As a woman I say thanks to all the men who built and sustain our world. I don’t hate men I just dislike weak men. We need strong men. Good times create weak men hard times create strong men. If we went back to some hard times both women and men will reboot to their roles. I’m not part of the let’s hate men culture.
The men in my life are my life. Today's young women seem immature and self-centered. Instead of learning and healing after a betrayal, they remain stuck in bitterness and hate. It's time to grow up, ladies.
And many of them haven't even experienced a direct betrayal (or oppression or violence etc), however they're angry on other people's behalf and stay stuck in that anger.
Don't be too hard on today's young women. It's hard for them to know who to trust and why with all the noise out there, and plenty of poor role models. Be kind.
I'm a 30-year-old black American. My father was never there for me a stepfather was authoritarian abusive My mother was a bit narcissistic and most of my family grew up in the ghetto. The last 15 or so years of my life I've basically pissed away every opportunity I have had and now I'm busting my ass working at a tire shop for $15 an hour and also taking out people's trash at night for about 2 to 3 hours. I needed to hear this I've never been suicidal but I have gone hollow once or twice and definitely had anger issues. I don't have anybody to teach me how to be a man so I have to figure it out by reading books and meditating. I can honestly say to hear that people appreciate the work I do not only feels me with a deep joy but also a deep sadness that stems from a fear that I won't be anything more than the average Joe. I'm getting there it's just really hard I try not to complain but nobody sees you fighting demons in your head.
It's a LONG road back from having an abusive (step)father/authority figure ... decades, a lifetime; you're not alone in that. Extreme abuse WILL rewire your brain, facilitating adult depression; counseling cannot reverse the neurological burn-in of abuse. When you notice an impending depressive cycle, immediately reduce your temporal window to the here and now - accomplish something (even if small), mark things off your ToDo list, acknowledge the accomplishments. Life is about defying entropy - be defiant! [ Side note: I was a fairly dedicated agnostic most of my life, but over time, if you're REALLY paying attention, you notice patterns that virtually prove that we're not alone here. Are there guardian angels, does God exist, ... ? I have no idea, but something like that is afoot. I KNOW that I/we/you are not alone. When you realize/accept that, it tends to brighten your outlook. Give Contact (1997) a watch and be inspired. Make it your mission to discover that for yourself. ]
Try the book - "The Rational Male" By Rollo Tomassi. There is no replacement for a father for 15 years, but it's a step in the right direction in terms of advice and hard truths you need to hear.
There is honor in hard work. There is honor in dedication. Your value comes from your heavenly Father. not "being someone". He wants you to be the man He intends you to be.
@@paratracker thank you I will give that a watch. For a long time I've never accepted the concept of God having two terrible fathers I didn't want to have a third lol. But here recently I've been studying philosophy and religion and it's definitely improving my outlook on life.
My father has been critical to my development. He guided me away from stupid choices and towards choices that would help me thrive. Even with a fantastic father, feminism and having a devouring mother has lead me to not develop my masculinity to the level it should be at.
It's up to you to pull your socks up and get on with "healing" yourself. Stop the blaming and start taking responsibility for your current and future behaviour.
When I was a kid my father (tough old school guy) would have tea parties with my younger sister. His hands were so big he could barely hold the little cups. He taught me how to be a man. If it weren't for him I wouldn't be in a good place in life. Thanks dad.
That reminds me of my dad. My dad was huge, and he wasn't fat. His hands and fingers were gigantic, and my friends were afraid of him. But he was always kind, calm, and gentle with my mom and I and my 2 sisters.
It sad but many of my daughters friends don't have dad's in their lives. I give my daughters advice for their friends even though they are scared of me. They give it to them as if it's their advice but these poor children need it.
so incredibly dehumanizing its so disgusting watching those clips... and then you see the broadcasted propaganda and it all makes sense. thank you for this video. you are a wonderful woman.
I'm 35, my wife,34. We have 3 girls and two boys. I have to say, thank you for this video. As you said, men need encouragement and you are a very positive voice. You rock!
Thank you sooooo much for this! I am a retired body guard and I get calls from elderly friends to go to the store with them because I still keep up my skills and keep them safe!
Thank you. We appreciate you. ❤ It’s tough sometimes hearing even my own family having such a negative attitude towards normal masculine traits. Objectivity, logic, constructive criticism….
11:20 this is exactly what I've been saying! I myself was raised by a single mother that kept me away from any healthy masculine role models and now I'm trying to figure out how to rebuild the foundation of my masculinity and it is so incredibly difficult. Hopefully if I do succeed I hope to provide other adult boys with help to rebuild themselves as well as promoting a healthier attachment style.
Dude, I had 0 masculine role models. Not even my father. You will figure it out on your own by force seeing how society treats you. You will manage. No need to over complicate.
I'm 43 today, spending my birthday watching her videos. My father was abusive to my mother but died when I was only 2. I've only recently in the past few years begun to delve into what effect all of this has had in my life today. She has so many videos that hit me deep. I'm trying to break the cycles of both sides of my lineage and these videos are giving me a lot to explore.
Wow, after soo many years. I am starting to hearing more an more woman supporting man. Why, because the world would stop functioning without men. How did all of this issue been pushed under the rug.
Sure. We need non feminist women, that are loving and caring, and don't use victim card each time they want to have something, or just for sadistic fun.
I'm approaching 72 years of age. I grew up from the age of 10 without a father as did my siblings. The lack of a father's love and guidance nearly led to my death multiple times as I struggled to find my way through life alone. I was a masculine boy with an overabundance of older females in my life but virtually no male influence. The result was that the woldview I developed was skewed in a female direction though I was heterosexual. The end result was that I never succeeded in my personal life because female worldview is maladaptive in a young male. I became a "nice guy", but we all know what happens to "nice guys". By my late twenties, I realized I would never marry or have children, so I stopped trying in my personal life and resigned myself to being a "loser". I decided to pursue a career instead and I succeeded in becoming a professional with a six figure income but by the time I got to that point, the desirable women were far younger than me. I wound up living my life alone with my career and my money but no one to share it with. I retired early and for the last decade have studied the plight of fatherless children especially boys. Thanks for this excellent summary of this timely topic.
