"if you're gonna hang out with women why not just hang out with men?"
as a gay man... this is definitely fruity
LOLOL
True 💪
They're THIS close to self-discovery.
Of course that self-discovery would break their brain....
Shhhh they’re super straight...they said it sooo many times..they’re still trying to convince themselves as well as convince us...but they’re like totally straight..duh!
Open up and suckle down on that gay juice, Marty!
“Emotional sex” is so funny because it means these guys are so against being close to women for things other than sex that they think any kind of closeness to a woman is inherently sexual.
They can just get it from men
lol they prob are referring to a literal crush but have no point of reference bc of no life experience ugh it’s so sad
This is an unfortunately very prevalent attitude, explicitly and implicitly (the former being most present in fundamentalists, the latter in non-fundamentalists, most typically) within Christianity.
@Babba Yaaga muslims as well !! i kinda stop going to a few mosques in my city bc the men or even their wives's or children look at me in disgust bc im not wearing a hijab i always wear muslimah clotes and i still feel undomfortable honestly, i ask this to my friend and he said "you better not look something that might give you lust" like... tf ? you got horny from looking at womens hair or what ? yeah i cut all ties with my friend shortly after that lol
@Babba Yaaga yup they called it purpling in my ministry smh

How they keep saying "platonic friendships"- Brother that's just a friendship

It implies they have erotic friendships

@@DeathnoteBB 😏
They talk about feminism like the only feminist content they consume is “crazy feminist owned compilation part 13”
it very well might be. it's sort of encouraged in groups like that to never engage with the "enemy".
It literally is
Men like this hate feminists because it gives women the ability to say no instead of being property
@fright car what about feminism isnt needed? it aims to promote a healthy culture free from the negative expectations placed on the sexes? i think now more than ever its needed
@fright car abortion is literally being banned in texas what the fuck are you talking about
edit: also in a lot of countries, trans people are being stripped of their rights. trans issues are inherently feminist issues because there are a) trans women and b) trans men/enbies with uteruses. sex workers barely have any rights and are treated as criminals. i realize i might come off as aggressive but that's because i feel like a stance like that needs to be challenged. until gender is literally gone from the world, feminism will be important, because feminism isn't just "women's rights to do stuff".
Being heterosexual seems so stressful. This is the dating pool that straight women have to pick from?! 😦
No. The pool is much bigger than that. Fortunately.
For me I have a different reaction.
“Ohhhhh THIS is why it’s so easy for me? Because I treat people like equal human beings?”
Nah there's much better men, fortunately :D (seriously an example could be one topic and his friendgroup)
Ikr, so glad I don't need to enter the dumpster fire that is the dating world
As “one of the good ones,” (I feel weird using that statement) I’ve gotta say, I’m sorry and embarrassed and sorry that all straight women have to go through this
what makes me chuckle is how they "don't wanna pursue friendships with women for the sake of their future wives" but how they gonna get wives if they're avoiding all female contact hahahaha
The irony, but it's good they destined that fate upon themselves.

@@quest8447 Truth. These guys are ankle biters in comparison to the rest of...well, a lot of people who aren't insufferable douchebags who think they're better than others simply because they are men, have way TOO many followers, and as they put it "close to God and Jesus". They're just obnoxious and loud. The more clout we give them, the more they'll spew their nonsense out on the rest of us who are just simply trying to enjoy life and make it day by day without being judged simply because of the color of our skin, or gender and sex, who we choose to go out with or marry, or what friends we have, what food we eat, etc....the list is quite frankly exhausting and long to go through. This whole podcast gives me such a huge amount of second-hand embarrassment for just how dimwitted and willingly ignorant they are.... and *condescending*, and using their own religious beliefs to excuse being a misogynistic, transphobic/homophobic asshole. Sadly this isn't even new, it's just that these guys are pushing their platforms of hate around and people watch them and give them views/ratings/followers. Like a little dog who just took a dump on your living room carpet and looked at you excitedly and tried to show that they have done something good, when reality - it's just shit.
@@RevanRA It's not a excuse to be that way , it's living the right way. Have you thought of it this way if Adam and Eve didn't sin you'd be a Christian. I don't want you to think I'm showing my "beliefs" on you. We're not hateful or judgmental we only want to help and do the right thing. These men still have a lot to learn coming from a woman😅 But I prefer Adam and Eve's mistake other wise Jesus didn't do His beautiful sacrifice.❤

