I'm Sean Duffy, along with my co-host for the podcast, my partner in life and my wife, Rachel Campos Duffy. Sean, it's great to be back at the kitchen table. And for this episode of our show, this podcast, I came across an ex-handle of a guy. His name is Benjamin Black. Benjamin Black. And his description in his Twitter handle is that he's the founding father of three. He's creating content and resources for you to forge a family legacy, to outlive your grandkids and form a modern dynasty. And he did a post on the nine masculine traits that your son needs in order to find a decent woman.

And I really liked this idea because oftentimes we just, you know, there's women out there saying, you know, we can't find the right guy. Or we're telling guys and girls, you guys need to talk to each other, get off the phones. But actually, you first need to become great people who other people will be attracted to. Right. And in this society that has so marginalized men, has told men that they are, you know, not worth much, that, you know, masculinity is toxic. A lot of men have sort of surrendered to this. They throw their hands up and they say, fine, I'll go to my basement and play my video games. They throw their hands up and they say, fine, I'll go to my basement and play my video games.

And it's really up to the dads to go, no, you can be an amazing man. And that's the best way for you to find happiness because then you'll find the right wife. So first off, if you want a dynasty as a man, you need a woman to build a dynasty with because she's the one that's going to have your children to create the dynasty. We have this idea that our home is our castle, right? And we want a dynasty. And there's a lot that goes into creating a family and raising good kids. And again, he mentions it can live on beyond you because of the values and the ideas that you instill in your kids that will be passed down to your grandkids. It lives on after you're gone.

And I think that's really interesting. really interesting and it doesn't matter that shot it doesn't matter you could be the president or you can be the plumber anyone in between you can create your own dynasty because it's it's it's because we're wired for it we're made to procreate and have you know um grandkids and great-grandkids that outlive us and have that legacy, right? So what does not Jack Black say, but what does Benjamin Black say? Okay, so I was just so wanting to get your thoughts on it. So he says the first thing you need to teach your son... So wait, just to reiterate, we're talking about how do you prepare your son to be dateable or marriable?

Yes, both dateable and marriageable. Yes. Okay, let's go all right so the first thing he says you need is to teach your son to control his urges okay so i'm going to just unpack that for a second i imagine he's talking about you know young boys online looking at you know different websites that well he says in general lust is a sin and men obviously can fall for it and when they do by getting uh he says by getting the male urges under control he can actually channel that and that energy into a relationship i think that's a really good point if if a young man is satisfied online he won't be looking for satisfaction with another woman so you want to have a pent-up desire to go

i want to i want to find someone to to a woman to talk to or a young girl to talk to to maybe hold hands with maybe eventually i'll kiss her but if you're getting that somewhere else the urge to to build that with a real human being will be diminished so i think he's right on that again control your urges which is going to make you more focused on trying to find a girlfriend or maybe a mate. I think that it's so important, especially now where we're living in this digital world. I saw, you know, a lot of guys are using, they're starting to buy these Apple vision goggles. buy these Apple vision goggles. They're living in the AI. They're really, as you said, satisfying their needs for connection

and relationship with things that aren't even real, with bots, even like in the pornography realm, they're doing OnlyFans. These fake relationships to satisfy these urges that they biologically have. But by putting it into that, they're not, they're not becoming disciplined and strong and channeling that energy into productive things, whether it's work, sports, but also a relationship. So I think that's a very good one. So before we move on, to be realistic, how do you address this as a father, right? If kids have cell phones, this is an opportunity that they have, unless you're watching them all the time.

