Men "slouch themselves into a joke of a man that's portrayed in sitcoms..." I have been making this exact same case to people for years! I love how you call out shows like "Everybody Loves Raymond" and "King of Queens" those are the two I always use as examples.
Hey thanks for the work you are doing. God Bless you, and how can I be able to contact you through email I have some good questions to ask you. Keeping the faith, all the way without compromise. God love you.
@UltraDOG17 I do not think there needs to be a men's rights movement. It will be construed to be anti-woman or abusive to women or misogynistic. We are very pro-woman for REAL women. We are not in favor of women acting as men. Men just need to be real men so their wives can be real women and raise their daughters to be real women. These feminists are not happy and cause a lot of misery in forcing other girls to live their warped way of life.
It's pretty sad nowadays that these young fellows look to rappers and rock stars(the World) to know what masculinity is like! You know how sloppy dressed, disrespectful to woman, vulgar, etc. this bad roll models are! I'm glad you are bringing up serious issues like these! I here little or nothing about them anywhere else!
Thank you for the video sir, you have really spoken to me and I feel like you are absolutely correct. It seems like a never ended process to try to better ones life and family. You have opened my eyes.
@neosoontoretro That sounds ridiculous because it is. Instead of manipulating things by extracting one point, how about watching the whole video, or the whole series while you're at it, and then making a logical comment based on the whole philosophy. It's lazy, sloppy little boys in men's bodies and bossy, naggy, and controlling women that are ruining today's American family. This design brought to you by the American feminist movement--nobody is happy and kids are suffering for it.
@citadelcatholicmedia I did watch the whole video and quite frankly the whole argument is ridiculous. The idea that husbands and fathers can't dress casually among their own family.That feminism is a malevolent movement to castrate men. And that men should lead and women should follow. Sorry, but I saw your argument as nothing more but an advocate for patriarchy.
@neosoontoretro It is PRECISELY advocating patriarchy. This is what is missing in today's family. Ever since patriarchy was snatched from men and feminists have taken over, the family has been in ruins. If you see it any other way, you are in denial. Patriarchy is Biblical and when practiced throughout history has made for a stable, strong family life.
@citadelcatholicmedia Why is it that men should rule and women should follow? Why can't both parties have equal importance in the family unit? Patriarchy supposedly being Biblical is not a good enough reason. Many Christian Egalitarians would disagree with you.
@neosoontoretro They are most definitely of equal importance, but only 1 can lead. God has appointed the father of the family as leader. Most Christians in the US especially will disagree. This is why most families are dysfunctional. Why? Because mothers naturally nurture and are sympathetic so they give in to their children's wants even when they are not good for them. Then when the kids are older, the mom is not strong enough to control them once she has given in so much...continued
@citadelcatholicmedia This begs the question why must one lead? And how do you know it is in God meant for men to be the leader's in their families? Also, you generalize most mothers as giving in to whatever their child wants when many fathers have done the same. And why is it that father can't be just as nuturing as the mother?
@neosoontoretro It appears you don't have a family. You'd have to be in it to see it play out. It starts when a woman has a baby--she is naturally intended to bear it and nurture it by her anatomy. This is how I know what God intended. She is weak and vulnerable at delivery and post-partum. The husband protects and provides, yes even nurtures in a masculine way. Thus he is the leader--why must one lead? This is just the way humans do things-1 president, 1 pope, 1 king...to be in charge
@citadelcatholicmedia A woman is weak in delivery but you're saying that she is weak in general. And the wife can be such as much of the protecter and provider as the woman. In addition, the men shouldn't be assigned leardership just because he is a man. Yes, there is one President but the President doesn't led the country alone.
@neosoontoretro The reference to pregnancy is to the "why" that men should lead. Men and women are not interchangeable. Sure women have proved that they can do many of the jobs men do, but it has been absolute disaster for the family. Cite for me a scenario where you have seen 2 leaders in a family and it work out. The President has the final call in matters in his office. He is subject to higher authority but has others under his charge. The same with the father in the family.
@neosoontoretro Dads should LEAD not RULE. God made men stronger to protect those who are weaker, not to dominate them. A woman's greatest desire is to be protected. A woman who is loved and protected does not strive and does not compete. Her beauty shines forth and she fits well into her role as nurturing under the wing of her loving husband, her prince. In this case children see how she respects him, and they respect them both. I've seen this work time and again. Try it.
@citadelcatholicmedia Patriarchy is defined by male rule and not just leadership. A woman's isn't weak just because men are physically stronger. Women can obtain the same physical strength as men and not all women desire to be protected. A woman can protect a man just as much as man can protect her. One doesn't have to be submissive to other in order for there to be mutal respect.