I am grateful that. Despite being divorced, my mother made sure we had time with my dad. Even she knew the importance of this. Have fun trying to convince the third way feminist of these actual truths
This is a great video. I grew up with an amazing mother but barely knowing my dad and although i turned out alright, i am very well aware of all the things the boys with dads in their lives just understood or "got" witbout learning the hard way. This is hard to quantify but i have found theres a certain kind of calmness and certainty that my friends who grew up with confident fathers have that i really had to learn myself thru trial and error, meditation and Journaling, and ultimately pain and heartbreak. I wouldnt necessarily change anything cause i do love my life, but everything you said in this video is 100% right as far as im concerned
I am a father, grandfather, greatgrandfather. That had to learn how to be a man. I have to give credit to my uncles and my friends that had a father in their homes. It does make a difference on who you gravitate to as a child growing up. Thank God I grew up in a time when their were more fathers in the homes. This is a great video, because youngmen need to know, they are needed and valuable in todays society. Thanks for this video, younglady. ❤
As a woman single motherhood will never be a win in my book. I grew up in a single mother household I said never would be me. I was so ashamed to say my siblings had different dads and mom wasn’t married with all the kids she had. It takes two to make a kid it takes two to raise a child. We need strong men to make a come back. Men be men and the right woman will find you. I know the bad women seem to out-weight the good ones but we are out there. I love all you said in this video.
You mentioned that the argument some make about men no longer being necessary because we no longer need hunters and warriors is erroneous, and I agree. What needs to be pointed out is that a large number of women have traded in men and the efforts necessary to maintain a relationship with one for the relatively low-effort reliance on government for needs and protections. The government, an entity that thrives on having more to do and a knack for ends justifying means, are more than happy to take the place of men, and assist in the demonizing of men, since the men cannot escape the influence of the government. I am the second of 8 kids to a single mother, who was herself the eldest of three to a single mother. I struggled a lot in my teens and early 20's (and still do somewhat today) with what my role is as a male short of being of the most service to the woman who is in charge of a given situation. I knew more at 18 how to care for young children than anyone else I knew that was my age. Getting married to a blessedly kind woman and having two sons has helped me immensely because it gave me the drive to figure things out like I naturally tend to, but with respect to my role and how I choose to teach my sons. My wife speaks very positively of masculinity to my sons, and shows them she values me, and I in turn demonstrate to them the way a man ought to treat a caring woman. I also make it transparent that, for as happy and positive a relationship my wife and I have, we are still human and have disagreements. Before this video, I watched your video on toxic femininity. While I have to say that telling men they aren't toxic and pointing out to women that they can be is going to rub some people wrong, I zeroed in on your take about women's conflict methods: Keep ambition disguised and use egalitarian language to quietly pocket more, gather social support to guide from the rear against the subject of their ire, and only resorting to physical and verbal aggression when nothing else works. I compared this to the methodologies of the socio-political sphere, and I noticed similarities with a particular collection of individuals. Said collection of individuals has not taken it well that now two female candidates for the highest office were not elected, and they cite (among other things) that it is a gendered issue while declining to address the way they belittle half of the population every minute of every day. For me to be a good man, there is an expectation on me to place myself in physical harm for the protection of a woman or child from a man. Indeed, if I am not protecting a woman's or child's physical, mental, and emotional well-being from the actions of any man, I am not a good man. We know this intrinsically, and then it is preached to us from the moment we can understand a language. What counts as 'harm' keeps changing, but that is a different subject. When I see that one woman literally decapitated her male partner and threw his head in a public trash can, and another slipped five times the lethal dose of fentanyl into a Moscow Mule she made her husband before going on to write a children's book about dealing with the grief of suddenly losing a husband and father, I am reminded that women and men are equal - capable of equal good and equal evil. So, I asked the question of "if the measure of a Good Man is to protect all women and children from all men, regardless of reason, does that make the litmus of a Good Woman the sort that likewise protects all men and children from all women, regardless of reason? But, after watching the Toxic Femininity video, I now understand why it isn't: the toxically feminine have more power and influence than the positively feminine. For the good women to come to the defense of men that are being abused and torn down by a system of the government brought in to enforce the will of the Mean Girls (who also sometimes abuse and tear down men by themselves!) borders on suicide. Good women have to work according to the first principle of keeping their ambitions quiet to stand a chance of being able to help at all long-term. Thank you for your content. It's given me a lot to consider. Thank you also for your plea to men that they not give up, because it is happening.
Excellently worded, not many males will grasp the subtlety though. Its truly insidious how much feminazis have infiltrated and almost destroyed our society! Repeal the 19th immediately, and bring back force doctrine here like most none western countries use!
I agree with this. Not everyone is going to like you, but who cares? Surround yourself with good quality people and stop giving a damn about the naysayers.
wow this channel is a gold mine and I just discovered it! You are 100% right on this, men need rites of passage through life (graduation, marriage, go to war, enter a profession) without them it just becomes a purposeless daily grind
I’ve been struggling finding my foothold as a man for 7 years now. Thank you for your words of wisdom and inspiration to find my calling, to contribute to my family and society❤
Loving your videos. It's refreshing to see this take coming from a woman. I'll note that its important for women who see things this way to start confronting the ignorant women on this issue. Especially mothers of young boys, if they expect their boys to get a fair shake in the world.
You get the society you deserve, and by that I mean you get the society you build. There was a report I read years ago about how long it would take to turn men into soldiers. 80%, assuming they volunteered and not conscripts, could become soldiers in 12 to 16 weeks. Not great soldiers but good enough. I know young men, that core of iron is still in 80% of them. Most of them could be turned into strong men in about 12 weeks with some decent mentorship. The trouble is we don't have a society that wants to invest 12 weeks into doing so. Quite the opposite in fact. So we have the society we deserve [Edit: Most military training is usually based around three or four 16 week courses for this reason, 4 weeks for theory and 12 weeks for building competency]
God bless you! Thank you for your positive message about men. You are also spot on about the evolutionary roles of men & women. Complementary.. biggest problem with lack of fatherhood is the inequality in family courts
A very refreshing perspective of men from a well-educated and open-minded lady. Thank you for this great video. As a man, it was really enjoyable watching this.