So you have to have that conversation. It has to be a conversation, right? And it's not just a conversation about no pornography, which, you know, obvious, I think pornography weakens men. It makes men weak. But also, which, you know, obvious, I think pornography weakens men, it makes men weak. But also like the why, like, I actually think you may think it's uncomfortable, but I think that it's an important conversation. Well, it is uncomfortable. Let's just be honest, that's an uncomfortable conversation to have. I'm not gonna lie. I'm glad you have to do it. And every man will be like, yeah, that's not a conversation I want to have with my young son. But I guess that's not a conversation i want to have with my young son but i guess that's one that has to be well sean the average because it's because the average age that a young man encounters pornography because of the phones is now 10 years old that's the average age that they first encounter

pornography so this is ubiquitous this is a very real temptation and it's everywhere it used to be like people worried that they might see the Victoria's Secret catalog. We're talking about hardcore pornography that's being targeted at young children that actually warps their brain. So this is a very serious thing. I bought the Sears catalog back in the day. I did, too. Okay, let's go to this. The next one he says is physical strength. Your son should have to have

some level of earned physical strength. He doesn't have to look like he's like, you know, the Statue of David, right? Although, wow, that, you know, that's a beautiful body. But if you, your son can't squat, can't carry, can't bench his bride to be, this man says, Benjamin says, he won't have the power to protect her. And I do think women have a desire to be with a man that they know can protect her. I know when our daughter got married to Michael, you know, a couple days before we were, you and I were, I don't know if you remember, we were having a conversation about, you know, our daughter and marrying her off and all the emotions of that, her being the first one to get married, the first daughter to get married. And I just said, you never know,

right? Because marriage is a crapshoot in a lot of ways. I said, but I can say, Michael will and can pull her out of a burning building. So let's be honest on this one. There's a couple things at play. So all things being equal, a man who is fit and has, again, you don't have to have the greatest dreams, but everyone can work to be a little more fit than what God gave them with not working out. But there's other things that come into play. So maybe it goes to taking care of someone. If you're really rich, you can see some nerdy, rich, really rich guys get really beautiful women.

Right? That can happen. That is true. I saw a lot of that when I lived in Beverly Hills. That's true. You saw that in Beverly Hills. So that can happen. But also you'll see funny guys.

Interesting. That can work as well. But it's easy. Just the go-to is work out. Just a little bit. Get a little stronger. And by the way, that's more attractive. Women will find that more attractive women will

find that more attractive when they see um a young man who looks firmer and by the way you're never gonna have it as easy as when you're young to work out like like take advantage of it while while it's easy right and it's going to give the young man more confidence yeah and confidence is an aphrodisiac absolutely okay um the next one he says is be an early riser now that's a really hard thing to each boy's like to sleep in um he says the dim hours of the early morning belong to men who get up and take them by seeking clean to the day he can bring masculine energy to every morning. She will find that alluring. A woman will never respect a man that values his pillow over prosperity. That's interesting. Again, young men like to sleep.

Well, they do need to sleep to grow. They like to sleep late. But I'm going to tell you what. I think that if I just look at young men, when you have young men who get up early and get about the day, get it going. Get to the gym, get to the job. None of them have any money, but I go, that one is going to do pretty well. That one who gets up and works hard is going to do better in life at providing for our family or our potential family if we ever get married because he's going up and taking it to the day. Oh, I see what you're saying.

What's interesting is you're saying being that guy, you're signaling to the woman through your, you know, your discipline of getting up early, getting the day going early, whether it's to go work out or to go to work or work that requires you to go early that you're signaling i i have discipline i can provide my brothers used to get up sean and this is the kids that get up at 10 o'clock or 11 o'clock my brothers used to get up at 4 30 in the morning because they were they delivered papers that was that's how old i am i had brothers who delivered the paper um in the morning and they would get up at 4 30 and and you you know my brothers they're hard workers yeah and sometimes listen sometimes like for me when i was, when I was in high school, sometimes I had to get up really early. And I got up early and did it.

And then sometimes I was able to sleep in. But I had no problem getting up and doing early work. Yeah. I like that one. You know, Michael Wahlberg, he's part of that, like, 430 club. You know, he's a guy. No, I think it's like a 230 club or a 3 o'clock club. I don't know.

It's super. I thought it was 430. It's really early. he's a guy i think it's like a 230 club i thought it was 430 it's really good for you mark walberg marky mark they've gone through bad itself i can't yeah he gets up he works out he cold plunges then he goes to mass i mean the guy's like incredible um all right practicality is the next one being practical is a skill befitting of any man it applies to many areas of thought working with your hands making suitable decisions knowing how to dress for the right occasion being prepared for anything it's a summation of be practical being practical is a summation of masculine capabilities you know sean this one's a little nebulous how do you teach someone to be practical how do you teach a son to be practical? You must have to just model it.

