Tristan Tate: What It Means To Be A Real Man In A World Full of Weak Men
Born on July the 15th, 1988 in Chicago, Illinois, as the second son of American father Emory Tate and British mother Eileen Tate, and he is also the middle child to older brother Andrew and younger sister Janine. His father would work minimum wage jobs overtime since his time at the military had ended and his mother would also work to make ends meet.
Tristan would spend his early years growing up in Chicago in a Christian household, before his parents would separate, which meant that Tristan would relocate to Luton, England with his mother, and two siblings.
He would move into a council estate, due to having financial difficulties as he was currently only being raised by a single mother. Relocating to Luton would mean that at the age of 9 years old, with older brother Andrew (who was 11 at the time), both Tristan and Andrew would have to step up in a big way to become the men of the house.
Tristan would discover the world of kickboxing alongside his brother Andrew in his teenage years, as they would train together in Luton, where they both joined Storm Gym and trained under their coach Amir Subasic. In 2007, he would begin kickboxing professionally, as he would gain recognition, climbing the ranks of kickboxing and would eventually become a 2x ISKA British Kickboxing Champion. He would dominate the Light Heavyweight Division winning with his kickboxing career spanning over the course of several years, winning 43 bouts and losing 9 in total. One of his most notable fights was when he came up against Martyn Flood for the ISKA British Title, as he won the fight via TKO claiming the ISKA British Title.
In 2011 he had his first glimpse of the limelight as he would star on UK reality TV show Shipwrecked, where he would play more of a masculine leadership role on the show.
After his success in kickboxing, Tristan would transition into the world of entrepreneurship, as both Tristan and Andrew would both retire from kickboxing as the sport didn’t really pay that much money, especially for the level they were fighting at. After this they would both move to Romania to venture into the world of business. Creating multiple web businesses with his brother Andrew, most notably they would initially make money by instructing webcam girls to generate revenue.
Post kickboxing he would also become a kickboxing commentator for a short amount of time, sell online courses, and create multiple online communities alongside his brother Andrew.
He admitted that in his early to mid 20’s he was an Atheist, but now he believes that “atheism is a cult of satan,” as he confessed on a video that he posted on Rumble, also stating that “the world needs God”. Which is true, as you see so many people being misled by false prophets in the modern world. Now Tristan has stated that he has reverted to Christianity, as he lives in Romania being surrounded by Orthodox Christians.
Having a tough upbringing, Tristan and his brother Andrew created philosophies based on their experiences in the real world, these teachings are aimed to guide young men to fulfill their potential, and to become the best men they can possibly become. As masculine role models the brothers preach tenets that men should follow, which include:
- Men should remain fit, because a healthy body is a healthy mind
- Men should work hard to achieve their goals
- Men should be as competent as possible
- Men have the sacred duty to protect and provide for their women and their families at all costs
- I believe that men and women are different and that each has their own unique and important strengths and abilities
- I believe that men have the sacred duty to raise strong, capable, and honourable sons
- Men have a duty to hold true to their word and do exactly what they say they will do
- I believe in the merits of healthy competition and encourage all men to seek out competition to improve themselves
Tristan and his brother Andrew are portrayed by the mainstream media, as they are often taken out of context to suit a narrative of being misogynistic to keep young men weak because of how they talk. From my understanding the reason the media want to keep young men weak is because they are easier to sell to and they won’t properly raise the next generation, also making them easy to profit off of.
Tristan Tate’s greatest legacy lies in the transformative impact he has had on countless young men. Through his mentorship programs, motivational content, and personal example, Tristan has inspired individuals to overcome obstacles, pursue their passions, and contribute positively to society.
The biggest issue you will find surrounding the Tate brothers is the blind trust that the majority of their audience has for them. Following them without being able to discern things for themselves. Do I think they are a force for good? Of course, in a world that lacks masculine leaders and role models, Tristan Tate sets a good example to follow religious principles, be a leader, and fill the masculine role that men are meant to fill.