As a bi woman I think it’s HILARIOUS when men say you shouldnt be friends with the opposite sex, like if we’re going by logic I couldn’t be friends with anyone
@@incognita1797wtf
@@theonewhosthere he said men are only sexually and romantically attracted to walking fleshlights, not women with personalities or a sense of humour. translation: men are vapid scum
The sad thing is that this is exactly why so many straight people don't trust us. They don't see it as possible to be just friends with people of the gender they're attracted to, so they perceive us bi people as sex-crazed and dyed in the wool cheaters.
For bisexuals, there is only prey.
@@incognita1797 You are out of your mind if you genuinely believe this.
I went to Catholic school with John Michael in 8th grade. He was pretty much an arrogant bully. Below is what I remember of him:
He made fun of the guys who liked Lord of the Rings. Once, he railed into them because he found it stupid that they were saying aloud the title abbreviation, LotR, as “LO-DER”. (His struggle to grasp acronyms goes way back. If he had actually watched or read LotR, he wouldn’t need to lament “lack of close male friendships in media”.)
His looks made him popular with the girls. Our paths crossed sometimes as I was constantly on mission to blend in with all the other girls, in the hopes that being normal would make me less of a target for bullying.
On one occasion, I was lucky enough to sit at the edge of the popular girls’ table. Johnathan spoke in a very sexually explicit way to and about the girls. He recounted an incident in which he had seen one of the girls present getting out of the shower, and that he had seen her breasts. He teased her about their small size, and talked about feeling them up. Having come from a sheltered environment, I remember feeling so shocked by his gross behavior.
Another time, I was huddled around a year book in a group of girls with Johnathan. He started ridiculing the photos of people he believed to be ugly losers. Eventually, he pointed to my picture and made a comment about my supposed ugliness- Dead silence. No one laughed. I remember thinking, “He really doesn’t realize I’m standing right here, right in front of him.” The lack of response from the other girls tipped him off to my presence, so he fumbled about and tried to act like that’s not what he meant. At the time, it really hurt, but in hindsight, it’s pretty funny to have witnessed his lack of situational awareness cause him some mild embarrassment.
I like to think that people improve with time, but it’s likely that he’s more or less the same as he was 15+ years ago, albeit now with a public persona that presents as squeaky-clean & Christian. This man really do be 30 years old acting like he’s 13. :/
anyone can be saved
I am so sorry you had to deal with him when you were younger, but thank you for sharing! What a disturbingly sexist individual.
"Same sex affection is not same sex attraction". " You can't be friends with a girl bc friendship is relationship without sex"
Must be hella confusing to be them.
lmaooo so true
wow u sound very condenSENDing zülal
(also i 100% agree, the amount of contradiction in 10 mins in that "podcast"😩)
It IS hella confusing. I grew up in this world, and I've come to understand that Christianity is both hypersexualized and sexually starved, since they are taught to avoid sexual temptation CONSTANTLY, yet are not taught to look at women in any way other than potential sexual temptation... It's a cruel irony, and insanity. And, IMO, explains why so many of them get busted for sexually deviant behavior.
And this podcast is the blind leading the blind. Sad. 🤦♂️
@@TheGuardDuck there’s a reason the vatican is sus. Religion in general makes s*x such a taboo. S*xual suppression often leads to hypers*xuality or straight up s*xual deviance/crime.

