How important is it for men to learn to listen and respect women?
What do we mean for a boy or a man to learn how to listen and respect women? The answer to this very important question is simple? Communication is performed verbally and nonverbally between men, women, and children on a daily basis. When a boy is inside of the womb of its mother, communication has already been established. His mother is solely responsible for teaching him how to love, honor, cherish, and respect his mother and other women. As far as communication is concerned, this is done nonverbally at first with a child by the use of touch, looks and stares from the eyes of his mother as well as a mother's innate abilities when it comes to childrearing practices are concerned.
Next, communication is also done verbally through the use of communicating with him in her own native language. However, from a nonverbal perspective is concerned, when a mother looks at a child, the child himself responds by the looks and stares from his mother. Also, when a boy hears his name being called, he is also responsive to her native calls for attention. When a child is between the ages of 0 to 3 years, a method of touch is important. This is very important because it is a form of attachment and bond between mother and child. Touch is also important even in our adult lives because it allows humans to feel appreciated as a member of the human race. Touch is very important because it is the first initial response to a child's needs.
When a child cries, a parent has to see what is wrong with the child. Maybe, the child himself/herself has issues that need to be addressed. Touch is also therapeutic because it heals the body from infirmities and injuries. For instance, physical, mental, emotional, psychological, and psycho-social related injuries that can cause harm and permanent damages to people. This comes in the form of scarring that is extremely hard to heal; as long as there is a power that is greater than oneself to heal anyone from these social, emotional, mental, and psychological ills that people usually face on a regular basis.
From birth to 18 years, a boy learns how to respect his parents, sister, aunt, grandmother, as well as any other members of his family. Listening is very important!!!! When a boy learns how to listen to women, they respond by giving women respect for the person that she is as a member of the human race. Listening from a child's perspective comes from learning and training that he receives from his own mother. Learning how to say yes madam and no madam to her is respect for one's mother and elders as a whole if they are mature women. There are times when a child's father is completely absent in his life. This adjustment for a child becomes extremely difficult. This is simply because a biological father is supposed to validate a child's existence!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
For example, my biological father was never around so, I had to rely on my grandfather as well as caretakers that I had perceived as positive until I had found out otherwise!!!! There are times when the people who are deemed as stepfathers and those who are classified as being involved in a child's mother's life are not positive role models themselves. They are classified as replacements!!!! A replacement is just someone who is just taking up space inside of a household. This is classified as matter. The definition of matter is anything that takes up space!!! This is a scientific definition and it applies to everyday life.
A male child also learns how to respect his female siblings by calling her by her first name and respecting her as a person. Remember, a boy's mother, sister, aunt, and grandmother are members of the immediate family; as well as members of the human race. As far as a boy becoming a man is concerned, he also has to learn how to demonstrate good communication skills as well as learning how to talk and listen to women. In most cases, there are times that boys do not demonstrate these skills when it comes to learning how to communicate with women and girls.
Moreover, let's look at how men learn how to listen to women. First, they must learn how to understand her for the person that she is on a personal basis. This is done by listening and communicating with her regarding her personal needs. There are times when men and boys come from dysfunctional families and this itself becomes difficult. For example, if a boy observes his parents arguing and fighting on a regular basis; this learning process becomes disrupted. This is because there is stagnation and problems with the parents that cause this disruption to take place. There are also times when other children and men who are involved in a child's life that interfere in this process.
Single parent mothers for instance, tend to have a very difficult time making the adjustment as far as becoming a mature parent.