I think that was what I was going to say. A lot of this comes to what has the father in the home? Or if there's not a father, what are the brothers of the mother or the grandfather? What have they modeled to this young man? What do they see as normal, right? And if you're, they said dress well. Well, again, being fit and dressing well is more attractive to women. So try to dress the best you can.

Or appropriately for the occasion, right? You dress up a little bit for church or you dress up for an interview. Or if you go out to dinner, you try and look nice and your son might notice that. Or you go to the beach and you try to look nice when you go to the beach even. So, yeah, I think that's important, right? It's about presentation. Also, when I was young, I mean, when we dated, Rachel, if I would-

I wouldn't let him touch any of my clothes. If I would rub Rachel's shoulder, I would rip the fabric because I had so many calluses on my hands. I'd be holding, I held an hands. I think, don't ruin my silk clothes. I'd be holding, I held an ax, you know, and was...

Yeah, because he was, for those who don't know, Sean was a lumberjack. That was his job. Well, he did lumberjack sports. So I had, I was, I was firm and I was, had a lot of calluses.

And I think that's attractive. It shows hard work. Now... It was. Yeah. It was. It wasn't good for your clothes, but it was good for us. Don't good for your clothes but it was good

don't touch don't wear my sweater yeah but literally the calluses were so rough and sometimes cracking that you know if he if he rubbed anything that was soft yeah they weren't soft so once so i look i like that so i did too so dress nice be fit um don't relieve yourself with your phone try to find a woman. These are all really good, simple lessons. Let's do this. Let's take a quick break. We'll come back after and we'll do more. I think we have five more pieces of advice or four more left. Yeah. Yeah.

Yeah, his name is Benjamin Black. Okay, so he says that you have to have earning capacity. You should instill to your son that, you know, you mentioned the ugly old guys with the hot women in Beverly Hills. We talked about that. Yeah, it works. That women. But that's not most of us.

Yeah, a lot of women, you know, I know there's a lot about, you know, women and men and sharing and all that. I guess women like for a guy to, you know, have a good earning capacity. I think that's a natural thing for women to want. It's important to support your family. And he says, while it's important that the wife is with the man for better or for worse, it is a lot easier if there's more of the better than the worse. And that's fair.

It is fair. And so, by the way, Rachel married me when I didn't have any money. But that's it. No, no, no. No, let me, let me. Okay. So yes, we were both broke. We were both poor. You didn't have a career per se. You were a poor law student, but you were doing these lumberjack shows and you had more money than I did. And I remember that I was not very good at managing my money. And still is not. Somehow I had good shoes, but I had no money for rent. And so I remember when we were dating, I said, hey, Sean, I'm, I'm screwed. I can't, I don't have the money for the rent. And you covered the money for the rent. And that was a very important, you probably, I don't know the money for the rent. And you covered the money for the rent. And that was a very important.

I don't know if you realize that at the time. I don't remember this. I don't remember I gave you money for rent. I do remember. And it signaled a lot to me. Or when I would go see you. One time I went to go see you at a lumberjack show. And it was like a five or ten day show.

I forget how long it was. It was at the Calgary Stampede. And you flew me out there. By the way, you always covered my flights when I would go see you. You would also come and see me because we were living a long-distance relationship, the whole relationship that we were dating. You would pay my tickets whenever I went somewhere. I didn't have any cash. Like I said, I was broke. I was a disaster and i had a job i was a substitute teacher and i taught adult adult

spanish classes at beverly hills high when we dated her money was her money and my money was some things that's so funny but you always gave me money when i got went to see you you always paid for the meals when we were together we never went went Dutch. I mean, that was unheard of. And you signaled to me that you were going to take care of me. And you have. Thank you. Thank you. So I do think working hard is an ingredient for success and being able to take care of your family. And you can tell if you're, as adults, we can see what kids work hard and which ones don't. Right? And girls can see which young men work hard and which ones don't, whether it's in school or in a job or a combination of both.

