In this episode, we take a deep dive into the topic of whether or not we are descended from thrall, and how it pertains to looks. We discuss the differences between good and bad looks, and the ways in which good looks can be passed down through generations.

00:00:00.000 So this is an interesting question. For those people that are consistently ugly, generational, 1.00

00:00:05.040 are they descended from thrall per se, or were they just not blessed with good looks?

00:00:10.120 I would firstly say, remember, we got to hold true to the understanding that thrall is not

00:00:15.900 a person. It's a generation. Can we descend? Can we go up and then recede? Absolutely. I think that

00:00:24.400 the ultimate point of the story is you look forward, you look upward, but that doesn't

00:00:29.980 lay out the idea that could you fall back? And yes, you absolutely can. We know that there are

00:00:36.040 people out there attempting to make us return to thralldom and you should resist that and be noble

00:00:44.240 and be better and grow stronger. You know, as far as looks and things of that nature, I think

00:00:50.340 ultimately there are some pretty long-standing objective beauty within our folk but other things

00:00:58.660 shift you know looking at women from the 1920s to women of the victorian age you know they're

00:01:04.980 of men having beards and men having mustaches or shaved faces or classical french you know they're

00:01:11.700 wearing heels to get that height because it matters so much and again we're kind of heading towards

00:01:16.660 that where height is such a huge factor whereas you know sometimes it was seen as whether the

00:01:22.100 person was strong or whether the man was witty yeah all of those things i don't think that it

00:01:27.680 means you're descendant from thrall because i don't believe thrall is a singular person but

00:01:32.720 ultimately that if you let yourself go if you fall into the pit trap of cankledom and you know your

00:01:39.120 back gets bent and your head is down and your mind is dull and only cares about basic receiving of

00:01:47.680 dopamines all those things that we talk about and there's plenty of people on twitter and the

00:01:52.080 internet they talk about you know rejecting all of that um i think that ultimately is what

00:01:56.960 needs being like descended from thralldom um as far as your looks i mean you know it does again

00:02:04.160 start with who you are and how you hold yourself and if you are kind of you know not on the super

00:02:10.080 good looking side you never know you you could meet someone punching above your weight line

00:02:16.240 and you need to make sure that you hopefully your kids get the the better half i don't i i think

00:02:21.920 that you don't have um that connection to thrall simply as a person it is it is a lot of factors

00:02:31.120 that make you who you are.
