Blake R. Templeton argues that men who stay silent to avoid conflict actually lose authority and let problems grow. Speaking up early and calmly, what he calls speaking "truth in love," resolves issues faster than silence ever will.
We had the guy who's passive, emasculated, and a man who avoids tension loses in authority. Like, silence is not peace, it's delayed conflict. He's trying to actually not have conflict, trying to be a people pleaser. But instead of disappearing, going silent, or calling it keeping the peace, address it early, calmly, and directly, speaking truth in love.