But girls are looking at that. And so they want someone who is a little bit of a go-getter. And so if you're a dad, you might as well impart that wisdom that, you know you eventually if you want to have a woman you're gonna have to be the provider and you're gonna have to show um that you have that earning capacity so i think that was a good one but it's also important then to incentivize you got to get a job you actually you have to do well in school right as parents that's our job too and sometimes you do it better and sometimes worse but yeah sometimes you do it better and sometimes worse. But yeah, sometimes you do it better than I do. You mentioned that there are other ways that men can compensate for things that they don't have.

So maybe you're not the tallest or the buffest. Maybe you aren't the richest. But if you have a sense of humor, women love to have fun. And they love somebody who has a sense of humor that doesn't take themselves too seriously, that can make any moment enjoyable. And I think that that is like, you know, they say food is the way women get to a man's, you know, through the stomach, they get to the heart, right? Like men, like a woman who can cook a good meal. I think for a lot of women, a sense of humor is how you get to her heart.

Well, so I think, again, some men just aren't funny. There's only a few that are really funny. You don't have to be like comedian quality. You just have to have a good nature. Be lighthearted. Be open for fun. Be willing to laugh. At yourself, even.

At yourself in situations and be open to doing things. And I think that is what's attractive to a woman. So again, you don't have to be a comedian or a jokester, but you have to be fun. Be a fun person. And that's a tragedy for people. Yeah. Yeah, I like that.

I like that. Don't be a poop. All right. The next is leadership. But just a quick sec. Yeah. How do you instill that in your child? It's like if you got kind of a child

that's a little poopy or boring, it can be hard. How do you incentivize? I think the modeling of it is, you know, Sean, you usually come downstairs, you're in a good mood, you're joking with the kids. I mean, I think that having that kind of nature, if you were really stern and me, I mean, listen, you're going to have a kid that you could be a really stern dad and you could turn out, you know, Chris Farley. I mean, that can happen. But usually Chris Farley's come from pretty funny, lighthearted dads. Right. And so my, by the way, we're kind of showing our age with our Chris Farley comments here. But, you know,

I love Chris Farley. We do love love chris um and by the way we know someone who's who's related to him um but but the point is that i think that you know modeling for most of these modeling it for your son but also kind of talking to them if it's something that you have to impart you You can't be like, damn it, son, you got to be funny. Tell some jokes. That doesn't work, right? No. Where's your humor? But I think you're right to exhibit.

Helping to bring that out of them. Yeah. And to show some lightheartedness yourself and encouraging them to be a little more lighthearted and not take themselves so seriously. Yeah. Okay. Leadership. Women. I know we're in the girl boss era.

There's a lot of girl bosses out there, but there's also a lot of unhappy women, I think, because they are trying too hard to be girl bosses. And they're not, either they're not allowing men to lead, or they're not attracting men who are leaders. And I think that you and I talk a lot about the masculine and the feminine and finding that balance between that within ourselves, but also within that yin and yang of a relationship. And so most women, they don't want a man to tell them what to do. They don't want a man to. No, they don't want a man to dominate them. But they do want a leader, someone they can rely on, someone who they trust to take responsibility for this enterprise of a family, you know, whether it's providing, helping to make some of the most difficult decisions. I mean, usually we make decisions together, Sean.

We had a moment in our life that was a real sort of crossroads. And I was I had inertia. I was pregnant. I didn't want change. And it was probably the clearest, most recent example of you going, I'm sorry, I'm going to have to take the lead here. I know what's best for this family. I'm responsible for this family. I know you don't want to do this, but we're going to do this. And I had to sort of go, all right, I'm going to follow on this one. And in those moments, you really appreciate a man who can lead. And I have to say, it became very clear. It didn't become clear to me within six months, but within a year, it was very clear that you had made the right decision. And I had to tell you that. But I do think it's important to know that you people, that you're a couple, you make decisions together. You don't,

you don't have a dictatorship in a husband, but also there's times that, um, again, I think that leadership is important. And that's hard. This is a little harder for, um, for young boys, but for men who are in this phase to, to, to, to, to phase to exhibit leadership skills, or even to envision a vision for what do I see my life being like? Where do I like to live? Do I want to buy a house? What kind of job do I want to have? Do I want kids?