The chadcast
@@Awesomeness785 more like trashcast
Well if you watch a show about bear or chimps at National Geographic, the narration is spoken by a human instead of a chimps.
Their talk about not being able to spend time with women they aren't dating/married to has "Mike Pence refusing to be left alone with a woman and bringing his wife everywhere" energy. Like it's not the respectful move they think it is ; it's just them admitting they don't know how to act around women
Not only that but it shows they don't value women other than as a partner? Like they see a woman and their minds just go to "must have sex to talk or be friendly"
And to go further, I don't think they value women as humans either tbh. To them it's just 'woman = friend you have sex with but you cannot not have sex' which is what dating is for most people anyway. And when it comes to half of the population it's just dating. Do they realize they have moms even? Women can be a whole a lot to you, sisters, friends, girlfriends etc. and yet they see women as not even human, alongside men.
@@suddypahp5224 they straight up believe the only women with LITERALLY ANY VALUE TO THEM are ones they can sleep with. shocked pikachu face when they get called sexist.
Growing up in a fundie church I wasn’t allowed to be alone with any man/boy besides my family, it’s a pretty prevalent thing
it’s a huge thing for fundamentalists. my dad used to bring me along when my mom wasn’t available if he had to talk to a woman at church. it’s called the billy graham rule :/ (obviously bc it was propagated by the protestant king of absent fathers and shitty husbands: billy graham)
@@AnnaRenee wait, like not even your dad or your brother?
6:40 “if a woman felt that it’s offensive then it’s offensive doesn’t matter if you were contending it or not it doesn’t matter” proves that none of these men paid any attention to their work place sexual harassment training.
They’re influencers, they probably have never been in a workplace with an HR department
I would not feel safe by myself with any of these dudes. And this is coming from a Christian woman….
Your God-given intuition serves you well. None of these dudes are followers of Christ because their message is the opposite of His. They're dehumanizing and rejecting loving relationships with women; Christ humanized, uplifted, talked to, accepted, and redeemed women. The difference is like night and day.
@@FloppityFlopFlop777 I disagree. I don't see how Christianity is not mired in sexism, when we are expected to submit to our husbands as we submit to GOD. Scripture has very specific teachings that a woman's natural body and menstruation makes her impure, that she must hide herself to be cleansed and not be touched for a week after. Eve was famously made from a rib of Adam (weird since in real life men come from a woman's body) after his first mate Lilith didn't submit to him. The story of Eve and the serpent teaches that the pain of childbirth is the fault of a woman. None of this reads as respectful, peaceful, or loving. "Love thy neighbor" falls kinda flat when there's so many unloving ways Christians are expected to treat their female members. Religion is wielded as a cudgel against women worldwide, for the simple fact of them being women.
I do not deny that Christianity is responsible for good deeds, inspiration, and community across the world. But I also believe it's intellectually dishonest to say that Christianity serves women like it does men. How on earth can we expect text and teachings from 2000 years ago to NOT be intrinsically tied to sexism?
@bean dog LOL what?
I’ve never heard of the teaching that a woman’s natural body and menstruation makes her impure-and I’m Christian and was raised in the church. The Bible teaches that God created BOTH man and woman in His own image (Genesis 1:27). Anything that opposes that statement is false teaching.
Eve was created from Adam’s rib; Eve is Adam’s first and ONLY wife.
The Christian Bible does not mention Lilith as Adam’s first wife or as a wife at all. In the Christian Bible, Lilith is only mentioned once (Isaiah 34:14) in reference to a night creature, night bird, or a screech owl.
*Note: The name “Lilith” does not appear in every translation (e.g. KJV, NIV).
The Lilith you’re thinking of is found in Jewish religion-Judaism-as well as folklore. Christianity and Judaism are two different religions, so please do not confuse or combine the two.
According to the Bible, Eve gave birth to all humankind-except Adam-after her creation, which I believe is why we all come from a woman.
The Bible teaches that pain in childbirth was multiplied (Genesis 3:16) because of Eve’s sin, implying that childbirth was never going to be completely painless. Likewise, Adam was also punished for his sin. Notice that God didn’t appear until after BOTH Eve and Adam sinned (see Genesis chapter 3, any version). Thus, we have this verse: “For all have sinned and fallen short of the glory of God” (Romans 3:23 ESV).
Still, God loves women-why would He hate His own children? There are plenty of revered women in both the Old and New Testament: Ruth, Deborah, Rahab, Esther, the Virgin Mary, Mary Magdalene and many more. Women are valued in God’s Kingdom just as much as men.
Men are told to “love their wives… husbands should love their wives as their own bodies. He who loves his wife loves himself” (Ephesians 5:25-28 ESV).
If you ever see a Christian treating women as a whole in an unloving way, then they aren’t a Christian; they just claim to be. On Judgement Day, God will say to these people, “I never knew you; depart from me, you workers of lawlessness” (Matthew 7:23 ESV).
You can trust that the Bible can be applied even 2000 years into the future-and counting-because the Bible says so. All Scripture is God-breathed (2 Timothy 3:16-17), therefore, it can be trusted. If you cannot accept this, you aren’t a Christian. Rejecting the Bible is the same as rejecting God (Hosea 9:17, Luke 10:16, John 12:48). It’s as simple as that.
Hope this helps!

