Transcript

00:00:00.000 So women, education, jobs, we had your friend Nick Fuentes on, right?
00:00:05.900 And he was adamant women should not go to college, period.
00:00:10.700 They should not go to college, with maybe the exception of certain people
00:00:13.980 that are going into STEM, medicine, law, but he's basically an advocate for that.
00:00:17.980 You went to college, but what do you think?
00:00:19.720 Should women go to college?
00:00:22.720 I mean, it didn't really help me with much.
00:00:24.740 I played sports, so I really enjoyed college sports.
00:00:27.760 But, no, I mean, it didn't help me in the workforce.
00:00:32.860 It didn't really do much for me, I would say.
00:00:34.920 And I studied economics.
00:00:36.220 I actually had a real degree.
00:00:37.640 So I guess the conversation I'm looking for is college overall has become watered down.
00:00:44.020 It's become sort of pointless to many extent.
00:00:47.900 College debt is out of control.
00:00:50.160 It doesn't offer as much value as it used to offer.
00:00:53.040 You're not necessarily unique if you go to the four-year university and you graduate.
00:00:56.780 Hey, I'm college.
00:00:57.580 You're not guaranteed a job.
00:00:59.360 But should women specifically not go to college?
00:01:03.360 I would say most women shouldn't.
00:01:06.200 What women would?
00:01:07.580 What women would you suggest to go?
00:01:13.240 Engineering is probably a good degree.
00:01:15.280 I don't think most women want to do it.
00:01:16.860 This is the STEM field that I was talking about.
00:01:19.740 The chicks don't want to be engineers, you know.
00:01:21.860 Got it.
00:01:23.120 What about work?
00:01:24.500 Should women go back to the pre-1950s and just stay at home, cook, clean, mother, raise the kids, not go to the workforce?
00:01:33.340 It's so interesting when you look at history.
00:01:38.500 It's actually hilarious.
00:01:40.240 I think it's so funny when I hear these chicks talk about, oh, I miss the days when we just got to stay home and not work.
00:01:46.700 It's like, bitch, what do you think the 1800s were like?
00:01:49.860 Do you think your life was easier when you were working on a farm?
00:01:52.640 So, you know, I think that women should listen to their husbands.
00:01:58.820 You know, I know women that do work and they work for their husbands.
00:02:03.100 I think it depends on every family's financial situation.
00:02:06.640 But I think it's better if the women can stay home.
00:02:09.700 Not every family can afford to do that, you know.
00:02:12.380 Well, look, I can kind of agree with you on the whole listening to the husband thing.
00:02:16.060 But that's not the point.
00:02:16.820 What happens before they have a husband, though?
00:02:19.300 I mean, you have to eat.
00:02:21.260 So what should they do for money?
00:02:22.780 If they don't work or go to college or anything like that.
00:02:25.040 Like, walk me through the logic like, yeah, college is useless.
00:02:27.940 Don't do it.
00:02:29.040 But you still need to work.
00:02:30.440 But maybe you're 22 years old.
00:02:32.480 You're not ready to get married.
00:02:34.000 Is she smart or stupid?
00:02:35.440 Well, what are most women?
00:02:36.860 Well, okay.
00:02:39.060 Well, if I was going to tell, like, a 22-year-old, I mean, I would get a job where you would want to meet your husband.
00:02:46.400 That's what I would say.
00:02:47.140 So if you want to date a doctor, you know, you work as an assistant at, like, a medical clinic.
00:02:52.600 So you should go to work.
00:02:54.320 I mean, I'm not saying you should.
00:02:55.400 I would say it really depends on the person.
00:02:57.380 So I'm not really into, like, broad advice.
00:03:00.800 No, but this is important because I have a lot of conversations with women about this.
00:03:04.380 Because I actually have a very unique perspective on this, Pearl.
00:03:07.720 Because, you know, in my old age of 40 plus, 42, I see women that have focused on their career so much, right?
00:03:16.360 And have done all the high body count, travel, living it up.
00:03:19.560 But beautiful women who are now 38, 40, 42, 44, still single.
00:03:25.000 And my advice to them is, yeah, you probably should have prioritized a man, marriage, if that's what you want, which many women do, right?
00:03:34.120 But at the same time, I also give that advice to a 22-year-old.
00:03:38.400 And what's their first thing they say?
00:03:40.460 I don't want to get married right now.
00:03:41.960 I want to live my life.
00:03:42.880 I want to do these things.
00:03:44.200 So how do you give this knowledge to a young 22-year-old girl who's like, what are you telling?
00:03:49.320 My mom told me I should not rely on a man.
00:03:52.420 I need to make my own money.
00:03:53.500 I need to get a degree.
00:03:54.780 I don't care what you say, Pearl.
