00:00:00.000 Do women owe society children? 1.00
00:00:04.480 So there is a study by Morgan Stanley that says 45% of women are expected to be single and childless by 2030 per a recent projection.
00:00:18.060 In 2019, Morgan Stanley published an article outlining women's impact on the American economy. 0.95
00:00:24.060 The number of prime working-age women in the U.S. has been increasing steadily, and most of them are single and completely focused on their career.
00:00:33.900 These women will continue to have a greater representation in the workforce, helping to boost wages. 0.99
00:00:43.700 But these cultural trends are going to have a tremendous impact on the future of American society.
00:00:50.260 Morgan Stanley estimates that 45% of women in their prime working years between the ages of 25 to 44 will be single and childless by the time 2030 arrives.
00:01:02.440 So, do women owe society children? 1.00
00:01:09.980 I feel like we owe it to ourselves, to everyone.
00:01:14.920 I feel like it's nature, it's what, it's history, it's everything around us, it's life.
00:01:26.220 But to society, no.
00:01:29.080 Okay, so we owe it to ourselves, but not...
00:01:31.300 Yeah, we owe it to ourselves, and obviously, if we are with a partner that we love and we see a future with,
00:01:39.720 um, and who's going to stand by us, um, then yeah, we, I would have a child with that person.
00:01:49.640 I, I, I, I would definitely most want to.
00:01:52.800 Do women owe society anything? 1.00
00:01:56.440 Um, that's a hard one.
00:02:01.060 Uh, nope.
00:02:04.400 No?
00:02:05.400 Uh, it's not...
00:02:07.720 I feel like it can be double-sided, though.
00:02:11.480 That's the thing.
00:02:12.860 It's like, there's, we can say, do women owe, but it depends on the context.
00:02:21.480 What, what, what could we possibly owe them?
00:02:24.080 Sorry, can I interject?
00:02:25.460 Um, sure, go ahead.
00:02:26.480 All right.
00:02:27.220 Sorry, I'm not trying to be rude, but, um, when you're saying the word owe, what do you mean by that?
00:02:33.320 Like, because we don't owe this economy anything.
00:02:36.640 Do you owe anybody anything?
00:02:38.380 No.
00:02:38.820 Nothing.
00:02:39.980 What about being, like, a taxpaying contributing member of society?
00:02:43.600 No, no, that's legislation.
00:02:45.220 That's legislation.
00:02:46.040 Well, Michael, it goes back to the question, do you owe anything to society?
00:02:49.420 And, sorry to cut you.
00:02:50.020 Okay.
00:02:50.480 You were talking about USA.
00:02:51.920 We're in UK.
00:02:53.440 All your, all your statistics are from US.
00:02:55.780 The other, the other stat I'm going to bring up is 1.56 is the birth rate per woman.
00:03:00.940 And it's similar in the UK, too.
00:03:02.880 It's similar, but what you was referencing to you was from US.
00:03:06.120 Okay, and what's your, what's your point?
00:03:07.580 Well, my point is to the fact of we don't owe anything to anyone.
00:03:11.660 Okay.
00:03:12.520 Any formal being, any person that you see, we don't owe anyone to nothing.
00:03:17.440 Okay.
00:03:18.100 Nobody anything.
00:03:19.160 We do.
00:03:20.200 Okay.
00:03:20.760 Okay.
00:03:21.240 So, what do you think?
00:03:23.160 The word owe is getting my back up.
00:03:26.260 But I feel like that's, if you owe something, that must mean I'm in debt somewhere.
00:03:31.200 I'm not in debt nowhere.
00:03:32.680 You didn't choose to be born.
00:03:34.580 First of all, and second of all, I strongly agree that there's a reason why us as women
00:03:41.420 can have children and we're supposed to birth kids.
00:03:45.060 But when I decide to do that, how I decide to do that with who I decide to do that with,
00:03:49.380 that I know a lot of people that don't even want to have kids, period.
00:03:52.240 So, but for me, 100%, I feel like we're here to, you know, we do need to reproduce,
00:03:58.260 but to owe, definitely not.
