Jocko Willink has led men in some of the toughest modern urban combat. He says the idea that he could force an unwilling SEAL into harm's way is absurd. Leadership capital is limited, and you have to spend it carefully and earn the men's trust.
@GiffLasta Jocko Willink is obviously wrong. Also, no one has appointed men as leaders of their families, and they have no power to make it so if the woman doesn't want it. In the military (Willinks background) you have a rank and those below you are forced to obey.

Damon asks an interesting question: How does modesty* honor a woman's sexual dignity? . (By "modesty" I do NOT mean unflattering, as if the public world should be bereft of female beauty.).
@GiffLasta This is the only one I'm not sure I agree with. Can you say more about what you mean by "honors their own dignity?".

I'm not sure if I own the word "patriarchy" just out of stubborn contrarianism, but I genuinely don't have a better word for "men should aspire to be fathers taking charge of their world." Everyone else benefits when we step up and become who we are longing to be. Fathers rule!.
Kudos for trying to reclaim the word "patriarchy," I guess?. Labels aside, I agree much more than disagree. Young men are drastically in need of non-toxic role models. Without them, inceldom/The Red Pill have an uncontested field in transmuting pain and confusion into misogyny.

I don't see Israel or the Church as a failure. Moreover, I really dislike the (unmasculine) narrative in church that just looks at the Old Testament saints as cautionary tales of how God puts up with screwups. We should also see them as heroes.

Sweet! I gotta give a shout out to @StirlingWisdom for introducing me to the word "coquetting.".
Learned about ‘coquetting’ today from @GiffLasta’s book. Such a unique, healthy, and practical perspective of describing push and pull. Definitely give his book a read!

My tongue-in-cheek take on marital telepathy:.
A Man’s Guide to Telepathy.How to read your wife’s mind like a boss. Telepathy is an essential skill for any husband. Being able to read your wife’s mind really helps in those pesky disconnects. Some think they can get by with “communication,” but don’t be fooled—telepathy is far

"It is YOUR JOB as the man in the relationship to read your woman's mind.". I think I like this guy.
Now for the answer key: . - Yes, obviously, a woman in a relationship should never come up with those kinds of "tests" and try them on her SO. - That being said, I really wish more men would understand that, yes, it is YOUR JOB as the man in the relationship to read your woman's.

Those of you keen on blaming her are missing the secret: hidden inside blame is leadership being offered to you on a silver platter.
The Backhanded Compliment of Blame.Why it's always the man's fault. A lot of guys are fed up with being blamed for everything. They’re responsible for their bad behavior, and somehow the women’s bad behavior too. Any concerns are dismissed with a “man up.” They’re expected to

Just finished a conversation with @GiffLasta and any Christian men looking to date need to watch that episode when it comes out next week.
