The vast majority of psychologists are female and 10% of all psychiatrists are LGBT. The whole profession is viewed through the lens of women, and many times a feminist perspective, so maybe men’s interests and perspectives are not properly understood or fully considered
Why do you think so many young men want nothing to do with society as it brings them no benefit? Even before my failed Health as a former Mechanical & electrical fabrication engineer everyone made outlandish demands on me which the rewards never justified the effort which I had no benefits but at least I was not disadvantaged beside the endless bureaucratic red tape present today. Labours, concrete layers & rail workers which I was all 3 for a time have no benefits put in working conditions that no one wants to do. Eventually society will collapse like Sparta & the women caused that! Why would warriors defend an elite oligarchy of women let alone the Helots that broke free & did unspeakable things to those women once the warriors abandoned the city for a land were they might be appreciated to gain a fortune-place in life? Feminism has never worked & nor would it ever. Imagine if men did the same as masculinists? They would be laughed out of the room rightfully so but we do not do it to women who are the most privileged of society yet don't even know it! In Victorian Britain the average life span of men was 7 as children were sent down into mines, up into chimneys or into the factories to operate industrial machinery. If they lived to majority often becoming soldiers. Girls were seamstresses, loo, worker or other jobs they could sit on their back sides just as they do know in offices. Being a man that forged metal since infancy with my elders that made his 1st tools at 6 I do not consider women my equal but punters that complain as they take from the labours of men now & before them. When women are sent in the Trench's the same as my elders from my father to the Great & Great Great grand male elders of ww1 & 2 then I will see them as our peers. Mean time I hear many demands & nothing in exchange without any appreciation. Man built society & we can do it again. At this point I will sit back for it all to fall & from the ruins then we men can rebuild it! Men can live with very little. Look at the amount of single men that just have a chair, bed & a tv. Even myself as former survival instructor I can live with nothing though a knife makes matters considerably easier. without men most women could not even nap flint much less forge iron or anything of real consequence from western men! This is not sexism but reality! I'd enjoy a partner i consider my equal but honestly they treated me more like a father or free labour then a partner. 4.5% of only male marriage end in divorce while all women is over 13%. Traditional/unisex =7.5% roughly. Even women don't want to live with women. Food for thought!
For the group of women who claim "men are useless": I am an aircraft mechanic. I am a female. I am outnumbered at least 50:1. In my current role, there are 12 planes a night that require maintenance and paperwork. I cannot do it all by myself. So get your butts out here already and quit complaining. Also, the men I work with are awesome. Hard workers and fun to be around.
worked in the chemical industry , big chemical plants, very few women , we treated them as princesses and those who stuck were once one of them stuffed up , a couple of ten of thousands worth , she was shattered , we sat next to her giving her the usual tech drink of instant coffee she had this wry smile "gosh this hurt" ...we know , been there , now you are an engineers , welcome to the club ! by the way the money was awesome
Women with college degrees are often quick to look down on the plumber, carpenter, electrician who repairs the broken things and almost always questions why he should be able to charge a high hourly rate that far exceeds her earning power. Problem solving skills are not automatically granted by a diploma.
Most modern degrees are also just toilet paper. There is such an inflation of qualifications without anyone actually having any competency that the biggest selling point in landing a job is having evidence of you already having done said job. Add in the massive amount of fake jobs that people do in an office where they just talk all day while 3 people do the work of 50.
It's tragic because those Females have social science degrees which are basically illegitimate due to the woke propaganda in the curriculum and the inability of the female brain to actually acquire knowledge vs just take notes and regurgitate on exams. Those trade certificates indicate alot more merit. Basically tradesmen are higher status than women with degrees but propaganda makes their positions feel reversed.
I have a STEM masters degree and worked in tech. Believe me, the scales are massively tipped in favor of women at that level too. It's not just the working class men. Feminists, their allies and even neutral parties are blind to this. Even when speaking on behalf of men, the condescension is right there. Here, the inference is that men without a college degree are uneducated and cannot handle the information world. There is this overarching assumption that men without college degrees are somehow inferior. Also, what passes for "education" here in the USA is just anti-male indoctrination. I did not hear that addressed at all. I submit that most college degrees in the US are worthless today in terms of the value they provide both the degree holder and society. Feminists worship at the altar of Western secular education. In fact, this discussion here about men was quickly spun into how things impact girls and women. Discussing issues like this with a feminist is useless. They cannot talk about men's issues without immediately including women's issues into it. It's all zero sum for them. Any advantage for a man is immediately deemed as stolen from a woman.
It is the Marxist mentality within feminism. But that's not the case with Hoffsumers. Even though she thinks in terms of women, she understands reality more as a natural order and that harming men is harming women, just as abolitionists claimed that slavery made southern elites poorer than northern elites and harmed society as a whole. , including white people.
Just pointing out... Christina was speaking about men's issues... and speaking pretty well... and it was the GUY who changed the subject to girls and women and social media. Of course, whenever anyone tries to discuss men's issues and problems, it ALWAYS gets redirected to women's problems... and almost always by a woman. That's just SOP for them... zero-sum game.
When I was in school getting my CS degree, we had a guest speaker, a young woman working in SW engineering for Microsoft. One of the things she said was, "we are proud that 20% of our SW engineers are women, but there is still work to do." I pointed out that this is highly problematic, since only 7% of CS majors (at the time) were women, and asked if that meant that they were preferential to women. "Of course not, we are equal opportunity, blah blah blah, cope cope cope", yes they were preferentially hiring women. But there is something else even more insidious going on here. Microsoft, is a big company with deep pockets, so they can offer 10,000 SW engineering jobs to women, starting at 150k+ a year, and of course those women are going to take those jobs and pad Microsoft's demographics. So now what about all the other companies who are being scrutinized through the lens of demographics? A smaller company doesn't have that many openings, and they probably aren't offering boatloads of money, and they really need good talent. But all the good, talented women were hired by Microsoft, Google, Facebook, at crazy rates! So now those other companies are basically forced to hire men, (remember they can't afford low performing engineers) and now Microsoft, Google, and Facebook can turn around and say "Look at how progressive we are, we hire women at 4 times the rate of these other companies, aren't we special!?"
30+ years in biotech, I love reporting to someone with 1/3 of my experience and competency who has no leadership, communication or organizational/planning skills because they have a vagina. Glad I'll be retiring soon. Companies are struggling to produce due to lack of competency.
@@wingsoffreedom3589 Sure, but that's not what identity politics is. Identity politics is the strategic organization of society according to identity characteristics for the purpose of building political coalitions to artificially empower minority group interests to defeat majority group interests within a democracy. Pitting wmn against men lacked the additional dimensions necessary to build identity-based coalitions until other identity groups formed and accumulated political power independently within society.
@@gabeo9474 Can't agree with you. Black women remain among the least wealthy and influential groups. They cannot be blamed for tectonic cultural shifts that have come to us from the top down, from the highest spheres of influence. Lots of things led to identity politics, and the industrial revolution and the pill are probably at the top.
I don’t know about America, however in Australia roughly three times as much is spent on women’s health compared to men’s health. Yet over 90% of deaths and injuries in the workplace are suffered by men. Four times as much is spent on social services and housing for women, yet homeless men outnumber the women by over twenty to one. Yes men have privileges, but the vast majority of men are viewed as of far inferior value compared to women.
"roughly three times as much is spent on women’s health compared to men’s health" Or as feminists call it: *Good and important first steps on the way to total 'equality'.*
What you described is the feminist goal of what they call "equality". btw my previous reply here was censored by yt. Let's see if this one gets censored as well.
If you ask a feminist, every single undesirable job that has few, or no women, does so purely because of sexism. Including construction and sewage diving. If you found a line of work that literally no woman in human history has ever applied for, the answer of why would still be sexism.
I have hope more men get into the work where women are majority - the work of care - like kindergardens, homes for elderly, nurses. I wish men were the ones on parental leave taking care of baby (totally possible today btw) while woman gets to go back to work and doesnt get sacked. And of course, for women to get more into roles such as "undesirable job that has few, or no women".
Women just want to be boss babes, making money while sitting and bossing men on Slack/Teams/Zoom from the comfort of their home while the men are ACTUALLY DOING A JOB. The feminism is the code word for the matriarchy.
⚠️Correction ⚠️: There is no wage Gap. What is referred to as "the wage Gap" it's not controlled for actually equal comparisons. Something called the "controlled wage Gap" explicitly looks at comparisons between both men and women of equal work, experience, education, etc etc... and the controlled wage gap... Doesn't really exist. Uncontrolled wage Gap (which is primarily due to simply not working as many hours): Women earn $0.83 to the dollar a man earns. Controlled wage Gap: Women earn $0.99 cents to the dollar a man earns. (In most, but not all cases it's exactly $1 to $1. In some cases women earn more, but averaged out it's about $0.99 to $1) The gender wage Gap has mostly been political rhetoric, as opposed to the truth.
And then studies were done in some corporations as part of lawsuits based on the pay gap claim. At Google they found that there really was a pay gap: Women outearned men after full stratification. Those studies did not account for actual output btw. People who work in mixed office know that there's another gap in spending time effectively on generating output.
@@sneezyfido you're quite correct. Not just at google, but other places around the country too... When you start pulling apart the actual data overall, larger cities tend to have a wage gap where women earn more, and more rural areas have a wage gap where men earn more. Cumulatively it tends to average out to near/about the same when looking at the averages of the group dynamics.
@@joejoejoejoejoejoe4391 that's correct. But... Laws don't actually stop crime from happening. Also, pay is not a standardized thing (even within the same company let alone across the board in all jobs and careers throughout the US and/or the UK). This means that there's going to be variance there, regardless of what laws may or may not be enacted. But, yes you are correct... There is legal recourse if you have proof that you aren't being paid equitably due to some violations, such as gender. So, if women truly believed that they were being wronged, yes they would/should have legal recourse to redress the issue.
@@joejoejoejoejoejoe4391laws are worthless if not applied and enforced. There may not be a wage gap for the reasons described by certain female advocacy groups but there is an earnings gap.
Something I've noticed is that boys growing up need competition. This is how the male mind encounters and processes his feelings. He will lose more than he wins. His efforts are entirely in his own hands. From this, he learns he must work on himself. Learn to control his outbursts and depression. He obtains grit and becomes humbled in the process. Something the modern day is missing.
So how is this women's problem? Men needing to compete with each other is their business, not ours. We don't care what men do amongst themselves, we care about how they treat us. Women and children are who matter to us.
Feminism is an upper middle class woman issue. As my working class aunt said many years ago, "I had all the equality I could handle, I went to work everyday just like my husband". Poor girls worked, the single daughters and maiden aunts of the middle class started taking the jobs of the poor girls when they left the family homes for city life apartments in the 1920s. "Up to this time girls of the middle classes who had wanted to “do something” had been largely restricted to school-teaching, social-service work, nursing, stenography, and clerical work in business houses. But now they poured out of the schools and colleges into all manner of new occupations. ...... "In 1920 the department store was in the mind of the average college girl a rather bourgeois institution which employed “poor shop girls”; by the end of the decade college girls were standing in line for openings in the misses’ sports-wear department and even selling behind the counter in the hope that some day fortune might smile upon them and make them buyers or stylists." --‘Only Yesterday An Informal History Of The Nineteen Twenties’, Frederick Lewis Allen (1931)
Men have advantage to do harder jobs, because men are 3 times physically strong than women, even smaller men have great physical power.... so they are confident to do theese jobs. but they use this physical advantage to feed their kids. The cosmetic and food industry are advertising the products as the man´s money is infinite.
@@alenaadamkova5322 Backbreaking labour is long gone, most long-distance truckers look like racing sardines, and dragline operators are in air con cabs and similar in most industries. It is the boredom and endless drag that makes most jobs hard. However, anyone can do them these days.
Forcing men to talk about their problems and not DOING ANYTHING to help them is emotional rape. I guarantee TH-cam will filter this comment. F you, youtube mods. F you.
Issues that affect women, society says we need to address it and fix it! When issue effects men, society says men need to fix their own issues! Society is highly gynocentric now, which is why society in the west is quickly deteriorating
@@Conservative_carnivore It is a zero sum game with women. When men do that women see it as a direct threat to them as that takes resources away from them and further victimises them.
The point is that psychology is now 95% women who are graduating and all the stuff they learn is focused on women. They see being male as a disorder to be fixed. And they use techniques that work for women, completely ignoring men being different (Blank Slate theory and the whole thing is a society construct that is learned). While it is clear that men and women process emotions differently, men and women learn differently. And if only men would do it the way women do then that would solve everything (Square peg in round hole). Thus they say men are broken. This is completely wrong, disrespectful and toxic towards men. It has caused massive damage to young boys and men. And there is 100 Billion dollar industry behind this with all these incentives backing it up - focus on women and women first and women are perfect. This is why men have dropped out and left quietly. There is no place for men now other than under the feet of women. More and more men are and will keep leaving the West to where they are valued as people.
This captivating video triggers a flood of painful memories from the end of my 6 year relationship just three months ago. The woman I loved with all my heart chose to walk away, leaving me grappling with an insurmountable sense of loss. Despite my relentless efforts to salvage what we had, I'm left feeling disillusioned and unable to imagine a future without her. Despite my attempts to move on , I'm drawn to express my deep-seated longing for her here.
The struggle to release someone dear to your heart is undeniably arduous. I empathize, having experienced a similar circumstance when my 6 year relationship concluded. Refusing to accept defeat, I pursued every conceivable avenue to reclaim his affection. Eventually, I sought the assistance of a spiritual counselor, whose wisdom and intervention played a pivotal role in reuniting us.
When enough time has gone by you will begin to look forward to life again. She may or may not help you in this, but you can't count on it. After all, she considered you an obstacle to HER happiness, so wake up & smell the coffee....why keep letting her be the obstacle to YOUR happiness!?
@@Sayid-al-Furat the same way women seem to know everything about men - "our opinion is inherently better because we FEEEL THAAAT WAAAAYYY!". What goes around, comes back around, and its unlubed when knocking up her ass.
I've noticed mexican women treat their men way better, compared to how American women treat their men. That's why these Mexican guys are out here they work hard.
That's because it's a collectivized culture and they keep to themselves That's why they have various enclaves across the country and don't interact with the wider society unless needed
Thats because western society put women on a imaginary pedestal like they are special or something. Those women bred and over generations their children and children's children taught young women that they are the center of the universe. Now they are finding out they aren't special and have resentment, the only thing they can do is place blame rather than take accountability. Western women; specifically feminists are a shit show compared to the rest of the world.
I went into a DEI meeting for managers and there was >60% women. The topic was women in leadership and they keep perpetuating the income gap myth. Feminism is not about equality for many women its about more power & $ for themselves. Do you hear any women talking about representation in the military, in sewage systems, in construction, in oil fields, in mining?
I was threatened with DEI training as a lead... I said I'd get thrown out of the training cause I'd prove them all wrong. I asked the panel of people deciding my fate of insubordination, How many of the women at the meeting wanted to rebuild a 70 year old gearbox with me. None answered. I asked how many of the men (half were engineers). Needless to say I got promoted to supervisor. Being the guy that NO one wants his responsibilities has its merits.
I spent 8 years in the oilfield after a heart attack. 99 % men who were braving cold and danger to make America energy independent. I absolutely adore women. I don’t expect women to do dangerous back breaking labor. But I do ask for respect….. Woman and men are a ying yang thing. And she is right…. We are in this together.
The trouble is the women do not adore men - many despise us - most of all the feminists - who strangely also suffer from some form of male envy. If they cared about men they would care about male suicide, the poor performance of boys in school etc. The feminists have trained women to look at men as oppressors and sexual predators - whilst meanwhile it is the women who are racking up body counts like crazy. Feminism is the ultimate evil - destroying relationships between men and women, which also destroys families, morals and ultimately society.
You are so accurate. Women see male celebrities, CEOs and athletes and think all men lives those very same lives and treat others like peasants. As the saying goes "When you're accustomed to privilege, equality feels like oppression." Most men live thankless lives and all they ask for his recognition of their existence.
If they wish to leave their role and do men's traditional jobs, I respect that 100%. ...When they are held to the same standards of accountability and societal expectations that we were/are filling that role.
When a majority of western women demand materialistic lifestyles and aren't satisfied by the salary of brick layers, electricians, fire fighters, oil rig workers, welders, carpenters, roofers, engineers they're only resulting in women putting themselves in harems with top percentage men.
@@TheKarlslokBecause it's obvious fact. Anybody that needs this expanded upon is severely mired in modern delusion and likely beyond any sort of help.
Agree MD6886. No amount of propaganda or shaming, or Government indoctrination can change the reality of creation and the profound differences between the sexes. It used to be that men protected women from making bad decision made based on their every changing emotions. Women would protect men and motivate men in ways nothing else could. But we lost site of that.
at this point I really do not know what "burden" women have. A woman can do whatever she wants, if she works, is ok, if she doesn't it's also ok, if she studies is ok, if she doesn't or does not use the investment put on her education, is ok too. Women have all sort of support and initiative aiming at making their life easier. Men have nothing of those options or support, but it's women who are still complaining. I would think men must raise their demands why higher
Women, like spoiled children, must be free you see. Men however, as adults, must take responsibility of themselves and everybody else (and society)or else they are not "real men" and therefore disqualified as boyfriends, husbands and fathers. Women play the game of life on easy mode, and men on hard mode.
Men are the reason we have society existence outside the few areas that women can contribute to the general societal good. Women work best when their is a structure and not as effective without it.
The "burden" they feel so heavy upon them is the burden of existence. For some reason, the female mind craves for non-existence. No responsibilities, no initiatives, no needing to express wants or stand up for anything other than for show. They will never be happy as long as they're in that mindset because a mind that craves for non-existence craves for the death of all things before admitting to being an active participant in the Universe. I recently saw a meme which explained this in its simplicity. ">want to be perceived but at the same time >being perceived" It sounds crazy but that's one of the key differences I've found there to be between men and women. I wish it wasn't so, but what can you do about That Which Is?

