I mean, growing up, for me personally, something that I always thought that a man was was, I always, I always looked at my, my dad as what a man should be like. Just being in the house, like, in that being the immediate person that's in my life that's a man in the male figure, everything that he does, I feel like I always had to emulate or try to be like that because that's what I knew what a man was. Does anybody else feel that way? Like I said, I mean, I totally agree with you. Like, you know, your father cannot have a doubt of being in the house.  So, I totally agree with you. You guys say in today's society there's an absence of you? Why is that? You're never born a man or a woman at some point you matured to those things. And everybody is not going to step up to the place to become and matured to those things. Thank you. At what point in, I guess, in a male's life do you think that happens? Do you think they transition into men? I think high school, yeah. Why high school? Because you're at that point where you kind of, you kind of find yourself and it's easy to get sidetracked in high school. You know, like from middle school to high school, you know, some of your friends they change. Like, either for the better or for the worse, like, that's like the right time to catch them and kind of mold them into, you know, how their future is going to turn out. That's interesting. You guys know, like, in movies and stuff, about history, like, 300 and stuff, there's always a certain point where they have to do, like, a right of passage into manhood. Like, they have to survive in the wilderness for a week or something like that. Obviously it's not like that today in recent America. But do you guys think there's a form, like, there's a type of right of passage that we have within our culture? That tells other people that I'm not a boy. You can kind of say after high school. Because, like, when you graduate, you're like, oh, what do I do now? And then you have to go out and, you know, figure out your own path. Yeah, that's it. It's really, like, pretty much everything after high school that is just the rest of your life is just, you're proving that you're a man, really. Just, like, everything's a test. Everything's a new hurdle that you have to pass. After high school, it's like, you're out on your own. It's you against the world. That's pretty much it. I say prioritizing. I think prioritizing shows what you put first shows a lot about you. You know, you have to put God first, then your family, then school, then whatever. I think whatever you prioritize first, such as partying rather than going to the library till 11 o'clock to study, you know, those two things are, I think, I think that's really, like, my father died when I was young. So my brother, like, they always say you're supposed to take that role as a man. Like, you're the man now. Like, although he was young, he was like 13, he still hadn't prioritized. Like, you have brothers and sisters, now you're supposed to help your mom. So I think that really made him a man. Like, although he was an adolescent, he still took on that role as a man. Are there any, like, figures, whether it's fictional characters or real people, that really think of this guy kind of like she said in the video, that's how he is? If you think of this person, you think that's a man. What would you guys say? I'd say to rock.  Walk tall. Walk tall. He got a big thing in the movie. That's right. Yeah. Okay. Like, it happened to me. He's on the hold on taking care of his family and protecting them. That he's willing to put himself in danger. He's willing to put himself in danger. He's willing to put himself in danger as long as he can take care of his family and people. That's what I feel like a man is supposed to do at some point in time.  I think somebody too. Also, while I say, there was this line that J. Cole said, and I thought about it, and it was real though, because he said, he said, rest in peace one time, Uncle Phil, for real, you're the only father that I ever knew. Right? And when I think about it personally, I think Uncle Phil was actually a good father figure. He was a successful judge. He was living nice, but also he put his foot down when he needed to. He took in his nephew who, for one reason or another, had to come stay with him. You feel what I'm saying? So I think Uncle Phil was great. He said something to you, right? What does a man look like? Like physical features? He does a matter. He does a matter? I see him. You guys speak. You guys speak. I think, personally, I think a man should be somewhat physically imposing, because, you know, we say it's supposed to be a protector and things like that. You have to be able to protect somebody. Whether it's being big, whether it's being mentally strong, physically strong, whatever the case may be, I don't think your woman should have to fight you out.  So, personally, what I think of a man, whether or not I'm right, I think it's somebody who is somewhat muscular, somewhat big, some way. Those are how to protect themselves, you know, personally. So when you say that someone who's not built can't protect their children. They still wash their arms or something, but that means they can't. I don't know if I'm not good at all. And he knows martial arts. Probably so. But I'm just saying that's what I think of when I visualize a man. I'm not saying you have to be that to be a man. But, you know, when I think of a man, I think of, like, a quiet confidence. So not necessarily somebody walking right here and being there, but, you know, it's somebody that by their demeanor, by the way they carry themselves, you can tell, you know, let me respect myself, too. Let me not, you know, mess around the same thing, you know, derive it towards them. But that's what I think of when I think of a man. Does anybody disagree with that? Oh, no, I'm just saying I disagree with you. You disagree with me? Why? Because I don't think you're a physical character to me. It's like judging a woman.  Me, I'm 5'7". I wouldn't back down from someone 6'4". I'm the most new man on the street. I'm 20 years old. I just know it's just been a trance for me. I'm not saying I'm doing it. I'm a man. You're not that punk like nobody's there. My dad's the same way. You're 5'6". I'm taller than him. You're not that punk like nobody's there. I don't think that makes you a man. Because you're big in this room. Or you look aggressive. Or you carry yourself with confidence. I don't have anything to say. I agree. I agree with you. I mean, I don't think, you know, that physical character is just what makes you man. You know what I'm saying? I feel like a man is a man of heart and mind. You're using it. You go, you look just like me. I'm lost myself. I keep going. I'm so sorry. Very beautiful. I agree with you. I don't think people say that every man is supposed to be muscular and billy. It's just like the first thing, that's just the first thing. You think of physicality as the word means. You think of somebody who's bigger. Or whatever.   I don't know. It's just, like, if I scare another dog in here for some type of reason, because probably, I'm probably scared of everybody in here talking to me.  It's something about everybody. That everybody cares, and they have more than one. That it's something about them that other people know.  Like, just a little bit.  I agree with you. What's your name? Ace. Okay, I agree with Ace, because a man who just can't go off post-physical features because we have a lot of people that now are not born men, but they are men.  So I think that it's more than your physical features because I'll take care of your family, set an example, be in a role model, and provide them. Not necessarily being built, because you can be built, and not be proud, and be at home with no job, and not care about anything. So it's just more than, how you feel. Very good. Not to take sides, but only care about how you use it as an asset. You know what I'm saying? It's like a benefit for you, or an advantage. But other than that, I agree with him, it's not going to make you a man. You just don't say anything wrong. What is a man? What is a man, Chris? When you think of man, what comes to mind? The question I have is, what age frame you're talking about? What age, yeah, age will have a different, it will make a difference in how they drag, because it'll make a difference in how they look at men and women. But I think mentally, it's when you change mentally that makes you a man, or a woman. So it's not really an age, because like she said, her brother took on the role of the man in the house when he was 13 years old. Like, he might have dressed a certain way, but it's his mentality that made him a man. Right, when man, his mentality changed, I'm pretty sure he still dressed like a teenager. Right? Yeah. Yeah. Okay. Based on your age, that's the way the trend is. Right, right. No, I'm saying, I'm saying just like, it's a profession. Like, what do you think of man? Do you think, is it soup? Do you think, do you think of workplace?  