This video has been incredibly helpful, thank you so much. It’s ironic to see your subscriber count so low, while those loud proponents of feminism on TH-cam have millions of subscribers and views. Although I can’t donate, I wanted to leave a comment to show my support. I’ve taken down many of your quotes from this video, and I often go back to them. They’ve been truly insightful for my personal growth and have given me a new perspective on how to become a better man and a future father. I really hope you will produce more content on men's development, especially on the meaningful aspects of masculinity in traditional cultures. Thank you again.
excellent. I have a 15 year old son and your words are what I've learned in my life. You have crystalized the male experience and its necessity. My son needs to find his way of supporting a family. I have done this, and it's his turn now. I want him to be free to explore the world and himself as learns to be a man. I want him to keep his vision of his future and don't stay from it. Don't let any woman distract him like what happened to me. He has his mission in life.
Thank you sooo much for this video, i haven't commented under any video in the past 5 years but i wanted to show my gratitude not only because you've helped me understand my current situation/experiences in my life right now and validate my feelings, but you have helped motivate me and gave me a push moving forward, you also reminded me that there are wonderful, honest and genuinely kind woman out there like you, i have also grown up without a father so this video resonated me on an even deeper level. You have all my respect, i seriously cannot thank you enough.
Excellent video. You touched on so many of the thoughts I've been having for a long time. I truly hope that both men and women in the Western world can wake up and realize the ebb and flow nature of the two halves.
For myself, I never had a father in the home. I now have two boys that I'm working to grow into men, one 14 and the other about to be 9. I remember reading books like Wild at Heart by John Eldredge, which taught me a lot of what it means to be a man, but I often feel more like Dax's song "To Be A Man" is really hitting the pulse of what I experience. The question in my heart over how to bring these two young amazing boys into a world of men, when often I question whether or not I've 'achieved' that lofty title of being a real man is at the core of my being. While I look at my life, and see that I'm willing to do anything to keep my family going, including working multiple jobs to make sure that I've got food on the table. My goal is to prepare them for what real life is like, and I'm appreciative of this video specifically because it does remind me to raise my two young men to have a true aim in life, and that they have the strength it takes to achieve those ends. We hear so much about the Toxic Masculinity, which with many tends to mean all masculinity for the internet world. But as Eldredge said in Wild at Heart, it was the strength of young men who have shielded others with their own bodies to save their lives even at the cost of their own in the horrible Columbine shooting. It was the strength of men who stopped the horrible regimes of terror in WW2, and it was the strength of men who have continually put themselves in harms way in order to save others.
I really enjoyed this video and I agree 99% with everything you have said here. However, there’s one thing I must take exception with. In your videos there is an almost ubiquitous thread running through them. That thread is the idea of evolutionary pressure improving on human biological systems. Humanistic evolution is irrational in every sense of the word. The proper term to use would be adaptation. Complex biological nature does not arise from chance mutations. Beneficial mutations are extremely rare while deleterious mutations are very common. It doesn’t matter how many billions of mud puddles are being struck with lightning bolts, the result is never life. Try taking those odds to the roulette table in Las Vegas. The building blocks that are formed are always of the wrong chirality. It requires thought to arrange the building blocks with the right form of charity. Complex structures require thought. Thought comes from the mind. Order requires the Logos or thought. Through thought, the Logos transforms chaos into order or cosmos. Adaptation requires programming. Mindless evolution does not have the ability to code. When the creator fashioned the first humans, they were completely human and instilled with all the genetic programming and complex DNA required to adapt to any environment needed for their survival. This is all done with thoughtful, rational coding. Scientists have only begun to scratch the surface of this code. What was once thought of as junk DNA turns out to be very important. And I will venture to say that this coding structure goes all the way down to the quantum level in ways we have not begun to imagine. Again, rational code is a language. Language requires thought. Chaos cannot create order! That is completely irrational. Only a highly intelligent mind is capable of language and code. Genetics are instilled with very sophisticated language programs that are designed with the sole purpose of improving the biological system to survive in its environment. It doesn’t matter how many brilliant Scientists claim to be evolutionary biologists. None of this arises by chance or magical serendipity. Once again that is completely irrational. It is the Lagos or the mind that brings order out of chaos. It did not evolve. It was created by a mind to be perfectly complete from the very beginning.
Men built this world with blood sweat and tears, AKA back breaking hard effort that frankly wasn't good for out overall wellbeing... Yet the society we created has betrayed us; and left us with NOTHING... why would we make that mistake again??? We wouldn't...
The Ghosts of good men: Zeus in the film "Wrath of the Titans" warned Persius that with the the death of the gods, all their works would come undone - all of it. This is the same scenario that is playing out in the West, with the tearing down and vilification of authentic masculinity. Feminist in their paronoid delusions thought by crushing masculinity, aka the patriarchy, they would be able build their perfect plastic Barbie world in it's place. What they failed to grasp is that with the death of Heroic Masculine Purpose, the age of the villain would begin - a glorious new age in which the strong take what they want by any means, and the devil smiles down on us all.
Thank you for your encouraging words. I see so many of my friends live in demoralizing relationships where they are treated so poorly. It is hard to watch. For myself I did not marry my son's mother for this reason. Though we are better friends and I have a great relationship with my son I saw where the relationship was headed and I couldn't live that way. I want to be a good man and a upright example to others especially my son. I hope I can persevere in these dark times and be a light. Thanks again.
Thank you Roni. Finally someone sane out there. You touched a nerve there on rites of passages. I believe it’s what’s missing in our western societies, and it’s what explain 40 years old teens. So I created my own rite of passage ;)
I am glad to find your channel, finally somebody who speack the truth about the social dynamics, and even a woman. Most women are busy speakcking the ideologic narrative of feminisme, and is rare to find a pragmatic and realistic woman in todays world. Thanks
I’m a 68 yo male and have seen a lot, groups of men hating ALL women and groups of women hating ALL men. This is a direct result of their poor relationship decisions. The key is choosing carefully who you want to procreate with. I have never felt a reason to talk to my sons much about women. My actions spoke much louder than any words I could say. The key to a successful, loving and long lasting relationship is shared views of the world. It takes time to know yourself and a potential partner.
I have very mixed feelings about this video. As a NON-christian American man, while I do tend to fall into the more heteronormative societal role, I don't go for imposing gender roles on people, nor any of the bs machismo my generation x had to put up with. Well I do agree with you that men need to be able to talk about men issues without being demonized and asked, "when did you start hating women!?" I could definitely live without all the christian propaganda and faith-based bs either. I agree that boys need good strong male role models, but they don't have to be pillars of the church in order to be that. Nor do they even need to be religious at all. Religion doesn't make a man, a man makes a man, and most importantly a man makes himself, but he could use help getting there.