00:03:59.920 So, how do we have any structure in society if nobody owes anybody anything?
00:04:05.980 Because no society never gave me anything.
00:04:08.880 It's my mom and dad that gave me life and a higher being if you believe in it.
00:04:12.960 Does society give you protection?
00:04:14.780 No.
00:04:15.580 Nothing?
00:04:16.140 Nothing.
00:04:16.420 You can't call the police?
00:04:17.780 The only thing that society gives me for my personal opinion, I'm not talking for everyone,
00:04:22.940 I'm talking for myself.
00:04:24.380 The only thing society gives me is debt.
00:04:27.980 Does society give you, how do you, how does society give you debt?
00:04:31.600 Because where I come from, how I grew up, when it comes to protection, it's not the society
00:04:37.780 or the government that protects me.
00:04:39.360 When it comes to feeding me and giving me opportunities, it wasn't the government that giving me opportunities
00:04:47.160 or anything to make me prosper in life.
00:04:49.460 So, I don't owe anything to society.
00:04:54.340 Okay.
00:04:54.780 If you talk about my lineage and my lineage and where my family comes from, that's something different.
00:05:00.100 Okay.
00:05:00.420 But me as a human being, to talk about society, society ain't giving me nothing.
00:05:04.740 If you were born at any other period of history, you might see things a little differently.
00:05:09.520 But I'm not.
00:05:10.220 So, I only can talk for my truth.
00:05:12.280 Do you understand?
00:05:13.200 So, I'm not talking for humanity.
00:05:15.100 I'm talking for me, that kind of artist.
00:05:16.440 What do you mean?
00:05:16.940 What do you mean, my truth?
00:05:18.540 My truth.
00:05:19.260 Like I said.
00:05:20.000 Like, isn't there just the truth?
00:05:21.100 Let me elaborate on this one.
00:05:23.360 Definitely not.
00:05:24.120 There's definitely not just the truth because how your idea of even going back to the word
00:05:32.340 oh is going to be completely different to either me or a few other people sitting here
00:05:38.580 today is going to have a complete different idea just because of our heritage and because
00:05:43.200 of where we come from.
00:05:44.180 I feel like you just have to speak for yourself, that's it?
00:05:47.040 That's it.
00:05:47.340 And we should leave that there.
00:05:48.180 I would just like to express solemn gratitude to Western society for allowing all of us
00:05:54.840 in this room of all different backgrounds, skin colors, ethnicities, religions to sit
00:05:58.500 in a room with a degree of civility without experiencing any sort of a mob attack on any
00:06:03.520 of us or any of us being bought and sold.
00:06:05.140 I think it's a brilliant thing that Western society gave us.
00:06:07.840 And I think we do owe a debt to that, at least at the very least, a debt of respect and
00:06:11.540 a debt of gratitude.
00:06:12.340 So, I just want to express that.
00:06:13.520 Sorry, sir.
00:06:13.940 What do you mean by bought and sold?
00:06:15.440 I mean that based on my ethnic background and yours, depending on when we were born
00:06:20.600 and where we were born, society would have treated us differently, myself included.
00:06:24.380 Does that make sense?
00:06:25.380 And so, we owe tremendous gratitude that we have a Western society, we can have a civil
00:06:29.700 conversation, discourse, and pursuit of truth.
00:06:32.480 And I'm going to be honest with you, it doesn't make sense to me.
00:06:36.740 And I'm not going to talk for you.
00:06:37.800 You're talking for me.
00:06:39.160 I'm not talking for you, sir.
00:06:40.240 How is he talking for you?
00:06:41.280 Because you said to me, it makes sense to me.
00:06:43.420 How can you tell me it makes sense?
00:06:44.860 He said, it makes sense.
00:06:47.300 Like, I live my life as a black human being, a young black man in this land.
00:06:52.500 The discriminations that have come upon me is different to you.
00:06:57.000 I'm not going to tell you to digest what I've been through to live your life in any different
00:07:03.160 aspect, to get what I mean.