@neosoontoretro definition--a form of social organization in which a male is the head of the family and descent, kinship, and title are traced through the male line; I can't locate your definition with any regard to "rule"; it seems you've made that up; if women could obtain the same strength as men, why don't they--they cannot, God physically made men and women different--check and see.
@citadelcatholicmedia No, I didn't make that up "Patriarchy literally means "rule of fathers". Women have obtain the same strength as men. Check and see.
@neosoontoretro Cite your definition. In sporting events, girls are separated from boys at a certain age so the girls won't get hurt. There are some anomalies which are often pointed out in discussions as these but there will always be a stronger man than the strongest woman. This one of the "why's" as to why men lead that you asked about.
Television is a lot worse than he says. Television not only stifles creativity, but it makes people shallow and emotional, and restless. When real world problems simply aren't resolved or addressed quickly as they often are in films and TV people would give up on them or ignore them as if they might go away on their own. This fosters a small attention span and a perpetual desire to be entertained.
@WICKETSHAN No, sir, we're dead serious. You would do well to pay attention. But thanks to you and your buddies y'all have given us our best 2 days ever. Y'all keep watching, you might learn something you'll need someday.
Love the talk. In the writings of the great Catholic mystic, Maria Valtorta, Jesus speaks of His family during His public years. You want to get your hands on this work. How He praises His putative father, Joseph, is just beautiful. You will never understand what a model family is until you get Jesus' impression of His Holy Family. Garry.
The current frenzy to undermine fatherhood, or dispense altogether with a father's role in the family, is man's final, ill-fated attack on Truth. Having largely "dispensed" of The Son and His Mother, the enemy now has his sights on none other than The Father - the very ground of all being - Himself. That's what's really going on. One commentator, addressing the recent unprecedented riots by youths across the UK opined that it was the fruit of decades of "divorce, disillusion and dadlessnes".
@Naturalhit Yes, so did I Edgar, and it's as hot as it gets here in La. We've been having heat indexes over 100 degrees for the last month and the humidity is almost unbearable. But a man I have a lot of respect for tipped me off to this subtle point that makes a world of difference. How about an experiment: try it for 30 days around home, and see if it doesn't make a difference. Then try going back. (Obviously it doesn't apply while your exercising.)
You know how I feel about this already, but some great saints have been overweight, and it's no crime.
The problem with gluttony is not in its results (results, by the way, which vary,) but in its lack of moderation, which trains people not to be able to control their urges; not to be able to fast, or to go without food if needbe. That's what gluttony is.
Other than that, great job, and another great video.
Hello ccm! I meant to tell you this a while ago, but I didn't get around to it... last month, I bought a book called 'How To Win Friends & Influence People'. It was originally written in the 1930s by a brilliant man named Dale Carnegie. It has been updated subsequently by both himself and his wife. It is one of the first self-help books and has sold over 15 million copies. It is one of the best books I have ever read, and I strongly recommend it to you and to your viewers.
Well said, my friend. I am a single man but what you say applies to us single men as well as to married men. We men seem to have completely forgotten what it means to be a man. We belong to the Church militant and it is time that we started acting as true soldiers of Christ. We need to regain our sense of Honor and integrity. We must remember that we were made in the image and likeness of God Himself!
Thank you for taking the time to make these videos that encourage us to be honorable men.
It goes to show, if you lose the sense of the SACRED... you lose it in yourself and others. No one will give you respect above what you demand of yourself. It is also impossible to stick with "do as I say"....when I won't do it myself..
My father (God rest his soul) and mother had 11 children throughout the baby-boom years (1948-64) We were raised in a strict (Irish) Catholic home. My father was a corporate attorney, so we always had plenty of the things NEEDED for a comfortable home life. Can you imagine 13 people at the same table every night for dinner? When needed my father would "discipline" us (disciple and discipline have the same root word) us as needed...even physical discipline sometimes. This is what is missing now.
Well said, sir! Another factor is the intimidation of the media and fear of The Man (government) leads to a desire to keep our heads below the ramparts.
We need to pray for that great Christian male virtue - COURAGE.
Spot on observations. As a former traditional Catholic school teacher I constantly urged the families to remove the TV from the home. For the most part I was ignored as a result we teachers were able to pick out the children and families who watched TV. The children had a 20 minute attention span and in families the woman ruled the home. In most cases she, literally, wore the pants in the home.
Man, I am so glad that your videos are so spot on. I have been passing these videos to friends and family. They have been very helpful. And by God's Grace My brothers and I have been nurtured this way by our dad. He has done a wonderful job. Hats off to you and keep them coming!!!!!!!!
