and associated with Rob Hersov, everyone is different.

    San'bonani Beautiful People
    On Parenting, but'omdala can we some how in the near future have an episode, even a series.
    Cause I believe we are all doing this "life thing" for the children and it is fundamental to have a base as "brown/ people" and a community.
    As i am hearing the conversation on parenting it hits home, by home I mean Africa and definitely the World at large.
    We could have our own base of the does and don'ts.
    For example, is'bhaqo / corporal punishment
    They is a way in how you discipline a child using a belt to having a parent slap a child, that's just an extension of the how to or in some instances where even the belt is used beyond measure, in a nutshell I feel it would just be beneficial to have such a series in our archives.
    Lol ngithi ours cause I am family to the show and the movement at large.
    Ngiyabonga.
    Happy Sabbath, Bless.