"Women should treat their Husbands like they would Jesus Christ" Pretty sure that's like, literal idol worship
No - Idol worship would be failing to recognize Christ as Lord, and putting another before him. Woman honoring their husbands as they would Christ still place Christ as the highest standard. And this SHOULD go both ways - the point is that all of us have a speck of divine inspiration within us, made in the image of God, and thus we should imbue other humans with a certain measure of dignity and respect. This is the literal foundation for the Western notion of human rights. Also consider Matthew 25:40 "And God will answer, "Whatever you did for any of my people, no matter how unimportant they seemed, you did it for me" ' - this shows that because we're divinely inspired, good treatment of our fellow humans is akin to good treatment of God, and in fact a means of worshipping God. Also consider the parable of the good Samaritan - the idea that we should love our neighbor as ourselves, but also be the loving neighbor even if the other person doesn't deserve it, because we're respecting that the other person is a fellow creation of God. I imagine the verse these guys are drawing from is Ephesians 5:22 - "Wives, submit to your own husbands, as to the Lord". Submission doesn't necessarily mean blind, silent obedience - it means allowing and encouraging your husband to be the spiritual leader of the family unit. Because we've been so intent on erasing differences between sexes and replacing them with a spectrum of genders, we haven't questioned the functional roles these differences can play - An ideal family structure features man as spiritual leader, providing for his family and imparting high values, and woman as nurturer, demonstrating God's love to her family and creating a positive environment for the family. Both roles equally important, and both difficult to fully embody - not all men are cut out for leadership, and not all women are cut out for nurturing, and yet we must put God first and let him help us become who we were meant to be. Likewise, men are instructed to love their wives as Christ loved the church - this is as important as Ephesians 5:22, though many men do fail to live up to it.
@@bradyhayes9818 Im not gonna treat by husband like a God.
@@camillashimwa7671 As you shouldn't - wives are called to HONOR their husbands as they would honor God. That is, to have a willing and giving spirit, and to be faithful and loving. This doesn't mean wives are supposed to shut up and do whatever their husbands say, especially if the husband's demands conflict with God's. Rather, wives are to approach marriage considering how they might build up their husband through love and respect so that he might lead the family down the righteous path, though she ultimately serves God first. Likewise, the husband is to be a loving and gracious leader, walking with God and providing for his family. Though we are to 'submit' to God's will, he has given us free will so that we might choose his leadership, and he does not rule through fear and force. Likewise, the husband should not be sitting around thinking about the ways in which his wife could better serve his needs - that is her job. His job is to think about how he could better lead his family and serve them. Put simply, the Biblical recommendation is to be in servitude to your husbands, wives, your families. If submission was truly, and only, tyrannical, why should we submit to God? Submission is not derogatory - it is spiritually powerful. As Christians, we take power in empowering others through acts of selflessness. This is obviously a bit counterintuitive, because as humans, we tend to think of power as a means of controlling other people.
Some things are literal some things are figurative
@@bradyhayes9818 girl i aint reading your essay. Thé only person who I will treat and honour like God is God himself. Will I love my husband? Of course. Will I respect him? Of course. But will I bow down to him and worship him like he is God? No way.