That's the thing. That's the thing. That's the thing. That's the thing. That's the thing. No man, it's like, you can't, see the problem is with this, and like, we're trying to put like, men and women in small categories, like in a box, and it's like, it's hard to define men and women into this small box, because anything women can do, men can do, and vice versa. Not vice versa. No man, it's not vice versa. That's biological, that's biological. That's biological, I'm not talking about biological, because when you look at it, when you look at it, what really defines a man is what I've been hearing is responsibility. I wouldn't say responsibility, too. That's what makes her a woman. That's what makes a man a man. But you also have to take in the biological aspect of it, because we're not the same lila. Yeah, yeah. So, that's the only thing that separates us. That's the only thing that separates us. But you still have to take into account, to take, like, with a woman who can do a man who can do a woman who can do a woman. I don't believe in that statement that a woman can do a man who can do a woman. I don't believe in that statement. I feel like God has created a man who can do a man who can do a woman who can do a woman who can do a woman. So, the moment a woman starts to do what a man does, there's a problem somewhere in there. I can't do what a man can do, because I'm not a woman. I don't know what a woman does. Because I'm not a woman. So, saying that what a man can do, what a man can do, she might do it simply, but at least a slight difference. You know what I'm saying? If a woman, if a woman has a post of men, for example, if a woman had been close to where you're at and God, people would have a good idea. Immediately. People would have a good idea. You could be on the coast, you could be on the coast, you could be on the coast, you could be on the coast, you could go fromaudd, you could be on the coast, you could go fromaudd, you could go fromaudd, those guys at home that are close to America, but it doesn't have access. Absolutely nothing. The guy on the coast doesn't matter, but they ask them women. I Can't teach you as a female your mom can't really teach you what a man Like your mom can definitely tell you don't take this from a man don't find a man like this or whatever She can help you mark a permanent state, but as a female she can't directly tell you how to get a male Just like she wouldn't be able to teach if you had a brother. She can't teach your brother how to be a man You guys What is our definition What differentiates an average man One day That mindset is just Get it now don't worry about later as long as you're good for now You don't have to worry about later where as a man his mindset is If you get it now you need to make sure you have it then you can sustain it till later like He's gonna hustle We're I I Feel like a guy an average guy as opposed to an average nigga because it's But an average guy has a singular approach to life He is right now. I'm thinking about my mom's my biggest my bag as opposed to a man has a very Global kind of appeal and yeah, it's just broad his perspective on life is broad He's concerned with himself, you know better himself his family his community You know things like that. So he's thinking about the future But an average guy is thinking about the right now the hustle right now as opposed to sustainability You know for a long time. So a real man is thinking about providing and planning and protecting his family Okay That you saw in white man The difference, uh, well how he approached me was very different He actually approached me with his business card and um He asked for my first and last name So it's just versus you see most black guys who were trying to help me like a halo mama And it is We're active white, you know, like that's uh, that's Black man, I want to say we have black men from the Caribbean. We have opportunities So when you say most black men Yeah I think what we can say is a culture difference Can we say culture is that more better? Maybe a culture difference and and everybody's different. Um, somebody had their hand raised over it Yes, oh, I'm just gonna say that like for me I've noticed that like white men actually like care about a black woman a little bit more than our I think if we boil it down because what a man is you might not have encountered a lot of black males because There is a lack of There is a lack of we know that most our males are in jail or selling drugs that limited You know and they limit themselves Due to their environment due to whatever the culture or whatever it is limit us from being that many black men But if he met a black man, he would approach you Just like him just like those two.  Let me tell you what this sounds like it sounds like you're saying that a man what you're subliminally saying is that A man should have chivalry Is that is that that's what it sounds like and you're saying that there's a lack of chivalry in black Yeah It's a lack of chivalry in black males Yeah, but there's a difference between a male and a man like just like there's a difference between a female and a woman So there's a lack in males, but I don't think there's a lack of men because I've said men are a whole far away from this monitor I don't agree with that. I don't think it's just black males, black men, white males, white men There's a separation wrong if you can't have respect for yourself You can't respect others and you don't have any type of respect and you know I mean you have to respect every kind of whether they're in the same market right So it sounds like everybody's coming to a consensus that chivalry is a part of men Why ain't a chivalry that's respect That's just what's good when it's don't come up to anybody and be like a because then I'm going to be like me I Just Why not try to change the culture then why not be the change that you want to see in the world? I mean if I'm gonna walk up to someone I'm gonna treat them the way I want to be treated. I'm not gonna say Make that change like that First of all give her what she's used to Bring that closer and give her what you are used to Because if you don't have to do the right, you see how do you get here the first time?   My name is so so can I be sure to even know that's not what I'm used to is what I was saying So I feel like when you said you should kind of like How your culture I feel like you should everybody is the same there like Yeah But I'm going to approach anybody no matter where they're from. I'm not going to change who I am That's what I'm saying because when you're a stereotype of somebody and approach them in a different manner You're changing you so I'm not going to change who I am because who you are Deidre comes into Deidre a hundred percent of the time So why why not approach me like who's these rather than approaching me like the dude that just approached me before I think I think Is the fact that in our society there is a lack of men lack of males it's it's It's almost a hard pill to swallow Like I feel like if the average girl was that close by a man She wouldn't know how to handle it And she would she would most likely push him away rather than accept him Because unfortunately there's a lack of fathers. There's a lack of of Leaders male leaders There's a lack of people that we can say, okay, this guy's a sponsor and this guy's what a man should be So whenever you approach what a man should be and whether it's a friend whether it's somebody who's trying to talk to you In case maybe you're more going to be like Then accept And that's that's what the problem is So there is a lack of men And there's a lack of appreciation for men That's that's what I think Let's transition in the world A lot of dudes don't know how to really see a woman for what she really is In a way women kind of get Women kind of get judged based Kind of like on your actions. I'm not going to approach a girl In a way that I would come at a woman It's not gonna happen. But the reason why I say women our life is because like There's a lot of guys that be the women. There's a lot of guys that kind of like mistreat them in certain ways, but When I say that their life like we all started from that like we all came from that like How do you how do you feel? Mistreat in something that Yeah, you're like it's so precious.  So like we can't get anywhere without women Period if a dude was mad angry and was like man, I just for some reason I just hate women Which they were going to burn you would be gone and none of us would exist Not even this not even the stuff that women have done throughout history, but In general being life givers like that's really important and we overlook that every single day Every single day if I want it I would say this modern generation So the moment you find out A good woman She is a better procedure You find out a good woman that you capitalize on But none of it Is a capital right that week Then for me, you know, I wouldn't you know, I would have to take my time And you know recognize what is a nice woman and that's what is not a hair Maybe she's not When you guys are saying give like you mean in the in the biological sense or in the sense that you're pooping Somebody's like like making a house a home I mean same I mean saying that there's there's gonna be I mean, of course we have like the base biological one But like, you know, there's women that step up to that role of like, well, look I'm gonna make sure that I'm gonna do everything I can for my kids Regardless Regardless, I have to have respect for that I have to approach you with a certain amount of respect.  You got five kids But I'm thinking about Trying to get some jays from I'm not gonna do that. It's a certain, you know respect type thing You can't do that to someone who's trying to be her best as a mother. It's just an example.  