00:03:56.280 I'm listening to my mom.
00:03:57.440 I'm not trying to get married at 22 years old.
00:04:00.220 And if you were having that conversation, what you do with plenty of women, how would you basically get on their level to basically see what you're saying?
00:04:07.440 Oh, I don't.
00:04:08.340 I say, if you want to do that, go do it.
00:04:09.820 Have fun.
00:04:10.820 Okay.
00:04:11.260 Like, I'm not.
00:04:12.960 Yeah.
00:04:13.480 Do you warn them of what the future would look like?
00:04:15.520 Well, yeah.
00:04:16.120 I mean, I can go through the antidepressant stats, like the women over the age of 45 that are on antidepressants.
00:04:22.140 You can go through the single childless women statistics.
00:04:25.520 But, you know, I'm not in the business of forcing people to live one way or another.
00:04:30.900 Got it.
00:04:31.000 But, you know, I can't really.
00:04:32.540 You're speaking more generalities.
00:04:33.840 I can't really, like, put a gun to her head.
00:04:36.780 Well, let's have some fun.
00:04:38.180 Let's put a gun.
00:04:39.200 Okay.
00:04:40.100 To Natalia's head.
00:04:41.980 Natalia is 26 years old.
00:04:44.960 Okay.
00:04:45.440 She's an attractive girl.
00:04:47.220 Okay.
00:04:47.640 You guys are similar age.
00:04:49.260 She went to college.
00:04:51.020 She comes from a good family.
00:04:52.540 She works.
00:04:54.880 She works at Valuetainment.
00:04:56.440 She's moving up.
00:04:58.060 For someone like her, specifically, you know, if you could, if Dr. Pearl put on her medical hat, what would you tell Nat?
00:05:07.900 Well, what outcome do you want?
00:05:11.700 This is a place that I'm going to find my career, and I probably will meet somebody along the way.
00:05:17.200 And I probably have met someone.
00:05:19.220 So, but yeah.
00:05:19.860 Okay.
00:05:20.500 She seems, yeah, she's good.
00:05:22.540 That's it?
00:05:22.880 That's how this works?
00:05:23.660 That just Nat whispers an answer, and you agree with it?
00:05:26.360 Yeah, sure.
00:05:27.460 That did not sound convincing by either of you right now.
00:05:30.020 Now the men are fighting with the women.
00:05:31.560 So, Nat, what are you solving for?
00:05:33.760 I mean, long term, this is a company that I want to build.
00:05:36.460 You know, it's a company of opportunity.
00:05:38.060 And I know along the way, there'll be a lot of people I will meet, and I will probably find who I'm looking for along the way.
00:05:45.520 So, I am working for it.
00:05:47.220 So, I think this is important, because you, you know, some people say, you know, this isn't advice, but it kind of is, but it's, you know, kind of, I don't know.
00:05:56.380 But at the end of the day, we're all kind of giving opinions, which could be perceived as advice.
00:05:59.980 If you met a guy that you really liked, would you prioritize that?
00:06:04.340 Yeah, that would have to be my priority.
00:06:06.400 That's going to be my next chapter in my personal life.
00:06:08.380 So, that's an area that I do have to give time and attention.
00:06:12.540 Okay.
00:06:12.940 So, knowing female nature, you're a woman, you know female nature.
00:06:16.940 What age do you think most women even start thinking about actually settling down, having kids, getting married, all that stuff?
00:06:24.020 I would say after 25 in modern day.
00:06:26.680 Yeah.
00:06:27.020 I think that's fair.
00:06:27.820 I think that's fair.
00:06:28.720 I see a lot of women that get the 30 itch, and then, oh, I got, so, but prior to 25, you know, how are they eating?
00:06:37.600 How are they living?
00:06:38.300 How are they making money?
00:06:39.420 Oh, what I would say, I would just say, be a virgin, young chicas, be a virgin and get married.
00:06:44.960 That's what I would say.
00:06:46.180 I would say that's the best option.
00:06:47.980 If we want to look at, you know, if your goal is family and children, that is the best option for you.
00:06:54.220 Gotcha.
00:06:54.580 How would you suggest a woman would court, or how would you suggest a woman get experience?
00:06:59.800 I'm not saying sleeping around, because I'm not condoning sleeping around, but how would you suggest a woman like that, you know, she's been home, to be able to identify this as a man that is going to...
00:07:10.840 Oh, God, women can't identify.
00:07:12.240 We're terrible at it.
00:07:13.080 So then that's my point.
00:07:14.080 It's got to be the dads.
00:07:14.300 So what suggestion would you have to those women that stay at home?
00:07:16.840 Well, I think, like, traditionally, it used to be that the dads would help you.
00:07:21.180 Okay.
