Baby steps I guess, but think this all the way through. A big part in this "getting in touch with your full range of emotions" business is understanding you're not the only one feeling anything. If he thinks a pregnant woman who is left behind in bed while her man goes to investigate a noise isn't feeling fear, then he's just as childish as the bird babble types who think they're the main character in a live movie...and everybody else are just bit players around them.


The world doesn't revolve around just you.

I had to look "Chinese Whispers" up. Are you British? We call that "Telephone" here, and I'm still not sure how it relates to the thread.

As a man, it's your duty to protect your family. Scared or not. That's where COURAGE comes in. Your wife is gonna leave you if you sit there talking about how you're scared too and don't wanna do nothing to protect her or the kids.
Why I called you a blockhead breh.

I'm saying this is Chinese Whispers because you can't see further than the title. If you watch the fukking video, you will see that he is saying what you are saying.

Didn't watch but as far as nature goes, you already lost by showing fear. Showing signs of stress is different and a lot of people get those mixed up.

Either way, showing anything outside of toughness as a man takes away from his value and that's something that needs to change, especially if we're taking the route that dictates that everyone should just be themselves and live their lives.

Social media ain't having that shyt tho

This "Chinese Whisper" shyt is too brand new and bizarre for me to focus. Let's just agree to disagree :leon:

"Courage is not the absence of fear, but the ability and willingness to act in the face of it."

I had that quote on my wall from age 10 until I moved out when I was 18 :wow:

Ain't a damn thing wrong with being scared or even saying that you're scared. Hell, there's nothing wrong with nope-ing out of certain situations. But sometimes you gotta have the courage to do what needs to be done.

...went to dump some trash and heard what i assume to be two or more racc00n sets having a teen summit in a closed dumpster.

said to myself, "nope". underhand swung that bag at the dumpster as close as it would get on one toss, and backpedaled the hell out of there.

my fear was on full display to all of god's creatures in that lot.

If your in a traditional relationship where the ma is leading, thats just how it goes. You shouldn't even say "i'm not allowed to show fear" if you have pride as a man. Protect your family. Or don't, but then don't walk around with pride when it comes time to step you, you're going to cower.

I think he is speaking in general

Fear was just an example.


For boys/young men, there is probably truth to this.