A woman can't just have a baby You know what I'm saying by itself. You have to take the man and earlier since we're saying when we give a life You know What I mean From So he gave you responsibility to the man and the woman So like I said, like he said, women can give you the same thing a man can do. So we say what a woman is Just about everything you say a man can do just by everything a man can do a woman can do. That's how I feel about But I feel like I feel like I'm not saying one is more important than the other but And women are special in their own right, but it's something about a man that is very important like There's a reason why I'm gonna put it this way since you talked about the Bible It's a reason why Jesus was heard of God as as his father and not his mother You get I'm saying because there's an important there's an important role that a man plays I'm not saying that it's that is that everybody has a different role I'm not saying one is more important than the other but I feel like I don't think that everything a man can do a woman can do if I'm progressive I feel what you're saying when you say like the father thing The reason like I think the reason why I said the woman thing in life is because we kind of Well, me personally, I kind of know that about the father and you know the importance of a man Like that's kind of like instead of I know that um But with women, we kind of don't really know how important they really are Or we don't really realize how important they really are to us. So that's why I kind of spoke a man more than the father thing All right like we said earlier There's a distinction between a male and a man Is there a distinction between a female and a woman? And if there is what is that distinction? Because it's it's harder to tell you know the difference between a boy and a man than it is a girl and the woman The woman's not a walker or ass I like to have a flunk in this If there were some names that she shouldn't be doing toward the video or all that kind of thing I think it's just as clear to see a guy who Carries himself as a man and a guy who carries himself as a boy versus a woman who carries himself as a woman And not even a child Any true woman as being a Respecting the body, respecting the person, respecting the other kids Whatever it is If your kids are actually at grandma's house Coming at their grandma's house 95% of the time And it's not because you're working or in school That's not a woman because you're not even trying to step up to a woman Where you get more than things At a woman's house And not trying to step up to that Everybody's a woman You didn't want to make that a woman Alright how do you How do you find a woman How do you find How do you find a woman How do you find a woman Well the woman is She actually takes it before she asks Before she asks And if you say how do you find A woman Her location How do you find something So you don't really write about her You know What is the right word Well I would say Some of our men can give you more chances To find a better woman So let's say I have a church You should take a time For the people Who are also women You can't come to that place You take one man What Say no to that I'm a man I'm a woman I'm a woman I'm a man I'm a man I'm a man I didn't know I didn't know I didn't know I didn't know I didn't know I didn't know I'm sorry I'm a woman I'm a female on the church You can go to church You can see all these people But they're not found there I met a street I used to be the 5th I was sitting in the house I met a street I met a street I was standing What did she do? She just, she told me to wait for her to go out and say hi to him. I just helped her to go out to the clinic.  If I have a good day, I'll be able to go out. What do you invest in? Everything for me. Everything for me is working. I'm not the type that makes money. I take advantage of, you know, living expenses? Because I have money. It all happened because of you. All right! She's the best. She puts down her money when she was saying that the choir and not our You guys think different cultures, like for example, ours versus American culture, any culture has different expectations of what we're doing this, that may not agree with another culture. Yeah, also, there's some of this where they're not allowed to show skin, their feet, and their hands or anything like that. I'm not sure if they live under those emotions and keep their hair coming out, and they can't do certain jobs, and they can't, you know... Yeah, they can't go outside. They can't look another man in the eyes when speaking to them. Whereas in American culture, as women now, we're taught to be very independent, very open about what we want and what we need. Whereas in other cultures, they're not totally different. Like my mom's always told me, never depend on a man for anything. And I guess I took that to be sure, because I don't depend on anybody for anything. I'm a proud person by nature, but in other cultures, when you're not allowed to do certain things, it's because they're making you depend in a way or whatever. Because taking it back to the American culture, say if a woman wanted to get in the force from her husband, she could leave, but she wasn't allowed to take her children with her. Nothing that she came in with, nothing that she got wrong in the marriage or that she came in the marriage with, is allowed to go back in with her if they weren't together in the force. Whereas in American culture, we're expected, if two people split up or two people aren't together, the child automatically goes with the mother. Unless there's some extremely certain safety. So it's a lot in culture that changes what womanhood and manhood actually is defined by. Well, from the front of the view of our household, we're not going to have both mom and dad. It depends on the person, because I mean, honestly, yeah, my mom said, you know, she said basically you can rely on a man with both mom and everything.  So it's like, you know, there's discipline in the household. So our definition is based on culture, or is there like a standard that transcends culture? It's just like human, man. I think certain aspects of each are transcended culture, but a lot of it is based on culture like nurturing. We expect that to be in every moment, no matter what culture it is, whatever. Whereas in other things, we don't expect that in everybody, because they're cultural.  Do you guys agree with things like that, or do you think those are outdated ideals? Or do you think it's a reason? I'm kind of afraid of it. No, man, no, man. I'm in. You're in. You're in. You're in. Like, why are you here? Oh, my God. I just feel like I'm not saying a man should get in a crime. I'm a man and I feel like a man. I know I'm crying. I'm in with it. I cry. A man is pretty guppin'. I'm in with it. I'm chattin' kids. But I do agree with the theory of I agree that it was supposed to be like you said the protector, the provider who shouldn't be as emotionally tied up and kind of have that front as the protector or we can't show that weakness of that. Vulnerability. You know, all of us are going to take advantage of whether that's by women who will take advantage of your vulnerability or a man with punky because he knows that you're weaker. So I do agree with the theory of not saying completely no, no, you can't cry. You cry the kind of man. Right. I want to agree with that too, like, like, like, like, like, like for instance, like if it was a very couple and your wife just lost her job and she crying, she don't need you crying too. You know what I'm saying? You know what I'm saying? You know what I'm saying?  You know what I'm saying? So you know what I'm saying? I agree with him. Like, it's a vulnerability. It's not the fact that you're crying. It's a vulnerability and so-called weakness that is shown with a male cry. That's why I have no problem with a guy crying. I like to see a guy cry. Don't ask me why. I just like it. But it's the vulnerability when people say being a man don't cry. It's the vulnerability that's shown. It's that weakness. Because people will always mistake something about you for a weakness, whether it's because you're too much or because you cried at others at one time. It's going to bother you forever. So that weakness is what people are going to take in. But it's always said, like, if you're going to cry, you're a man. You cry behind closed doors. Well, sometimes you can't make it behind those closed doors. You know what I mean?   I mean, I mean what you say works for me. I have a different perspective of crying. I think crying is not a misunderstanding for me. Even if I would say cry out loud. You know, when you're not crying, right? When something goes wrong, you cry. When you cry, that's the best thing to do at the moment. You don't have to cry. You wipe your tears. There is not a solution. I don't cry and end up with a solution. I'm not crying. You're not talking about it. So when you don't defy or don't defy crying is weakness. It's an expression of your emotions. I don't want to mistake it. I don't think crying is a misunderstanding. But it is the exact opposite. You don't have to cry. No, dude. You start to have to cry all day. No, no. All day long. Until I'm tired of crying and I thought I was going to sleep. I didn't think it was real. But you know what? I can't cry no more. Is there a problem with feminine guys? Yes, yes. We make you talk. We don't know what the problem is. You don't get to cry. I don't want to do anything about it. No, no, no. Take care of yourself. Like, you're too old for a second. I mean, I like to thank you. You need to stop. But I think when you take feminine, people are automatically built to make a strength. And they don't think about, I guess, what's in between. Where I don't know what I'm thinking about. in between where a man would take care of himself and I would consider that to him whereas other people would. So it's a personal how the person's a man of feminine God. So wouldn't she have to be a God? It's a lot of stuff. I feel like there's a beautiful explanation, though. It wouldn't be. You have to handle it. I mean, I agree with her, like if a God keeps himself dressed nice, takes pride in what he does, that's fine.  I don't need a mom's word.  