How women TRAIN men to be ANGRY: don't reward what you don't want

  • Most women find male anger terrifying -- which is why it is both tragic and ironic that they often play a part in encouraging it in their primary relationships. In effect, women inadvertently train men to be angry when they ignore, disrespect, or invalidate men who first attempt to communicate non-aggressively. If women only take men's complaints seriously when they escalate to aggression, then they reward men for aggressiveness, making it more likely that aggression will be utilized in the future. I discuss this phenomenon using an example from my own dating history.

      I have to say that
      to focus on male aggression is a very overplayed and corny thing when women commit most of the DV.
      Women are more aggressive in sexual relationships.
      Not men.
      This video in isolation isn't bad.
      But the fact that there are no videos detailing female relational aggression that becomes violent is a sad and terrible thing.

    Experienced divorce lawyer here. Brilliant video. I’d like to add: the message in this video is one reason why many successful, ambitious men choose to NOT live with a woman or get married. If she pushes your buttons, you can (and should) just leave and not look back.
    Also, I have seen 100’s of domestic violence cases in my career. In some cases, the woman will trigger the guy, and instead of leaving, he makes a bad decision by continuing to engage her in a heated argument. Guys, if you get a whiff of this kind of behavior from a woman, calmly walk away from the relationship. It almost never ends well.

    I had internal thoughts of leaving my previous relationship fairly early on. My parents who were married for 31 years divorced just before I got into the relationship in question. I didn’t want to be like my father and abandon the woman I had committed to. I had thought of leaving within the first year but I stuck it out for four and half years. She was very dismissive and invalidated my feelings every time I expressed them. I became an alcoholic and husk of my former self. I fell down some stairs and injured myself. I tried to quit drinking but weakness got the best of me. She left went she caught me drinking again. She blamed everything on me and told me to go to rehab. She said we can reassess the relationship once I had done that but she needed no contact for the time being. She completely blocked me and it destroyed me for a while. I realize now I am a victim of emotional abuse. I am over a year sober and doing very well.

      As a man you can never be right in a dispute with a woman. Even if you are in the right, your in the wrong. Most women don't respect a man who won't stand up for himself. They see you as weak and that turns them off. They tend to be turned on by aggressive men but then they cry abuse if they end up on the receiving end of the aggression. Its impossible to find a middle ground where your just as passive as necessary while being just as aggressive as necessary because women pick up on every little thing. Any passivity at all is taken as weakness and any aggression at all is taken as abuse. You can not come out of a situation like that without being labeled either weak and not worthy of respect or abusive and therefore only worthy of jail. You can not win.

Unrelenting. I told her one day after having a verbal fight if she didn't stop this I would leave, of course she had to test that boundary too, and just amped it up. I divorced her soon after. Cost a bomb and I lost everything, including contact with my kids, but that was 10 years ago now, since then I've had 10 years of peace, quiet and happiness with my new wife.

      What i meant was, women are not something to be defeated. The skills a man is proud of are useless against a woman,hardness loses to softness, a warrior is helpless against something he cannot cut.
      Even if you were to succeed,it would bring you no benefits.
      Women are meant to be sung on your side ,to be whispered into being yours, to make them see you as what they always wanted. They want to be sung a beautiful lie,so that they can be as beautiful themselves.
      They want to be fooled,by someone skilled enough to make them think it was their own idea all along.

    I'm a woman, and I used to have this same mindset of using so many words and tactics to "get my point across" to get people to change their minds and behaviors. And when it didn't work, I would resort to anger and aggression. And then I would feel like a monster, and be racked with guilt. Like you, I would just end the relationship because I didn't want to live like that. As I have gotten older, I realized that I was too much in my head. I held an unrealistic expectation, although at those times, I really believed them to be reasonable. Over the past few years, I realized that the more I let things slide and just try to understand the behavior of the other person, I don't get so angry.

      Hi all!
      Thank you Dr Orion.
      My partner brought this video to my attention, as he has been trying to convey this message countless times. He has become angry and shut down, and often I’m unsure why he is so reactive to things I perceive as minor, or that i believed had already to be worked through. My dads the same.
      And that, all of this makes me feel dreadfully sad.
      I don’t want my partner to leave, and I don’t want this anger to be my young children’s norm. I feel unloved and a lot of the time my character is assasinated.
      I am robbed of energy and vitality. I was once confident and happy every day.
      I have read the comments and listened 3x over to your talk.
      Thank you for sharing your raw experiences everyone.
      But… I’m starting to come to the realization that I’m that woman that has driven my lovely man to what he is experiencing.
      And he is ready and willing to exit.
      I try to quieten him or divert his attention, or quickly add where he might be harsh or outright verbally abusive to bring his attention to the matter with the assumption he’ll see it’s off or damaging and stop to his outburst. He will then feel ignored and disrespected even though he’s swearing and speaking poorly to us. It then escalates, and becomes emotional irrational and he drags the past into it. And threatens to leave on an emotional outburst. All in earshot of our daughters.
      It’s terrible.
      His biggest complaint is that he’s not heard.
      I need your help to understand more. What can I do to turn this around and have my man feel like he has the space to be himself. A place where he can build himself back up, and trust that things can improve, and it’s not too late.
      I want to teach my young impressionable daughter and toddler how to respect men. But how do you respect when this upset is present.

    “Express anger, collapse internally, leave.” I went through all this and the ‘collapse internally’ phase literally almost killed me. After I separated it became clear she consciously knew all along what she was doing with her behavior. It wasn’t subconscious at all. It was how she had learned to manipulate people including the intentional emotional abuse. Her repeatedly pretending she didn’t understand was just gaslighting, compounding my sense of wtf is going on. Men, brothers, if you are experiencing this from a woman, leave, get out, walk away, the sooner the better. Set a firm boundary on what is acceptable and if that boundary is not respected, leave. Seek help from other men and professionals to make the tough transition. Despite the amazing experiences I’ve had on my road to recovery, which will last a lifetime, I will always wonder about the life I would have had if I had had this much-needed advice then,.

