Yeah, but my point isn't like that may be true, but my point is we shouldn't be promoting it for sure
00:00:05.700
Like I just I have a problem when we start putting that on the cover of magazines because like a model supposed to be the epitome of beauty
00:00:12.520
But it's supposed to be like the top 10 15% of beauty just like in the NBA
00:00:19.700
And now we're putting people that are overweight and unhealthy on the covers of magazines and trying to make it normal
00:00:25.100
Yeah, and it's not like in Asia that trend is not picking up and they're like looking at America
00:00:29.760
And they're like what the fuck are these Americans doing well the average the average woman in the u.s. Is five five hundred seventy pounds
00:00:35.680
It's overweight. Yeah, I know. Yeah, and it's because there's high for there's high fructose corn syrup in everything in America
00:00:41.540
That's the main reason there's literally high fructose corn syrup and seed oils and everything that are just killing people the chemicals
00:00:49.800
My opinion is I think people just need to be real 12 stone. Sorry 12.1 stone
00:00:55.820
What about kilos average I thought stone isn't that what you guys do here?
00:01:11.080
I live in Japan my my scale is in my scale is in kilos in the state in Japan. Yeah, sorry go ahead
00:01:19.740
Um, I totally understand what you're doing. Um, what you guys are saying
00:01:26.060
Um, I just think people just need to be more real especially plus size people like with me
00:01:30.700
I'm not about the i'm not trying to lie here. I'm not trying to promote anything
00:01:36.140
But the truth is when for for example when you're shopping for clothes as a child
00:01:41.660
Imagine perform from from four years old. I was always a bigger child
00:01:51.420
Imagine imagine now you're buying clothes you're going shopping you want to buy clothes
00:01:59.020
So for plus size the way is is they just they're basically just made anyhow in any cuts
00:02:04.060
So you can get something and it will look like you're wearing like blinds or something or some sort of
00:02:10.220
You've just wrapped anything around you like that's how it looks
00:02:12.940
So that's why it's important to have the representation, but I honestly think
00:02:24.780
But what are you doing about it? I know what i'm doing. I'm eating properly. I'm making sure i'm having my green juices
00:02:32.700
So all the rubbish comes out and and when I pig out I do pig out and I love it
00:02:37.580
But I just think that's a bit like entitled to say oh because i'm big now
00:02:44.220
Maybe not maybe not you saying that but i'm just saying like that
00:02:46.700
That's what the body positivity movement seems to be pushing like we're a big we need that representation like i'm a ginger
00:02:58.220
Like I just think like models are supposed to be the top like 10 percent of beauty like that's supposed to be
00:03:03.260
Like I I kind of want to look at a magazine and see something. I will never attain
00:03:15.900
I know I will never be as good as those wnba players, but it's okay because that's the top 10 percent of talent
00:03:23.180
Just like you've got this successful podcast. That's you. That's what you're good at
00:03:27.340
That's your skill like people have their own things that they're good at and and and
00:03:32.220
We should also celebrate as human beings the stuff that we're good at our individuality
00:03:37.580
It's also a big difference between men and women too because like
00:03:42.940
I bet you I could figure out how to use steroids and like look that good
00:03:48.140
A guy will think like I can I can up my protein I can get a gym partner like you know
00:03:52.380
They they lead in their delusion in a positive aspect, but then like in from my experience like you know if you were to just
00:03:58.700
Tell a woman that any part of her physical appearance was
00:04:04.380
Maybe not up to par according to your personal standards as a man
00:04:08.220
You know, they take it as a personal attack. Yeah, and that's when they're like well, yeah
00:04:12.460
You have fake teeth and your fucking suit is ugly
00:04:17.180
You know so it's big difference between the genders for sure
00:04:20.220
I just if you look at it right because it's kind of disingenuous to if you're intellectually sound enough to
00:04:27.580
Perceive the reality of the situation that like it's a it's a gigantic
00:04:37.180
Versus men because if there was body positivity we're talking about the entire body correct
00:04:43.180
Like how many women often make fun of guys who are short?