Like, I don't, I just don't. I feel like there's a double standard between if a man was acting more feminine than if a woman had a man, like a woman who was more masculine, because if a woman acts more manly, then they'll be seen as more independent and strong. But if a man acts more feminine, they're going to stand as a weak man, emotional. So there's a double standard. What's the problem with masculine and female? I mean, some people, like, are masculine. They're more masculine than men. They're more masculine than men. They're more masculine than men. It depends on what you like, your personal preference. No, I'm going to be masculine in the physical sense. I'm going to be masculine as in, like, a man crying, like, emotionally and things like that. I mean, I feel what he's saying, but I'm a strong female, like, I'm really strong. I'm not the girly girl, but I am that female. Like, I am a, like, I just can't have someone who's not up to it. I don't know. I guess that's because, like, my boyfriend is, like, the, uh, and I'm just, like, yeah. I'm just saying, like, I'm a crying person. I rather cry behind closed doors than in public. So I would prefer a guy who, his emotional level is on the same level.  Because if I'm not crying because of this problem, then he's crying because we can have life. I feel like that with females. I feel like that with females. When masculine with females, like, I feel like a woman, you know, if you can, like, I feel like female independence is good. Like, for instance, if I'm out of town or something, and you guys take out the trash, take it out because I'm not there to do it.  Yeah, let's just be that. I'm calling. I'm calling. I'm calling. You can't call me. I'm calling. I'm calling. There was a girl, she said that, um, a woman has to know how to let a man be a man. Yeah. She was like, oh, that's a fun one. What does that mean to let a man be a man? Wait, what? What does it mean to let a man be a man?  That's a whole different thing. I don't want to know what that means! So, what does that mean, to let a man be a man? What does that mean? Because in fact, every woman wants to be told, You got your hair done, I love that dress on you, I love the pool room, they want it, they might not say they don't want it, they want it, they love it. They might not even say thank you, but they love it. We are also a type of kind of egoist. I feel like, yeah, I open this jar. You know, let me be a provider. Let me see that. I was going to say, like, letting a man be a man to me means allowing the lead to make decisions. Like if he's going to open a car door, don't say I got it. No, no, you got it. I can take out the trash when you're not there, but, you know, I'm able to do it on my own. So I feel like letting a man run the household and you being there, like, his backbone to support him and all those things. I think that's what letting a man be a man is. Anybody disagree with that?  Because there's not going to be that one of the driving carriers recently for every single person.  She's a man because of that. It goes back to what she says. Before they were a man or a woman, they were a boy or a girl. Before they were even a boy or a girl, they were just human. It just goes all the way back to having the driving. I agree with that. I want to go back to the situation they were talking about. It comes to a point where it can go kind of too far. Like, oh, let me open this jar of pickles. Okay, I feel like, man, now I don't need to open every jar of pickles ever again. You can do it sometimes, too. It comes to the point where a woman has to be like, I can do some things, too. You ain't got to do everything. Do y'all own, do y'all feel like a guy has to pay for me? I mean, me personally, I'm going to all the period cash on me or something on me where I can pay for myself. But yeah, if he gets it, he should. Because if I get down on him just like, hey, let's go out or whatever, or if we just come to an agreement that we're just going to somewhere, then I can expect to pay for myself. If he happens to pay for me, cool. You know, nobody out on that. But if not, I'm not. We'll just leave up for it. I was just going to say, something me and Ella was talking about, two, three weeks ago. We talked about, you know, as a guy, you know you're going to pay for it. You know you're going to pay for it. Like, you know you're going to pay for it. But you just want to test, you might look and see like, the girl, you might look and see like, is she expecting me to pay for it? Like, you kind of want to see like, for instance, if you go out, and you're mine, you already know you're going to pay for it. But if she, she don't even reach for her pocket, like she bought, like, she can reach for her pocket, and then you're declining. Like, nah, you know, I got this. When she doesn't even reach for her pocket, then you know what's up. I declined all that, I declined all that because I feel like if it's like a first date testing, as a man, I wouldn't be really playing no games like that in that area on the first date. I'm automatically by default. It's sitting in my head. I'm paying for everything. Are we paying for it regardless? No, no, no, I'm not even, that's what I'm saying. I'm not making no moves to wait and see, I'm going to take care of everything with no games or no... You know what I'm saying? Do you understand what I'm talking about? Yeah, I get what you're saying. I get what you're saying, but see what she's going to do. To see her reaction is cool. But on the first date, I'm automatically by default. Like, before she even tried to, when the bill comes on the table, ma'am, please just hand it to me. You ain't got to put it on the table. I know some girls who are reaching their pocket and know they don't have nothing in their pocket. It's at all, like, out of life. And if I wait, right, and if I wait, you embarrassed. Right, and if I wait, you embarrassed. And hold on. I don't care anymore. I can't dance, you know. I'm just going to take it real. I'm just going to take it real and tie this. Keep it real. I'm going with a girl. Please respect me. Look nice. Shopping, eating food, all my real. I pay everything.    I pay everything. Just accept guys who are with me. I with the other guys, they're with me.  Don't worry.   People to go, because any other place is terrible to a friend or a girl who needs a friend to do it for them. Because that's how Africans do. You have it in life, but it's not what it was before. But that's not the one you can't expect. That's everybody. You can't expect that from her. You can't expect that from her. But it goes back to what I think that's the most important thing. A man's back to a man's when your man's down.  If your man walks into a job, you have to put down a job. You have to carry the household until your man gets back on.   I can invest, but I can't. I can't. It's the whole thing. The whole TV show. Because on the first stage, for example, I wouldn't want to be on a news front. Because you know, y'all do a little corny on the Facebook. You have no attention. But I feel like I feel like her purchase is my side of the spectrum. Because her reaching for it is kind of subliminally saying that, you know, I can do without you. Exactly. She should expect the best. Not too much. But it's cool to offer to pay from time to time. Just to let me know that you're not just with me, for what I can do for you. And the type of person I am, most of the time I will not let you pay, I won't.  You know, not when, if maybe I joke for it, for example, and say, you know, pay for this, you get mad. Like the 10,000 meals I paid for, you didn't say, thanks. But one thing, I told you to pay. You want to act up. That's what I'm trying to do. You know what I'm saying? If you want, if that's your vision, you have to, like, do the job for it. So, what's going on right now? I'm financially sick. My mom is right here. She's the first lady to go out, okay? Well, you can't just go out, I don't get what I'm saying. But that's what I'm saying. It's not necessary that you're financially sick. I feel like when you're looking for a woman, you're not just looking for, you know, somebody who's pretty.  So, if it's somebody who just wants me to pay my own time, what that tells me is that you're going to be the same way as a mother, if I lose my job, you're just going to be sitting at home and that makes pretty much it. That's what I'm thinking about. So, not necessarily try to imagine what life's like. Show me that you're able to help me as well. Your benefits in my life as well, not just me. So, show that she can be a wife. She's like, you can be a wife. That's out of the story. Give life. So, it's for the real life. How do you outbiddle when the woman actually assumes you're your role? Like paying for the middle, you know what I'm saying? She's not chickened out. She's not chickened out.  I'm asking you this, I'm asking you this. Oh, she's doing her job. Because I don't want to do it. You know what I'm saying? You know what I'm saying? You know what I'm saying? You know what I'm saying? You know, we should pay for the meals. We should like hold the door open and stuff like that. So we like, how do you feel that you're doing this? That's weird. It depends. But hold on. Don't let her know that me is weird. I appreciate you guys. If she does it all the time, it's weird. But if she does it once, for example, you know, I find it cute. I find it like, okay, she's not just pushing because I'm a man. It's, you know, she genuinely wants to be with me. If the world would reverse, I was the woman. She was a man. She'd take care of me just the same. But as far as doing it all the time, that's a matching number. That's like, wow. What's that double bar? Yeah. So like on Instagram, it's for the ladies and she had a question for the meals. If you were on the first date and the boy was supposed to pay and his one car did not work, would you pay? For both of y'all, would you have to pay for your meal and the detergent? Yes! I'll pay for the meals. She doesn't know him! Yeah. I mean, y'all don't think this is funny, but we don't have to reassess the situation. If your car is to climb, I'm gonna sit there and just think for a second, okay? Oh, you know what? First off, we're gonna do that in another car. Okay.  