00:07:21.360 And so the dads would say, these are, like, five guys in town.
00:07:24.000 I think this would be the ideal.
00:07:25.580 All right, so you got a daughter, right, let's just say.
00:07:28.180 Okay.
00:07:28.380 And you say, these five guys, they're everything that I think would be good in a husband.
00:07:34.380 Daughter, pick one.
00:07:35.540 Boom.
00:07:35.880 There you go.
00:07:36.460 So kind of like the Indian culture, where they kind of give the marriage.
00:07:40.540 Yeah.
00:07:40.900 They do that in Indian culture, too.
00:07:42.480 So I do want to talk about women and the body positivity.
00:07:46.540 We touched on some of the stuff.
00:07:48.440 Looks, marriage.
00:07:50.000 You just brought up virgins.
00:07:51.480 Yeah.
00:07:52.100 Yeah.
00:07:52.240 This is something that I find fascinating, this conversation about virgin brides.
00:07:58.300 Yes.
00:07:58.760 Right?
00:07:59.380 One of my favorite movies of all time is The Princess Bride.
00:08:03.640 And this whole concept of virginity.
00:08:06.440 And, look, you know, in high school and college, maybe I took one or two, right?
00:08:11.220 But at this phase in my life, the last thing I'm looking for, for me, is a virgin, because
00:08:15.940 I'm a little bit older, right?
00:08:17.120 But I understand that concept.
00:08:18.880 Would you consider yourself a traditional guy?
00:08:22.240 I'm, in many respects, yes, but maybe not in certain categories.
00:08:27.420 Are you, like, looking to get married the next couple years?
00:08:29.860 I'm looking to have kids and a girl, for sure.
00:08:32.280 Okay, but...
00:08:33.120 Traditional marriage, as far as the government getting involved in my life, you know, I don't
00:08:37.500 know if you know, I was married.
00:08:39.120 You were married?
00:08:39.900 Yeah.
00:08:40.140 Oh, my God.
00:08:40.440 I had no idea.
00:08:41.160 So you go.
00:08:41.880 Well, at the end, you're going to flip it on me, have this conversation.
00:08:45.380 But, yeah, I do.
00:08:46.080 I would say that, how about this?
00:08:48.360 Because I've been pretty traditional, but I'm becoming more traditional, evolving, as
00:08:53.480 we kind of discussed.
00:08:54.740 Would you say you're traditional?
00:08:56.240 No.
00:08:56.820 You're not?
00:08:57.440 No, I wish I was, but no.
00:09:00.400 How so?
00:09:01.200 Well, when I think of, like, a traditional woman, I think of a woman that, like, I don't
00:09:05.740 know, I was an athlete growing up.
00:09:07.200 Okay.
00:09:07.440 So I was, like, I spent, like, four hours a day in the gym.
00:09:10.880 I don't think that's, like, a traditional...
00:09:13.360 All right.
00:09:13.740 So you played sports.
00:09:14.640 I don't think that...
00:09:15.220 I mean, in modern society, a lot of girls play sports.
00:09:17.500 How else are you not traditional, but you would love to be traditional?
00:09:20.520 Well, that's the main thing.
00:09:22.380 That just you're an athlete?
00:09:23.220 Well, I think traditional women get married before the age of 25, so...
00:09:26.660 Okay.
00:09:27.720 So, but the virginity thing.
00:09:30.900 Yeah, I think...
00:09:31.640 Yeah, I also think that that's part of it.
00:09:33.780 Traditional women, they're virgins.
00:09:35.480 They wait till they're married.
00:09:37.480 They're typically, like, raised...
00:09:41.020 Like, they're more raised...
00:09:43.520 Like, I just don't see athletes, like, female athletics, as being, like, the epitome of
00:09:47.640 traditionalism.
00:09:48.380 And you've already answered this.
00:09:49.640 You've said you're not a virgin.
00:09:51.540 Right?
00:09:52.120 Not again.
00:09:52.620 Okay.
00:09:53.020 No, I mean, it's not, like, breaking news.
00:09:55.420 Yeah, yeah, yeah.
00:09:55.800 Okay.
00:09:56.220 You're not married.
00:09:57.120 This is not breaking news.
00:09:58.240 I get it.
00:09:58.680 You've said you're not traditional, but you wish you were.
00:10:01.500 Yeah.
00:10:01.920 But you're also saying, hey, women, go be traditional.
00:10:04.500 Yeah.
00:10:04.700 You're also like, look, I'm not really traditional, but this is what I would recommend for you.
00:10:09.160 Right?
00:10:09.560 But when it comes to virginity thing, it's actually pretty fascinating to me, because I have some
00:10:13.260 stats.
00:10:14.140 Malik, pull that up in a second.