I'm just a random dude from germany and kinda uneducated. Even I know this stuff what the lady is talking about for years. I'm so tired of the same talking points over and over again. Screw that higher position like CEO etc. Imagine that ladies, for men to get this high positions is also very hard. I work in a men dominated field and there is a wage gap between men for the same position, because it depends on experience, negotiation skills and work ethics. Nowadays women are way more privileged than men, yes I said it, everybody and your mama knows it
completely a selfish, self-centered 1st world problem. When the inevitable collapse comes, when no one answers 911, the shelves are bare, the lights won't come on, feminism will instantly disappear like a vapor.
I still don’t see these woman working in mass at oil Riggs and construction sites and I’m not talking about the office work.😂 feminism is just supremacy
Men do all the heavy lifting that keeps America running. We keep the lights on, the toilets flushing and food on the grocery store shelves, just to name a few. If all women went on strike for a week it would be difficult. During the half the year that schools are in session they'd have to close, if it happened during the half the year schools are out of session we'd notice nothing different there. Retail stores would close for the week, hospitals would be in tough shape without nurses, convenience stores and grocery stores would give some men overtime. However, if all men went on strike for a week we'd be back in the stone age in 3 days.
Nobody would be happier to be back in the "Stone Age," than men. They'd be at a level that rewards their social skills. But it'd be a tough descent as we lose all the women surgeons, mathematicians, engineers, pilots, chemists, farmworkers, meatpackers, care workers, journalists, accountants, civil servants, clerics, managers, executives, truck drivers, architects, actors, clothing designers, geologists, oceanographers . . .
With men in charge it the healthcare system, it would deteriorate at first, but we'd make cold clinical choices and then things would improve way faster than before the experiment. As long as people can follow instructions and learn, then we'd do fine.
@@eugenetswong You're mistaken, it wouldn't deteriorate at first, it would get easier. Women use the majority of healthcare, so you'd free up a lot of manpower to fill in for the women that aren't present. It's something interesting.
I can’t imagine raising kids in this day and age. I’d subtly have to remind any son that he’s not crap and any daughter that she’s not the best thing since sliced bread. The guest isn’t wrong about social media’s outsized impact on girls, though. It takes the “normal” toxicity of female groups from a generation ago and multiplies it by 10.
Its not that it effects women more; its that (a) women are more vocal in a society that protects women and (b) men and boys *dont* speak about our problems because in most cases (and through experience) we arent listened to or we are ignored. Psychology needs to treat boys like boys and not like 'broken girls'
Men have more variance, women are more towards the middle. There are more extremely smart men, and more extremely dumb men, etc. Feminism only focuses on the absolute top, but it could also be framed that women are privileged because they make up waaaay less of the bottom. Who’s “privileged” depends on if you want to focus on the top or the bottom.
I don't know... Even the Dumbest guys I know, Know that their oil needs changed in their cars. I know that's not really an argument due to sample size of *People I know*.
Because women advocate for women. I've found that men advocate for men to continue abusing women. From pigs, to lawyers, to judges, to marriage counselors etc etc. wife abuse is legal and encouraged by the men in power 🤬😭😭😭oh, and let me add, preachers!! These 'men of God'. 🥴 Gotta submit and obey to that wife abuse!! God help and protect women in this patriarchal S*** hole 🤬🇺🇸
A central fallacy of her idea of education and literacy is that neither the K-12 nor post-secondary systems have been providing either for the last 25-30 years. Increasingly, the defining characteristic of skilled work rotated around Technical Certificates and Industry Certification Tests that, overwhelmingly, do not favor traditional education. The reason for this is because industries have bore witness to the complete failure of traditional education institutions and now *_DEMAND_* certifications to validate basic competencies and they don't really care what the background that led to having those certifications.
Facts, we have a tech college drop out that has proven himself to be invaluable in coding proprietary software for us and much better for us then a few others with tried out that went to some big name colleges.
Yes and degrees give you nothing but debts. But this is a whole different issue. Alot of women don't pursue anything with their degrees. But that's besides the point... Like you say most people who generally get degrees have to take shit jobs because their degrees over qualify them for jobs, and those jobs that match their degree require them to have experience. So they get in the worst debt possible student debt because they cannot even remove it by declaring bankruptcy. Men are failing and women are overachieving in an institution that is increasingly becoming less relevant to the workforce...
The School today is less and less focused on solid intellectual education, generating mastery of discipline, reiterating the civic culture of the constitution, providing essential skills for survival or training specialized labor and increasingly becoming a recruitment system for an army of militants. revolutionaries. Education became sociology of Social Engineering and not something useful from the industrial revolution or pre-modernity. You are not taught anything about intellectual emancipation, individual autonomy or the job market, it is just who you are supposed to hate.
@@1080ilowres Even in fields the degree is mandatory, things are bad. Perfect example, female Medical Doctors. In general don't work as many hours as men and after having children most don't go back to work full time. It's gotten so bad that states are changing rules to allow for PAs and Nurse Practitioners to fill in since those fields are becoming male dominated.
Hate is the end result of discrimination, even if it's meant to correct previous discrimination. We must stop discrimination of all kinds. DEI is just "revenge" for past injustices and revenge never ends.
Yes, and moreover when you punish the sons for the sins of their fathers you remove all reason for people to improve who they are. If you're guilty whether you steal or not, at some point, you understand the game is rigged against you and you only hurt yourself by not being the monster you are constantly punished as. In this case not even the fathers, it's the great, great, great grandfathers (maybe, we're not really sure who was bad but they look a little like you kind of) . It's wildly regressive and the outcome is predictably very negative and increases things like actual racism as a primary effect.
Exactly... it's invisible to those who have ALWAYS had it. But it's removal is not... why else do you think men are in such an uproar right now. They have lost some of their privilege and they are quite literally throwing a temper tantrum in response. All while watching a sex trafficking victim be abused online, sitting in their underwear, covered in cheeto dust, in their mommy's basement! Refusing to work for their own keep let alone their families. Yet those same "men" want the credit for the world women have created. Gee I wonder why women have decided to dump men...
It's not invisible to everyone who has it... but it's also not something to be ashamed of... its just something to be aware of. I do think "shaming" people for it is counter-productive. It's also counter-productive to falsely assign privilege to entire demographics. Zip code matters far more than skin color.
Critical Epistemology is just academic cynicism. This phrase about privilege is just a gag phrase, a battle cry that everyone with the slightest sense knows is false. Louis XIV, a person with privileges, was fully aware of them and abused them. The White Beggar is not rich only because he is blind to his inherent privileges and must feel guilty about them for the conclusion of this cynical and authoritarian axiom.
There's really nothing we can do at this point. This whole boy crisis has been building for decades at this point. Unless something radical happens like a new deal scenario or a sudden mass education opportunity for all the young men or boys that have fallen behind (id say purposely sabatoged by the system) then things will continue to get worse
I have another theory. Men falling behind, we being miserable, is actually profitable. And it's happening worldwide. Especially in countries considered part of the third world, which is where I live. Millenials and older generations of men naturally excel on anything they propose to do. We are experts on tech, construction, anything that lifts a country, we are there. This crisis intending to make us miserable, will leave us only with our jobs. No sons, no wife, no friends. By severing us more and more from community, the only thing left is work to death. I know I will never retire, own a house, or anything like that. No one will ever look after us, and those who say that will, are lying. Most of the illegal imigrants worldwide are young and single men. They do it because they have nothing else to lose. We are all in a bottomless pit.
Thats not a thing tbh. Just because guys don't go to college to learn some useless skill at the same rate as women do does not make them uneducated. What matters more is to actually restructure the education system to be able to function again like it did in the past. Stop all the "no kid left behind" and "zero tolerance" stuff and actually do whats best for everyone. Sort the kids by learn speed so that the smart ones can blaze ahead while the ones that need more help can get enough time. Teach boys and girls according to how their gender learns best instead of forcing everyone into the girls class. Education as it stands is absolutely useless, it gets you your basic skills but then your best bet is to get out and learn a practical skill while acquiring job experience and connections.
Only way to solve is having boys schools separate from girls. Then, whatever the resources would focus on boys. In mixed schools, most resources sway towards girls and boys get the bread crumbs.
As I watch this enthralling video, it resurrects the painful memories of my recent breakup-a relationship of three years that ended just two months ago. The Man who meant everything to me decided to leave, plunging me into a vortex of heartache. Despite my desperate attempts to reconcile, I find myself trapped in a cycle of frustration and longing, unable to envision a life without him . Despite my efforts to move forward , I find solace in expressing my lingering affection for him here .
Letting go of someone you love deeply presents a formidable challenge. I faced a comparable ordeal when my 6 year relationship ended. Refusing to succumb to despair, I relentlessly pursued avenues to reconcile with him. Ultimately, I sought solace and guidance from a spiritual counselor, whose intervention proved instrumental in restoring our connection.
"Educated" women often look down on the plumber, the carpenter, the electrician, the HVAC repairman and the I.T. professional. They are also VERY quick to call on such men as soon as something needs to be repaired in order to keep their lives cushy and comfortable.
What are we really trying to achieve here? We know men and women are different, so "equality", how? Make men into women, or women into men? And we know women marry up, so if we're all equal, who are the women going to have babies with? Which is an important point if you want a functioning society. The whole thing is plain poison.
Society: the Bible is still sexist though... Pretty sure society isn't actually listening to what this women was saying. People hear about the gender differences but they forget to challenge their assumptions about the world based on the idea that man and women are the same. Not a fan of how Rome treated women, but at least they knew what a women is. Which is far better then how our culture is treating people.
to be honest, she is basically ignoring men too. Even in this video she primarily discusses them as a platform to talk about women or girls. "School is failing males, so we made or more feelings based (which does not appeal to men AT ALL), and we found that females really prospered." HUH? "Men work all the hard manual labor jobs that keep society running." "OK... tell us more about that." "No." "If men and boys are in trouble..." "Yes? YES?!" "Then women are too." 🤦
Yes, they ignore the failures of prominent women - only men are horrible people - if women run businesses and government everything will be wonderful. Only we are finding it is a tyranny of DEI hires.
No one is hindering woman from anything! The government forces companies to hire woman through affirmative action. Scholarships cater to woman to such a degree that there was nearly zero for men. Women are promoted to the highest position when they have the least amount of merits.
Government initiatives. Just like dei. Some are working real jobs, majority had it given to them, and made significantly easy for a pay wage that doesn't make sense when compared to all labour jobs.
I remember reading about a few studies that showed that the reason these forever in therapy people never actually get better is because when you sit there and focused on all the woes in life and and problems and your feelings 100% of the time it actually makes you worse. Like duh if all you thought about is how awful everything is all the time, no wonder you can never get past it. Idk why we really need studies for such like “DUHHHH not shit” things, but also if we didn’t all the forever in therapy people would scream “wHaTs YoUr SoUrSe BrO!?!?”
Former psychotherapist here. You are absolutely right. But there is more. Most contemporary psychotherapies are just different styles of bullying; that is, most psychotherapies are just intellectualized ways of bullying. I remember, the day I quite being a psychotherapist was the day where I got reprimanded by my supervisor for getting a client who had been struggling with severe depression free of any depressive symptoms. According to my supervisor, I wasn't supposed to actually help that person.
@@BH-2023that supervisor and any others in that company who behave and do business like that should absolutely be in prison. Good on you for having some decency and refusing to be part of such a disgusting practice
The truth is that religion, community and common sense resolved these problems quickly and healthily. It was effective. Mental Treatment only works for psychosis and dementia (which was the part that our culture had not found a solution for).
I'm a dude and attended elementary school in the USA back in the 1970s. Being forced to "talk about my problems" would have done my troubled self no good whatsoever. Boys are naturally distrustful of adults and their intentions, and experience tells me that making a boy reveal his inner thoughts to a teacher or counselor would be counterproductive and downright traumatic. Some problems are best worked out within one's self, or among friends.
To call what's happening to young men right now, especially in America, perverse is an incomplete description. It's sick and twisted and every parent of a child in America should be feeling, what I can only describe as a fear-filled shame.
The current circumstance is indeed actively creating the activist misogynists of the future. And they could have known that if they bothered to think about men as human beings
I was a welding teacher for years. It was incredibly had to get the kids who graduated to actually get a job in the trade they learned. They know going blue collar will relegate them to a lower social status among their peers.
I think she's right regarding "trauma" and "therapy". Not only can trauma be made worse by talking about it endlessly, but there's good evidence that therapists have often induced trauma where there was none by reshaping their patients' attitude towards their experiences. More generally therapy may be the worst thing that has ever happened to people's mental health.