Oh, yeah. You know what? You can have another car. You can have another car. But, I mean... But this is the only car. You should have chosen me. His only car. His only car. Well, he ain't had no money. I mean... It's okay. You can have it at the notes. I can give you a... I can give you a... I can give you a... I can give you a... I can give you a... I can give you a... I can give you a... I can give you something more. Maybe he was expecting more than what he had. You know? So, I'll give you the benefit of that first time. Cool. I'll pay for it.  Like, because you... Because the man I'm talking to already is somebody like... But y'all don't know who he is. And he's not getting the car. He already knows the type of person. So, I'm not gonna furthering that to late now.  But if that second date and the same thing happen, and I see in the pattern, there's a problem. If you're about to second date, you're talking about your car still getting the car. Let's talk to them. Oh, so... Back to what he was saying earlier about, like, opening all the jars or pickles or whatever they are. I feel a little... When a man does everything... They're just trying not to let you do anything else? Yes. It's actually, if you're used to being independent, like, a man trying to... If you're used to questioning a woman, but if a man can do everything for you. Because that's not okay. If you're used to questioning a woman, what's the problem? That's the problem. That's the problem. Especially if a man can do everything for you. Like, you need to question your womanhood, because once he walks away from you, what's she gonna do? Amen. What's she gonna hide you? How you gonna figure out how you can do something? He has everything. Exactly. I feel like a woman's job will come in when you have that role for a man's life. It's serious, like, if you know you got a good one, why not cook for him? Why not have his little brother cook for him? You don't have to indicate it to your man. What is the thing, what Instagram thought you were gonna do it? What Snapchat host gonna do it?   He's just like, cook for him. And a video is a lot of what she's saying. I'm speaking from a guys perspective, not from a girls perspective. But, like, I feel like, because I know this transition in myself, I can't say, I can't say I'm all the way the most manliest of all men yet. I can't say that because it's a process. It's a process. We still college students. What I'm saying is this, like, I know this transition in myself. Like, a boy, a boy will appreciate you just for your looks. And that's it. Like, that's as far as it goes. But a man will appreciate your qualities. You feel me? Like, that's something I noticed in myself.  And I would still do that up to this day. But now it's about qualities. It's more about what you bring to my life. Can I learn something from you? If I can't learn from you, then why? You know what I'm saying? So I feel like that, I feel like that's a big difference as well. I think when she said, hey, don't be your man, I feel like it's a two-way street. It's 50-50 think it is.  Oh, okay. That's what I'm talking about. I'm not gonna be your man. That's the one thing. I didn't work the whole time. Okay. I feel like, I feel like as a man, like, how you said it was like, it's a 50-50 thing when she was talking about catering. Okay, like as a man, I think that 50 that we bring is default. Like, as a man. Because we're supposed to. You know what I'm saying? We're not, I guess, trying. If you're in a relationship, you're not really trying to become a man in that process. You should by then be closer to a man stays in a boy if you're getting into a relationship. So when you're bringing that 50% that you do bring, when you say it's a half-a-half, the girl's gonna cater to me or cater to me and treat me right like that. Like, I'm gonna automatically be a man. I should desert that in a way. A little bit. Because I'm gonna be a man regardless.  So I think I deserve a little catering. I don't like, I don't like the term cater. I don't like the term cater. Okay. I think a better way to say it is that, is that a woman should make a man's life easier. She'll bring peace. That's dope.  And cooking, you know, as overlooked as that is, is a way to do that. Because I mean, we can both cook. Chance is on, you cook a lot better than me.  So it shouldn't just be the female like going on and on about her day, but to ask her man about how your day was, or how is your job treating you, or what is it that I can do, like make sure your kids are in bed at a decent hour, make sure your meal is cooked live. I'm not saying work to see or make sure that you don't have to go to the job to come. Would you expect that from a woman who works the same amount of hours as a guy? Because if we're both working, if we both have a busy schedule, if we both have a working schedule, you're going to hire a cameo. But Tom, you were saying that it was making it seem like if the woman was a stay-at-home wife, a stay-at-home mom, but that's not for everyone. But even if you have a busy schedule, I feel like as a female, you learn this as a kid, or at least I have, you keep that household up. I don't care what you got going on in the other room.    That's not what I can say. I'm going to make sure that you are in bed. I'm going to tell you that you will have lunch packed for you in the morning. That's what I'm saying. What's your merit? To take some of the pressure, to take some of the pressure of women, let's take some of the pressure of women. I think now some guys are different, but I think most guys are more concerned with the question not can you cook or will you cook. You get what I'm saying? They're more concerned with the question not can you cook or will you cook. You get what I'm saying? Because we are, nobody, you know, so I feel like that's a great deal. At least for me, it's willing. If you can buy it, I have to be some human figure.  No, no, no, no. As a female, when you start talking to a guy, when you start dating a guy, does he have to ask you to do the shit? Because most oftentimes it's the guy that always took care of you. Because it's always helpful to me. So it's good for boys? Speak loudly. I can't accept it. It's always good if a man can cook. I think our point is, I think our point is, if you're driving down a road with your man and the car breaks down and he sits next to your car.  How would you feel the wife and the car?  We go. I got a question. I got a question. Alright, go ahead. You go. So, do you feel any different if the man, when y'all do make that stop, do he get out of the car and change the tire or try to call someone? No. Try to sit here in the situation. Yeah, try to change the tire. He did have a man to handle the situation.  Didn't want to help her drive, anything like that. And I looked at her and I was like, oh, so you're not going to get out? And you might not. She got it. That's a problem for me. Because when you're always in the household and you're always cooking and cleaning and your man don't want to help you. And that's the point of trying to get to him. He should be willing to help at some point. I'm not saying you have to do everything, but I'm saying as long as you show me that you're really trying to help me, then it's fine. I have a problem with all this. Because that's what I hope to get. I think in a partnership, you know, marriage with a friend of her, it's been beautiful. I feel like, you know, we are men and women, but we're both leaders in our own right. And what I mean by that is that it's certain aspects of life that I feel like she's going to believe. Just like the certain aspects that I should step up and be, like, provide. I should be the leader. We could both provide.  But it's different between the quarterback and the receiver. It's the same thing with food. I can cook too, but I shouldn't be the leader of the household when it comes to the kitchen. You know what I'm saying? Just like you shouldn't be the leader of the household when it comes to fixing the car. Or making sure our bank statements are more balanced. So, okay, I have a question. Do guys, like, I mean, I would expect to have to pay half my bills once I'm there to pay some of my bills. Do guys expect for a female to pay any of the bills? I don't expect much. No, I don't. What do you mean? You don't want to pay any of the bills. You don't want to pay any of the bills. You don't want to pay any of the bills. Okay. You don't want to pay any of the bills. I have a question. My mother was married and took care of the kids. So I was like, coming to kindergarten, and my father did all of that, so my mother don't have kids right there. Okay, she was working, but she wasn't working all day. So what he did, when she got her back, I mean, that could help him, but when I get married, I'm going to be that woman that my husband pays his bills. I'm going to let him do him. It depends how you was raised. If you were raised in the city looking at home, your mother did this for you today, you was raised to do that. So it depends on how you was raised. Yeah, because I feel like when you're married, it's not a mind-bill to your bills, it's our bills. It's our bills. You're right. That's what we're talking about. That's what we're talking about. That's what we're talking about. That's what we're talking about. Even if I'm not paying like the mortgage or the big bills, I feel like I can give you a tribute to stuff like that. My parents have been married for 30 years. What's he and who's here saying? It's African men. We want our wife to work because she loves to, not because she has to. My parents have been married for 30 years. My mom works, my dad works. They have a joint account. They both have separate accounts as well. But they have a joint account. It's not like, baby, you pay the mortgage and I'll take care of the cable or the light. We live in this household. We have kids. We have to sustain our family. So, yes, she is more of the homemaker even though she works 40 hours a week because she wants to. He still provides, he still does everything concerning the cars, the lines, all of that. But when it comes to financial, he balances the checkbook. He does all that. I even asked her this year, like, Mom, did y'all fly to Texas? I don't know. I don't do that. I have to do that. Your dad does that. So, it's not like it's yours and mine. It's yours as one. But I feel like if you're dating, that is all irrelevant. Yeah. I mean, if you're dating, well, if you're dating, you don't have to have a joint account. Yeah. I know. Oh, I pay. You are doing that? No, not necessarily paying bills, but just to wait. Is this marriage practice? I feel like this is marriage practice.  