This was a good video fr. I never bought into the whole "toxic masculinity" bs to begin with. I have too much that I'm responsible for. Daughters that i want the best for. Taking care of my parents before they passed. Taking care of my grandmother now. I have a physical job that requires strength and intelligence to do and i don't care what anyone thinks of me as long as my family is taken care of. But growing up without my dad for most of my childhood (until i was 16) did its damage. Ive been depressed coped with drugs and alcohol dropped out of school and done time locked up. Id say i didnt "become a man" until i was around 27-28. I was always in my children's lives as much as i could be. I hope I've done right by them. I guess i have cause I've overheard my almost 16 year old telling her friends that she has the best dad lol. Gotta take the complements whete you can get them as a man. Nobody ever tells us "good job" or "youre doing good" but i really dont care tbh. I kinda prefer it that way. Seeing my kids confused cause as girls they didnt understand how i could go to funerals and not show much emotion at all. But at the same time they needed me to not. They needed that stoicism. But it is good that women are coming out saying that being masculine is a good thing. I wouldn't have changed for psychologists or strange women complaining online. But its still nice knowing some women understand and appreciate us for the thankless bs we have to deal with in silence cause if we complain lol. So thank you and thank all the women like you. We men do appreciate it even if we dont show it
My understanding is that undergraduate psychology courses are dominated by female students. I imagine this has an effect on the slant and focus of published papers in the subject.
Who exactly is teaching young men that masculinity is toxic? Could it be feminism and the vast majority of women? In such a society, developing masculine virtues for oneself and not anyone else is critical. You need to understand women and the legal system that they created has the primary objective of exploiting your virtues. Not every woman will use the legal system as a weapon, but every single woman can. As they say, you never truly know a woman until you meet her in divorce court. It is super easy for a woman to let her lawyer exploit you while she keeps her hands clean. It is super easy for a woman to take your children from you. A single "I feel afraid of him" is all it takes.
Doubt that they are a vast majority, they are a minority, but very loud on social media, also often work in education system and media. Thats why there is such polarization, the innert majority is getting fed up with the nonsense of that minority. Also they have a backwards definition of toxic masculinity - what somebody originaly meant by it is like domestic violence type of some crazy macho, but wokies managed to take that and upgrade to some crazy image that any sign of masculinity is "toxic".
Why cant I like this video? This is youtube interfering, so out of order. Well done Roni, you are doing a really good thing by making and posting this video, praise to you.
I love this channel already with a powerful female giving us valuble information helping us grow instead of these modern eomen with tiktok brains feeding us garbage and lust. Keep it up
I'm happy you pointed out the importance of men in the family unit. The heightened success rates... Even single father households fair much better than single mother households, and by no small margin too. It sort of blows my mind that knowing this the courts reward the woman sole custody so often considering what's best for the child is most important. "Feminism" has taught young women to be misandrists; to not trust the people they should probably trust most in the world. Not blindly, of course, but equally at least. *Egalitarianism* is the real goal, it is not biased like "feminism". That said, we are absolutely biologically different in a myriad of way due to evolution and we need to acknowledge our strengths and weaknesses.
Something that is rarely talked about when it comes to children raised by single mothers is what may happen later when those mums become empty nesters. Some (not all) will struggle or resent seeing their children in relationships or start their own complete families which they didn't have. Those that clash with their sons wives or compete with their daughters for the same high value men. This archetype of single mum empty nester is going to drastically increase in numbers soon since many are turning to single motherhood by choice saying they don't need men or fathers for their children. Already seeing it now with Gen X becoming grand parents.
3 Minutes into the video I got stuck on the thought that there is a beautiful parallel to the Movie Scene in "The Life of Brian" in which the Rebels contemplate: "What did the Romans ever do for us?". Quite hilarious how much worth is hidden in that movie for all audiences and times :D
Gosh, a lot of people need to see this. As the parent of a teenage young man, im very aware of the anti male sentiment that is everywhere, especially in the media and education. It needs a woman to highlight it, as if a man said what was in this video he'd be labelled some Andrew Tate incel.
Have you seen this podcast? th-cam.com/video/Dn7-d04m664/w-d-xo.htmlsi=RuG2c60EWyCNp0p2 It’s about the worth of fathers. Especially the quote “Maybe you don’t need that man, but your children définitely do need that man!” really resonated with me.
I need to get my self together to become a better father to my children and deal with my troubled marital relationship. I think long term emotional damage needs to be shaken off and real character needs to come out.
Society need strong men and we men, need more women like you.
fool, all we need to do is taking their rights away
very well said
Wise words my friend!
bingo
Hatred of men is hatred of half of humanity. The half that brought it civilization.
Half that created everything.
As a woman I say thanks to all the men who built and sustain our world. I don’t hate men I just dislike weak men. We need strong men. Good times create weak men hard times create strong men. If we went back to some hard times both women and men will reboot to their roles. I’m not part of the let’s hate men culture.
The men in my life are my life. Today's young women seem immature and self-centered. Instead of learning and healing after a betrayal, they remain stuck in bitterness and hate. It's time to grow up, ladies.
U have cucks not men
And many of them haven't even experienced a direct betrayal (or oppression or violence etc), however they're angry on other people's behalf and stay stuck in that anger.
@@Ta-da32 That is wild to me.
Don't be too hard on today's young women. It's hard for them to know who to trust and why with all the noise out there, and plenty of poor role models. Be kind.

@@big_red_machine3547true but the truth goes much deeper.
I'm a 30-year-old black American. My father was never there for me a stepfather was authoritarian abusive My mother was a bit narcissistic and most of my family grew up in the ghetto. The last 15 or so years of my life I've basically pissed away every opportunity I have had and now I'm busting my ass working at a tire shop for $15 an hour and also taking out people's trash at night for about 2 to 3 hours.
I needed to hear this I've never been suicidal but I have gone hollow once or twice and definitely had anger issues. I don't have anybody to teach me how to be a man so I have to figure it out by reading books and meditating. I can honestly say to hear that people appreciate the work I do not only feels me with a deep joy but also a deep sadness that stems from a fear that I won't be anything more than the average Joe. I'm getting there it's just really hard I try not to complain but nobody sees you fighting demons in your head.
Of course, people like you run this country, and you are appreciated! I think the best people I know are "Average Joe's."