This is what bothers me the most, it's the assumption that the female norm is the healthy baseline for human behavior and interaction. It's just crazy to me that it take so, so much to allow the thought that men aren't 'repressed', 'out of touch' or 'emotionally immature'; but rather that they have an entirely different internal emotional life and it actually serves them pretty well. Males and females are very different. I had a kid with cancer, these differences were INSANELY useful going through that because my wife and I would never emotionally break down at the same time. One of us was always lucid enough to carry the team through whatever hell that day brought. Even in the aftermath, I was ok, even proud that I had done my best, done my duty and did good as I could by my kid. She had survivor's guilt (they all did, we knew a lot of families that went through it) to a VERY high degree. I think the main reason you have break ups afterwards is because the emotional aftermath is so incredibly different and it's easy to misread the male's general response as uncaring from her point of view. Especially when she's fighting something herself internally that is SO deeply rooted and difficult.
I am kinda old. All we women wanted in 1965 was for women to be able to go to law or med school, or go into professions that were not female oriented, and for all kinds of people to live full and satisfying lives. Crushing the spirits of men, making a world where having a baby is super difficult, and having boys and girls play sports together after puberty was not on the list. Guess where the road of good intentions took us.
You were naive and did not understand the actual feminist agenda. Your generation promoted the things you said you didn't like above. Causes and consequences.
@@mikesteelheartthat’s what my wife asks. She tells me if she could she would LOVE to cook and clean and do laundry and take care of the kids (hopefully soon) and house etc full time instead of the grind. She loves that stuff and homemaking anyway.
Approaching this issue as a sociologist. Answer this question. Why with more and more highly educated women. Why aren't there more women creators. Inventors , designers, founders of new industry. Where is the female, Steve Jobs, Elon Musk, Howard Hughes, Rockefeller, Van Gough , Einstein.
She comes across as someone who's whole philosophy has been discredited that is trying to convince herself some facets of the philosophy can still be saved.
For every 1 woman senator there needs to be 1,000,000 additional woman garbage truck drivers, roofers, welders, truck drivers, auto mechanics, deep sea fishers, construction workers, and conscripted soldiers….to name a few. THAT is equality.
As a blue collar transsexual man I am so grateful that you’ve posted this. I’ve lived as a woman and as a man and the difference is that men are more hierarchical; so many of the privileges that the feminists focus on are reserved for the top. From my perspective, working class men get crushed by the patriarchy and then blamed by the feminists.
Men do these things for their families and their kin. You don't understand because you are a cheap imitation of what a man actually is. You have lived in a world built by us, guarded by us, and operated by us. Think of it like a bird. A bird builds a nest to attract mates, they dance, and look for pretty shiny gifts in the hopes, to just mate. It is our instincts. Ingrained for our survival. If you can't add to the collective, then you are a dead weight. Instincts are what drives us. And stop with the patriarchy. Men have had a war on them since the turn of the 20th century, and your sex have swallowed the pills of a false promise social status that men deserve. We fight your wars, we gather your resources, and we keep the lights on. Women are not only ungrateful, but they also forget their roles.
There is no patriarchy. How can working class men get crushed by a system that's supposed to...privilege men? Men lead plain and simple. Women don't. Naturally. When women try to lead it just ends up hurting everything with DEI, HR departments, etc.
Except that "patriarchy" is 100% in service to the actual matriarchy behind-the-scenes... women. You might not have realized that yet... but you DO seem to have noticed that the patriarchy doesn't GAF about men. You should try changing that word to "the elite", instead.
That’s terrible advice. Loneliness is a social epidemic and forming families is a mark of success and necessary for human flourishing. What you’re suggesting is a form of s*icide.
@@Amlux1984"Terrible advice", ¿Are you aware of the LEGAL AND SOCIAL disadvantages for Men in "Relationships"?, better being lonely than with an Entitled Feminist sympathizer. Talk about "Forming families", ¿Where the Man isn't entitled to Sex, Authority or Respect?, Fk_off
@@Bahamut998Would you want to have kids that aren't biologically yours and you don't have ANY Authority and the Woman can treat them as legal hostages? I leave you that as a Homework.
We live in the decade of navel gazing. We used to just say "Well that thing that just happened definitely sucked. Can't go back in time and have it go differently. Time to move on."
I think one of the biggest issues facing girls and young women with regard to social media is the fear mongering common in feminist spaces. Feminism is built on the fight for women's rights and you don't get the next generation to keep fighting by talking about all the progress that's been made or the positives in society, no, you keep the fight going by showing the worst of the worst, you keep the fight going by making girls think they're under constant attack and constant threat from all sides, you keep the fight going by making young girls afraid to stop fighting. Is it any wonder a lot of young girls are anxious?
@@squabdiggity743 Whilst it is more socially acceptable for women to wear high heals, their advantage in this situation would be nullified by the affect of standing on tip-toe; so I will give you that. But by the same regard, that also means men are more likely to bump their noggin. I don't think I've had to reach for a top shelf since a purchased a mobile phone with internet access.
No matter what I do how I do it or how successful I am with the endeavor, I know that I will be judged by women based solely on the choice of footwear I am walking in.
It's a common mistake a lot of feminists and egalitarians both make. "Feminism is for equality" is 100% true, but it's not the same as egalitarianism. Egalitarianism is the ideal of equal rights for everyone. Feminism is the fight for equal rights in cases where men have more. Feminism isn't against men's rights, but it isn't for them either. That's a critical distinction a lot of people miss. I'm a feminist AND a mens rights advocate. These people and goals are 95% aligned, but both groups are susceptible to fascists that want to scapegoat the other. Remember that what you see on social media, including youtube is designed to make money by making you angry. The fascists and idiots get the spotlight because it makes google, xitter and facebook the most money. The gender war from both sides is funded by huge corporate interests. Almost every dating site is owned by the same billionaires and they're all designed to make people lonely and bitter and poor. They will split every demographic and try to pit people against each other wherever possible to keep their own power secure. All of this is just rich people getting non-rich people to fight each other.
Egalitarianism is bad too. Instead of focusing on making men and women equal, we should look at what each gender wants and just try to improve their lives. Consider how she instantly said that she would like more female CEOs. Why? Why does the gender of the CEO matter? If men are more prone to having the skills a CEO needs, shouldn't we have more male CEOs? How does it help women as a whole for one individual women to be given a CEO position? This is what I can't stand about feminism or egalitarianism. Man and women are not classes competing for control of society. A man and women in marriage have far more political goals in common then 2 women at random. But yet everything is treated like "another point for the mans team, guess we don't have equality".
I'd go one step further: most women don't want to be a Fortune 500 CEO. Most men don't want it either. It's an incredibly competitive exercise and it requires high energy, intelligence, great health and focus on one thing for decades (plus a fair amount of luck). Most people want a well balanced life, a comfy 9-to-5 including myself. If you take a random men amongst 1k you might find someone workaholic enough to achieve this level of success and maybe one in 10k women.
Feminism by design ignores working-class men outside of Feminist fear of plebeian revolt. Their regime is meant to be sustained only through uninterrupted bottom-up transfer of resources and rigid enforcement of social class division.
@michajastrzebski4383 Yes they do. If rich people treat little people like crap in public so should females in positions of power. The only way to keep inferior people in their place is to treat them like garbage. Jeff Bezos gives everyone an i.q test. Those that score average or below get treated like crap.
The Sham of Equal Opportunity: The Truth Behind the Push for Group Rights Activists often claim they seek "equal opportunity," but the reality is far different. Their true aim is the enforcement of group rights and substantive equality, masked in the language of fairness and equal access. This rhetorical sleight of hand allows them to justify policies that prioritize group-based outcomes over individual merit, undermining the very principle of equal opportunity. For example, feminists advocating for lowered physical fitness standards for women in professions like firefighting argue that they are simply seeking equal opportunity. In truth, they are demanding guaranteed outcomes for women, not equal access to the opportunity to succeed. This shift from equal opportunity to substantive equality is hidden under a guise of fairness but is ultimately about enforcing group-based success, not individual achievement. Much of the literature supporting these movements deliberately conceals this shift, presenting the demand for group outcomes as though it were simply a quest for equality of opportunity. This results in policies that reward identity over ability, undermining merit-based success. Equal opportunity, in their framing, no longer means the chance to succeed based on effort and qualifications-it means ensuring specific groups achieve predefined outcomes, regardless of performance. A clear example of how this distortion harms society is the student loan crisis. The ban on intelligence testing-particularly IQ testing-in education and hiring exacerbates the problem. If employers were truly concerned with race, they would test blood, not intelligence. IQ tests, though controversial, are a valid measure of intellectual ability and should be one of many tools to assess potential. Banning such testing forces employers and educational institutions to accept individuals who may not be intellectually prepared, ultimately lowering standards and contributing to poor outcomes. Another key distortion of equal opportunity is the creation of women’s business centers at publicly funded universities. These centers, designed to benefit women specifically, violate the plain meaning of Title IX, which was meant to ensure equal access to educational opportunities for men and women, not preferential treatment for one group. The push for such centers reflects a broader redefinition of equal opportunity-a shift towards guaranteed outcomes rather than fair access. This redefinition, however, is undemocratic. There is no diversity exception to the 14th Amendment. The Constitution guarantees equal protection under the law, a principle that has been systematically distorted by judicial decisions that favor group-based policies. The courts have created exceptions and justifications for diversity-based outcomes, even though these policies contradict the plain meaning of the Constitution and democratically passed laws. What’s more, the courts and policymakers seem determined never to define what "diversity" is supposed to look like in practice, leaving the concept vague and open to endless interpretation. This undermines the very foundation of equal protection and the rule of law, allowing for arbitrary and inconsistent application of policies. When laws are manipulated to favor specific groups, they erode the core democratic value of equal treatment for all. True equality before the law demands a return to meritocracy, where individuals are judged based on their abilities, not their group identity. It means rejecting the notion that diversity must be imposed through quotas or special treatment and returning to the ideal of equal opportunity-where success is determined by effort, ability, and qualifications, not predefined group outcomes. In conclusion, the push for "equal opportunity" is often a thinly veiled demand for group-based equality. This demand distorts the plain meaning of both the Constitution and democratically enacted laws, undermining the principle of equal protection and paving the way for a legal system that prioritizes group identity over individual merit. If we are to uphold the ideals of fairness and democracy, we must reject policies that impose group rights and return to a system where equal opportunity means equal treatment for all, regardless of race, gender, or other characteristics.
The reason they ban things like IQ tests is because they are actually racist and without evidence belief black people are dumber then them. Notice how much the anti-racist crowd is white and how often they talk about guilt. They are projecting, but refuse to change themselves. Just about every problem is caused by people trying to justify why their personal sin isn't that bad.
This is just a thought, but sometimes as a male, when you talk about issues it feels good in that moment, but you know that it is only temporary. Tomorrow things will just go back to how it was, and you are back in the same place you were at. I think we want something to permanently change in our lives so we can live a better life, and not just talk. For example, if you work 70 hours a week, and on the weekend, you have all of these obligations for your family, to fix things around the house and other chores, then before you know it, it is Monday and your back to another 70-hour work week repeating the same thing in constant exhaustion, physical and mental.
NO, our entire society ignores working class men. The billionaires don’t want to pay them and want to bust their unions. Rather than target billionaires, the billionaires deflect and tell men it’s the women…
I was a stay at Home mom with no money in my IRA or any savings of my own, which was scary at 53 years of age. Three years ago I got a part time job and save everything I make. After 3 years, I am 56 yo and have put $9,000 in an IRA and $40,000 in my portfolio with CFA, Evelyn Infurna. Since the goal of getting a job was to invest for retirement and NOT up my lifestyle, I was able to scale this quickly to $150,000. If I can do this in a year, anyone can.
I know this lady you just mentioned. Evelyn Infurna Services is a portfolio manager and investment advisor. She gained recognition as a former employee at Goldman Sachs; a renowned investor she is. Evelyn Infurna has demonstrated expertise in investment strategies n has been involved in managing portfolios and providing guidance to clients.
I went from no money to lnvest with to busting my A** off on Uber eats for four months to raise about $20k to start trading with Evelyn Infurna. I am at $128k right now and LOVING that you have to bring this up here
She hooked me up with a late-stage fund that got me in on private shares of some hot companies before they hit the market or blew up. Those investments totally paid off when the companies went public and their stocks shot up. Now, I’m stoked because I’m heading into retirement with almost a million bucks in my portfolio.
I'm a carpenter worked my butt off all my life backbreaking work one thing people fail to understand if i have to eat way more protein steak especially to keep up my protein levels and creatine ect i eat way more if the office work can live off 1500 calories and can do a 200 dollar food budget mine is like 450 clothes are trashed faster boots are like 300 dollars yet i still need nice clothes also trucks and gas for work is incredibly expensive. Our lifestyle is expensive even when we make little more money at younger ages we aren't making more money when you count everything else. There are to many calculations when trying to look at wage gaps.
In the UK 94 percent of nursery staff female. 84 percent of primary schools teachers female. And 76 percent of all staff female up to 18. Wonderful why boys give up on school.
I think the issue isn't how many women are in those roles, but rather how many of those women are bitter about being in those roles. Ever had a teacher that complains about how little she makes all the time? Feminism takes that bitterness and turns it toward men. But in this case the only men are boys.
The first step to successful investment is figuring your goals and risk tolerance either on your own or with the help of a financial professional but it's very advisable you make use of professional.