00:07:05.440 I think you're speaking from pain.
00:07:07.360 No, definitely not from pain.
00:07:08.780 It's from reality.
00:07:09.720 But it's my reality.
00:07:11.360 It's my reality, darling.
00:07:12.760 Yeah, but yeah, of course it's your reality.
00:07:14.620 Yeah, that's it.
00:07:15.780 It's your pain.
00:07:16.900 That's it.
00:07:17.620 Like, I'm not globalizing anything.
00:07:19.580 Nobody's disputing what you've been through and your reality, but it does sound like it
00:07:23.080 comes from pain.
00:07:23.780 Because what I'm hearing is that society has conditioned us to be selfish.
00:07:27.820 What do you mean you don't owe the world nothing?
00:07:29.280 Okay, in the world, oh, you don't like the world.
00:07:31.660 All right.
00:07:32.000 And next, we'll use another word.
00:07:33.900 But you still, as human beings, we have a biological necessity to create with each other.
00:07:39.500 It's just the point.
00:07:40.440 We need to continue this earth.
00:07:41.800 We need to evolve.
00:07:42.640 We need to grow.
00:07:43.220 We need to develop.
00:07:44.240 Our offspring needs to teach us new things.
00:07:46.180 Like, that's a very important thing.
00:07:47.980 Like, this world is very tough.
00:07:49.920 It's hard.
00:07:50.620 It's so hard for women and for men.
00:07:52.660 Nobody struggles bigger than nobody else.
00:07:54.460 Because I've probably been through 10 times more than people in this room, but I have
00:07:58.120 a very positive perspective of life.
00:08:00.640 I do owe my society something.
00:08:02.340 If I'm in a room full of you guys, I do owe you something.
00:08:04.980 I do owe you good energy.
00:08:06.420 What, the OG children?
00:08:07.320 But that comes with it.
00:08:08.700 Through women comes love.
00:08:09.300 But that was the question, darling.
00:08:10.340 Through women comes love.
00:08:11.300 And that was the question.
00:08:12.100 Through reproduction.
00:08:13.460 And we do have, it's a biological necessity for us to produce.
00:08:17.780 We're here.
00:08:18.460 We're creators.
00:08:19.340 We're powerful.
00:08:20.000 We're women. 1.00
00:08:20.440 That is one of our biggest things to do.
00:08:22.760 My mom's life path on this earth was to be a mother. 0.95
00:08:25.580 And she's been through the worst of losing three kids before she had my brother.
00:08:29.380 Then she had my brother.
00:08:30.100 18 years later, then she lost two more before me.
00:08:32.640 Then she had me.
00:08:33.320 She had to pray at a gravestone just to be a mother. 0.99
00:08:36.060 And I was born.
00:08:37.060 So I think it's very important that we as women should actually take on that role.
00:08:40.840 That's what we're here to do.
00:08:42.240 This is us.
00:08:43.080 This is our power to love and to grow and to transform life.
00:08:47.520 Like, stop with this selfish thing.
00:08:49.580 I don't know what the world has done to everybody.
00:08:51.600 It's all about me.
00:08:52.680 It's all about me.
00:08:53.660 See where life takes us with that.
00:08:55.220 Why do you think that's such a common mentality that we don't owe society anything?
00:08:59.600 Because we're being conditioned to be selfish.
00:09:01.980 We get so far apart from each other, so torn apart from each other.
00:09:05.880 We don't trust.
00:09:07.180 We're not easy to give our hand.
00:09:08.920 We're not that type of people anymore.
00:09:10.740 We're not trying to connect.
00:09:12.260 If we actually connected, we realize that creation is the biggest part of life.
00:09:16.840 We're in a room of creatives.
00:09:18.720 We can't deny our human necessity and need just because we're selfish, because we care
00:09:23.200 about our career.
00:09:23.920 All these things are not going to be there when we're dead.
00:09:26.320 All he cares about is our soul and what we've left.
00:09:28.240 I think a lot.