Like those kind of things mean that you're thinking about the future. And I think that's attractive also to a girl that might think, oh, I would like that future too. Or by the way, if the girl doesn't like your vision for your future, you should probably go a different direction. Go find someone else. That's a good point. But I also think it's really hard for a teenage boy to think that far down the line. That's true. That's true. I think the role of the dad is probably, and you tell me, Sean, just to help create opportunities for him to have leadership opportunities, I guess is what I'm trying to say.

So if maybe it's, sorry about my voice here. It's responsibility, right? You've been taking responsibility and saying, you know what, there's an expectation that we're going to work together doing certain things because this is what the men do in the house. Also... You're going to take out the trash. That's your job.

Or I need you to go take this kid to this birthday party and on the way go get this present. And I know that all my kids are going to be safe because he is mature enough to get in the car and know what we expect of him and he's going to do it like so and yeah so i think giving people responsibility sports and clubs and those kinds of things and or maybe you have a kid who's like i don't want to run for student body president because i think i'm gonna lose him like giving giving him that nudge and that encouragement to go, you can do it. You've got what it takes.

I remember our son was, you know, the school that they go to require, it's a really small school. And so it requires when one sibling graduates, the other siblings that are in the school have to give a speech about that sibling. It's really a wonderful tradition that they have at the school. And our son is very shy. And, you know, but this was an expectation. And you helped you work with him, you practice with you, and he rehearsed. And but, you it's it's those opportunities for leadership you didn't you didn't say hey i'll i'll i'll talk to the school and so you can get out of it or some crazy stuff like that you were like sorry this is what you got to do and he was terrified i know he was but he did it and he overcame it and i think it was one of it was a very formative moment for him

to know that he could do that because he honestly did not think he had the ability to do it. And he did a great job. And so I think those kinds of moments, those opportunities, whether it's in sports, whether it's in clubs, those give kids, young men, the opportunity to show leadership. And leadership ultimately is something that they want. The next one is intellect. Obviously, you want a sharp mind, right?

I mean, every girl wants to marry somebody who's not dumb as rocks. So to show my age, you don't want Spicoli. Right? What's the brand again? Remember Spicoli? Oh, is that Fast Times? Yeah, Fast Times, Brisbane. Hi, thank you.

Like, you don't want that dude. Like a dumb drunk. The dumb surfer in the back of the room. You want someone. What if the dumb surfer in the back of the room is really cute sorry not long term that's right by the way that young hot surfer is going to turn into an old fat surfer it was cute but yeah you're right that's probably true he's gonna be an old boy when i lived in san diego sean i lived in la jolla with all kinds of you know surfers and, you're right. There is,

there are really cute, young, fit surfers. And then there's this other generation of hanger on old beer bellied surfers who never moved on. And you're right. Those are not marriageable. So just on that point, again, knowing what's happening in the world, being somewhat well-read, being smart, being interesting, is attractive to not just girls, but also to her friends. And it's going to go to the next one, being attractive to her parents. And again, can I just finish what he said on the intellect before we move to that one? He says, a man who sharpens his mind will never be dull his understanding of the world and situations will entertain will provide a level of subtle comfort knowing that she can rely on his mind to supply an answer for their problems again this is this is these are things that you would never hear in a women's studies class right no but these are things that are are true to human nature

huge and true to natural law true to the way we actually are not the way you know somebody in in in a women's study wants the relationship between the sexes to be but how they actually biologically physiologically anatomically and intellectually are and and that this is very good it's that yin yang it's that complementarity of the sexes and that is a really important one now that doesn't mean that women don't need to sharpen their mind because you know you don't men want to be want the same thing um you know and and obviously the quality of the conversation is better when both people are sharpening their minds and having deep, interesting, philosophical, humorous conversations. I think that that's really good. I like that Benjamin, Benjamin Black. If you want to follow