00:10:15.180 You said the ideal marriage of two virgins is getting married and staying married for a
00:10:19.860 lifetime is good.
00:10:20.740 You've said that, right?
00:10:22.160 Non-virgin women cause all of the world's problems.
00:10:24.500 Oh, yes.
00:10:24.900 Interesting.
00:10:25.420 Yes.
00:10:25.760 Okay.
00:10:26.480 So, you know, in the West, specifically, the concept of virgin brides, in my opinion,
00:10:32.360 is so far-fetched today.
00:10:34.080 It's done.
00:10:34.100 Yeah, 4%.
00:10:34.880 I think it's like 3% or 4%.
00:10:36.120 Yeah, yeah.
00:10:36.940 So, I want to pull up these stats.
00:10:39.120 How can we go back in time and recreate this traditional virgin lifestyle?
00:10:47.520 And, like, how much does this actually weigh on your mind?
00:10:50.220 Like, oh, I'm not a virgin.
00:10:51.280 I wish I was.
00:10:52.300 Like, I don't know.
00:10:53.500 What could I have done differently?
00:10:54.160 A lot more since every show I go on, they bring it up.
00:10:56.820 Right.
00:10:57.160 Well, why do we bring it up, bro?
00:10:58.860 Because you talk about it.
00:10:59.820 It's all I think about this.
00:11:00.860 Because, because, because.
00:11:01.340 But here, before you answer, look at these stats.
00:11:03.200 Look at these stats real quick.
00:11:04.460 So, punch in a little bit.
00:11:07.100 So, in the 1970s, all you have to do is look at the top number.
00:11:11.300 Okay?
00:11:11.860 So, in the 1970s, this is, when you get married, 21% of women were virgins.
00:11:19.800 Okay?
00:11:20.100 By 1980s, it was 17.
00:11:23.380 1990s, it's 14.
00:11:25.160 2000s, it's 12.
00:11:26.240 By 2010s, specifically when social media hits the scene, it plummets down to 5%.
00:11:33.480 You said now it's closer to 3%.
00:11:35.860 So, is this, can we put the toothpaste back in the tube, or are we doomed?
00:11:40.560 You know what's crazy?
00:11:41.420 If you look up 1920s, the first sexual revolution was actually in the 20s.
00:11:45.500 Yeah, women's suffrage, everything that goes along with that.
00:11:47.500 Yeah, yeah, yeah.
00:11:47.520 And so, it was actually like 85% in the early 1900s.
00:11:51.380 So, think about how far that's fallen in 100 years.
00:11:53.720 No, we are in full agreement with this.
00:11:55.420 Yeah, yeah, yeah.
00:11:55.580 We are in full agreement.
00:11:56.620 I'm not, like, these are, these are stats.
00:11:58.160 Yeah.
00:11:58.260 This is not zero opinion.
00:11:59.600 Yeah.
00:11:59.640 But, you know, the concept of Virgin Bride, are we just too far gone that it's, like,
00:12:05.240 we're not, these numbers are trending that way.
00:12:07.680 How do you envision it going from 3% back to 5%, back to 10%, back to 20%?
00:12:13.140 It won't.
00:12:14.020 It just won't?
00:12:15.080 It won't, no.
00:12:17.060 I don't see it going back, unfortunately.
00:12:19.180 If you can kind of put things in place to make it go back in place, what things would you put in place to influence more of that?
00:12:28.580 Chastity belts.
00:12:29.540 Well, I would say women respond very quickly to social shame.
00:12:33.820 When something is socially shamed as a society, that is typically when you see women make changes.
00:12:41.840 For example, and I don't know, you guys have to see this on the show.
00:12:45.880 You just hear women repeat back the same things that they've heard, like, in the media.
00:12:50.780 I've heard about Kim Kardashian getting married so many, like, so, really, I think the only way to swing it back is the culture and through social shame.
00:13:00.840 But I don't really see that happening, so.
00:13:02.700 Yeah, I don't know.
00:13:03.820 No, but that's my point.
00:13:04.720 So, when you guys ask me, you're like, well, what would you tell a 22-year-old chick?
00:13:08.220 Like, it's like, well, I can give them this advice, but I'm not stupid.
00:13:11.800 Like, I know the culture.
00:13:13.240 Right, but it's good to give also input back.
00:13:15.180 But I don't know, like, if you had a daughter, like, are you going to tell them it's better to have multiple partners or zero partners?
00:13:22.020 Or, like, one partner for life?
00:13:23.560 I mean, Adam knows where I stand.
00:13:24.700 I say, be a virgin.
00:13:26.000 Yeah, exactly.
00:13:27.060 That's just me, but it's just, the only reason also why is because, to me, it's like you can't handle a level of discipline.