Our "therapeutic society" is another way of saying our "gynocentric society" and we are far worse off efforting at changing boys into girls rather than embracing the differences and building society together.

Whiteout working men there is no economy! The economy rely on people mainly men, actually creating the stuff that we need to live (houses, cars, food etc)
Because we live in a society. In one that is composed by women and men. If you try to achieve a social change, you need both sexes. Otherwise, it will just divide people.
oh, it can exclude us, sure. We'll just exclude women in return, from anything and everything that comes from men. Deal? After all, we have SAME right to do it, right?
@@SystemBD Your correct, but dividing people is the goal. Take any marxist statement and swap the economic classes with gender, does that not sound like feminism?
As a man, I disagree with the tone that "empathy" is a female virtue. This is a virtue that is seldom role-modelled among men now days in our society, but that isn't to say there have never been male models of empathy, there certainly have been. What needs to be done is hold tech companies responsible for creating a media atmosphere where elevated discourse is the exception, not the norm. We do not need to silo men into echo chambers dominated by toxic masculinity.
Empathy is killing us. Someone else feels bad so you also feel bad and now you both have to be angry that someone else isn't feeling bad because you're feeling bad. Sympathy is a virtue. I can feel bad for you that you feel bad, but it doesn't affect my feelings nor do I have to demand other people feel bad.
@@Triaxx2 What is your point? Lots of emotions can "morph" into other emotions. There is nothing special about empathy in that regard, it depends on the circumstances under which people feel empathy.
She never said there have never been male models of empathy you assumed an exaggerated interpretation of what she said which is what is wrong with debates. Someone says something then says then they must be in favor of the opposite thing. Basically taking it to an extreme rather than understanding what the person is truly saying.
I don't want my kids to go to war, but I would rather a son then a daughter do it. I want my grandkids to have to have a stay at home parent, but I would prefer a daughter rather then a son do it.
I figured this out when I heard women agitating for inclusion into military front line combat units, including special forces. I had to point out to a few people that the women calling for this are usually NOT veterans themselves. If they have daughters, their daughters are usually just about anywhere else except the military in ANY capacity. “Be careful of people who are willing to sign you and yours up for things that they didn’t, couldn’t and wouldn’t allow for them and theirs…”
On a societal level, we have a valuation problem. (Neither Christ nor Buddha ever owned a Bugatti Tourbillon.) A great many of our most "successful" members of society are abject failures as human beings. Status is a social construct. Money is an abstract concept that only exists in the mind of human beings. Corporate ladders, houses and cars do not make a person. Narcissists, psychopaths and Machiavellian personality disorders cannot in any way be considered "successful" people, no matter what material they gain or how many people they manage to exploit or manipulate. By looking at their dossiers, Hitler and Pol Pot were "successful" people - power, wealth, land, title, fame, top of their game etc. If these superficial and impersonal metrics are what we measure human worth by, we're devaluing ourselves by default. No one who looks at flimsy crap as their measure of human worth, will ever be content. That discontented person is doomed to be miserable and envious their entire lives. They can only ever need more of what can never be enough. That works for relationships just as it applies to material possession. Hello "feminism". Hello "leftists".
Casey LaDelle did a video on a mfr meetup of Class A trucks. It had some competitions. Casey is a heavy haul/tow operator. He reported that the winner of the precision driving competition was a 19 yr old kid who before showing up at the meet up had never been in a big rig, much less driven one IRL. He'd learned his skills from some popular big rig simulator/game online. This is an interesting finding about "low-achieving" (in school) men pursuing and succeeding in engineering in college. Of course, the downside is these "low-achieving" men were diluting the the representation of women in PECS. "In a new study published today in the peer-reviewed research journal, Science, NYU researchers find that this disparity is not caused by higher math or science achievement among men. On the contrary, the scholars found that men with very low high-school GPAs in math and science and very low SAT math scores were choosing these math-intensive majors just as often as women with much higher math and science achievement. “Physics, engineering and computer science [PECS] fields are differentially attracting and retaining lower-achieving males, resulting in women being underrepresented in these majors but having higher demonstrated STEM competence and academic achievement,” said Joseph R. Cimpian, lead researcher and associate professor of economics and education policy at NYU Steinhardt."
This was/is me. I had a 2.0 GPA in high school and hated every single day of it as I thought it was pointless and basically just a holding cell until I was 18. I joined the military and stayed until I figured out what I wanted to do and my college GPA was a 4.0 in my STEM courses.
I agree with her on many points, with one caveat. I'm a man with traditionally masculine habits and interests, but I'm a "ruminator". Talking through my problems and processing my emotions absolutely helps me. There's nothing wrong with that, I'm not abnormal or effeminate. Just because it's not good for most men doesn't mean it's not good for any men. I think people need to remember that tendencies aren't absolute. Don't forget about guys like me.
I do not want my kids to be taught a moral code or moral compass at school, they can learn about philosophy and history and develop a moral compass themselves with lessons from experience and life. I want them to be taught how to count, read, write, sciences, technology, art, music and also home economics. I do not want them morally programed, they learn morals from life experience, making mistakes, excelling at things and the right kind of tuition. Some people never develop a moral compass, this has nothing to do with education, more to do with personality. It is important kids are given guidance in the direction of critical thinking, how to make decisions based on the evidence/information you have or dealing with hard situations. We need to prepare our kids to be as adaptable as possible in a quickly changing World. Some of the most successful people hated school, one even said do not let college or university get in the way of a good education??!! People also learn things and then believe that what they learnt is fact forever, although this will be true at the time facts change with new discoveries and evidence, people need to be aware that even experts are learning. Sometimes a tough life makes adaptable remarkable people, but a tough life can also have the opposite effect. We need to stop interfering with our kids well being and outlook, this is something they should be left to develop themselves, all we can do is guide them a little.
Great opinion here. You include home economics. My mother and her sisters were educated in boarding schools (early 50s) and universities thereafter. They could buy whatever they wanted, but somewhere they all had learned to sew really well and often made their own skirts, Bermuda shorts, cocktail dresses, et c. (I don't remember my grandmother sewing anything.) By the late 1970s, my cohort seemed to think the whole thing was obsolete and silly. But now? I look back and appreciate the brains and skill that it takes to study fabric, cut out a pattern, insert button holes and zippers... and troubleshoot a Singer?? Without the benefit of TH-cam? Good luck. I came to realize that sewing was another feather in the caps of women like my mother who were educated, opinionated, clever, et c...and completely secure in running the house and raising kids.
You don’t learn “morals from life experience”. If you do that what’s the difference in comparison to the morals that criminals have. They have life experience as well. That is for YOU to teach them morals.
@@mikenagy938morals, personal standards, attention to detail and being innovative all develop through a combination of personality traits, education and the society you grow up in. Just reading the bible does not imprint morals on people, although our society has christian morlas and values to some degree, most have been corrupted now or lost. A lot of people instinctively know what the right thing to do is, others do not, or will deliberately do the wrong thing because they revell in chaos and mayhem. So, in my opinion, which is formed from my experiences, a basic moral code comes from the individuals own personality traits, society expectations and a bit of education and guidance. Mostly though, most people automatically know right from wrong, whether they follow what they know is right or wrong comes down to personality traits of the individual.
Being put in a closed room with high likelihood a woman (as most teachers tend to be) and being made to to talk about your feelings and emotional vulnerabilities is uncomfortable even as a grown man. Imagine being put into that situation as a small boy when you have absolutely zero control over whether you can just *leave* if you no longer feel comfortable giving her answers she didn't want to hear and having your right to have them be challenged and undermined. No wonder they found it weird, what kind of adult wants to put a small child in the spot like that where the adult has all the power and the child is expected to give them even more?

