Life with Melonie

In this video, I talk about how some men lack emotional intelligence, empathy, and the emotional maturity needed for healthy relationships. We’re discussing male emotional immaturity, poor communication, lack of self-awareness, emotional disconnection, and why so many women are exhausted by men who want love, access, and support without having the emotional skills to give the same in return.

The sexual division of labor and gender roles imposed by religion, school, and the state as social institutions (we need to start naming them) were created as fundamental elements of patriarchy. That's why it's important to revisit historical data. This idea that men are like this and women are like that is the result of historical construction. Men can fully reconstruct their masculinity into something positive, but they don't want to simply because patriarchy benefits them, and therefore they want to maintain their status quo.

Dehumanising a women during pregnancy and in pregnancy labour and giving birth and realising they don’t worry about your pain it’s a living nightmare.

Anyone who thinks that men are oblivious to the way they maliciously treat women is naive. It’s the very definition of gaslighting.

I love hearing perspectives of actual emotionally healthy men.

Men can spend hours mastering a video game and bonding with their game mates. They can develop emotional intelligence. That young man earlier in the video got it. He gave me hope.

They are hard work. I used to think it was just the men I was choosing, I now realise they are mostly all like this.

I found this out last year: Scientific evidence strongly supports this claim. While miscarriages have historically been viewed primarily as a female issue, up to half of early pregnancy losses are due to chromosomal abnormalities. Because the father contributes half of the embryo’s genetic code, poor sperm health is a major contributing factor to miscarriages

Oh wow, just heard a guy in real life saying „the baby is the job of the mother“
And I said „but the mother needs also a shower and a rest“
It’s really horrible how they don’t get that women are living individuals and need also decent human needs…

I am a labor nurse. I have four children. I think it felt like my uterus was trying to rip itself in half, and then like a train drove through my rectum. It is excruciating.

The constant overuse of "bro, bro, bro, bro, bro" is such a turnoff. I don't engage with men whose entire vocabulary consists of "you know, it's like or bro".

3:00 “you’re too sensitive.” My ex used to say that all the time.

So true. When I was married, I cooked 5 pork chops 3 for him and 2 for me. I clearly said that the 2 for me was so I could eat one and take the other for lunch. Although this idiot said he didn't like left overs, he ate my chop! Then complained that I'm greedy and money hungry but when I try to save, he messed it up
Then he was confused on why I couldn't stand him

11:16 also fun fact: the "men are hunters women are caretakers" is pr0paganda. In fact, archeologists found one grave of a 14-16 year old cavegirl that d1ed bc of hunting and was surrounded by hunting tools. They tried every single scenario to prove she was a teenage boy and not a girl, but every single piece of evidence pointed that she was a girl.

Then they realized they never checked the s3x of the hunter grav3s, they just assumed all were male. Then they went back and checked and slightly more than half of the gr4ves of hunters ever found were female and half of the gr4ves of child caretakers were male.

They found that in societies then, children were raised by all, the hunting was done by all. Everything was equally retributed, cause the only way to survive was if they thought as a community and not selfishly.

In fact they found a case of a dude that wanted all the women for himself, tried to make fights, etc and the others threw him out the group and he k.o.ed, cause if this mindset multuliplied everyone would d1e.
This "men are hunters" pr0paganda started way more recently than ppl think.
My source: a videoessay from an archeologist on yt. I'm certain if ppl are interested they can search and find it.

When my husband was a child, if he fell and cried his grandpa would kick him and keep him down. Absolutely disgusting.

Everyone cries, and should cry. It is a healthy way of letting emotions out. If i hear someone shame anyone for crying I'm gonna get p!ssed!

It's simple WHAT EVER you are able to do and get under control in your workplace , you have the skillset to do the same in your home. If you have the capacity to not lash out at colleagues, to perform your duties on time and with attention to quality, to remain collected and patient with annoying clients... and so on. If bossing around your family is your only way to feel big, you are not a leader, you are a bully.
