In this episode, we discuss Margot Robbie's recent comments about playing Barbie in the new movie 'The Handmaid's Tale' and the reaction to them. We also discuss how women react to these comments and how they should have been handled.
00:00:00.000So I wanted I wanted to read you some of the responses towards towards them, because I just I wasn't even interested.
00:00:07.900Like, obviously, she's hot. Right. But I was more interested in how, like, viscerally everybody reacted, because I was like, if I said, I don't think Leonardo DiCaprio is that hot.
00:00:17.720I don't think Michael B. Jordan's that hot, like whatever, like sex status of like the guy equivalent.
00:00:22.980No one would really care. But so I was thinking, like, I think women reacted so viscerally to this, because if men don't perceive her as attractive, like, what does that make us that like the average chick?
00:00:33.600You know what I mean? So there was like the guys would come in and said, I want everybody who says Margot Robbie isn't attractive enough to play Barbie to post photos of your wives and girlfriends.
00:00:46.200I'm trying to see something. Exactly. But but the thing is, like, I think the question more is like because people will attack the people.
00:00:52.980Instead of the argument, like, is she a mid or is she not mid? And you could say objectively she's not.
00:00:57.680But like, what is a person's like girlfriend have to do with it? Listen, I'm sorry for taking up some space here, but let's get serious.
00:01:03.640Like if somebody approached me in front of my wife and said, how hot is Margot Robbie?
00:01:07.100I would be incentivized to virtue signal. Well, you know, there's a lot of dudes out there that can't pick up an eight or nine, which is just how it is.
00:01:13.180And it's fine. It's OK. Like we're working on ourselves as men. Right. And they virtue signal to say, like, well, she's not even that hot.
00:01:19.020It's like, dude, she's not picking you. Like, show show some damn respect and just like live up to where you are and just say the truth.
00:01:26.120You know, unhinged take. If you ever get it in your head that Margot Robbie isn't in the top five percent of conventionally attractive women log off, go for a walk outside.
00:01:36.040So say hello to a normal looking female return and correct yourself.
00:01:40.240And it was interesting. I put I just I've been doing this before the show.
00:01:45.720I put it in Google, just the picture of her. Now, I wish I did one without makeup, but guess guess what her rating was.
00:01:55.140Can you guys see it? Don't look. She can see it. But one to ten.
00:01:59.160What do you think? Because they had like you basically basically put the picture in and then men rate her one to ten.
00:02:04.420Guess what? I was like, is she mid? Let's look. Guess. Guess what percent attractiveness she's in?
00:02:11.560Percent. Yeah. Like top ten, top twenty.
00:02:15.080Top ten. Yeah. Top ten. I would say top ten. Yeah. Top ten. Top ten percent.
00:02:20.180So they are chatting shit. But but I was more curious about the reaction.
00:02:24.420So this led me today was I was hoping as a class, as a group, we can find celebrities and examples that we can rate people one to ten.
00:02:38.000It should be interesting. Yeah. So I was thinking it'd be interesting to see like what the men pick and what the women pick as like a ten and each rating.
00:02:45.920OK. So. I did this one, King. The other one.