When women are sent in the Trench's the same as my elders from my father to the Great & Great Great grand male elders of ww1 & 2 then I will see them as our peers.
Mean time I hear many demands & nothing in exchange without any appreciation.
Man built society & we can do it again.
At this point I will sit back for it all to fall & from the ruins then we men can rebuild it!
Men can live with very little.
Look at the amount of single men that just have a chair, bed & a tv.
Even myself as former survival instructor I can live with nothing though a knife makes matters considerably easier.
without men most women could not even nap flint much less forge iron or anything of real consequence from western men!
This is not sexism but reality!
I'd enjoy a partner i consider my equal but honestly they treated me more like a father or free labour then a partner.
4.5% of only male marriage end in divorce while all women is over 13%.
Traditional/unisex =7.5% roughly.
Even women don't want to live with women.
Food for thought!
The only benefit to being a man is that I was born smart and strong, everything else is a downside.
I support Sommers, but DUH!!! We all know feminists have ignored EVERYTHING that doesn't comport with their biases against men.

For the group of women who claim "men are useless": I am an aircraft mechanic. I am a female. I am outnumbered at least 50:1. In my current role, there are 12 planes a night that require maintenance and paperwork. I cannot do it all by myself. So get your butts out here already and quit complaining.
Also, the men I work with are awesome. Hard workers and fun to be around.
They won’t. Unlike you, they don’t really want to do it.

Women with college degrees are often quick to look down on the plumber, carpenter, electrician who repairs the broken things and almost always questions why he should be able to charge a high hourly rate that far exceeds her earning power. Problem solving skills are not automatically granted by a diploma.
Most modern degrees are also just toilet paper. There is such an inflation of qualifications without anyone actually having any competency that the biggest selling point in landing a job is having evidence of you already having done said job.
Add in the massive amount of fake jobs that people do in an office where they just talk all day while 3 people do the work of 50.
Really? My college educated dad bitched about them louder than anyone.
People just don't like spending money. This is not a gendered issue.
@@amandasmith3504 Not being able to see human males as human beings *IS* a gendered issue.
@@amandasmith3504There's a particular vitriolic misandry that comes from the far lefy.
It's tragic because those Females have social science degrees which are basically illegitimate due to the woke propaganda in the curriculum and the inability of the female brain to actually acquire knowledge vs just take notes and regurgitate on exams. Those trade certificates indicate alot more merit. Basically tradesmen are higher status than women with degrees but propaganda makes their positions feel reversed.
I have a STEM masters degree and worked in tech. Believe me, the scales are massively tipped in favor of women at that level too. It's not just the working class men. Feminists, their allies and even neutral parties are blind to this.
Even when speaking on behalf of men, the condescension is right there. Here, the inference is that men without a college degree are uneducated and cannot handle the information world. There is this overarching assumption that men without college degrees are somehow inferior. Also, what passes for "education" here in the USA is just anti-male indoctrination. I did not hear that addressed at all. I submit that most college degrees in the US are worthless today in terms of the value they provide both the degree holder and society. Feminists worship at the altar of Western secular education.
In fact, this discussion here about men was quickly spun into how things impact girls and women. Discussing issues like this with a feminist is useless. They cannot talk about men's issues without immediately including women's issues into it. It's all zero sum for them. Any advantage for a man is immediately deemed as stolen from a woman.
It is the Marxist mentality within feminism. But that's not the case with Hoffsumers. Even though she thinks in terms of women, she understands reality more as a natural order and that harming men is harming women, just as abolitionists claimed that slavery made southern elites poorer than northern elites and harmed society as a whole. , including white people.

Just pointing out... Christina was speaking about men's issues... and speaking pretty well... and it was the GUY who changed the subject to girls and women and social media.
Of course, whenever anyone tries to discuss men's issues and problems, it ALWAYS gets redirected to women's problems... and almost always by a woman.
That's just SOP for them... zero-sum game.
When I was in school getting my CS degree, we had a guest speaker, a young woman working in SW engineering for Microsoft. One of the things she said was, "we are proud that 20% of our SW engineers are women, but there is still work to do." I pointed out that this is highly problematic, since only 7% of CS majors (at the time) were women, and asked if that meant that they were preferential to women. "Of course not, we are equal opportunity, blah blah blah, cope cope cope", yes they were preferentially hiring women.
But there is something else even more insidious going on here. Microsoft, is a big company with deep pockets, so they can offer 10,000 SW engineering jobs to women, starting at 150k+ a year, and of course those women are going to take those jobs and pad Microsoft's demographics. So now what about all the other companies who are being scrutinized through the lens of demographics? A smaller company doesn't have that many openings, and they probably aren't offering boatloads of money, and they really need good talent. But all the good, talented women were hired by Microsoft, Google, Facebook, at crazy rates! So now those other companies are basically forced to hire men, (remember they can't afford low performing engineers) and now Microsoft, Google, and Facebook can turn around and say "Look at how progressive we are, we hire women at 4 times the rate of these other companies, aren't we special!?"

Feminism was the start of identity politics IMO
Black radical feminism specifically.
@@gabeo9474nah feminist pit men against women before the black ones showed up
As soon as they inserted Marxism into their philosophy they went insane. Communism sucks kids.
@@wingsoffreedom3589 Sure, but that's not what identity politics is. Identity politics is the strategic organization of society according to identity characteristics for the purpose of building political coalitions to artificially empower minority group interests to defeat majority group interests within a democracy. Pitting wmn against men lacked the additional dimensions necessary to build identity-based coalitions until other identity groups formed and accumulated political power independently within society.
@@gabeo9474 Can't agree with you. Black women remain among the least wealthy and influential groups. They cannot be blamed for tectonic cultural shifts that have come to us from the top down, from the highest spheres of influence. Lots of things led to identity politics, and the industrial revolution and the pill are probably at the top.
I don’t know about America, however in Australia roughly three times as much is spent on women’s health compared to men’s health. Yet over 90% of deaths and injuries in the workplace are suffered by men. Four times as much is spent on social services and housing for women, yet homeless men outnumber the women by over twenty to one. Yes men have privileges, but the vast majority of men are viewed as of far inferior value compared to women.
I think women in this day and age have it far too easy. This explains why men should work with other men to provide a safety net for men only.
"roughly three times as much is spent on women’s health compared to men’s health"
Or as feminists call it: *Good and important first steps on the way to total 'equality'.*
Truth
Yep, i don't know the numbers but it sounds the same as the US
What you described is the feminist goal of what they call "equality".
btw my previous reply here was censored by yt. Let's see if this one gets censored as well.
If you ask a feminist, every single undesirable job that has few, or no women, does so purely because of sexism. Including construction and sewage diving. If you found a line of work that literally no woman in human history has ever applied for, the answer of why would still be sexism.
That is how marxism works, just because we flavor it as gender doesn't change that it is us vs them at it's core.
I have hope more men get into the work where women are majority - the work of care - like kindergardens, homes for elderly, nurses. I wish men were the ones on parental leave taking care of baby (totally possible today btw) while woman gets to go back to work and doesnt get sacked. And of course, for women to get more into roles such as "undesirable job that has few, or no women".
Women just want to be boss babes, making money while sitting and bossing men on Slack/Teams/Zoom from the comfort of their home while the men are ACTUALLY DOING A JOB. The feminism is the code word for the matriarchy.

⚠️Correction ⚠️:
There is no wage Gap. What is referred to as "the wage Gap" it's not controlled for actually equal comparisons. Something called the "controlled wage Gap" explicitly looks at comparisons between both men and women of equal work, experience, education, etc etc... and the controlled wage gap... Doesn't really exist.
Uncontrolled wage Gap (which is primarily due to simply not working as many hours): Women earn $0.83 to the dollar a man earns.
Controlled wage Gap: Women earn $0.99 cents to the dollar a man earns.
(In most, but not all cases it's exactly $1 to $1. In some cases women earn more, but averaged out it's about $0.99 to $1)
The gender wage Gap has mostly been political rhetoric, as opposed to the truth.
And then studies were done in some corporations as part of lawsuits based on the pay gap claim.
At Google they found that there really was a pay gap:
Women outearned men after full stratification.
Those studies did not account for actual output btw.
People who work in mixed office know that there's another gap in spending time effectively on generating output.
@@sneezyfido you're quite correct. Not just at google, but other places around the country too... When you start pulling apart the actual data overall, larger cities tend to have a wage gap where women earn more, and more rural areas have a wage gap where men earn more. Cumulatively it tends to average out to near/about the same when looking at the averages of the group dynamics.
In the US there's the equal pay act of 1963, in the UK the equal pay act of 1970, it's written in law.
@@joejoejoejoejoejoe4391 that's correct. But... Laws don't actually stop crime from happening. Also, pay is not a standardized thing (even within the same company let alone across the board in all jobs and careers throughout the US and/or the UK). This means that there's going to be variance there, regardless of what laws may or may not be enacted.
But, yes you are correct... There is legal recourse if you have proof that you aren't being paid equitably due to some violations, such as gender. So, if women truly believed that they were being wronged, yes they would/should have legal recourse to redress the issue.
@@joejoejoejoejoejoe4391laws are worthless if not applied and enforced. There may not be a wage gap for the reasons described by certain female advocacy groups but there is an earnings gap.
Something I've noticed is that boys growing up need competition. This is how the male mind encounters and processes his feelings. He will lose more than he wins. His efforts are entirely in his own hands. From this, he learns he must work on himself. Learn to control his outbursts and depression. He obtains grit and becomes humbled in the process. Something the modern day is missing.
I like this.
Couldn't have said it better
Well spoken and insightful
Shonen manga is a lot around healthy rivalry.
So how is this women's problem? Men needing to compete with each other is their business, not ours. We don't care what men do amongst themselves, we care about how they treat us. Women and children are who matter to us.
Feminism is an upper middle class woman issue. As my working class aunt said many years ago, "I had all the equality I could handle, I went to work everyday just like my husband". Poor girls worked, the single daughters and maiden aunts of the middle class started taking the jobs of the poor girls when they left the family homes for city life apartments in the 1920s.
"Up to this time girls of the middle classes who had wanted to “do something” had been largely restricted to school-teaching, social-service work, nursing, stenography, and clerical work in business houses. But now they poured out of the schools and colleges into all manner of new occupations. ......
"In 1920 the department store was in the mind of the average college girl a rather bourgeois institution which employed “poor shop girls”; by the end of the decade college girls were standing in line for openings in the misses’ sports-wear department and even selling behind the counter in the hope that some day fortune might smile upon them and make them buyers or stylists." --‘Only Yesterday An Informal History Of The Nineteen Twenties’, Frederick Lewis Allen (1931)
It absolutely is, they wanted sexual freedom not equality.
Men have advantage to do harder jobs, because men are 3 times physically strong than women, even smaller men have great physical power....
so they are confident to do theese jobs.
but they use this physical advantage to feed their kids.