It's a LONG road back from having an abusive (step)father/authority figure ... decades, a lifetime; you're not alone in that. Extreme abuse WILL rewire your brain, facilitating adult depression; counseling cannot reverse the neurological burn-in of abuse. When you notice an impending depressive cycle, immediately reduce your temporal window to the here and now - accomplish something (even if small), mark things off your ToDo list, acknowledge the accomplishments. Life is about defying entropy - be defiant!

Try the book - "The Rational Male" By Rollo Tomassi. There is no replacement for a father for 15 years, but it's a step in the right direction in terms of advice and hard truths you need to hear.
There is honor in hard work. There is honor in dedication. Your value comes from your heavenly Father. not "being someone". He wants you to be the man He intends you to be.
@@paratracker thank you I will give that a watch. For a long time I've never accepted the concept of God having two terrible fathers I didn't want to have a third lol. But here recently I've been studying philosophy and religion and it's definitely improving my outlook on life.
Happy to see women speaking on this Roni.
Your delivery is great.
Roni is great on delivery right?
Thank you for talking about this issue!
My father has been critical to my development. He guided me away from stupid choices and towards choices that would help me thrive.
Even with a fantastic father, feminism and having a devouring mother has lead me to not develop my masculinity to the level it should be at.
It’s awesome that you’re now doing something about it. Keep it up 👍
well knowing the problem is half the solution. now use your manly spirit to chase the darkness hiding in your closet away.
It's up to you to pull your socks up and get on with "healing" yourself. Stop the blaming and start taking responsibility for your current and future behaviour.
Don't worry i became a man early. But idiots ruined it. You can always improve you towards becoming a man.
When I was a kid my father (tough old school guy) would have tea parties with my younger sister. His hands were so big he could barely hold the little cups. He taught me how to be a man. If it weren't for him I wouldn't be in a good place in life. Thanks dad.
That reminds me of my dad. My dad was huge, and he wasn't fat. His hands and fingers were gigantic, and my friends were afraid of him. But he was always kind, calm, and gentle with my mom and I and my 2 sisters.
It sad but many of my daughters friends don't have dad's in their lives. I give my daughters advice for their friends even though they are scared of me. They give it to them as if it's their advice but these poor children need it.
@@brandonmusick77 did u end up being huge too?
A Man:
Is swift as the Coursing River
Has the force of a great typhoon
Has the strength of a raging fire
Is mysterious as the dark side of the moon
Is this the Mulan military training song?
Huuah!! ✊🏾
so incredibly dehumanizing
its so disgusting watching those clips...
and then you see the broadcasted propaganda and it all makes sense.
thank you for this video. you are a wonderful woman.
I'm 35, my wife,34. We have 3 girls and two boys. I have to say, thank you for this video. As you said, men need encouragement and you are a very positive voice. You rock!
Thank you sooooo much for this! I am a retired body guard and I get calls from elderly friends to go to the store with them because I still keep up my skills and keep them safe!
Where are you living?! Looks like a scary place if going for a shopping require a body guard!
Thank you. We appreciate you. ❤
It’s tough sometimes hearing even my own family having such a negative attitude towards normal masculine traits. Objectivity, logic, constructive criticism….
This video deserves waaaaay more views.
Roni, your knowledge and your presentation are awesome, so young and so Knowledgeable. Thanks.
Btw, many male immigrants are way more masculine than western feminized men.
11:20 this is exactly what I've been saying! I myself was raised by a single mother that kept me away from any healthy masculine role models and now I'm trying to figure out how to rebuild the foundation of my masculinity and it is so incredibly difficult. Hopefully if I do succeed I hope to provide other adult boys with help to rebuild themselves as well as promoting a healthier attachment style.
You'll make it, you'll figure it out. And you'll be helpfull
Dude, I had 0 masculine role models. Not even my father. You will figure it out on your own by force seeing how society treats you. You will manage. No need to over complicate.
I'm 43 today, spending my birthday watching her videos. My father was abusive to my mother but died when I was only 2. I've only recently in the past few years begun to delve into what effect all of this has had in my life today.
She has so many videos that hit me deep. I'm trying to break the cycles of both sides of my lineage and these videos are giving me a lot to explore.
"we're PARTNERS! we're equal! he's my best friend!"
r word hangers-on
Wow, after soo many years. I am starting to hearing more an more woman supporting man. Why, because the world would stop functioning without men. How did all of this issue been pushed under the rug.
Because people can't say sorry anymore...
Sure. We need non feminist women, that are loving and caring, and don't use victim card each time they want to have something, or just for sadistic fun.
thanks, I needed to hear that!
I definitely needed this message. How are you so wise? Courageous to make great points without pointing at other's faults. Thanks so much!
I'm approaching 72 years of age. I grew up from the age of 10 without a father as did my siblings. The lack of a father's love and guidance nearly led to my death multiple times as I struggled to find my way through life alone. I was a masculine boy with an overabundance of older females in my life but virtually no male influence. The result was that the woldview I developed was skewed in a female direction though I was heterosexual. The end result was that I never succeeded in my personal life because female worldview is maladaptive in a young male. I became a "nice guy", but we all know what happens to "nice guys". By my late twenties, I realized I would never marry or have children, so I stopped trying in my personal life and resigned myself to being a "loser". I decided to pursue a career instead and I succeeded in becoming a professional with a six figure income but by the time I got to that point, the desirable women were far younger than me. I wound up living my life alone with my career and my money but no one to share it with. I retired early and for the last decade have studied the plight of fatherless children especially boys. Thanks for this excellent summary of this timely topic.
I am grateful that. Despite being divorced, my mother made sure we had time with my dad. Even she knew the importance of this. Have fun trying to convince the third way feminist of these actual truths
This is a great video. I grew up with an amazing mother but barely knowing my dad and although i turned out alright, i am very well aware of all the things the boys with dads in their lives just understood or "got" witbout learning the hard way. This is hard to quantify but i have found theres a certain kind of calmness and certainty that my friends who grew up with confident fathers have that i really had to learn myself thru trial and error, meditation and Journaling, and ultimately pain and heartbreak. I wouldnt necessarily change anything cause i do love my life, but everything you said in this video is 100% right as far as im concerned
I am a father, grandfather, greatgrandfather. That had to learn how to be a man. I have to give credit to my uncles and my friends that had a father in their homes. It does make a difference on who you gravitate to as a child growing up. Thank God I grew up in a time when their were more fathers in the homes.
This is a great video, because youngmen need to know, they are needed and valuable in todays society.
