That they're predicting that 50% of women in childbearing years,
00:00:05.160
so basically between the ages of like 25 and 45,
00:00:09.120
so much so that there's big companies investing in things like wine, cat food.
00:00:14.500
I've invested in egg freezing because that's going to become more of a thing as well.
00:00:20.200
What does that say about the state of modern women today?
00:00:32.460
Cambridge is actually, I think I've listened to LBC,
00:00:36.480
and Cambridge is starting to do courses on fertility for women
00:00:38.860
because they believe that girls aren't taught young enough about their bodies.
00:00:43.460
So they're taught, chase your career, chase this and chase that,
00:00:46.040
but they're not taught, okay, you actually have a biological clock.
00:00:48.760
So they're actually looking to teach girls in secondary school,
00:00:51.640
okay, by this age, this is the amount of eggs that disappear, et cetera, et cetera.
00:00:59.500
people argue about conspiracy theories, about overpopulation and stuff like that.
00:01:04.740
But in the U.S. and most countries in Europe, people are actually dying out.
00:01:17.480
so that's why we believe the overpopulation nonsense, but it's really not a thing.
00:01:21.360
Yeah, 20% of cities hold 80% of the population.
00:01:23.520
I think you need to have 2.5 babies per society or culture to maintain a culture.
00:01:36.740
I was an economics major, really good for an economy because it's like cheap labor.
00:01:43.620
But even in places like Singapore, they promote sex.
00:01:46.080
So they have like parks and stuff, which is made to make people feel like they want to have sex.
00:01:52.920
They're promoting sex, but are they promoting marriage?
00:01:56.960
Traditionally, aren't you meant to get married first and then...
00:02:00.520
Well, you're right, but I just think with birth control, like women don't really want to be wives anymore in general.
00:02:11.520
True, but I think there's like they get access to guys they would never get access to in the past.
00:02:17.420
And anything below that, they feel like they're settling.
00:02:20.100
So I think a lot of women will take side chick over being a wife.
00:02:26.080
Do you think they should stop providing free birth control?
00:02:46.740
In a sense, you think if people were not on contact decisions a lot more wisely,
00:02:52.100
because now you've got something that you could just do whatever you want,
00:03:00.460
You know, you always think about people that get...
00:03:04.980
People that get great and stuff and all of that kind of stuff and essays and all of that kind of stuff.
00:03:12.360
Do you not think instead of not having access to it,
00:03:15.480
do you not think there should be maybe a stricter process?
00:03:20.280
It would be like 100% banished in Pearl's world.
00:03:22.940
I don't banish it because it affects the men as well.
00:03:27.620
Well, I mean, I don't think you make laws based on less than 1% of pregnancies.
00:03:32.300
I think you make laws based on the rule, not the exception.
00:03:40.460
Like, if you look at the divorce rate in society,
00:03:42.360
it's literally pinpointed by the same rate that women were on birth control.
00:03:53.540
And the other, like, misconception is a lot of people think, like,
00:03:55.980
abortions would go through the roof or whatever if there was no birth control.
00:03:59.500
But actually, abortions increased after birth control didn't decrease.
00:04:02.640
And 40% of women that have had an abortion have had two or more.
00:04:06.420
I think that makes sense because people don't take accountability for their actions.
00:04:11.660
And so, like, birth control takes away the consequence for women.
00:04:14.360
I mean, how much more careful would women be with who they slept with
00:04:22.960
when you've had, like, more sexual experiences?
00:04:27.620
I don't think sex has anything to do with a good relationship for us women.
00:04:39.560
But a relationship and a sexual experience are two different things.
00:04:44.540
and a relationship is more long-term, like, there's commitment, you know?
00:04:47.500
Why I ask that question is because most girls want to sleep
00:04:49.780
with multiple partners is because some men are just shit in bed.
00:04:54.360
Yeah, but how would you know if you're a virgin?
00:05:02.140
You know, you can look stuff up on the internet.
00:05:20.820
Yeah, I think what everyone deems as good sex is...
00:05:24.380
oh, when you have sex with someone the first time,
00:05:28.820
But as you get to know each other's body, it becomes better.
00:05:31.440
So then I don't think you need to be exposed so much.
00:05:35.580
You just have to understand each other and have that connection.
00:05:37.960
So don't you think it's better to do that with one person
00:05:44.420
I don't think you need to sleep with many people.
00:05:47.460
And in terms of, like, a sexual connection as well,
00:05:49.400
like, you could have sex with someone who's amazing in bed
00:05:51.640
and maybe he's not treating you as good as someone else
00:06:15.320
I think that's a couple of women who's in with.