00:13:33.740 And you can't handle a level of, like, keeping something that's private, private, you know?
00:13:38.780 Like, being able to be tempted with something like that, I think that's a level of discipline that's very hard for people to have.
00:13:45.760 So, you value it.
00:13:47.080 Yeah.
00:13:47.360 And so, for me, I'm with, I'm not, like, going to argue.
00:13:50.540 Like, go sleep around, because that's not what I provide.
00:13:52.320 Well, and I know chicks that have done it.
00:13:54.180 Like, I genuinely know chicks that have waited.
00:13:55.800 That have done what?
00:13:56.640 That have waited until they were married.
00:13:57.920 I know a couple.
00:13:58.700 You know, like, one.
00:13:59.380 No, I know, I can think of three off the top of my head.
00:14:02.900 I could probably think of more.
00:14:03.920 That's the three percent.
00:14:05.240 Yeah, yeah, yeah.
00:14:05.920 Not bad.
00:14:06.360 No, no, it's rare.
00:14:07.560 It's totally rare.
00:14:08.640 But when I look at their outcomes for life, I'm like, well, like, they're probably the happiest married people I know, like, under the age of 40.
00:14:17.020 There are stats that show that the less body count you have, the longer the marriage lasts.
00:14:22.260 It's just, again, very far-fetched in society.
00:14:24.720 What do you think about the girls, we've had this on the show a bunch of times, who are born-again virgins?
00:14:29.920 Would you ever consider yourself a born-again virgin, or are you living in reality?
00:14:33.200 I'm going to start saying that on the show, as I swear to God.
00:14:36.360 No, no, no.
00:14:37.760 No, I don't think you can re-become a virgin.
00:14:40.940 I don't know why they say that.
00:14:41.620 Okay, yeah, I ask that all the time.
00:14:43.820 They're like, yeah, I'm a virgin now.
00:14:45.140 It's like, really?
00:14:45.700 How does that work?
00:14:46.300 Yeah, I mean, I think those chicks, you're going to kind of have a hard time selling a guy on that.
00:14:52.340 Like, yeah, they got it for free, but you, sir, need to marry me first.
00:14:57.360 Or they're practicing abstinence now.
00:14:59.420 I mean, you might get a taker.
00:15:01.540 I just think that's a hard sell.
00:15:03.560 But you also talked about the social shame.
00:15:05.520 You've got to shame them into agreeing.
00:15:07.680 Well, I think we could start by not rewarding it.
00:15:10.400 I think that's step one.
00:15:11.700 Maybe no money, no OnlyFans.
00:15:14.600 Maybe the guys come in, stop marrying the Kim Kardashian, stop giving these women commitment, neon.
00:15:20.420 You know, men used to, like, shame other simps.
00:15:23.460 You know, Dylan Danis is really doing a service to the men throughout this country.
00:15:28.400 But, you know, it's interesting because you talk about the free markets and capitalism.
00:15:32.720 I would say the onus is on the men, the simps, the guys who are paying these women.
00:15:37.960 Because if guys stopped paying the OnlyFans and the sex workers and the strippers, what have you, then they would stop doing it.
00:15:44.360 But there's a major market for that.
00:15:46.000 So they keep doing it.
00:15:46.980 So at what level does the men have accountability for rewarding these women?
00:15:50.280 Do you have the same energy for drug dealers?
00:15:52.640 Do I have the same energy for drug dealers?
00:15:54.700 Yeah, so if a guy deals drugs, is it the crack addict's fault?
00:15:58.380 Or is it the drug dealer's fault?
00:16:00.240 I think addiction is a lot different for being addicted to drugs than being like, yeah, I just want to see some ass.
00:16:07.280 Why do we have empathy for drug addiction but not sex addiction?
00:16:13.040 You know, there are studies that say that sex is a need for men.
00:16:16.320 So when you have one out of three men that are either virgins or haven't had sex in the past year, it's like, it's on the internet.
00:16:21.620 They're going to go somewhere.
00:16:23.240 Now, I don't believe in porn.
00:16:24.860 If this was Pearl's World, I would just ban it all.
00:16:26.980 I would just be like, that's banned.
00:16:28.420 That's banned.
00:16:28.940 But it's interesting how when women make a poor decision, we find a way to blame it on the men.
00:16:33.780 But when men make a poor decision, we blame it on them.
00:16:38.180 So interesting analogy with the drug dealers.
00:16:41.560 But at the end of the day, it comes with choice.
00:16:43.280 But like you said, you would ban it.
00:16:45.600 Banning is a slippery slope.
00:16:47.100 You know this on your social media accounts.
00:16:48.880 You know this that you don't want to be banned.