You're not supposed to date against irrelevant. I'm not supposed to pay bills. Yeah. I mean, from my lifestyle, like, my mother and my father, they put together, like, the more of you, just like, a thousand dollars a month, he's going to put his 500, she's going to put her 500. Because in my situation, my dad died, so my mom had to carry on those responsibilities by herself. If she was depended all on my dad, like, he had to pay everything what she did. She was the mother, like, she did everything when he died, she had to solely provide for the family. So if she would have had, you know, a job, she would have been able to do what she could do without him there. So I think she should be able to provide for her home, just as much as she should. It should be, but she don't have that mill, that mill, but wants to know her pay. Yeah, exactly. She has to know how to sustain herself. Right.  That's what we should do. Yeah, listen. It doesn't mean you should be abusing her privilege. I think in my experience, you should be able to come out to the lazy and not be impatient. I'm willing because I feel like it's my responsibility, you know, just in case, in the future, I might not be here. So if you're not abusing her privilege, it doesn't come out quickly for you. And watching the dish, it doesn't mean on a very tough day that she's not there, but she's so that I can't do those stuff. You should be able to do it, you know, where she's not there, but you are doing it every day. Like, don't abusing her privilege.   You should be ambitious. Instead of, you know, the money you want to bring to pay the bill, sell it. Surprised me, you know what I'm saying? Surprised me with something big, I don't understand what it's going on. It doesn't mean I don't want you to pay the money because I don't see why. I mean, I agree. I'm just saying so individuals should come together and make one. It shouldn't just be one, and then she just takes it wrong. I think personally, I think if a woman is paying as much as I am as far as bills, it's unbalanced. Because to me, kind of like Jacolles said, you can't quantify motherhood. If you're a mother to my kids, that's a job of nothing. You understand me? So to make you pay bills as well, people look at it. That's not what I'm saying. That was just my logic though. You don't have to pay half, but she should be contributing to something. She should be contributing to something. She should be contributing to something. She should be contributing to something. She should be contributing to that. She should be contributing to that. Motherhood is so complicated. I think it needs people's self-cleaners. It needs people's self-determination. It needs money, and has a good time. Oh, it needs money. I got to make $1. I'm out of money. She got $1. Yeah, you look at it. I have five brothers, and one of my brothers is a lawyer. And his total number. Is $2. I'm not saying that I'll ruin what brother he needs. He has my niece and my nephew.  And my brother, although he leaves my niece and my nephew with one of my other brothers during the day for when he comes home late at night, he's still able to get up in the morning and do my niece's hair. He's still able to make sure that my nephew is provided for. So I feel like with the whole role of, like she said, can a woman do it when a man is not there? And can a man do it when a woman's not there? Look at my dad and I was like, um, so what would you do if mom was here because my mom always does two keys here, like my little sister's parents here.  I'll see what you're not going to be able to do for you. Because if mom's not here, what are you going to do? Or if all the women left this world, would you be able to take care of these girls, is my thing? Or your little boy, without a woman being there? That's what I was saying earlier about, who can do what is not. And who can do what is not. But what about that? He said in my hand, something's all about that. But what about that? She does it. She does it. She does it. She does it. I don't know. Exactly. She does what they do. I've left her, but then I do you better. I'm going to go with her.

Hello, my name is Bethany O'Rear and I'm a Regional Extension Agent for Alabama Extension. Thank you for joining me today to learn more about container gardens, a part of our series for home vegetable gardens called Grow More, Give More. At the end of this presentation, you'll see a list of some publications that you might find useful at our website, ASUS.edu. There are so many great reasons to get involved in container gardening. Sure, limited space might be the reason you first start with containers, but there are also gardeners who have always had lawns and trees and want to try vegetable or herb gardening without a big commitment. Still, others find that containers are just the right size to accommodate access issues. Whatever the reason, if you choose the right containers for you and the plants you want to grow, I think you'll be pleased at how much success you'll have. Having said that, containers are also great for controlling invasive plants, so if you want to grow mint for tea, only grow it in a container, never in your garden. Trust me on that. Vegetables need sun, water, and food. A good container will drain well and can be placed where the plant will get enough sunlight to thrive. Beyond that, it's up to you. Formal clay pot, recycled bucket, or prefab vegetable box. There are choices for every budget and taste. If you're new to container gardening, you might want to try a few different types. Pots and containers can also be mixed in with other gardening projects with kids like painting and personalizing, or with more grown-up garden design. Here are some container selection tips. No matter which container you choose, it must have at least one drainage hole, otherwise you will create a small pond. Another point to consider is the size. Make sure your pot is large enough to support the mature size of the plant or plants that you plan to add to that pot. Weight of the container should also be a factor.  Heavy containers prevent this flexibility. Location also plays a role in the containers that you choose. If your pots are located in high-traffic areas, you may want to choose ones that are more decorative. However, if your container is located in a less visible area, functionality, not aesthetics, can be your primary consideration. A good potting mixture is the key to healthy container vegetables and herbs. The soulless mix needs to drain well but still hold enough moisture so that watering isn't a three-time-a-day chore. You can find bag mixes at your local garden center or you can choose to mix your own. The internet has made choosing plants so easy, but I still prefer advice from a local garden center or nursery. When choosing vegetable varieties, look for those which include patio or container in the name. Also, an all-American selection winner is a gold standard because they've been tested in gardens across the country. When you're ready to choose your plants, know your containers first. Tomatoes need at least five-gallon containers and six hours of sunlight. On the other hand, many herbs can be grown in a flower pot. Figure out what you can accommodate before you choose plants. Be sure to water adequately and consistently. The needed amount will vary as the plants grow and seasons change. Plants need food but they don't need too much. Sound familiar? A lot of potting mixes already have fertilizers built in for three to six months. If you're not sure, look on the label for three numbers like 14, 14, 14. Those are the shorthand for the fact that nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium have been added to your soil. If you start fertilizing right away or too much, you might overfeed your plants. If you're not using an enhanced potting soil, there are lots of choices to help your plants grow. Slow release, dry, or liquid fertilizers. The most important thing is to read the label. So now that you have a vision of the container garden you'd like to plant, I'd like to share a few last words for the wise. Clay pots are beautiful but porous. They need extra watering and can't be stored outside in winter unless they're protected from frost. Black plastic pots will fill just like your car's steering wheel on a hot summer day, so imagine how the roots will fill. Drip irrigation is easy to install and really helps on those hot summer days. Secure your pots with vining plants sooner to save a lot of headache later. No matter what you choose, be sure to check your garden daily. You'll see what needs extra water, what needs to be picked, and what is attracting butterflies or pollinating bees. Lastly, take photos for your own pleasure and make notes to help you plan next year's garden. For more information, check out our resources at asis.edu.

