- What's so hard about being a man? We hit the streets of New York City with journalist and “For the Love of Men” author Liz Plank to ask about the privilege, power and pressure put on by society.

She should have interviewed some of the local homeless men.
" I love men but i will only interview men that give answers that i approve of"
@erhe etrherh You have just described Liz Plank to a tee!
So true hey!?
I'm testing the waters. Some girl I met online and went on a date with sent me this book a few days ago. I just got it, and wanted to see what Liz is about. These interviews and interviewees made me quite sick. I'm sure Liz means well to bridge the gap towards men, but is she just pigeon holing men into her prescription of what masculinity should be? Really? "One of these guys says masculinity is the root of evil, damn near?" That is the simpiest shit I've ever heard. The fact that she doesn't even challenge that thought, it made me question her real love for men and their struggles. Masculinity will continue to perform and we will all get to see it on display as the worlds economy collapses. You will all see what healthy masculinity will do for nations, as well as unhealthy. These past few decades, it's been pushed aside and neglected, but times will soon show what healthy men can do when they rise up for the love of those around them. Just like the great depression, and the world wars. There are unwavering virtuous men out there, with a passion to see righteousness and equality. The current times aren't calling on such men, so continue to interview gender fluid men on the urban streets, holding their extra whip Frappuccino's with their impotent wrists, and ask them what their opinion is on such matters :P
Beta Park! 😂😂😂
Bet she is hotter than any lady you have dated.
Exactly. To her I ask, do you understand how stats work (no because you "studied" gender "studies")? If men are less likely to wear masks according to a tiny sample of 2000, then that means very large numbers of men wear masks; very large numbers of women do NOT wear masks, but somewhat more men do not wear masks.
Do you understand what confirmation bias is (no because you "studied" gender "studies") why do you keep interviewing gay men, trans men.... obviously this will give you a highly biased sample as these are men who are struggling with gender identity and social norms. Thats like going slap bang into the repblican convention and asking 10 people about their view of society thinking that will give a representive sample.
Also blaming masculinity for everything you can think of even really random phenomemenan is stupid insread of the 200 other things going on, class, race, poverty, education level, and so on
Finally feminisms level of femisplaining is epic. I don't do identity politics, I dont care if youre a woman talking about men, thats fine... however you are an IDEALOGUE, someone possessed talking about men, and more to the point, you do belive in identity politics and stupid things like mansplainig, so what they hell are you doing femsplaining masculinity?
@Honest Person 😂😂😂😂
@@fredfrond6148 The ONLY thing "hot" about Liz Plank is her red-hot hatred of White men. In fact, judging from the bullshit she regularly posts on Twitter, it's safe to say she hates men, period. 🤦♀️😒
@@emmaharol897 EXCELLENT COMMENT!!!! 👏👏👏👍👌
Hardest thing about being a man - let's start with our life is several years less than women.
We differ on that one. I don't think a life well lived depends on its duration. It depends on what you do today to make your limited time worth a damn. The hardest part is knowing how to make your life worth it. To some it comes naturally, to others it takes a lifetime.
That's the best part!!!! 🙄🙄🙄
What’s hard about being a man?
Well the burden of performance is on men. Women can sit around and expect to be taken care of.
There are no special programs for men only that use tax revenues(men pay the majority of taxes) to give men help with anything in life.
There are no hiring preferences, scholarships, or grants for business for men only.
Men are overwhelmingly denied custody of their children in a divorce yet parenting time for the father is never enforced. Only child$upport and Alimony are enforced and men are overwhelmingly the ones forced to pay those.
Men’s rights are contingent on them meeting their responsibilities and duties. Women get rights free of any responsibility.
Men are seen as disposable by society because we are the ones physically capable of doing the hard, dangerous, and dirty jobs that keep civilization running.
And the last thing I will speak of that is so hard about being a man is that the cancer of feminism concentrates so heavily on the men at the very top of the hierarchy and gaining unearned power that average men don’t even exist to women. The girl power enthusiasts want to be CEOs not coal miners.
I like what she is doing, but she interviewed the wrong people. She needs to interview people in the hood, men of high status, boys in school, etc. Just more diversity. This was not even close to being scientific.
I think your expectations are a bit too high. But everything starts somewhere right?
@Alec McEhinny I completely agree, but the fact is that Liz Plank avoids talking to MASCULINE men at every opportunity. Diversity among men IS NOT something she is interested in discussing, much less promoting.
Of course it wasn't close to being scientific. This is a feminist, after all.