00:16:50.460 So why can you ban speech but not ban activities or ban what people want to do?
00:16:57.380 We saw what happened with Prohibition.
00:16:59.400 Tried to ban it.
00:17:00.960 It was reckless.
00:17:02.580 You try to ban people making decisions with their own bodily autonomy.
00:17:07.780 People will react to it.
00:17:09.100 How could you ban something that the market wants?
00:17:11.920 How would that work?
00:17:12.520 Well, I mean, people are still going to do it illegally, of course.
00:17:15.560 But I don't really want to live in a world like Amsterdam where you can go down the street and get a hooker.
00:17:21.080 And that's really like, you know, have you seen that where the women are like in the front?
00:17:24.460 I've been to the red light district.
00:17:25.780 Yeah.
00:17:26.200 Yeah.
00:17:26.700 And so it's like, do you really want to be in a society that is so accepting that we accept that?
00:17:33.220 I would argue.
00:17:34.300 I don't think the argument should be, well, someone's going to buy it.
00:17:37.620 We should just make it legal.
00:17:38.960 I don't really.
00:17:39.820 But there's levels to that.
00:17:40.720 And you have a point.
00:17:42.160 I get it.
00:17:42.780 Because, you know, there is some validity there.
00:17:45.220 But you're also saying that there's some sort of equivalency to a crackhead to a dude who wants to go to a strip club.
00:17:53.520 I would say that there's nuance to this.
00:17:55.820 There are sex addicts.
00:17:57.100 There are porn addicts.
00:17:58.360 And there's some guys that just kind of want to have a fun night on a Saturday night.
00:18:02.240 Just like with drugs.
00:18:03.320 There's crack addicts and some guys that want to smoke a joint.
00:18:05.680 I'll tell you what we could make an equivalency to.
00:18:08.360 The one out of three very, very lonely men in this country.
00:18:11.780 A lot of these men still do jobs that run the infrastructure in society.
00:18:16.240 I mean, you heard Andrew Tate talk about when he did the cam business.
00:18:19.880 Men would send their life savings.
00:18:21.640 You don't think that's a form of addiction?
00:18:25.140 A form of loneliness?
00:18:26.280 Like, we can't have empathy for that?
00:18:27.340 Yeah, but whose fault is that?
00:18:29.500 Everyone's choices in life is their own fault.
00:18:31.440 But my point is when we were talking about the sex workers, you immediately blame the customers.
00:18:36.180 And whenever women make a bad decision, we have a tendency to blame the men.
00:18:40.020 That was my point.
00:18:40.680 I'm not even blaming.
00:18:41.640 I'm just saying that it's a free market.
00:18:43.660 So as an example, those one-third of men, we've seen that stat.
00:18:46.160 One-third of men are virgins.
00:18:47.400 I ask myself, well, why are they virgins?
00:18:50.140 All right, maybe they're young.
00:18:52.620 Maybe they have no game.
00:18:53.960 Maybe they don't have any respect from women because they don't deserve respect.
00:18:56.860 They're broke.
00:18:57.840 They're fat.
00:18:58.500 They're sloppy.
00:18:59.200 They're losers.
00:18:59.840 They play video games.
00:19:00.900 They have no game.
00:19:01.980 They have no skill set.
00:19:03.400 You know what, homie?
00:19:04.420 Hector, maybe you should be a virgin until you improve your life.
00:19:08.840 But that's a small percentage of men.
00:19:11.380 That's like if you break down the numbers, that's not the majority.
00:19:14.140 I mean, overweight, sure, but everyone's fat.
00:19:16.420 You know, that's not like a men or women thing.
00:19:18.600 But I don't feel bad for those guys.
00:19:19.900 But again, you feel bad for those guys?
00:19:22.660 Who I feel bad for is the, there's two groups of men that I have a lot of empathy for.
00:19:27.820 One is the average men that do not get respect in this country.
00:19:31.000 Again, 45% of men, almost one out of two men, do a job that makes the country run.
00:19:36.400 And a lot of times, especially in the influencer space, I see this a ton, where we shit on the
00:19:41.300 average men that make this country run.
00:19:43.480 None of us could do what we do without them.
00:19:45.460 The second group of men that I have a lot of empathy for are the traditional men that do the right thing and get married.
00:19:53.520 And they typically have average jobs, work the same job for 20 years, and then come home one day to a woman that has taken half of their assets.
00:20:01.420 And I've been on the other side of that, and I've interviewed these guys.
00:20:04.240 I have a ton of empathy for them because they have no idea what they are signing up for.
00:20:08.640 Yeah, no, men definitely need to be forewarned of sort of the pitfalls of marriage.
00:20:14.820 But I'll say this, I'm almost taking like a different angle than you, but I am a man.