Hey guys, so in this video I'm going to be talking about the best practices for forex traders. So what this simply means is what are the top six things that you should always do as a profitable forex, or at least if you want to become a profitable trader. So I'm going to be dropping six bullet points, things that you should always do while trading forex. So guys, if you want to find out more about this, I suggest you stick around to the very end of this video. Now guys, let's go over to the video. Hey guys and welcome back to my YouTube channel. My name is Dapo Willis. Once again, it's amazing to have you guys back here. As always, now guys, like I was saying earlier today, I want to talk about the six best practices when it comes to trading forex. So I've made a list, because I was doing a little thinking.  So I'm thinking, what are the, you know, top six or top five things that, you know, could actually help my viewers, you guys that watch my content, what are the top five to six things that I feel could really help you guys so that every time it is you're getting into a trade or every time you're reviewing the market or you're doing your analysis, you know, it will kind of like guide you just being in your mind. So and you always know, guys, I always like to drop this in what step by step format in bullet points. So guys, let us see what's cracking today. Now before I get into the nitty gritty of this video, I need you guys to do me one little favor, smash that subscribe button right there and drop this video a like and don't forget to comment on this video. This is exactly how the videos get exposure. And we can obviously help more forex traders. You have to understand that I am on a mission. I am on a mission to help a million forex traders. Yes, the reason is because a lot of forex traders are just suffering. They're sick, tired, they're stressed out, they're absolutely suffering. And we need to change that more people need to be able to make money from the forex market and not just the broker. So guys, let's jump into the nitty gritties of this video. All right, guys, so the number one thing when it comes to, you know, best practices as a forex trader, number one thing that I encourage you guys to always do is to first of all, it's quite simple and basic, but a lot of people just don't know how to go about it. The very first thing is you want to define the market structure. For me, this is paramount. This is the very first thing I do. And I usually always do this on the monthly time frame. So what exactly is market structure? What direction is this market heading in? Are we going up? Are we going down? Or are we going simply going sideways? Now, once I'm able to determine whatever the what the hell this market is doing in the first place on the monthly timeframe or a weekly timeframe, then I give an example. Let's say as of the time I'm shooting this video, let me look at a pair and see what direction a pair is moving in at the moment. So from what I can see at the moment, AUD, USD seems to be very bearish, especially on the monthly timeframe. So I would simply go on the monthly timeframe and identify the direction, the flow of the river, what direction is this market heading to in the first place on a higher timeframe? Okay. First things first, I want to know what exactly is this market doing? What on a higher timeframe? So once I can identify what the market is doing on a higher timeframe, only then I will then, you know, imprint this in my brain. Only then will I scale down to a lower timeframe and trade in that direction. So market structures are very important. Like if you scroll down my YouTube channel, you'll notice the very first thing I always ask myself is what the hell is this market doing in the first place? All I'm asking myself there is what is the market structure? This will then guide your trading decision on lower timeframes. Okay. This will then guide your trading decisions on lower timeframes because once I can identify if this market is moving south, once I scale down to lower timeframe, my brain, my whole mind is just looking for sell opportunities. This way, if I see buy opportunities on lower timeframes, but the higher timeframe has told me sell, I would know that, okay, this buy opportunity will either be a losing trade or very temporary. Okay. So this is the hack. Okay. Higher timeframe direction of the market. What is the structure? And if the higher timeframe is moving sideways, then I know that on lower timeframes, I shouldn't really be expecting big moves. Because if the higher timeframe is ranging, for instance, the market isn't going to be trending, you know, 500, 600, it's just going to be going in a little, in a big range, right? So I will know that, okay, if I get in, I shouldn't be expecting to make anything more than 80 to 100 pips. So understanding market structure is actually very key and it should be the very first thing you should even think about whenever it is you open a what a forex chart. All right guys, so the second best practice you guys should always do whenever it is you're analyzing and trading forex market is once you've been able to identify the structure of the market, the second thing you should always do is try and identify areas of value. Now, I do, I analyze my areas of value on weekly timeframes. That's where you see me and this is where you see me come and plot my key levels. So areas of value are nothing more than areas whereby the market has respected a lot in the past. Now, why should we always trade from areas of value? It's because the market has told us historically that that level has been quite difficult to break in the past. And chances are that in the future, it's also gonna give us some headache. I'll take that again. The market has told us that this level is a significant level because it has reversed from this level previously. So how do you use areas of value to make profitable trading? How do we use areas of value to make profitable trading decisions? It's very simple. Personally, what I like to use my area of value for two things. So once I plot my levels, my key levels on weekly timeframes, I use it to first of all, identify profit targets. Because a lot of people might buy or sell and just because of the fact that they cannot identify the key areas of value, they can be holding a profitable trade and then the market gets to that area of value and then the market reverses and they go from having a winning trade to a losing trade. And one thing about traders is if the market probably gives you 350 pips and then the market starts reversing against you, most traders feel that, okay, I've made 350 pips, this market must give me back my 350 pips and then what happens is they end up holding that trade longer than they should. Happens to the best traders, it used to happen to me in the past. So area of value will save you from holding on to trades longer than you should hold on to them for. And the second way you can use areas of value, I like to use areas of value is when I scale down to lower timeframes and I want to enter a trade, I don't enter a trade at key levels, areas of value. I don't trade at those areas of values. I like to look for bounces. So let me put everything together in a clear perspective. I've been able to identify the market structure on a monthly timeframe and then I scale down to weekly timeframe and then I need to plot my key levels, my areas of value. So what I can do is, for instance, AUDUSD is bearish at the moment on a higher timeframe. I'm gonna wait for the market to bounce off of a resistant level, bounce off of a resistant level. Not, I'm not gonna be selling at the resistance level. I'm going to be trading the bounce off the level. Why? Because one thing about areas of value is, especially on lower timeframes, don't forget we analyze on higher, Forex mastery students, you know this. Forex mastery students, you know this. We don't trade at key levels. We trade the bounce of key levels because guys, one thing about areas of value is the fact that especially on lower timeframes, it is subject to a lot of market manipulation. Brokers, I wouldn't say brokers. Let's call them the people who move the market. I don't wanna cast a gate broker. So the people who move the market, they know that a lot of retail traders have orders at key levels. They know that a lot of them want to sell if it's at a resistance or they wanna buy at support.   I consider myself a smart money trader and I consider all my students on the Forex mastery course. I consider us smart money traders. So guys, on module five, I speak about market manipulation. This is very important, very important module because I remember back in the days I used to get victim for this. I'll put my sell order, sell limit at key levels and expect that the market will get there and bounce off and then come down and make me all this profit. However, what used to happen was the market would get there, fake out the level, take my stop loss out and then start falling back down. So how you should use your key levels is wait for the bounce, always wait for the bounce off of these areas of value. So that's the second point. Use areas of value to your advantage. First thing I use area of value for is to enter my trade. I wait for the bounce, reject it. Go and run all the stops and then reject it.  