Women will scream if a man, a stranger, or their own child, pulls their hair over and over. They will shout "leave it." However when women are told to leave it. It's worse than "relax."

That cold, white-hot rage that pushes you to finish that project you've been putting off for 2 weeks. Let it burn icy hot BUT contain it, harness it, and channel it. You must know what your anger is as a man, how to focus it, how to harness it, how to call on it, how to stoke it up when you need it, how to slow it down when you need that. Otherwise you become a pushover and your shadow is out of your control, and WILL take over at the worst possible time. sometimes this guy is spot on, sometimes he's far too new-age "anger is always bad"... which in my estimation is a fatal flaw. Anger is human, period. Learn to harness it to have it at your command or it will command you.

    My last ex would be a total juggernaut whenever we disagreed on anything. She would raise her voice short of screaming immediately, resort to a bunch of logical fallacies and would never listen to or accept my side. She was after total dominance. After several bouts of this kind I finally gave up trying to reason with her or compromise. I did not resort to anger as it is not my style and started stonewalling her instead. At that point the relationship was dead.
    During one of her rants she told me something that echoes to this day: "Whenever you disagree with me on something I feel wronged and mistreated". I wonder how many women feel like that when they don't get their way.

Then she drove the argument at this idea of hers that it's a mans (my) insecurity that was driving me and I needed to stop trying to exert control over her which made her feel threatened and scared. Typing this out now highlights how obvious it probably was I needed to end things. I stuck around and eventually she kicked me out of our place during an argument.

    This is actually why in times past, women could not speak to a man in any old way. Men were able to use their strengths (physical strength) to respond. Some of the things that women say to men are equal in harm to a man using his physical strength against a woman. We have now removed the ability for men to reply with their innate weapons, and women have noticed this and are abusing this fact. Men's hands are tied. Thus young men today often tolerate abuse from women far longer than what they should.

      The more you protect them, the more power you give them, the more authority you give them, the WORSE they will behave. Men are born with the knowledge we are totally subject to the harsh realities of the universe, women are born with the knowledge that we will use our bodies as shields if need be to protect them. It used to be we raised them to understand that it was not a free service they were entitled to, but rather one paid for with respect and a certain level of mutually returned services like loyalty and raising our kids.

    The child is misbehaving, the parent will at first try to fix that by communicating in a gentle way what the child should stop doing, more often than not, the won’t listen.
    So, either two can things happens, 1) the parent snaps with anger at the kid or 2)the parents stop asking it for it nicely, and changes into a more commanding tone.
    Now of course, this is a natural process. But having to deal with such inmaturity from an adult? Thing is, a lot of grown ups are still little children inside, they weren’t taught correctly, or never learned how to respond properly to things.
    Second of all, in this days, even being commanding to a women won’t work, because in this age that will be called toxic masculine behaviour. So either asking nicely don’t work, asking commandingly won’t work, only anger works. Incredibly toxic.

    10 years doing meditation and being a meditation teacher for high achievers.
    My ex was a normal woman but she always had this thing were she wanted to make me mad or angry.
    I told her that that was hard because it is a thing of stimulus vs reaction and we as meditators learn how to separate the two of them.
    She tried one time driving back home drunk: It didn't work.
    She tried hosting a party with his girl friends were two of our furniture were set on fire (I'm not lying): It didn't work.
    She tried hitting me once really hard and I (being also a BJJ purple belt) just control her in the ground until she calmed down.
    Shit escalated to the point that she cheated and for the first time I was mad and I left.
    She told me that she did it because I never showed her that I cared and that being with me was too "peaceful" but now that she saw she could make me mad she wanted to be with me.
    I left immediately.
    I still think that somewhere inside of her she's more happy that she "broke" the meditator rather than regretting that she lost a 2 year relationship over some BS.

      @@Kuk0san One simple way to show strength is during simple acts of affection. If you are able to easily lift the woman while kissing or hugging then this demonstrates strength. I don't think it has to be thought of as a test though. High physical strength is a masculine trait that many women think is attractive. So, similar to how many men like seeing a woman with a nice body shape, many women like to see demonstrations of strength. Mastery over physical objects is just one form of strength.

    Other things that are deal breaker:
    1) breaking the peace, as in being someone who would rather have a fight and argument over being calm and in silence. If they love drama more than peace then they will put the relationship and the family at risk just to get their emotional fix going.
    2) Not beign humble and being unable to understand and admit when being wrong. If they're not adult enough to understand the difference between feeling that they are right and actually being right then they don't deserve to be in a mature relationship with an adult, specially since that would mean that they'll be willing to trow the relationship out the window before even considering that the spouse is actually right.
    3) choosing emotions over logic. This shouldn't even be an issue for people over twenty years old. People are supposed to think things through, not allowe themselves to be possessed by their feelings to the point that they either willfully ignore reality or are legitimately unable to percive reality as it actually is in favor of their own delusional and emotion based worldview.
    4) Being unable to understand another person's point of view. If they cant see things in a different way or understand what someone else is trying to say then they will not be able to be a good partner or even a good friend to someone else.
    5) Being able to empathize and with their spouse and partner, or anyone else in their close social circle.
    6) Not showing understanding and appreciation for the struggles and hardship their partner goes through for them, the relationship and the family which is definitely why so many relationships and families are breaking up. And that goes double for refusing to help or ease said spouses fellings of stress and frustration brought out by said hardship.