00:20:18.720 I consult with men, I coach men.
00:20:22.100 I'm one of those dudes that actually want men and women to win.
00:20:26.280 I'm not that person that's like, men win, women lose, women win, men lose.
00:20:30.260 No, I think we can all win.
00:20:31.540 But when men...
00:20:31.880 Come on, hear me out.
00:20:33.220 Those men, from a macro standpoint, from an economic standpoint, you're absolutely right.
00:20:39.300 The millions of truck drivers, okay, the millions of guys that work with their hands, the millions of plumbers, from a macro standpoint, you're absolutely right.
00:20:49.660 But from a micro standpoint, are you basically saying that I have to respect Carl, the truck driver, just because he drives a truck?
00:20:58.160 What else is he doing with his life?
00:21:00.140 Is he a good person?
00:21:01.100 Is he contributing to society?
00:21:03.680 Is he raising his kids?
00:21:05.900 Is he actually active in his community?
00:21:08.880 Is he practicing philanthropy?
00:21:11.780 But just because he drives a truck, I don't think he deserves respect.
00:21:16.300 I think from a macro standpoint, I respect what the men do, but I don't think I really need to respect Carl because he drives eight hours in a truck every day.
00:21:24.180 So it's very nuanced.
00:21:24.780 I think it's a pretty privileged position to be in, honestly, because the average men allow you to do what you do and live how you live.
00:21:33.020 So I think you should treat the people that help you get to where you are with a lot of respect, yes.
00:21:38.200 Okay.
00:21:38.460 Simply for having those jobs.
00:21:40.860 Just because they have a job, they deserve respect?
00:21:42.840 I think that you should respect, I'll give you an example, Uber drivers.
00:21:47.520 I couldn't get anywhere without my Uber drivers.
00:21:49.940 Now, it's a normal job, right?
00:21:51.640 It doesn't, you know, it's not like a necessarily hard job to do.
00:21:55.160 But, yes, I think the average men in this country that work normal nine to fives deserve respect.
00:22:01.520 So, you know, Elon Musk has a quote that you are paid in the proportion to the problem that you solve.
00:22:08.540 You get paid by delivering value.
00:22:11.100 So as an example, I work, and I'm not doing this, in the financial markets, okay?
00:22:15.260 I'm a financial wholesaler for a very niche product.
00:22:18.020 And I'm, my company, myself, are the best in the world at this one thing called life settlements.
00:22:23.180 We're the best of the best of the best, and we are highly compensated for it.
00:22:27.340 That's how I made my money.
00:22:28.300 That's how I met PPD in the financial world.
00:22:30.260 But very few people can do it, and that's why we're paid a lot.
00:22:33.760 But anybody can drive Uber, Uber.
00:22:38.020 Anyone can clean a studio, be a janitor.
00:22:42.560 So the lower level of a job, the less problems you're solving, the less you'll be paid.
00:22:49.740 So, you know, how many YouTubers are out there?
00:22:53.180 Okay?
00:22:53.840 There's tens of millions.
00:22:56.000 How many YouTubers have more than 100,000 subs?
00:22:59.380 2%?
00:23:00.180 How many have more than a million subs like Pearl?
00:23:03.520 Less than 1%?
00:23:05.260 So it'd be like saying, just because you're a YouTuber, you deserve respect.
00:23:10.700 It's like, no, respect is earned, not given.
00:23:13.440 And it's, you need to establish some credibility and competence in order to get that respect.
00:23:19.780 So if you own the trucking company, it's like, all right, that guy built the company and hired all the guys, respect.
00:23:25.740 But the guy on his first day of a job just because he drives a truck, I'm not like, oh my God, respect.
00:23:29.620 So do you not respect the employees that work for you unless they work their way up and own the company?
00:23:34.520 I respect the hell out of them.
00:23:35.980 But that's the point.
00:23:37.080 Like, I think that you should respect the people that allow you to do what you do.
00:23:41.640 And so you have it here, and I'm also talking about in society as well.
00:23:46.820 So, you know, the Uber drivers allow you to get from point A to point B.
00:23:50.880 Yes, I think they deserve it.
00:23:52.480 We're saying the same thing.
00:23:53.920 These guys are respect.
00:23:54.840 We just have a different.
00:23:55.420 So you ever given an Uber driver a five star?
00:23:57.880 Yeah.
00:23:58.740 All the time, right?
00:23:59.660 Yeah.
00:24:00.060 You ever given an Uber driver a one star?
00:24:02.440 No.
00:24:03.060 Never?
00:24:03.720 No.
00:24:04.040 How about a two star?
00:24:05.400 Never.
00:24:05.860 How about a four star?
00:24:06.720 I always just click five.
00:24:07.840 Okay, so I'll tell you.