Thanks for this video, younglady. ❤
As a woman single motherhood will never be a win in my book. I grew up in a single mother household I said never would be me. I was so ashamed to say my siblings had different dads and mom wasn’t married with all the kids she had. It takes two to make a kid it takes two to raise a child. We need strong men to make a come back. Men be men and the right woman will find you. I know the bad women seem to out-weight the good ones but we are out there.
I love all you said in this video.
Thanks for sharing this much needed truth, we need a few million more like you!
Great video, and great job! The future of my 15 year old son needs more of this kind of content, well done young lady, you’re awesome.
Unbelieveable.... Greetz from Germany
You mentioned that the argument some make about men no longer being necessary because we no longer need hunters and warriors is erroneous, and I agree. What needs to be pointed out is that a large number of women have traded in men and the efforts necessary to maintain a relationship with one for the relatively low-effort reliance on government for needs and protections. The government, an entity that thrives on having more to do and a knack for ends justifying means, are more than happy to take the place of men, and assist in the demonizing of men, since the men cannot escape the influence of the government.
I am the second of 8 kids to a single mother, who was herself the eldest of three to a single mother. I struggled a lot in my teens and early 20's (and still do somewhat today) with what my role is as a male short of being of the most service to the woman who is in charge of a given situation. I knew more at 18 how to care for young children than anyone else I knew that was my age. Getting married to a blessedly kind woman and having two sons has helped me immensely because it gave me the drive to figure things out like I naturally tend to, but with respect to my role and how I choose to teach my sons. My wife speaks very positively of masculinity to my sons, and shows them she values me, and I in turn demonstrate to them the way a man ought to treat a caring woman. I also make it transparent that, for as happy and positive a relationship my wife and I have, we are still human and have disagreements.
Before this video, I watched your video on toxic femininity. While I have to say that telling men they aren't toxic and pointing out to women that they can be is going to rub some people wrong, I zeroed in on your take about women's conflict methods: Keep ambition disguised and use egalitarian language to quietly pocket more, gather social support to guide from the rear against the subject of their ire, and only resorting to physical and verbal aggression when nothing else works. I compared this to the methodologies of the socio-political sphere, and I noticed similarities with a particular collection of individuals. Said collection of individuals has not taken it well that now two female candidates for the highest office were not elected, and they cite (among other things) that it is a gendered issue while declining to address the way they belittle half of the population every minute of every day.
For me to be a good man, there is an expectation on me to place myself in physical harm for the protection of a woman or child from a man. Indeed, if I am not protecting a woman's or child's physical, mental, and emotional well-being from the actions of any man, I am not a good man. We know this intrinsically, and then it is preached to us from the moment we can understand a language. What counts as 'harm' keeps changing, but that is a different subject. When I see that one woman literally decapitated her male partner and threw his head in a public trash can, and another slipped five times the lethal dose of fentanyl into a Moscow Mule she made her husband before going on to write a children's book about dealing with the grief of suddenly losing a husband and father, I am reminded that women and men are equal - capable of equal good and equal evil. So, I asked the question of "if the measure of a Good Man is to protect all women and children from all men, regardless of reason, does that make the litmus of a Good Woman the sort that likewise protects all men and children from all women, regardless of reason? But, after watching the Toxic Femininity video, I now understand why it isn't: the toxically feminine have more power and influence than the positively feminine. For the good women to come to the defense of men that are being abused and torn down by a system of the government brought in to enforce the will of the Mean Girls (who also sometimes abuse and tear down men by themselves!) borders on suicide. Good women have to work according to the first principle of keeping their ambitions quiet to stand a chance of being able to help at all long-term.
Thank you for your content. It's given me a lot to consider. Thank you also for your plea to men that they not give up, because it is happening.
Excellently worded, not many males will grasp the subtlety though. Its truly insidious how much feminazis have infiltrated and almost destroyed our society!
Repeal the 19th immediately, and bring back force doctrine here like most none western countries use!
TH-cam algorithms are working! Thank you for posting! Keep it up!
I have a solution: Stay away from people who are telling you are toxic!
Just a german opinion.
I agree with this. Not everyone is going to like you, but who cares? Surround yourself with good quality people and stop giving a damn about the naysayers.
Í agree, i love German fólk
Coming from a spainard❤️ 🇪🇸🤝🏻🇩🇪 ❤️
A great and much needed talk. Thank you. ❤
wow this channel is a gold mine and I just discovered it!
You are 100% right on this, men need rites of passage through life (graduation, marriage, go to war, enter a profession)
without them it just becomes a purposeless daily grind
Love your insights Roni.
Thank you Roni. Every Man and Boy needs to hear this message of how valuable and needed they all are.
Love and respect, from a Man.
I’ve been struggling finding my foothold as a man for 7 years now.
Thank you for your words of wisdom and inspiration to find my calling, to contribute to my family and society❤
Loving your videos. It's refreshing to see this take coming from a woman. I'll note that its important for women who see things this way to start confronting the ignorant women on this issue. Especially mothers of young boys, if they expect their boys to get a fair shake in the world.
You get the society you deserve, and by that I mean you get the society you build.
There was a report I read years ago about how long it would take to turn men into soldiers. 80%, assuming they volunteered and not conscripts, could become soldiers in 12 to 16 weeks. Not great soldiers but good enough.
I know young men, that core of iron is still in 80% of them. Most of them could be turned into strong men in about 12 weeks with some decent mentorship. The trouble is we don't have a society that wants to invest 12 weeks into doing so. Quite the opposite in fact.
So we have the society we deserve
[Edit: Most military training is usually based around three or four 16 week courses for this reason, 4 weeks for theory and 12 weeks for building competency]
God bless you! Thank you for your positive message about men. You are also spot on about the evolutionary roles of men & women. Complementary.. biggest problem with lack of fatherhood is the inequality in family courts
A very refreshing perspective of men from a well-educated and open-minded lady. Thank you for this great video. As a man, it was really enjoyable watching this.
There is so much wisdom here. Thank you, Roni.
This video has been incredibly helpful, thank you so much. It’s ironic to see your subscriber count so low, while those loud proponents of feminism on TH-cam have millions of subscribers and views. Although I can’t donate, I wanted to leave a comment to show my support. I’ve taken down many of your quotes from this video, and I often go back to them. They’ve been truly insightful for my personal growth and have given me a new perspective on how to become a better man and a future father. I really hope you will produce more content on men's development, especially on the meaningful aspects of masculinity in traditional cultures. Thank you again.