ikr?? my boyfriend, although actually an introvert, tends to be sociable (unlike me haha) so he made quite a few friends while being an exchange student at my high school (how we met) - including the children of the host he was with - and some of them were girls. But he didn't really treat them different, he just was nice to everyone. I remember falling harder for him after seeing him interact with the daughters of the host family so genuinely - he even once sent me a picture after he let a couple of them put makeup on him lol~ It was adorable. (I think part of it was also because he wishes he had a little sibling growing up but he's an only child, so - either way, he's a precious man.)
Admittedly there was one time where I felt a little bad when he was interacting with another exchange student who was a girl - but that's because there was a misunderstanding on my end and I thought he liked her (and i have very low self-esteem due to my depression, so that didn't help) - we were both very oblivious to each other's feelings for a long time lmao.

@@joshualai5359 they honestly explained it well, its just a man explaining something in a condescending way, im not sure if this refers to a man explaining something exclusively to women or if it includes other genders but examples include men trying to explain cars and stocks and all that
@@joshualai5359 They were right that it is when a man explains something to a woman in a condescending way, but it also usually involves a topic that the woman is already more well-versed in than said man. An example could be a cisgender man explaining how periods work to a cisgender woman. It undermines the woman's first-hand experience and implies that they know more than she does, despite the fact that it is her lived experience. Another one could be a man who has taken one coding class explaining how computer science works to a female who is a programmer by profession.
Their podcast is the perfect example of group think cus they all reinforce each other rather than challenging one another to keep thinking about what they believe…

It was just so natural for us to be friends. Wtf
I knew there was a lot of men out there who complained about women wanting only friendship. But I had no idea that there were men who didn't think male and female friendships even existed
The amount of projection in every one of their stories about women is...astounding.
seriously,, they're so obnoxious
FRRR
Not surprising though, always projection and hypocrisy.
I was in a church which was more of a room above a store. Anyway projection was HUGE. Im a guy and one time they were preying me and one of them, this john legend lookalike, made this quip 'rebuking' my feminine spirit. I was humiliated it was in front of the other guys there. It was really bad and horrible. The other guys were always attacking my perceived lack of masculinity. Theyd REVILE my cross earring, it was literally everything they represent and they HATE IT. Now i believe Jesus is lord so i forgive em. BUT they better not. In anither church they had a whole ass exorcism ritual cuz they thought i was gay. Like im really not sexually promiscuous but still.

It bugs me how many people don't recognize that a key element of mansplaining is that the woman already understands what is being "explained" to her, often better than the man. Sometimes they are literal experts on the topic being explained to them. It's the assumption that you couldn't possibly know what you're talking about or already understand that makes it so infuriating.
That is the best explanation I've read for mansplaining. Thank you!
Why it has to be specifically mansplaining? There is lots of other words for phenomena you explained quite specifically in your comment.
@@panepena7715 No, there aren't other words to describe the phenomenon of men "explaining" things at women who already understand the topic. It's called mansplaining because it's rooted in the sexist assumption that women don't understand what they're talking about.
@@nonaide Wouldnt that be a bit specific case to invent the word? Dont women do that too? Anyone with big ego does that. It may also come from experiences and assuming that the motive is sexist and making up words based on it is redicilous.

The “she’s not going to respond to your dms” that bignik said at the end. Why was their reaction so…excited? It’s a very stupid and over used joke, they have never heard someone say it before?
It’s funny how some Christians always bring up that women should submit to their husbands and honour them like God but will never bring up the fact that under that phrase it says that men should want to die for their wives and love them how Christ loves the church. 🤔
tell it!!!!! so true
First, you don't seem christian I would like you to know no one ever says to treat the husband like God. These dudes are a minority of a minority in a religion of 2 billion but yes, submitting to your husband is true as men should save their wives. Why is submitting to your husband or wife wrong? Both have roles in the family. Its okay for someone to submit and slave over their boss and work but for your family its somehow wrong?