him on Twitter, I think his stuff is really interesting. The last one, Sean, totally blew me away. I did not expect this, but I thought this was really good. How to get on with her dad. He says, fathers are very protective of their little girls. If he can prove he's a capable young man, he will put himself in good light in her father's eyes. He isn't just marrying her, he's marrying into a family too this is one that goes both ways too sean this goes both no that was it that was it and i i what i mean is that you i'm marrying into your family too i gotta get along with your family too and i think about i think about our son-in-law couldn't be happier so this is my view if her dad likes you

he he will be your best advocate when you're not around and if her dad doesn't like you he is going to slash your tires all day long and so if like her, the best thing you can do is get on her dad's good side. Be a gentleman, be nice, respect her, respect him, respect their whole family, be interested in their family, participate in their family. And if you do that, the dad might go, this kid's actually pretty good. I actually kind of like him. And then he might go, this kid's actually pretty good. I actually kind of like him. And then he might go, how's it? You guys doing well? You still dating?

How's it going? I mean, he'll be interested in helping courage this relationship versus a kid he doesn't like. Oh, you don't want dads that don't like little girls' boyfriends. Yeah. Because he will undermine that stuff all day long. But then you could also get a Romeo and Juliet situation. If you're trying to pull them apart, they may want to be together more. But I think you're right. And I think that's good advice in general.

I think young men, if you're going to go, and this is the job of the dad to teach the son. You know, one of the things, and we've talked about this before, but I'm going to talk about it again, um, on the podcast, you know, our now son-in-law came to pick up our daughter, um, on a date, um, when they were dating in high school and she said, oh, he's outside. And he had texted her and Sean said, oh no, that's not going to work. You better tell him you better come to the door. And so that's great. He ended up coming to the door and now he always,

he rang the door and he was like, hi, Mr. Duffy. But also like, that's something too, that like, he was uncomfortable and they left together and she was uncomfortable. He has a nice dad. I'm sure his dad told him not to do that. And maybe Michael just, you know. Comes from a good family, yeah. Comes from a great family, so I'm not saying that. But that is something too, like, you know, because dating is not that common anymore, Sean.

Kids don't know how to date anymore. They may need the dad to teach them. If I could have just texted, you know, a girl that I was going to prom with and not gone in, I probably would have. That's a default yeah you gotta you gotta incentivize to go no we actually don't do that we actually go to their door and we actually get them and talk to their dad and go listen i'm gonna take i'll have her when we're coming home this is what we're gonna do this is what time i have her back i promise you ever back at this time but that is something something actually, to be fair, on both sides, that requires the dad of the girl to go set the standard high for what he wants, how he wants his daughter to be treated. And that requires the dad of the boy to go, this is how you date a woman. And this is how you

respect her. True. So can I just break this down to what I think? Sure. You need, first off, a young man who can talk to a girl. And by the way, they can get stressed out of their minds talking to girls. And I think we can help facilitate, encourage, you know, give advice to, to get them to do that. And we did a podcast on this, but you can work on talking to a female waitress who's 20 years older than you. You can talk to your sister's friends, like all really safe things. But being able to talk to someone, foregoing your urges and driving your energy towards a relationship with a girl is very positive. Yes.

Having a good disposition. So if you're funny, but you're lighthearted, and you like to laugh, and not be afraid to laugh at her and laugh at yourself and laugh at her jokes, all of that will make her like you more. Try to work hard at school and at your job. One, that's a great life skill, but also something that your young women will see as a positive, positive trait in your life. And I think if you do that, you should dress well. Like, and we're all, God gave us all certain looks and sizes and whatnot, but he didn't pick your clothes and he didn't groom you. So you can groom yourself well, and you can put on nice clothes. Make yourself as presentable and as attractive as possible and that goes for the girls too and

you can do a little workout make yourself a little stronger all those things together you're golden man you're gonna you're gonna get a gal giddy up i i love this um again i i want to encourage you to follow benjamin black i don't know him i just like his stuff i think he's got a great great feed i don't know i don't know what else benjamin so i'm not saying i have i've i've seen some of the stuff i think and i love the i love just what he says he says he's the founding father of three he's creating content and resources for you to forge a family legacy to outlive your grandkids um create your own modern dynasty.

dynasties, our own destinies, and all of us should be engaged in helping our kids become more marriageable, the girls and the boys, because that's how we're going to end up getting grandkids.