This is heavy Wisdom.
excellent. I have a 15 year old son and your words are what I've learned in my life. You have crystalized the male experience and its necessity. My son needs to find his way of supporting a family. I have done this, and it's his turn now. I want him to be free to explore the world and himself as learns to be a man. I want him to keep his vision of his future and don't stay from it. Don't let any woman distract him like what happened to me. He has his mission in life.
Thank you sooo much for this video, i haven't commented under any video in the past 5 years but i wanted to show my gratitude not only because you've helped me understand my current situation/experiences in my life right now and validate my feelings, but you have helped motivate me and gave me a push moving forward, you also reminded me that there are wonderful, honest and genuinely kind woman out there like you, i have also grown up without a father so this video resonated me on an even deeper level. You have all my respect, i seriously cannot thank you enough.
Thanks so much for the reminder, sometimes one forgets to appreciate the nature and attributes of being a man.
You are doing a great job challenging the dominant narrative of today! I also left academia for similar reasons--the nonsense peddled as truth
Excellent video. You touched on so many of the thoughts I've been having for a long time. I truly hope that both men and women in the Western world can wake up and realize the ebb and flow nature of the two halves.
God bless you and keep you in your vital work Ms. Fouks!
Great film. Forwarded to my 15 year old lad!
For myself, I never had a father in the home. I now have two boys that I'm working to grow into men, one 14 and the other about to be 9. I remember reading books like Wild at Heart by John Eldredge, which taught me a lot of what it means to be a man, but I often feel more like Dax's song "To Be A Man" is really hitting the pulse of what I experience. The question in my heart over how to bring these two young amazing boys into a world of men, when often I question whether or not I've 'achieved' that lofty title of being a real man is at the core of my being. While I look at my life, and see that I'm willing to do anything to keep my family going, including working multiple jobs to make sure that I've got food on the table. My goal is to prepare them for what real life is like, and I'm appreciative of this video specifically because it does remind me to raise my two young men to have a true aim in life, and that they have the strength it takes to achieve those ends. We hear so much about the Toxic Masculinity, which with many tends to mean all masculinity for the internet world. But as Eldredge said in Wild at Heart, it was the strength of young men who have shielded others with their own bodies to save their lives even at the cost of their own in the horrible Columbine shooting. It was the strength of men who stopped the horrible regimes of terror in WW2, and it was the strength of men who have continually put themselves in harms way in order to save others.
I really enjoyed this video and I agree 99% with everything you have said here. However, there’s one thing I must take exception with. In your videos there is an almost ubiquitous thread running through them. That thread is the idea of evolutionary pressure improving on human biological systems. Humanistic evolution is irrational in every sense of the word. The proper term to use would be adaptation. Complex biological nature does not arise from chance mutations. Beneficial mutations are extremely rare while deleterious mutations are very common. It doesn’t matter how many billions of mud puddles are being struck with lightning bolts, the result is never life. Try taking those odds to the roulette table in Las Vegas. The building blocks that are formed are always of the wrong chirality. It requires thought to arrange the building blocks with the right form of charity. Complex structures require thought. Thought comes from the mind. Order requires the Logos or thought. Through thought, the Logos transforms chaos into order or cosmos. Adaptation requires programming. Mindless evolution does not have the ability to code. When the creator fashioned the first humans, they were completely human and instilled with all the genetic programming and complex DNA required to adapt to any environment needed for their survival. This is all done with thoughtful, rational coding. Scientists have only begun to scratch the surface of this code. What was once thought of as junk DNA turns out to be very important. And I will venture to say that this coding structure goes all the way down to the quantum level in ways we have not begun to imagine. Again, rational code is a language. Language requires thought. Chaos cannot create order! That is completely irrational. Only a highly intelligent mind is capable of language and code. Genetics are instilled with very sophisticated language programs that are designed with the sole purpose of improving the biological system to survive in its environment. It doesn’t matter how many brilliant Scientists claim to be evolutionary biologists. None of this arises by chance or magical serendipity. Once again that is completely irrational. It is the Lagos or the mind that brings order out of chaos. It did not evolve. It was created by a mind to be perfectly complete from the very beginning.
Men built this world with blood sweat and tears, AKA back breaking hard effort that frankly wasn't good for out overall wellbeing...
Yet the society we created has betrayed us; and left us with NOTHING... why would we make that mistake again???
We wouldn't...
The Ghosts of good men:
Zeus in the film "Wrath of the Titans" warned Persius that with the the death of the gods, all their works would come undone - all of it. This is the same scenario that is playing out in the West, with the tearing down and vilification of authentic masculinity. Feminist in their paronoid delusions thought by crushing masculinity, aka the patriarchy, they would be able build their perfect plastic Barbie world in it's place. What they failed to grasp is that with the death of Heroic Masculine Purpose, the age of the villain would begin - a glorious new age in which the strong take what they want by any means, and the devil smiles down on us all.
Thank you for your encouraging words. I see so many of my friends live in demoralizing relationships where they are treated so poorly. It is hard to watch. For myself I did not marry my son's mother for this reason. Though we are better friends and I have a great relationship with my son I saw where the relationship was headed and I couldn't live that way. I want to be a good man and a upright example to others especially my son. I hope I can persevere in these dark times and be a light. Thanks again.
crime against society was my thought exactly.
What a beautiful video. Thank you.
Amazing video, everything much needed for us to listen to nowadays
Thank you Roni. Finally someone sane out there. You touched a nerve there on rites of passages. I believe it’s what’s missing in our western societies, and it’s what explain 40 years old teens. So I created my own rite of passage ;)
I totally agree. Protect her at all cost. Thank you so much.
I am glad to find your channel, finally somebody who speack the truth about the social dynamics, and even a woman. Most women are busy speakcking the ideologic narrative of feminisme, and is rare to find a pragmatic and realistic woman in todays world. Thanks
I’m a 68 yo male and have seen a lot, groups of men hating ALL women and groups of women hating ALL men. This is a direct result of their poor relationship decisions. The key is choosing carefully who you want to procreate with. I have never felt a reason to talk to my sons much about women. My actions spoke much louder than any words I could say. The key to a successful, loving and long lasting relationship is shared views of the world. It takes time to know yourself and a potential partner.