12:18 As an ace person, it’s really wild that these people think the only difference between friendships and relationships is sex.
Oh man, I'm glad somebody else noticed-- I'm not ace (I am queer though, trans guy with a nonbinary fiancé, & we're straight passing IRL which tends to give me a sense of being an undercover spy on this culture), but I am super into romance, and while the best romance has a foundation of healthy friendship it's an entirely different beast with such intense feelings woven into it. Not understanding that honestly makes me feel like they haven't even experienced romantic love at all, just sexual attraction VS friendship. (Which is probably why they define themselves so deeply by their identity as heterosexual men, too.)
Not from lacking the ability to feel romantic attraction, but from not seeing their partners as human enough to get that passionate to begin with. It's nuts. You can hear it in the way they talk about girls. A partner to them is the 1 girl they think is sexually attractive and stay at home wife material enough to motivate them to suppress their sexual attraction for other women and commit to just the one. Incredibly objectifying, takes all the magic out.
One more note is that I think this makes guys (and the women stuck with them who know they aren't taken seriously) like this way more likely to cheat on their partners. Not that cheating is always logical, but a culture of defining relationships so much around sex means that if you get sexually attracted to anyone else while in a relationship there's not going to be enough of a deeper bond there to stop you from cheating for momentary thrill.
Majority of the time, sex becomes a little more familiar (not bad, just familiar) the longer you spend with someone, but I don't think a deep connection with someone can ever stop feeling novel if it's authentic. Almost six years into my relationship and I still wake up feeling like I'm a teenager experiencing their first love.
yes!! arospec ace here, these men really need to learn about the different types of attraction and relationships smh
Straight allosexuals should really hang out with aces and listen to them explain different types of attraction because not everything is just "sexual attraction." Many straight allosexuals don't like learning about queer relationships, so they also don't know that people experience relationships and attraction differently from them.
ikr??? this thought is so shallow
HONESTLY
I feel like the biggest thing with feminism in the church is both recognizing that many of these men are just straight up sexist and predatory. But also, that a lot of the women in the church try to hide it, make excuses for it, or just dismiss it. I'm terrified of some churches because as loving as they pretend to be, its only when you do exactly what they say AND get the result that they want.
Boys like these are exactly where it starts. If you cant have a platonic relationship with a woman then that means you only see her having one purpose. If your wife is angry that you have relationships with "random woman" its because one, shes toxic, and two, thats how you see them. I dont have random relationships with men. I have FRIENDS. I HAVE FAMILY. Men have more "use" to me than sexual pleasure. A deep emotional connection does not constitute sex. Saving yourself till marriage is a whole nother thing. There is nothing wrong with having a platonic relationship with the opposite sex. It teaches you important things. Obviously, they have yet to have any good ones.

“There’s nothing you can get from a friendship with a girl that you can’t get from a friendship with a guy. So girl friendships are unnecessary” yeah but. Hot take here. It’s not the gender of the friend that matters, it’s about the unique person. You can’t just exchange one person for another and expect the same experience cause every person is unique. It’s about the personality. I know, controversial opinion here.
And earlier in the podcast, they literally said you shouldn’t assign traits to someone based on their gender. So does gender matter or does it not matter?? 😂
Also doesn’t that statement literally put men and women on the same level 😭😂 like he’s saying they both offer the same thing in friendships sooooo why avoid friendships with women?
Let alone the implication that interactions with women are only valuable if they are romantic or sexual.
@@saram3449 yea cuz if its the same then how is one more necessary or unnecessary than the other

"Men are a part of the strong civilization of society" 20:39
I've repeated that out loud 20 times and I'm still worse off as to what the fuck he's on about.
I love the discussion about men not being able to show affection towards each other without being called gay. Yeah? I wonder who started perpetuating that idea? I wonder who helped foster the idea that we need to be accusatory and suspicious of people who may or may not be gay. I wonder why our society feels the need to stick their nose in other people's business when it comes to who they want to date. Its crazy how blind they are.
it's so ironic how true this is. the majority of issues affecting men were created and are perpetuated by other men, but they always point the finger at women or feminists