Number one, number two, I use areas of value to what set my profit target. So guys, obviously I'm going through these points bit by bit. I don't have my chance to explain all this, but on the forex mastery course, I actually go into this in detail, okay? Detail as to how you can plot these areas of value, how you can use the bounties and how you can plot the levels and actually anticipate profit targets up to 1,000 to 2,000 pips is madness. You think I'm joking? Scroll down my YouTube channel, you see me. I'm projecting thousands of pips. Speak to the students, they love this. This is the first time they've been able to project and some traders have never been able to project 500 pips into the future. These first some traders are actually coming in and actually seeing that, listen, I can actually project thousands of pips into the future, but I'm not gonna dwell on that too much. Let's go over to the next point. All right guys, so the third point when it comes to market best practices out of our top six is being able to identify reversals. So this is so key because point number one, we covered market structure, okay? You have to know where the market is going. Point number two, areas of value, take profit and entries and kind of like how to get into the market. Point number three, you need to be able to identify reversals. Now, a lot of people struggle when it comes to identifying reversals because I've seen a lot of situations whereby people are in trades and then there's probably like a lot of pips in profit and then for some strange reason, the market just turns around. Now, the question is how do you really identify reversals? Now, a lot of, so there's a module on the Forex Mastery course where I speak about is dedicated to reversals, but I'm gonna give you guys kind of like the ideology, the idea behind how you can identify reversals in the market. Now, for those of you who wanna grab the course, the link is gonna be down in the description as always. Now, for me, how I identify my reversals and from what is very important is, I always like to look, so reversals on higher timeframes, for instance, the weekly, if I see a double top on the weekly timeframe, I know that this whole bigger strain is about to change. Now, on lower timeframes, how do you identify reversals? I identify reversals on lower timeframes. I'll give you an example. Let's say I'm in a cell trade on GBP-USD on a one-hour timeframe and the market is collapsing, coming down, coming down, coming down. And then I notice that the market comes into not a major level of support, but I can see that there's a, that level is kind of like a support level, but it's a minor support level, right? And I see the market coming to that level. Ideally, I'm expecting that the market should break the level because the momentum is massive. We have an overall 1,000 PIP to run. Let's say we've done our analysis and we have 1,000 PIPs to look into. We've done our analysis, we're heading for 1,000, we're heading for the home run. But then I notice that as the market is selling off on a lower timeframe, I notice that obviously on lower timeframes, you can see minor support levels, right? And then I notice that on a one-hour timeframe, the market gets to a minor support level. We get there, we struggle around that area for a bit, and then the market bounces off of that level. I'm like, all right, cool. And then the market attempts that level again. Now, if on a one-hour timeframe, I see that we put it a double top at a level, sorry, a double bottom, okay? A double bottom at that level. What I'll most likely do is I'll most likely move my stop losses from where they are, slightly past break even. Now, what does all of this mean? On lower timeframes, if you want to identify market reversals, it has to occur at a level. However, on higher timeframes, reversals don't have to occur on any level. If I see a double top on a weekly timeframe, best believe my entire bias is changing. Now, when it comes to lower timeframes, if I see a double bottom or a double top, whichever the case may be, I will know that the market wants to go for a retracement. This doesn't mean that the entire market is reversing. It simply means that a retracement wants to occur. I'm going to take this again. On lower timeframes, when chat patterns occur like double tops and double bottoms, the entire trend isn't changing. It simply means that that market wants to stop falling temporarily and we want to go for a retracement to continue heading back in that direction. However, if I see a chat pattern be a double top, double bottom, head and shoulder and inverse head and shoulder, if I see that form on a weekly timeframe or a monthly timeframe, I don't need it to form at any key level. Once I see that bam, it simply means that the whole trend is about to change. So guys, this is exactly how you go about deciphering, but I see a lot of people make big trading decisions just because a one hour timeframe showed you a double bottom. I've seen double bottoms form on one hour timeframes and the market comes back and crushes that support level that was holding that market previously. You get what I mean? So this is the difference. One hour timeframes don't really hold that much strength. You get what I mean? Lower timeframes don't really hold that much strength. So I usually like to do my analysis on higher timeframes and then execute the trade on lower timeframes. So all I'm gonna be looking at on lower timeframes as for those little, I call them speed breakers, right? They're speed breakers. Doesn't mean that the car is gonna stop going in the direction. It just means that the car just wanna slow down, climb the bump and continue going. However, at that time, I will then start locking in profit because the market might want to go for an even bigger retracement that might stop me out in the process. So this is the difference. Lower timeframes, chat patterns don't change trends. Higher timeframe chat patterns change what the trend. So guys, once again, like I'm saying, I'm sorry I can't break this down into little chunks. The Forex Mastery course will be able to help you do this and the link is gonna be down below. All right guys, so the last tip I'm gonna leave you guys with before I have to run off. I've already been recording for about 17 minutes is please don't get distracted by the news. I remember starting off in the Forex market I remember I used to watch the news on Bloomberg. I used to check Forex factory every now and then I was so like zoomed into the news and I just used to wait for them to say something serious and then I want to trade that in the Forex market. The news only accounts for just 5% of market movement. I'll tell you what actually happens in the Forex market when it comes to news. There are only two news events that actually really move the market per se, okay? Overall, like if you prorate it based on how many times the news releases have come out and how many times the markets have really, really more significantly, you find out that there are only two major news events that actually get the market shaking. That's non-farm payroll and FOMC.  I simply just don't trade on non-farm payroll Fridays. What I do is I wait for non-farm payroll figures to come out and then I execute my trade. Technicals will always win in this market. The overall trend will always win. There are several times whereby the market has been, let's say, bearish and then non-farm payroll figures came out, it was really good, the market spiked back up and then three to four days later, I noticed that the market corrected all the way back to its original trend. So what I'm trying to say here in essence is don't be shook. The only traders that are really shook by these news releases are traders that are always looking at lower timeframes. If you're always looking at lower timeframes to make your trading decisions, it's gonna shake you. But if you, for instance, like the Forex Mastery students, you have the bird's eye view of the market. You can see exactly where the market is going to, okay? It's just like a farmer that is probably looking at a particular season to harvest his crops or plant his crop, whichever the case may be. And he knows that, I give you guys an example, in the UK we have winter from, we go winter in the UK from October all the way up till March, okay? And then summer comes around late April all the way back till September, okay? So you know these are the fixed seasons. You know these are the fixed, okay? These are the key levels, you know? And then let's say sometime in summer it now snows. You already know that the next day or next three, four days you can't wear a winter jacket to go out because it's gonna be, the weather is gonna go back to status quo because this is the season. Same thing in Niger as well. We know raining season is between April to October. So we know that and then we know dry season starts in around after October, is it October to April? Can't remember what the seasons are. Anyways, we all know that in December in Nigeria if it rains in December on one day we know that, okay, it's rained but we know subsequent days is gonna get dry and very dry and very cold, okay? Cause it's the hammered hand season. So this is the same thing with news releases. It's just a distraction, focus on the key trend, focus on the bigger picture. So guys, ladies and gentlemen, I wanted to say big thank you for staying to the very end. I don't know if I covered up to five points but I've actually written a lot more than this but I think these ones are actually the best ones. So I'm just gonna quickly recap, right? So first one is define market structure before you get into any trade. First thing is you wanna define market structure. Second thing, identify the areas of value. Like I said, the Forex Mastery course is gonna teach you guys how to do these things properly. Pay attention to reversal signs, especially on higher time frames but on lower time frames, if they occur on minor support and resistance levels, best believe that that market was going for retracement. And yeah, don't get fooled by the news events. They're nothing but a distraction. Thank you for sticking around till the end of this video guys. I wanna say big thank you. It's been 21 minutes, the long last video. Thank you for staying to the very end. Don't forget to drop me a like and subscribe. Once again, the link to the Forex Mastery course is gonna be down below. Guys, I'll catch you later. Take it easy and peace out.


Here's our program that just continuously draws randomly colored circles to the screen. So in the setup block, we set the size of the display window, and down here in draw, we declare two float variables. X is a random number between zero and the width of the screen, and Y is a random number between zero and the height of the screen. Then the fill is set by random colors, too. And each circle is drawn every time draws run through. All these variables are re-randomized. So this will just keep filling up with colored circles forever.


We started the restitution and everything was grounded. The government reached the doorstep. The government reached the government in the evening. We were online, we didn't get the ration card, the food, the clothes. We didn't get anywhere. We were looking for food, we were looking for food. We were looking for a restitution. We were looking for a pressure on the road map. Look at the roads, now we have nothing to look for. Today is very good, no pressure. All people still focused on the principal of the government. Nationally a lot of people werexw. We were allfr. I wanted to be the general secretary of vice-president of the government. I'll be willing to learn.