The point of this is propaganda. This is not a realistic cross section of men. She picked 3 obviously gay men out of 5 or 6. Not one guy whose jacked, not one guy with a lions mane of a beard, not one guy with a commanding voice, not one veteran with a disability whose seen more pain in a week than everyone else in this video combined in their lives
I want to see the cut interviews from the actual masculine men that didn't pander.
Probably claimed they were toxic and won't show it. Standard narrative on that front.
The irony is you can tell that throughout the interview she keeps laughing at the men who express feminine behaviour and talk about their experiences where they acted effeminate.
Totally right. Opening up and talking about our feelings? Yeah that's a recipe for disaster with woman. They don't give a shit. They want you to remain strong and unwavering. Any such things expressed, whether they want it or not, is just used against you, or as leverage to see your true strength. I can see exceptions with mothers and grandmothers toward their own young boys growing up, but I cannot see beyond that.
@@John-ih7gp I disagree.
You are 100% correct John. Women are incapable of caring about men’s insecurities and pain. They viscerally and reflexively lose respect for you the moment you let your guard down. They may not say it, they may not leave you, but their behavior changes. Mothers are the one and only sure fire exception. In a healthy family of course. Not all moms are good moms, but a mothers love for her son is often unconditional. You shared a body for 9 months and she raised you from a pup, and you should always be good enough for her. My mother has always been there for me. You can make the argument for sisters and grandmothers to a lesser extent, but I never had a sister and my grandmother was not a good person. My mother was the only women who ever loved me at my lowest
Don't stand too close to these men, you might get a yeast infection.

@@emmaharol897 did I fuck up?
@@GorillazGames Oh sorry no I was referring to the journalist/author
Liz would not date or take any of those guys seriously,
What does that say about the state of men and women?
If u wanna find any non feminist men left in NYC, either go to a skatepark or Wall Street.
@Black Knight Fool
I dunno, a lot of decent, heterosexual women, are so terrified by all of the fake statistics, and are SO USED to guys like these being allegedly "normal", that when they encounter healthy, decent, natural, protective, honest, providing, assertive, and logical males, they think there's something wrong with them; they assume it's "toxic masculinity", when we all know there's nothing more toxic than male feminists.
EVERY true male feminist is a man who's deeply misogynistic, which is why they become male feminists. It's a way to feel "normal" by believing that "everybody objectifies and exploits women" (which is the opposite of true), then repenting for their sins, and getting better at being around (the wrong) women at the same time. Knowing that, is it any wonder why so many male feminists are rapists, stalkers, and domestic abusers?
@@PrinceofQueens 100% true!!!
It was all gay dudes... is this a joke?
Funny how a woman writes about men and tell you about men as if she knows about men.
New York is the most beta place to go. Why didn’t she go to the south?
Maybe she lived at new york , there are a lot of people = a lot of answers , and she maybe has not budget for travel a lot
@@getitgetit6793 this was kind of at the height of her popularity. So I do find that kind of hard to believe.
@D G Liz Plank didn't go to the South because she WOULD NOT approve of the responses she would receive there.
The choice of men is ridiculous! :D
@Марк Пиво That's because Liz Plank is a man-hating, ridiculous excuse for a human being.
Why? Thats how average men look
her "love for men" is visible by the men she is interviewing.🤣
It's hilarious that this woman so desperately feels the need to announce at the beginning that she "loves men", when she CLEARLY despises them.
She loves men insofar as we can be “fixed”. She believes we are defective women and can be worthy of love if we just act more like women
I’m jealous. That one woman has a better beard than me.
@bob smith 🤣🤣🤣
Were any straight men interviewed? Is this a gays only park?
The real men are at home drinking themselves to death
@Little Miss Muffet and do you celebrate that?
A huge corporation like bloomberg has very low engagement. Under 40 comments and the video has been up for two months.
Liz Plank: "Hi! I'm Liz Plank and I love men...so long as THEY ARE NOT White, masculine, intelligent, self-assured and accomplished."
She found the most pathetic White men she could. That was by design
I think her work is so important!!!
What an unrealistic portrayal of Men so some woman can feel good
I'd say men have it harder in divorce, considering courts almost always lean in favour of women and the mother almost always wins full custody of the kids, even if it's clear she's not fit to take care of them.
Also the obvious one, where a woman can hit a man, but a man can't hit her back in self defense
“So using that privilege is kind of a privilege”
Hard hitting journalism right there folks
Shoutout to the guy with long hair and a Periphery shirt
I would love o see her in a serious debate with someone like Jordan Peterson, Bret Weinstein, Heather Heying, or Ben Shapiro. It would really be fun to watch her being picked apart :)
Sounds a bit like you’re a jealous old hag
X2!