Issues that affect women, society says we need to address it and fix it! When issue effects men, society says men need to fix their own issues! Society is highly gynocentric now, which is why society in the west is quickly deteriorating
@@Conservative_carnivore It is a zero sum game with women. When men do that women see it as a direct threat to them as that takes resources away from them and further victimises them.
The point is that psychology is now 95% women who are graduating and all the stuff they learn is focused on women. They see being male as a disorder to be fixed. And they use techniques that work for women, completely ignoring men being different (Blank Slate theory and the whole thing is a society construct that is learned). While it is clear that men and women process emotions differently, men and women learn differently. And if only men would do it the way women do then that would solve everything (Square peg in round hole).
Thus they say men are broken. This is completely wrong, disrespectful and toxic towards men. It has caused massive damage to young boys and men. And there is 100 Billion dollar industry behind this with all these incentives backing it up - focus on women and women first and women are perfect.
This is why men have dropped out and left quietly. There is no place for men now other than under the feet of women. More and more men are and will keep leaving the West to where they are valued as people.
This captivating video triggers a flood of painful memories from the end of my 6 year relationship just three months ago. The woman I loved with all my heart chose to walk away, leaving me grappling with an insurmountable sense of loss. Despite my relentless efforts to salvage what we had, I'm left feeling disillusioned and unable to imagine a future without her. Despite my attempts to move on , I'm drawn to express my deep-seated longing for her here.
The struggle to release someone dear to your heart is undeniably arduous. I empathize, having experienced a similar circumstance when my 6 year relationship concluded. Refusing to accept defeat, I pursued every conceivable avenue to reclaim his affection. Eventually, I sought the assistance of a spiritual counselor, whose wisdom and intervention played a pivotal role in reuniting us.
Where did you find a spiritual counselor, and how can I get in touch with her?
Suzanne Ann Walters is the name of an exceptional spiritual counselor renowned for her ability to reunite you with your former partner.

Thats because western society put women on a imaginary pedestal like they are special or something. Those women bred and over generations their children and children's children taught young women that they are the center of the universe. Now they are finding out they aren't special and have resentment, the only thing they can do is place blame rather than take accountability. Western women; specifically feminists are a shit show compared to the rest of the world.
Expect that to change soon. Feminism is a plague.
My mother was the house terrorist
I went into a DEI meeting for managers and there was >60% women. The topic was women in leadership and they keep perpetuating the income gap myth. Feminism is not about equality for many women its about more power & $ for themselves. Do you hear any women talking about representation in the military, in sewage systems, in construction, in oil fields, in mining?
I was threatened with DEI training as a lead... I said I'd get thrown out of the training cause I'd prove them all wrong. I asked the panel of people deciding my fate of insubordination, How many of the women at the meeting wanted to rebuild a 70 year old gearbox with me. None answered. I asked how many of the men (half were engineers). Needless to say I got promoted to supervisor. Being the guy that NO one wants his responsibilities has its merits.
Unfortunately feminism is in the military too. Women don’t have to cut off their hair in bootcamp like male recruits do.
I spent 8 years in the oilfield after a heart attack. 99 % men who were braving cold and danger to make America energy independent. I absolutely adore women. I don’t expect women to do dangerous back breaking labor. But I do ask for respect…..
Woman and men are a ying yang thing. And she is right…. We are in this together.
The trouble is the women do not adore men - many despise us - most of all the feminists - who strangely also suffer from some form of male envy. If they cared about men they would care about male suicide, the poor performance of boys in school etc. The feminists have trained women to look at men as oppressors and sexual predators - whilst meanwhile it is the women who are racking up body counts like crazy. Feminism is the ultimate evil - destroying relationships between men and women, which also destroys families, morals and ultimately society.
*yin yang
The Yin has no g.
You are so accurate.
Women see male celebrities, CEOs and athletes and think all men lives those very same lives and treat others like peasants.
As the saying goes "When you're accustomed to privilege, equality feels like oppression."
Most men live thankless lives and all they ask for his recognition of their existence.
But they don't need men because... ya know the lights turn on their own and the gas at the pumps show up on their own...
If they wish to leave their role and do men's traditional jobs, I respect that 100%.
...When they are held to the same standards of accountability and societal expectations that we were/are filling that role.
When a majority of western women demand materialistic lifestyles and aren't satisfied by the salary of brick layers, electricians, fire fighters, oil rig workers, welders, carpenters, roofers, engineers they're only resulting in women putting themselves in harems with top percentage men.
Sure, but they absolutely love that.

Agree MD6886. No amount of propaganda or shaming, or Government indoctrination can change the reality of creation and the profound differences between the sexes.

But we lost site of that.
@@TheKCaryerThat's not the matter. Men and Women should have the same rights.
at this point I really do not know what "burden" women have. A woman can do whatever she wants, if she works, is ok, if she doesn't it's also ok, if she studies is ok, if she doesn't or does not use the investment put on her education, is ok too. Women have all sort of support and initiative aiming at making their life easier. Men have nothing of those options or support, but it's women who are still complaining. I would think men must raise their demands why higher
Women, like spoiled children, must be free you see. Men however, as adults, must take responsibility of themselves and everybody else (and society)or else they are not "real men" and therefore disqualified as boyfriends, husbands and fathers. Women play the game of life on easy mode, and men on hard mode.
Men are the reason we have society existence outside the few areas that women can contribute to the general societal good. Women work best when their is a structure and not as effective without it.
The "burden" they feel so heavy upon them is the burden of existence. For some reason, the female mind craves for non-existence. No responsibilities, no initiatives, no needing to express wants or stand up for anything other than for show.

In many ways a society can be judged by its women. The quality of women today has dropped significantly in the last 20 years.
Men do all the heavy lifting that keeps America running. We keep the lights on, the toilets flushing and food on the grocery store shelves, just to name a few. If all women went on strike for a week it would be difficult. During the half the year that schools are in session they'd have to close, if it happened during the half the year schools are out of session we'd notice nothing different there. Retail stores would close for the week, hospitals would be in tough shape without nurses, convenience stores and grocery stores would give some men overtime.
However, if all men went on strike for a week we'd be back in the stone age in 3 days.
And yet, they talk down to us like we are schoolchildren, absolutely no respect
Nobody would be happier to be back in the "Stone Age," than men. They'd be at a level that rewards their social skills.
But it'd be a tough descent as we lose all the women surgeons, mathematicians, engineers, pilots, chemists, farmworkers, meatpackers, care workers, journalists, accountants, civil servants, clerics, managers, executives, truck drivers, architects, actors, clothing designers, geologists, oceanographers . . .
With men in charge it the healthcare system, it would deteriorate at first, but we'd make cold clinical choices and then things would improve way faster than before the experiment. As long as people can follow instructions and learn, then we'd do fine.

Its not that it effects women more; its that (a) women are more vocal in a society that protects women and (b) men and boys *dont* speak about our problems because in most cases (and through experience) we arent listened to or we are ignored.

Its true. And there is no end to revenge. It's a fools game
Yes, and moreover when you punish the sons for the sins of their fathers you remove all reason for people to improve who they are.
If you're guilty whether you steal or not, at some point, you understand the game is rigged against you and you only hurt yourself by not being the monster you are constantly punished as.
In this case not even the fathers, it's the great, great, great grandfathers (maybe, we're not really sure who was bad but they look a little like you kind of) . It's wildly regressive and the outcome is predictably very negative and increases things like actual racism as a primary effect.
"Privilege is invisible to those who have it"
Every man is a CEO don't ya know?
Women never see their privileges or acknowledge how much society favours them.
Exactly... it's invisible to those who have ALWAYS had it. But it's removal is not... why else do you think men are in such an uproar right now. They have lost some of their privilege and they are quite literally throwing a temper tantrum in response. All while watching a sex trafficking victim be abused online, sitting in their underwear, covered in cheeto dust, in their mommy's basement! Refusing to work for their own keep let alone their families. Yet those same "men" want the credit for the world women have created. Gee I wonder why women have decided to dump men...
It's not invisible to everyone who has it... but it's also not something to be ashamed of... its just something to be aware of. I do think "shaming" people for it is counter-productive. It's also counter-productive to falsely assign privilege to entire demographics. Zip code matters far more than skin color.
Critical Epistemology is just academic cynicism. This phrase about privilege is just a gag phrase, a battle cry that everyone with the slightest sense knows is false. Louis XIV, a person with privileges, was fully aware of them and abused them. The White Beggar is not rich only because he is blind to his inherent privileges and must feel guilty about them for the conclusion of this cynical and authoritarian axiom.
It doesn't just ignore them, it vilifies them.
There's really nothing we can do at this point. This whole boy crisis has been building for decades at this point.
Unless something radical happens like a new deal scenario or a sudden mass education opportunity for all the young men or boys that have fallen behind (id say purposely sabatoged by the system) then things will continue to get worse
And right now the MATGA movement is basically proving that the Salem method was brutal but not wrong
I have another theory. Men falling behind, we being miserable, is actually profitable. And it's happening worldwide. Especially in countries considered part of the third world, which is where I live.
Millenials and older generations of men naturally excel on anything they propose to do. We are experts on tech, construction, anything that lifts a country, we are there. This crisis intending to make us miserable, will leave us only with our jobs. No sons, no wife, no friends. By severing us more and more from community, the only thing left is work to death. I know I will never retire, own a house, or anything like that. No one will ever look after us, and those who say that will, are lying. Most of the illegal imigrants worldwide are young and single men. They do it because they have nothing else to lose.
We are all in a bottomless pit.
Thats not a thing tbh. Just because guys don't go to college to learn some useless skill at the same rate as women do does not make them uneducated.
What matters more is to actually restructure the education system to be able to function again like it did in the past.
Stop all the "no kid left behind" and "zero tolerance" stuff and actually do whats best for everyone.
Sort the kids by learn speed so that the smart ones can blaze ahead while the ones that need more help can get enough time.
Teach boys and girls according to how their gender learns best instead of forcing everyone into the girls class.
Education as it stands is absolutely useless, it gets you your basic skills but then your best bet is to get out and learn a practical skill while acquiring job experience and connections.
@@sneezyfido The puritans had *Witch Burnings*. Elon Musk made the "Not A Flamethrower". Technology improves.
Only way to solve is having boys schools separate from girls. Then, whatever the resources would focus on boys. In mixed schools, most resources sway towards girls and boys get the bread crumbs.
As I watch this enthralling video, it resurrects the painful memories of my recent breakup-a relationship of three years that ended just two months ago. The Man who meant everything to me decided to leave, plunging me into a vortex of heartache. Despite my desperate attempts to reconcile, I find myself trapped in a cycle of frustration and longing, unable to envision a life without him . Despite my efforts to move forward , I find solace in expressing my lingering affection for him here .
Letting go of someone you love deeply presents a formidable challenge. I faced a comparable ordeal when my 6 year relationship ended. Refusing to succumb to despair, I relentlessly pursued avenues to reconcile with him. Ultimately, I sought solace and guidance from a spiritual counselor, whose intervention proved instrumental in restoring our connection.
How did you discover a spiritual counselor, and what's the procedure for me to get in contact with her?
Meet Suzanne Ann Walters, a renowned spiritual counselor acclaimed for her talent in bringing back ex-partners.
Many thanks for providing this valuable information; I've just conducted an online search for her.
"Educated" women often look down on the plumber, the carpenter, the electrician, the HVAC repairman and the I.T. professional. They are also VERY quick to call on such men as soon as something needs to be repaired in order to keep their lives cushy and comfortable.
What are we really trying to achieve here?
We know men and women are different, so "equality", how? Make men into women, or women into men? And we know women marry up, so if we're all equal, who are the women going to have babies with? Which is an important point if you want a functioning society. The whole thing is plain poison.
There's no such thing as "Modern Feminism" only feminism period.
Yes.
Missing the ocean for the waves. Feminism has always been a hate movement.
Feminism has not ignored working class men. It has specifically demonized them.
Men : For 30 years talking about feminism ignoring men
This woman : Talking about the same thing
Society : So true now...
I suspect, you're being overly positive. Society ignores her talking as well.
Society: the Bible is still sexist though...
Pretty sure society isn't actually listening to what this women was saying. People hear about the gender differences but they forget to challenge their assumptions about the world based on the idea that man and women are the same. Not a fan of how Rome treated women, but at least they knew what a women is. Which is far better then how our culture is treating people.
to be honest, she is basically ignoring men too. Even in this video she primarily discusses them as a platform to talk about women or girls.
"School is failing males, so we made or more feelings based (which does not appeal to men AT ALL), and we found that females really prospered."
HUH?
"Men work all the hard manual labor jobs that keep society running."
"OK... tell us more about that."
"No."
"If men and boys are in trouble..."
"Yes? YES?!"
"Then women are too." 🤦
Most successful female CEO to date - Elizabeth Holmes 😀
Yes, they ignore the failures of prominent women - only men are horrible people - if women run businesses and government everything will be wonderful. Only we are finding it is a tyranny of DEI hires.
LOL. Indra Nooyi says have a Pepsi and relax.