"If a wife can honor her husband like she honors Jesus..." But you're not Jesus, my guy, and you're saying she should put you or her husband on the same level as your god? Do you not see the blasphemy by your own standards? I'm an atheist, and it's readily apparent to me.
I could easily be wrong, as I was never part of the church either... but I think it's just another way of the patriarchy to exclude women. I think maybe they dont think women can have as strong a relationship with god as men do. So it's not blasphemy because women are only capable of loving God the same amount they can love and worship their husbands? Just a guess.
For an atheist who hasn’t read scripture, you sure are arrogant. Ephesians 5:22-24.
@@malsake3739 Just because the bible says it doesn't mean it isnt hypocritical. I am well aware of this verse as its precisely the verse that made me and my mom leave the church when I was young. She wasnt religious but took me to Sunday school in case I would get anything out of it. Now, telling my mother who ran our business, handled all financials, took care of me (without abusing me), and was the primary breadwinner to submit to my dad.. that wasnt at all acceptable. My dad stole 6k from me when I was a kid, took out 2 leans on the house and lost it, and crashed more businesses than I care to remember.
If it weren't for that, I might be a Christian today. You would think that saving souls would be more important than adhering to words a mortal man wrote ages ago but, I guess not. Oh wait... no sorry, saving souls is more important than that when it comes to mixed fibers and shell fish. Just not when it comes at the expense of male superiority.
Which is, again, hypocritical. Why dont you focus on your soul and I'll focus on mine.
Honoring your husband is basically showing your respect to him like you would respect Jesus. It’s not saying that they are on the same level of God. We know fully well that God is above us and we submit to his authority. Jesus is that saying wives should follow in suit with this same submission to their husbands. If you would like to discuss more I am happy to explain in a healthy way of course.
Are they gonna honor their wives the way they honor Jesus huh??

I don’t think your definition of friend and their definition of platonic friendship are the same, so I think you’re jousting at windmills here. I’m a Christian male and fan of Titus/MANSPLAIN guys and I agree with them 100% on this subject. I have female friends but no deep emotional connection with them and I couldn’t really see myself wanting to hang out with any of them 1on1. I don’t think I’d even describe myself as having a deep emotional connection with my male friends tbh. I think these guys are reserved with their emotions and that’s why the deep emotional connection thing is a big deal. I’m the same way, I have emotional connections with family members and my wife only really.

I didn’t realize how prevalent this idea was until I started watching _90 Day Fiancé_ (a reality show). Many people on the show get territorial and insecure when they hear that their partner is maintaining platonic friendships during the new relationship. _Sometimes_ the distrust is justified.
My mom actually agreed that it is appropriate for a person to set aside their opposite-sex friendships if they’re making a lifetime commitment to a romantic partner. I feel like true friends are way too rare to dispose of like that.
After seeing so many negative reactions, I get the idea that opposite-sex relationships which are _truly platonic_ are less common outside of modern “western” cultures…
I have had male platonic friends since I was a tomboy in grade school. I promise you, I never wanted to "schtup" any of those dudes. They were like my brothers. I am also happily married to a Viking built, former bouncer manly-man. He would laugh these guys right out the door. Misogyny is so gross.

i can’t tell you the amount of times i’ve seen in korean dramas where the male or female lead make a big deal out of the other person being friends with someone of the opposite sex, in fact, it’s always used as one of the biggest conflicts in the drama. worse yet, the plot always turns out that the friend indeed had a crush/romantically liked the lead, which just fuels this misconception even more. i stopped watching romantic dramas altogether because i feel like many of them just portray romance inaccurately.
irl, i feel like this mindset might’ve partly affected me making friends with guys because growing up all my friends were females and even right now in my 20s, i have like 1 guy acquaintance, and no close guy friends at all. but i’m able to recognise that males and females can have platonic friendships. in fact, i had to be corrected on 2 separate occasions that some of my friends WERE in a relationship, even though to me they looked like they were just close friends, but they dubbed me as just oblivious. and again, it doesn’t help with improving my perception of this area lol.