I have very mixed feelings about this video. As a NON-christian American man, while I do tend to fall into the more heteronormative societal role, I don't go for imposing gender roles on people, nor any of the bs machismo my generation x had to put up with. Well I do agree with you that men need to be able to talk about men issues without being demonized and asked, "when did you start hating women!?" I could definitely live without all the christian propaganda and faith-based bs either. I agree that boys need good strong male role models, but they don't have to be pillars of the church in order to be that. Nor do they even need to be religious at all. Religion doesn't make a man, a man makes a man, and most importantly a man makes himself, but he could use help getting there.
This was a good video fr. I never bought into the whole "toxic masculinity" bs to begin with. I have too much that I'm responsible for. Daughters that i want the best for. Taking care of my parents before they passed. Taking care of my grandmother now. I have a physical job that requires strength and intelligence to do and i don't care what anyone thinks of me as long as my family is taken care of. But growing up without my dad for most of my childhood (until i was 16) did its damage. Ive been depressed coped with drugs and alcohol dropped out of school and done time locked up. Id say i didnt "become a man" until i was around 27-28. I was always in my children's lives as much as i could be. I hope I've done right by them. I guess i have cause I've overheard my almost 16 year old telling her friends that she has the best dad lol. Gotta take the complements whete you can get them as a man. Nobody ever tells us "good job" or "youre doing good" but i really dont care tbh. I kinda prefer it that way. Seeing my kids confused cause as girls they didnt understand how i could go to funerals and not show much emotion at all. But at the same time they needed me to not. They needed that stoicism. But it is good that women are coming out saying that being masculine is a good thing. I wouldn't have changed for psychologists or strange women complaining online. But its still nice knowing some women understand and appreciate us for the thankless bs we have to deal with in silence cause if we complain lol. So thank you and thank all the women like you. We men do appreciate it even if we dont show it
My understanding is that undergraduate psychology courses are dominated by female students. I imagine this has an effect on the slant and focus of published papers in the subject.
That was absolutely an amazing video, speaking of strong woman, I see one right in front of me now. Great job on this one Roni!
Who exactly is teaching young men that masculinity is toxic? Could it be feminism and the vast majority of women? In such a society, developing masculine virtues for oneself and not anyone else is critical.
You need to understand women and the legal system that they created has the primary objective of exploiting your virtues. Not every woman will use the legal system as a weapon, but every single woman can. As they say, you never truly know a woman until you meet her in divorce court. It is super easy for a woman to let her lawyer exploit you while she keeps her hands clean. It is super easy for a woman to take your children from you. A single "I feel afraid of him" is all it takes.
Doubt that they are a vast majority, they are a minority, but very loud on social media, also often work in education system and media. Thats why there is such polarization, the innert majority is getting fed up with the nonsense of that minority. Also they have a backwards definition of toxic masculinity - what somebody originaly meant by it is like domestic violence type of some crazy macho, but wokies managed to take that and upgrade to some crazy image that any sign of masculinity is "toxic".
GOD BLESS YOU
Roni, this video was excellent and inspiring. Have you ever considered speaking with Rudyard Lynch about this topic?
Why cant I like this video? This is youtube interfering, so out of order. Well done Roni, you are doing a really good thing by making and posting this video, praise to you.
I love this channel already with a powerful female giving us valuble information helping us grow instead of these modern eomen with tiktok brains feeding us garbage and lust. Keep it up
It has come to the point where I like the video and THEN watch it. Roni knows her stuff 🔥
Thank you for sharing a positive view on men.
Just discovered your channel this week. Really good content. I hope your channel grows a lot
I'm happy you pointed out the importance of men in the family unit. The heightened success rates...
Even single father households fair much better than single mother households, and by no small margin too. It sort of blows my mind that knowing this the courts reward the woman sole custody so often considering what's best for the child is most important.
"Feminism" has taught young women to be misandrists; to not trust the people they should probably trust most in the world. Not blindly, of course, but equally at least. *Egalitarianism* is the real goal, it is not biased like "feminism". That said, we are absolutely biologically different in a myriad of way due to evolution and we need to acknowledge our strengths and weaknesses.
Thank you Roni, I def needed to hear this, thank you 🙏
Great content, thank you for doing this!
you have beautiful eyebrows❤
Please keep going, Keep making content forever.
Thank you
Something that is rarely talked about when it comes to children raised by single mothers is what may happen later when those mums become empty nesters. Some (not all) will struggle or resent seeing their children in relationships or start their own complete families which they didn't have. Those that clash with their sons wives or compete with their daughters for the same high value men. This archetype of single mum empty nester is going to drastically increase in numbers soon since many are turning to single motherhood by choice saying they don't need men or fathers for their children. Already seeing it now with Gen X becoming grand parents.
Well said, Roni!
I really needed to hear this message today 🙏
You are exactly the type of woman men would love to marry. Well done on being so!
We need women like you, Roni.
What a pleasure is to watch and above all listen a beautiful and intelligent women. Thanks for this kind of videos. Amazing work. 😎👍
Roni, the world needs women like you!
I agree with absolutely everything she says,unfortunately I cannot see things changing,it is a very depressing state of affairs now
thank you for your message
crazy time when common sense is no longer common sense
3 Minutes into the video I got stuck on the thought that there is a beautiful parallel to the Movie Scene in "The Life of Brian" in which the Rebels contemplate: "What did the Romans ever do for us?". Quite hilarious how much worth is hidden in that movie for all audiences and times :D
Awesome message. I'm a big fan of Jordan Peterson, Gad Saad, James Lindsay & Johnathan Haidt, They would approve of your message.
Wise words lady!. Thank you by your words.
I really like your commentary and have subscribe to your page. Keep up the good work.
Thank you sister!
I’m so used to not mattering that I didn’t even want to make a comment here.
music to my ears :)
Gosh, a lot of people need to see this. As the parent of a teenage young man, im very aware of the anti male sentiment that is everywhere, especially in the media and education. It needs a woman to highlight it, as if a man said what was in this video he'd be labelled some Andrew Tate incel.
Well said, thank you for having common sense.
Have you seen this podcast? th-cam.com/video/Dn7-d04m664/w-d-xo.htmlsi=RuG2c60EWyCNp0p2
It’s about the worth of fathers. Especially the quote “Maybe you don’t need that man, but your children définitely do need that man!” really resonated with me.
I need to get my self together to become a better father to my children and deal with my troubled marital relationship. I think long term emotional damage needs to be shaken off and real character needs to come out.