Her deep voice inspired such confidence though
0:44 agreed, but any working class man can easily say it’s 100x better being a woman.
I feel sorry for all these feminist women. They literally go through life miserable.
Who hinders women to start their own business and become the ceo?
or working in sewers?
No one is hindering woman from anything! The government forces companies to hire woman through affirmative action. Scholarships cater to woman to such a degree that there was nearly zero for men. Women are promoted to the highest position when they have the least amount of merits.
Nobody! Men are literally stepping back and giving women space to do what they want. They just need to complain about something.
Accountability and HARD WORK
Government initiatives. Just like dei. Some are working real jobs, majority had it given to them, and made significantly easy for a pay wage that doesn't make sense when compared to all labour jobs.
1:53 education has been dumbed down so people need to college to get a fast food job
I remember reading about a few studies that showed that the reason these forever in therapy people never actually get better is because when you sit there and focused on all the woes in life and and problems and your feelings 100% of the time it actually makes you worse.
Like duh if all you thought about is how awful everything is all the time, no wonder you can never get past it. Idk why we really need studies for such like “DUHHHH not shit” things, but also if we didn’t all the forever in therapy people would scream “wHaTs YoUr SoUrSe BrO!?!?”
Former psychotherapist here. You are absolutely right. But there is more. Most contemporary psychotherapies are just different styles of bullying; that is, most psychotherapies are just intellectualized ways of bullying. I remember, the day I quite being a psychotherapist was the day where I got reprimanded by my supervisor for getting a client who had been struggling with severe depression free of any depressive symptoms. According to my supervisor, I wasn't supposed to actually help that person.
@@BH-2023That's horrible.
@@BH-2023that supervisor and any others in that company who behave and do business like that should absolutely be in prison. Good on you for having some decency and refusing to be part of such a disgusting practice
For one thing... women tend to be process-oriented... men tend to be goal/completion-oriented.
The truth is that religion, community and common sense resolved these problems quickly and healthily. It was effective.
Mental Treatment only works for psychosis and dementia (which was the part that our culture had not found a solution for).
I'm a dude and attended elementary school in the USA back in the 1970s. Being forced to "talk about my problems" would have done my troubled self no good whatsoever. Boys are naturally distrustful of adults and their intentions, and experience tells me that making a boy reveal his inner thoughts to a teacher or counselor would be counterproductive and downright traumatic. Some problems are best worked out within one's self, or among friends.
To call what's happening to young men right now, especially in America, perverse is an incomplete description.
It's sick and twisted and every parent of a child in America should be feeling, what I can only describe as a fear-filled shame.
The current circumstance is indeed actively creating the activist misogynists of the future.
And they could have known that if they bothered to think about men as human beings
I was a welding teacher for years. It was incredibly had to get the kids who graduated to actually get a job in the trade they learned. They know going blue collar will relegate them to a lower social status among their peers.
I think she's right regarding "trauma" and "therapy". Not only can trauma be made worse by talking about it endlessly, but there's good evidence that therapists have often induced trauma where there was none by reshaping their patients' attitude towards their experiences. More generally therapy may be the worst thing that has ever happened to people's mental health.
I was forced into therapy from the age of 12, I know I'm worse off for it.
@@SerasXHarkonnen - I'm sorry that happened to you, but remember that you can move on from it. Best of luck.
This is my mom
95% of her conversation is about drama and problems...always stressed and on edged.
Men talk but we do it for a purpose to solve issues, not for the sake of emotional validation. This is across heterosexual and homosexual men
This is what bothers me the most, it's the assumption that the female norm is the healthy baseline for human behavior and interaction. It's just crazy to me that it take so, so much to allow the thought that men aren't 'repressed', 'out of touch' or 'emotionally immature'; but rather that they have an entirely different internal emotional life and it actually serves them pretty well.
Males and females are very different. I had a kid with cancer, these differences were INSANELY useful going through that because my wife and I would never emotionally break down at the same time. One of us was always lucid enough to carry the team through whatever hell that day brought.
Even in the aftermath, I was ok, even proud that I had done my best, done my duty and did good as I could by my kid. She had survivor's guilt (they all did, we knew a lot of families that went through it) to a VERY high degree. I think the main reason you have break ups afterwards is because the emotional aftermath is so incredibly different and it's easy to misread the male's general response as uncaring from her point of view. Especially when she's fighting something herself internally that is SO deeply rooted and difficult.
I am kinda old. All we women wanted in 1965 was for women to be able to go to law or med school, or go into professions that were not female oriented, and for all kinds of people to live full and satisfying lives. Crushing the spirits of men, making a world where having a baby is super difficult, and having boys and girls play sports together after puberty was not on the list. Guess where the road of good intentions took us.
What wasn't satisfying about being a loving housewife? Most jobs suck.

For every 1 woman senator there needs to be 1,000,000 additional woman garbage truck drivers, roofers, welders, truck drivers, auto mechanics, deep sea fishers, construction workers, and conscripted soldiers….to name a few. THAT is equality.
As a blue collar transsexual man I am so grateful that you’ve posted this. I’ve lived as a woman and as a man and the difference is that men are more hierarchical; so many of the privileges that the feminists focus on are reserved for the top. From my perspective, working class men get crushed by the patriarchy and then blamed by the feminists.
Men do these things for their families and their kin. You don't understand because you are a cheap imitation of what a man actually is. You have lived in a world built by us, guarded by us, and operated by us.
Think of it like a bird. A bird builds a nest to attract mates, they dance, and look for pretty shiny gifts in the hopes, to just mate. It is our instincts. Ingrained for our survival. If you can't add to the collective, then you are a dead weight. Instincts are what drives us.
And stop with the patriarchy. Men have had a war on them since the turn of the 20th century, and your sex have swallowed the pills of a false promise social status that men deserve. We fight your wars, we gather your resources, and we keep the lights on. Women are not only ungrateful, but they also forget their roles.
There is no patriarchy. How can working class men get crushed by a system that's supposed to...privilege men? Men lead plain and simple. Women don't. Naturally. When women try to lead it just ends up hurting everything with DEI, HR departments, etc.
And men have been saying this for decades.
Fun timesc are over. When this pendulum swings back women really will be in trouble.
🎯🎯🎯
Except that "patriarchy" is 100% in service to the actual matriarchy behind-the-scenes... women.
You might not have realized that yet... but you DO seem to have noticed that the patriarchy doesn't GAF about men.

Stay single lads, never marry, never validate them

We live in the decade of navel gazing. We used to just say "Well that thing that just happened definitely sucked. Can't go back in time and have it go differently. Time to move on."
I think one of the biggest issues facing girls and young women with regard to social media is the fear mongering common in feminist spaces. Feminism is built on the fight for women's rights and you don't get the next generation to keep fighting by talking about all the progress that's been made or the positives in society, no, you keep the fight going by showing the worst of the worst, you keep the fight going by making girls think they're under constant attack and constant threat from all sides, you keep the fight going by making young girls afraid to stop fighting. Is it any wonder a lot of young girls are anxious?

Seems to be saying she is an egalitarian and trying to redefine feminism as egalitarian.
Sommers is a badly needed voice of moderation but she had her blind spots. This is one of them.
She is from the first wave. When feminism was egalitarian. Beauvoir who threw feminism into this authoritarian and misandric escalation.
@@wellingtonsh1 First wave was not egalitarian. Women never had to sign up for the draft to vote.
It's a common mistake a lot of feminists and egalitarians both make. "Feminism is for equality" is 100% true, but it's not the same as egalitarianism. Egalitarianism is the ideal of equal rights for everyone. Feminism is the fight for equal rights in cases where men have more. Feminism isn't against men's rights, but it isn't for them either. That's a critical distinction a lot of people miss. I'm a feminist AND a mens rights advocate. These people and goals are 95% aligned, but both groups are susceptible to fascists that want to scapegoat the other. Remember that what you see on social media, including youtube is designed to make money by making you angry. The fascists and idiots get the spotlight because it makes google, xitter and facebook the most money. The gender war from both sides is funded by huge corporate interests. Almost every dating site is owned by the same billionaires and they're all designed to make people lonely and bitter and poor. They will split every demographic and try to pit people against each other wherever possible to keep their own power secure. All of this is just rich people getting non-rich people to fight each other.
Egalitarianism is bad too. Instead of focusing on making men and women equal, we should look at what each gender wants and just try to improve their lives.
Consider how she instantly said that she would like more female CEOs. Why? Why does the gender of the CEO matter? If men are more prone to having the skills a CEO needs, shouldn't we have more male CEOs? How does it help women as a whole for one individual women to be given a CEO position?
This is what I can't stand about feminism or egalitarianism. Man and women are not classes competing for control of society. A man and women in marriage have far more political goals in common then 2 women at random. But yet everything is treated like "another point for the mans team, guess we don't have equality".
Women want equality in the C-Suite, but nowhere else...
Also homeless men, men killed in war ect
Self deletion.
I'd go one step further: most women don't want to be a Fortune 500 CEO. Most men don't want it either. It's an incredibly competitive exercise and it requires high energy, intelligence, great health and focus on one thing for decades (plus a fair amount of luck). Most people want a well balanced life, a comfy 9-to-5 including myself. If you take a random men amongst 1k you might find someone workaholic enough to achieve this level of success and maybe one in 10k women.
Feminism by design ignores working-class men outside of Feminist fear of plebeian revolt. Their regime is meant to be sustained only through uninterrupted bottom-up transfer of resources and rigid enforcement of social class division.
Having more women in politics has helped absolutely nothing.

I dint knkw if its specifically feminism that ignores working class men. Women in general will ignore men who are lower status than them.
The Sham of Equal Opportunity: The Truth Behind the Push for Group Rights
Activists often claim they seek "equal opportunity," but the reality is far different. Their true aim is the enforcement of group rights and substantive equality, masked in the language of fairness and equal access. This rhetorical sleight of hand allows them to justify policies that prioritize group-based outcomes over individual merit, undermining the very principle of equal opportunity.
For example, feminists advocating for lowered physical fitness standards for women in professions like firefighting argue that they are simply seeking equal opportunity. In truth, they are demanding guaranteed outcomes for women, not equal access to the opportunity to succeed. This shift from equal opportunity to substantive equality is hidden under a guise of fairness but is ultimately about enforcing group-based success, not individual achievement.
Much of the literature supporting these movements deliberately conceals this shift, presenting the demand for group outcomes as though it were simply a quest for equality of opportunity. This results in policies that reward identity over ability, undermining merit-based success. Equal opportunity, in their framing, no longer means the chance to succeed based on effort and qualifications-it means ensuring specific groups achieve predefined outcomes, regardless of performance.
A clear example of how this distortion harms society is the student loan crisis. The ban on intelligence testing-particularly IQ testing-in education and hiring exacerbates the problem. If employers were truly concerned with race, they would test blood, not intelligence. IQ tests, though controversial, are a valid measure of intellectual ability and should be one of many tools to assess potential. Banning such testing forces employers and educational institutions to accept individuals who may not be intellectually prepared, ultimately lowering standards and contributing to poor outcomes.
Another key distortion of equal opportunity is the creation of women’s business centers at publicly funded universities. These centers, designed to benefit women specifically, violate the plain meaning of Title IX, which was meant to ensure equal access to educational opportunities for men and women, not preferential treatment for one group. The push for such centers reflects a broader redefinition of equal opportunity-a shift towards guaranteed outcomes rather than fair access.
This redefinition, however, is undemocratic. There is no diversity exception to the 14th Amendment. The Constitution guarantees equal protection under the law, a principle that has been systematically distorted by judicial decisions that favor group-based policies. The courts have created exceptions and justifications for diversity-based outcomes, even though these policies contradict the plain meaning of the Constitution and democratically passed laws. What’s more, the courts and policymakers seem determined never to define what "diversity" is supposed to look like in practice, leaving the concept vague and open to endless interpretation. This undermines the very foundation of equal protection and the rule of law, allowing for arbitrary and inconsistent application of policies.
When laws are manipulated to favor specific groups, they erode the core democratic value of equal treatment for all. True equality before the law demands a return to meritocracy, where individuals are judged based on their abilities, not their group identity. It means rejecting the notion that diversity must be imposed through quotas or special treatment and returning to the ideal of equal opportunity-where success is determined by effort, ability, and qualifications, not predefined group outcomes.
In conclusion, the push for "equal opportunity" is often a thinly veiled demand for group-based equality. This demand distorts the plain meaning of both the Constitution and democratically enacted laws, undermining the principle of equal protection and paving the way for a legal system that prioritizes group identity over individual merit. If we are to uphold the ideals of fairness and democracy, we must reject policies that impose group rights and return to a system where equal opportunity means equal treatment for all, regardless of race, gender, or other characteristics.
The reason they ban things like IQ tests is because they are actually racist and without evidence belief black people are dumber then them. Notice how much the anti-racist crowd is white and how often they talk about guilt. They are projecting, but refuse to change themselves. Just about every problem is caused by people trying to justify why their personal sin isn't that bad.
This is just a thought, but sometimes as a male, when you talk about issues it feels good in that moment, but you know that it is only temporary. Tomorrow things will just go back to how it was, and you are back in the same place you were at. I think we want something to permanently change in our lives so we can live a better life, and not just talk. For example, if you work 70 hours a week, and on the weekend, you have all of these obligations for your family, to fix things around the house and other chores, then before you know it, it is Monday and your back to another 70-hour work week repeating the same thing in constant exhaustion, physical and mental.