00:24:08.920 How often do you Uber?
00:24:10.200 All the time.
00:24:11.020 I Uber everywhere.
00:24:11.860 I don't even have a car.
00:24:12.520 I haven't had a car in 10 years, bro.
00:24:14.040 Perfect.
00:24:14.860 Let me tell you something.
00:24:16.040 Nine out of 10 trips, they're getting a five star.
00:24:18.720 Yeah.
00:24:19.080 You picked me up.
00:24:19.840 You were there on time.
00:24:20.660 You took me to where I was going.
00:24:22.040 Cool.
00:24:22.500 Awesome.
00:24:22.900 Great job.
00:24:23.360 Respect.
00:24:24.340 But every one in 10 trips, someone's getting a three star.
00:24:27.900 Someone's getting a one motherfucking star.
00:24:29.560 Why?
00:24:30.240 Their car smelled.
00:24:31.320 They took the wrong route.
00:24:32.560 They were rude.
00:24:33.800 There's a million different reasons.
00:24:35.000 But the point is, I'll respect you if you do a good job and do the job you're supposed
00:24:39.840 to do, five star, homie.
00:24:41.640 All right?
00:24:42.220 Great job, Pedro.
00:24:43.360 But if you don't do a good job, sorry, Rick, you just got one star.
00:24:48.700 So the whole like, I'm just going to respect you because you're an Uber driver, at what
00:24:54.460 point does merit and value come into the equation?
00:24:56.700 See, now you're kind of switching it.
00:24:58.100 You're like adding something in where you're like, well, what about the ones that don't
00:25:01.100 do a good job?
00:25:02.000 Correct.
00:25:02.160 And yes, we know there are exceptions, Adam.
00:25:05.500 But you've never given a one star.
00:25:07.080 But my point, well, I mean, I probably would, but I just, I'm pretty easy to please.
00:25:13.880 It's like you get me to point A to point B.
00:25:16.000 I'm happy.
00:25:17.000 Okay.
00:25:17.380 But my point is that average men that allow us to do what we do deserve respect.
00:25:21.840 And too many times I see people become successful and get to a certain point and they don't respect
00:25:27.360 the average men that run this country.
00:25:29.280 Not everybody's going to own businesses, not everybody's going to become a top five,
00:25:33.920 10% earner.
00:25:35.400 And quite frankly, we couldn't have like the country would not function if everybody did.
00:25:40.700 A hundred percent agree with you on the infrastructure.
00:25:42.860 Men do not get the respect that they deserve in that regard on a macro level.
00:25:47.520 Okay.
00:25:47.680 On a micro level, I think that you have personal responsibility, individual decisions.
00:25:52.500 Let me ask you this one thing.
00:25:54.420 Why do you think that is?
00:25:55.720 Meaning, this is my hypothesis.
00:25:57.140 Prior to the 1980s, 1950s, however far you want to go, women weren't necessarily in the
00:26:05.160 workforce, right?
00:26:06.380 They were relying on a man.
00:26:08.080 So you could be at a small town in Des Moines, Iowa, or Jacksonville, Florida, or, you know,
00:26:14.440 wherever.
00:26:16.400 And point is, you could get, as an average man, you can get a normal girl.
00:26:21.920 She respects you because she's not working.
00:26:23.640 She relies on you, you pay the bills, an average income could support a family of two, normal
00:26:29.820 guy, normal girl, marriage, family, boom.
00:26:33.140 But as women have been empowered, gone to school, made more money, now they've developed a, I
00:26:38.260 don't really need that $40,000 dude.
00:26:41.280 I make 80 grand.
00:26:42.340 I'm only going to go out with a guy that makes more than me.
00:26:44.440 You know about the hypergamy concept.
00:26:46.040 So is it because women have made more money, they don't necessarily need that man as a
00:26:50.660 provider?
00:26:51.660 And is that the biggest reason that they don't get the respect from the women?
00:26:55.120 What do you think?
00:26:55.560 I would argue women steal men's money.
00:26:57.740 Actually, I would say they do it through child support, alimony, and government benefits more
00:27:01.980 than anything.
00:27:02.660 But that's after they get married.
00:27:04.520 In order to get married, a guy has to fall in love and make that decision.
00:27:07.080 Oh, child support.
00:27:07.940 You don't need to get, you just need to trap the guy.
00:27:09.800 Okay.
00:27:11.060 You need like the wrong, get the wrong woman pregnant.
00:27:13.380 You know, they say that, uh, but women used to, it used to be, everything was more family
00:27:18.300 oriented before.
00:27:19.360 So women would work, they would just work like if a guy had a farm, the woman would work on
00:27:25.380 the farm.
00:27:25.940 So they would just be working together typically.