@@timthetoolmanasshole724 because i want her to defend the BS she says against someone who has an actual working brain not crippled by feminist propaganda ? :)
@Dean P. i am yes and my problem with her is that she selected men who seem to be fully on board with the identity politics on the left -
@Nadine Feiler I agree wholeheartedly!! However, the intelligent, well educated, well spoken, truthful, informative people you have mentioned would not waste a minute of their time talking to a complete fool like Liz Plank. Go to her CZcams page and read her assessment of Jordan Peterson.
4:31more people calling it out actually recognising the truth
Likes vs dislikes - I rest my case 🤷🏽♂️
As man, we will have to start talking by ourself of our condition, instead of leaving womens like this doing it - in a clearly wrong manner.
That is what I always thought. Why is it a woman initiated topic of conversation? Older men consoling younger, and peer to peer. Does she not realize she is interviewing men from one of the largest melting pots of cultural diversity? Masculinity must look quite different in so many different cultures as well.
I bet after those 'men' she hooked up with the alpha male.
@Ruslan_87 I seriously doubt that any 'alpha' male would want to hook up with her.
Everything is harder as a man then a women starting with our level of accountability. I set she wouldn’t trade places with a single man she talked to
I agree, but can u give an example
A man will never leave a woman for her losing her job. A woman will frequently leave her man for losing his job
@@crispycruiser4654yh no poor men in the world have wives
@@naviifra2374 Exceptions aren’t the rule
If she's intelligent so why she is a feminist
Go interview some real men!
They are not real men compared to what exactly? Maybe you need some kinda model to compare against or some authority's approval to know you are a man? I just need to look down and I know for sure with a big fkn smile on my face. It's that simple.
@Abraham Villalobos Many men may be able to kick my ass, but it doesn't mean I fear facing them. I don't like starting fights without a good reason, but I also don't run if they are brought to me. If you want to measure virtual dicks, go ahead friend. Me, I'm going to enjoy life.
And by "real men" I'm assuming you mean men who spend their free time online throwing hissy fits in comment threads?
@@radoraf Interviewing a man saying that masculinity is the root of all evil, well.... That's a start isn't it? It's pretty easy to spot a real man. Why isn't she interviewing a Father who's committed his life to his wife and raised kids? A man who takes on so many of the burdens of others. A man that is willing to protect?
Choosing to walk the streets of NY and pick out some guy who just bought an extra whip, strawberry Frappuccino, with his wrist half bent, well, that's a pretty far reaching way to start the masculinity discussion isn't it?
@@John-ih7gp Could very well be some of those fellas will make wonderful fathers and committed partners someday, don't you think? For all you know, one of them could be a black belt, and you would never know until you try to mess with him or his kin. Appearances can be deceiving. You don't have to be stereotypical to kick ass. Plus, I don't see any of these fellows doing anything that bothers or insults my manhood. They do their thing, I do mine.
Liz Plank should have her own show...she is awesome!
Lovely video Liz! This is great!
mtheory-pi lemon 🤣🤣🤣
lol the video is garbage feminist propaganda
LMAO... misandry much?
It’s garbage and propaganda
BETA!!!
@David Society Spoken like a SUPER BETA!!!
All those dudes are gay af!
not a big variety of man it this video innit
Feeling clickbaited.
The least important men's issue is more important than the most important women's issue
Absolutely. I'm not sure what the "least" important male issue even is... there's so many important ones. It's certainly NOT male genital mutilation.
@@PrinceofQueens the “meninst” issues, any of which I'd defend over the women's issues
@@spacepan Name one? Stereotypes of men being stupid oafs who're carried through life by their next-to-perfect wives?
Well I see no one speaking out about suicide rate, job fatalities, homelessness, domestic violence and antagonization of men. But of course we're not hearing it, men usually avoid complaining whereas the radical feminist couldn't care less about men's issues and only think about themselves. The fact that the word "manspreading" or "mansplaining" has such a significant meaning today truly shows that we live in a spoiled 1st world society in which we just don't have enough serious problems to deal with.
@@daddydallas4789 What prevents you from having a CZcams channel dedicated to the issues you brought up and seem to be passionate about?
You asked a bunch of folks who want to be women what's hard about being a man. Fam .. stop it. this should be illegal or tagged as comedy.
@gravesg I concur.
Well said. There is an agenda here and it ain't hidden.
UH BETA, amazin.
BAYDUH PARK!!!
Liz I love you too.
Dumb question .. !!
Shirley Cameron it wasn’t a question it’s a statement.
Literally why?
This is great. Don't worry about all these comments. Keep it up Liz!
White knighting is stupid.
Hope she sees this bro
LMAO... beta simp to the rescue...
Shut up
