Men and fathers mocked and hated. Boys conditioned by feminist ideals. #metoo out of control. Jordan Peterson says masculinity is needed, more than ever, in this society and I agree. In this video, I explain why this is important and why our entire society will be torn apart if we don't let masculinity return.

Growing up with a single mother, who I love and respect very much, I can tell you from personal experience that I needed a Father. I am fortunate that I was naturally inclined towards pursuing masculine passions, such as hunting and fishing which led me to find masculine role models. Many other boys are not so fortunate. Now I am a father and am so grateful that my children have BOTH a father and a mother. I am so tired of the "state" encouraging the destruction of the family unit. Cold, calculated efforts for destroying masculinity and ultimately our free society.

@oldgoat142 5 лет назад

Kevin Stover I am a single father of 3, now young adult girls. It was a very hard road most times, but they are as well adjusted as can be in spite of a long-time absentee mother. I stuck it out when the only legal responsibility I had was to cut them a check once a month, and the Dept of Child Support Enforcement took that from me, but they couldn't take them from me. Stay strong. As Melody Tenisch and James Mitchell said, your boys need you. Discipline with love and teach them daily to be men. Set the example each and every day. It will not be easy a lot of times but I promise you, when they mature into the good men you mold them to be, you can stand tall and say to them, "I am proud of you." Sons need to hear that from their fathers. May God bless you and watch over you and your family in all future endeavors.

I became the man I am, the moment both my parents were dead. I am a father and was a father before they died. But it dawned to me, that I don't carry the title son anymore.. My pillars of trust was suddenly gone, and I had to find my purpose in a new setting. For me that was the first moment of my journey to real manhood. I loved both my parents very much, but I don't miss them as much as I should. Maybe because I knew that I now are carrying a bit of both in me, and that my every decision from then on, would be mine, and not influenced by anyone else.. no one.. just me. A man..

@threethrushes 4 года назад

You are lucky to have had parents who parented you. Many 'men' grow up in intensely chaotic single-mother household, with no male role model. My own father died when I was young, and I was raised to be a simp. It's probably no surprise that I don't have any relationship with my elderly mother, who might as well be dead. I remember when I was teenager begging the universe to let me have just five minutes with my father...

I agree with that in society in general. Liberalism went too far and led to a financial collapse. People are starting to wake up to redress the balance. Police aren't trying to be as soft any more... It's not as uncommon as it was 10 years ago to voice conservative views. Men want their masculinity back. People need their services running properly. Police need to be able to police and everyone with any sense knows it. I honestly think that the wheel is turning and we're going back to older ways. We'll never have the hardened men of 50 years ago but it's getting a lot better I think.

Itnetlolor I find it strange that men like yourself are complaining about masculinity being diminished and painted in a negative light, but then in the same breath putting down women and transgender men who want to embody that same masculinity. If being masculine is so great and important, and you feel that not enough men are embodying this strength, then why are you discouraging that same masculinity in women and transgender men? It’s not as if those people being masculine somehow takes away manhood from other men, and if anything, they could be helping to bring a positive perspective back to masculinity in a society which you complain is turning away from it. Let people who want to be manly be manly. It’s better than discouraging masculinity from existing altogether. We need both the feminine and masculine in this world, and there’s no rule that says each role is only assigned to one gender. It sounds like you just don’t want more men to compete with, but it doesn’t have to be that way. We can uplift and support each other.

A man gets his self-worth from his productivity, from good ideas that come to fruition, from the point he can look backward and see the markers in the road that led him upward. He builds a house with his bare hands and forever can look at it as "i did that" as a firm and real thing. Ask a Ford worker. He may go home every night sore and even angry but barely underneath is the huge pride he feels when he thinks, "Look at that, i built 800 cars today." You want to wreck a man? Take away his ability and willingness to produce anything, give him things for free, make him think he doesnt have to work at all. Watch him decline. Thats how to crush a man to pieces. Look carefully at the face of a 93 year old man when you tell him he should give up driving. Look at his fear of loss of pride and usefulness. You want to keep a man from ever becoming one? Tell him he doesnt have a be a good father or even a father at all, tell him to listen to his govt which claims to know better about caring for his life. We think of WWII vets as being real men. Well i'll tell you that real manliness never left us but we left it by being made to believe there is no such thing as manliness, the only real or important thing is being equal at the bottom of a collective. Dont stand out. Be beige, and be quiet. I want to know real men and real women and give each their space and their due.