00:04:47.580
It's like part of the culture like well, he's five foot five
00:04:50.860
Short man's short man syndrome short man in syndrome small dick energy
00:05:04.140
Like with girls my age like we all like my type right is like tall you need to be like minimum like five ten
00:05:12.140
Yeah, if I look past someone that's like five five for me. I'm just like no, sorry instantly and
00:05:20.140
That's like that's not good for us girls to like
00:05:25.180
But you don't see the men coming forward and saying get short men on the cover of magazines
00:05:32.380
Yeah, and this all goes back to money because it's all about
00:05:37.820
Modern day marketing if you look at it, it is all geared towards
00:05:42.060
Financially extorting women and you look at like for example, I'm american again. I'm using american example
00:05:46.860
But over two-thirds of the student loan debt in america is owned by women and then on the flip side of that
00:06:00.300
Are all majority dominated by women as well. So they're taking the tons of tons of debt
00:06:10.300
And they're later in life like yeah, I want to marry like they find out the sky is amazing whatever
00:06:16.780
They want to get married. She's like, oh, yeah, but I have like
00:06:19.100
150 thousand dollars student loan debt and the guy's just like, oh, well you give me my girlfriend
00:06:25.820
You know, do you still have to pay that off though? Yeah, you have to
00:06:33.260
Sorry, i'm american. So i'm just giving guys american side of things. That's the only
00:06:38.220
Debt you cannot erase by filing bankruptcy so you can file bankruptcy like a credit card debt of mortgage debt car loans everything
00:06:46.540
We cannot get rid of that loan to the united states government. Wow student loan debt
00:06:53.100
Um, so we have a video we're going to show could you show the couple one first
00:06:57.580
Um, okay, i'm going to read the super chats really quick while we're waiting for him to bring it up
00:07:10.540
Denalva it's so funny. They made an account denalva denalva denalva denalva the actual corn industry industry really sold
00:07:20.380
Sold us waste corn and byproducts and surplus and cereal and told us it was healthy
00:07:27.660
All of those juices are full of sugar. That's not what you want a huge contributor to the weight epidemic is propaganda by the food industry
00:07:33.980
Sugar and carbs in any form are going to be stored as fat
00:07:41.420
One second guys also make sure you like the video guys again. Just a reminder. We are going to open up the chat
00:07:54.140

00:08:13.020
she made it no no no no no no no no no that's actually it's funny because
00:08:19.980
i'll be like what the hell i've been going unhealthy throughout the years
00:08:25.260
there's there's a yes she's celebrating herself but the way it's done with happy music
00:08:30.220
i'd be i'd be actually no i can't say i can't don't want to say anything but
00:08:40.140
and one thing that i know i guess people are different and it's good she's celebrating herself
00:08:49.340
when skinnier people skinnier than me look at this video i can i can imagine what they think
00:08:56.220
so i know that you guys aren't also what do you think they think they think oh gosh she's dying
00:09:05.020
her insides are growing older and and i'm not gonna lie same with me
00:09:10.140
when i'm when i'm eating certain things i'm thinking oh gosh
00:09:14.220
oh gosh like something and you know with big people as well like
00:09:18.140
like yeah uh let me give some big plus size facts when you have to go to the loo i'm telling
00:09:24.780
you it feels like fireworks are in your belly and and there is a pressure so but like all these
00:09:32.300
plus size okay sorry i think i'm going sorry guys sorry i'm the thing is this for me like so
00:09:37.980
i'm a big fan of love i'm a big fan of like being in love and being in relationship having a good woman
00:09:42.780
in your life and for me like i just maybe this is selfish but like you need to stay skinny so you
00:09:49.660
don't die because i don't want to do this again i don't want to fall in love and lose you and all
00:09:54.460
that so anytime i'm in a relationship with a girl whether she works out or not she's going to start
00:09:59.660
working out when she's dating me so i would just hate to see that as a person dating someone who is
00:10:05.340
gaining weight and then i have to be like looking and dealing with the health issues