I was a stay at Home mom with no money in my IRA or any savings of my own, which was scary at 53 years of age. Three years ago I got a part time job and save everything I make. After 3 years, I am 56 yo and have put $9,000 in an IRA and $40,000 in my portfolio with CFA, Evelyn Infurna. Since the goal of getting a job was to invest for retirement and NOT up my lifestyle, I was able to scale this quickly to $150,000. If I can do this in a year, anyone can.
I know this lady you just mentioned. Evelyn Infurna Services is a portfolio manager and investment advisor. She gained recognition as a former employee at Goldman Sachs; a renowned investor she is. Evelyn Infurna has demonstrated expertise in investment strategies n has been involved in managing portfolios and providing guidance to clients.
I went from no money to lnvest with to busting my A** off on Uber eats for four months to raise about $20k to start trading with Evelyn Infurna. I am at $128k right now and LOVING that you have to bring this up here
She's definitely a top player in the trading world. Her ability to make successful trades is really impressive
She hooked me up with a late-stage fund that got me in on private shares of some hot companies before they hit the market or blew up. Those investments totally paid off when the companies went public and their stocks shot up. Now, I’m stoked because I’m heading into retirement with almost a million bucks in my portfolio.
Any specific guide. I'm from Georgia how do I go about this? I think I'm interested how can I get in touch with Mrs Evelyn
That was refreshing to hear. I've been saying for some time that feminism is more about class issues than sex.
Why not let stoics be stoics and ruminators be ruminators? Why try to change either sex? These differences used to be accepted. Vive La difference💗
Because egalitarianism can't handle the differences. And people want that religiously so it doesn't have to make sense for them to chase it.
Gosh, imagine if the boys had written what they really felt!

Our lifestyle is expensive even when we make little more money at younger ages we aren't making more money when you count everything else. There are to many calculations when trying to look at wage gaps.
In the UK 94 percent of nursery staff female. 84 percent of primary schools teachers female. And 76 percent of all staff female up to 18. Wonderful why boys give up on school.
I think the issue isn't how many women are in those roles, but rather how many of those women are bitter about being in those roles. Ever had a teacher that complains about how little she makes all the time?
Feminism takes that bitterness and turns it toward men. But in this case the only men are boys.

yeah, the whole point of feminism is that it centers women, why would it include men?
So that's why men are antifeminists or mra
Because we live in a society. In one that is composed by women and men. If you try to achieve a social change, you need both sexes. Otherwise, it will just divide people.

As a man, I disagree with the tone that "empathy" is a female virtue. This is a virtue that is seldom role-modelled among men now days in our society, but that isn't to say there have never been male models of empathy, there certainly have been.
What needs to be done is hold tech companies responsible for creating a media atmosphere where elevated discourse is the exception, not the norm. We do not need to silo men into echo chambers dominated by toxic masculinity.
Empathy is killing us. Someone else feels bad so you also feel bad and now you both have to be angry that someone else isn't feeling bad because you're feeling bad.
Sympathy is a virtue. I can feel bad for you that you feel bad, but it doesn't affect my feelings nor do I have to demand other people feel bad.
@@Triaxx2 Anger isn't empathy.
@@Magnulus76 No, but empathy morphs into anger.
@@Triaxx2 What is your point? Lots of emotions can "morph" into other emotions. There is nothing special about empathy in that regard, it depends on the circumstances under which people feel empathy.
She never said there have never been male models of empathy you assumed an exaggerated interpretation of what she said which is what is wrong with debates. Someone says something then says then they must be in favor of the opposite thing. Basically taking it to an extreme rather than understanding what the person is truly saying.
Public schools have dropped the ball on education. Teach b s instead of history math science English and geometry.
I want my daughter to have the same opportunities as my son.
I want my son to have the same opportunities as my daughter.
We including the next Titanic sinking, the coming World War, and economic collapse in this wish?!
I don't want my kids to go to war, but I would rather a son then a daughter do it.
I want my grandkids to have to have a stay at home parent, but I would prefer a daughter rather then a son do it.
And I want to shit Gold.
We are the poor, we ARE America.
To be fair, modern feminism ignores working class women too.
Its an AWFL movement, basically.
They don’t ignore them, they resent and loathe them.
Exactly
I figured this out when I heard women agitating for inclusion into military front line combat units, including special forces. I had to point out to a few people that the women calling for this are usually NOT veterans themselves. If they have daughters, their daughters are usually just about anywhere else except the military in ANY capacity. “Be careful of people who are willing to sign you and yours up for things that they didn’t, couldn’t and wouldn’t allow for them and theirs…”
🙄
On a societal level, we have a valuation problem.
(Neither Christ nor Buddha ever owned a Bugatti Tourbillon.)
A great many of our most "successful" members of society are abject failures as human beings.
Status is a social construct. Money is an abstract concept that only exists in the mind of human beings. Corporate ladders, houses and cars do not make a person.
Narcissists, psychopaths and Machiavellian personality disorders cannot in any way be considered "successful" people, no matter what material they gain or how many people they manage to exploit or manipulate.
By looking at their dossiers, Hitler and Pol Pot were "successful" people - power, wealth, land, title, fame, top of their game etc.
If these superficial and impersonal metrics are what we measure human worth by, we're devaluing ourselves by default.
No one who looks at flimsy crap as their measure of human worth, will ever be content. That discontented person is doomed to be miserable and envious their entire lives. They can only ever need more of what can never be enough.
That works for relationships just as it applies to material possession.
Hello "feminism".
Hello "leftists".
2:30 There is a wage gap and its true - that where I stopped listening.
There is a wage gap when you don’t account for education or industry. When you account for the factors, it is statistically insignificant.
Great, then you have nothing valid to contribute.
@@cuttlefishrabbitThe only thing g you are contributing is lies. Typical of Leftists.
Step 1: Notice something is wrong - Accomplished

Casey LaDelle did a video on a mfr meetup of Class A trucks. It had some competitions. Casey is a heavy haul/tow operator. He reported that the winner of the precision driving competition was a 19 yr old kid who before showing up at the meet up had never been in a big rig, much less driven one IRL. He'd learned his skills from some popular big rig simulator/game online.
This is an interesting finding about "low-achieving" (in school) men pursuing and succeeding in engineering in college. Of course, the downside is these "low-achieving" men were diluting the the representation of women in PECS.
"In a new study published today in the peer-reviewed research journal, Science, NYU researchers find that this disparity is not caused by higher math or science achievement among men. On the contrary, the scholars found that men with very low high-school GPAs in math and science and very low SAT math scores were choosing these math-intensive majors just as often as women with much higher math and science achievement.
“Physics, engineering and computer science [PECS] fields are differentially attracting and retaining lower-achieving males, resulting in women being underrepresented in these majors but having higher demonstrated STEM competence and academic achievement,” said Joseph R. Cimpian, lead researcher and associate professor of economics and education policy at NYU Steinhardt."
This was/is me. I had a 2.0 GPA in high school and hated every single day of it as I thought it was pointless and basically just a holding cell until I was 18. I joined the military and stayed until I figured out what I wanted to do and my college GPA was a 4.0 in my STEM courses.
I agree with her on many points, with one caveat. I'm a man with traditionally masculine habits and interests, but I'm a "ruminator". Talking through my problems and processing my emotions absolutely helps me. There's nothing wrong with that, I'm not abnormal or effeminate. Just because it's not good for most men doesn't mean it's not good for any men. I think people need to remember that tendencies aren't absolute. Don't forget about guys like me.
I do not want my kids to be taught a moral code or moral compass at school, they can learn about philosophy and history and develop a moral compass themselves with lessons from experience and life. I want them to be taught how to count, read, write, sciences, technology, art, music and also home economics. I do not want them morally programed, they learn morals from life experience, making mistakes, excelling at things and the right kind of tuition. Some people never develop a moral compass, this has nothing to do with education, more to do with personality. It is important kids are given guidance in the direction of critical thinking, how to make decisions based on the evidence/information you have or dealing with hard situations. We need to prepare our kids to be as adaptable as possible in a quickly changing World. Some of the most successful people hated school, one even said do not let college or university get in the way of a good education??!! People also learn things and then believe that what they learnt is fact forever, although this will be true at the time facts change with new discoveries and evidence, people need to be aware that even experts are learning. Sometimes a tough life makes adaptable remarkable people, but a tough life can also have the opposite effect. We need to stop interfering with our kids well being and outlook, this is something they should be left to develop themselves, all we can do is guide them a little.
Great opinion here. You include home economics. My mother and her sisters were educated in boarding schools (early 50s) and universities thereafter. They could buy whatever they wanted, but somewhere they all had learned to sew really well and often made their own skirts, Bermuda shorts, cocktail dresses, et c. (I don't remember my grandmother sewing anything.) By the late 1970s, my cohort seemed to think the whole thing was obsolete and silly. But now? I look back and appreciate the brains and skill that it takes to study fabric, cut out a pattern, insert button holes and zippers... and troubleshoot a Singer?? Without the benefit of TH-cam? Good luck. I came to realize that sewing was another feather in the caps of women like my mother who were educated, opinionated, clever, et c...and completely secure in running the house and raising kids.
No , you don't learn morals from life experience. Every moral is listed in the Bible, that is where your moral code comes from.
You don’t learn “morals from life experience”. If you do that what’s the difference in comparison to the morals that criminals have. They have life experience as well. That is for YOU to teach them morals.
@@mikenagy938morals, personal standards, attention to detail and being innovative all develop through a combination of personality traits, education and the society you grow up in. Just reading the bible does not imprint morals on people, although our society has christian morlas and values to some degree, most have been corrupted now or lost. A lot of people instinctively know what the right thing to do is, others do not, or will deliberately do the wrong thing because they revell in chaos and mayhem. So, in my opinion, which is formed from my experiences, a basic moral code comes from the individuals own personality traits, society expectations and a bit of education and guidance. Mostly though, most people automatically know right from wrong, whether they follow what they know is right or wrong comes down to personality traits of the individual.
Being put in a closed room with high likelihood a woman (as most teachers tend to be) and being made to to talk about your feelings and emotional vulnerabilities is uncomfortable even as a grown man.
Imagine being put into that situation as a small boy when you have absolutely zero control over whether you can just *leave* if you no longer feel comfortable giving her answers she didn't want to hear and having your right to have them be challenged and undermined.
No wonder they found it weird, what kind of adult wants to put a small child in the spot like that where the adult has all the power and the child is expected to give them even more?
My boys have one less recess than I had when I was growing up.
