i think the premise that men and women can be equal i think is wrong i think men are yeah but
00:00:05.260
there's equal to what extent you know so obviously if you're talking in the sense of relationships
00:00:10.380
then obviously we can go to traditions and cultures there's a few different factors that
00:00:15.480
we can point out if we want to look at in that way but so i do agree that there is roles within
00:00:21.320
a home i'm very traditional in that way i agree with a lot of the things that um not i don't
00:00:27.120
agree with all of the things before no muzzle i kind of liked the muzzle you see i'm very um i like
00:00:33.800
i do agree you know that um again i'm all for diversity i think voices do need to be heard
00:00:39.380
but there's respect as well and um a muzzle's very disrespectful well it was only used it was only
00:00:46.060
used for extreme women you've seen those women that are berating their husbands in public that that make
00:00:52.260
their husbands lives a living hell it wasn't yeah but then that's down to how that that woman was
00:00:57.060
brought up and then that's down for the man as an individual to say that's not the kind of woman i
00:01:01.800
want to be with well you were forced to be married back then so to me i was like i'm not saying we
00:01:07.760
should bring back the mu i'm kind of joking but but my my thing is i kind of understand it because
00:01:12.700
they were forced in this marriage he's married to a wicked wife it's like women don't talk about so
00:01:18.360
like social abuse or verbal abuse women can be very verbally abusive and women are equally abusive
00:01:24.900
as men you get and with men that go through domestic violence and because of women as well
00:01:29.840
so it can work both ways and again maybe it doesn't get discussed as much because obviously
00:01:35.540
in today's culture today's culture everything has been changed so feminism has actually brought and
00:01:43.220
changed laws whereas imagine if women that were a lot of women were getting domestically abused
00:01:47.880
and nothing was getting done about it because their voices weren't being heard there wasn't laws
00:01:52.600
for them but they even but i'm saying even changes that have been made but even even back then they
00:01:57.860
would argue that the the laws still favored women like for example they they estimate that 61 percent
00:02:02.920
of murders were done by women and most of them didn't even get because back then they didn't have
00:02:07.000
abortion so women would literally kill a quarter of their kids they just kill them we're also missing
00:02:10.880
there's like a interesting piece of the puzzle that we're missing in this is that like
00:02:14.280
okay let's go back to the 1700s and yes like there's some different sort of expectations so
00:02:19.180
women are doing all this stuff around the house etc but it's like what was the what was life like
00:02:22.640
for an average man in the 1700s oh horrible right it's like you're working on a something like you're
00:02:28.140
breathing poison at work all the time you're dealing with poison you're dying like look at the
00:02:32.780
life expectancy is way shorter for men it was like farmhand um coal miner or a factory worker but i don't
00:02:40.420
remember what year the factories came in and like there's a pretty good chance you're gonna get like
00:02:44.340
a wound that kills you or you're gonna lose a limb at whatever job you're doing and you're gonna die
00:02:48.420
10 to 15 years earlier than the woman in your life so it's like oh we have all these rules it's like well
00:02:54.100
man men had a really hard existence back then right and it's like can you give him a little credit he's
00:02:59.940
gonna die in war probably defending you well my my thing is i just think we can't be equal because
00:03:06.080
every time like how can you have equality when you'll always have to appeal to men to enforce our
00:03:10.360
rights you always have to ask men to give us the rights no we can't can i ask a quick question
00:03:15.900
about this article was this this is presenting a very overly idyllic version of the past and a very
00:03:23.200
very like antagonistic version of the present because there would have been many women back
00:03:28.760
then who would have been bad wives who would have been very cruel to their husbands and there are many
00:03:33.460
women hey i showed you the muzzle but who showed you the muzzle this is presenting an overly idealistic
00:03:40.200
version because i agree with you though i completely agree that feminism is bad but to say
00:03:44.720
that it was all brilliant back then because for example as the gentleman rightly said you know a lot
00:03:49.400
of men led very difficult lives it's not like i didn't say i didn't say it was i didn't say it was all
00:03:54.900
good i would argue the wives were better then i mean i think i think i don't know on the basis of
00:03:59.800
purity alone yeah why is that on the basis you can say that sex was actually used as a weapon
00:04:06.100
to control what percent of women have a cookbook today what percent of women really you you know
00:04:11.360
the average chick i've had over 600 i've probably had a thousand p women in here in the last year the
00:04:16.960
majority don't know how to cook are they from this society i i have interviewed women all over the
00:04:22.200
world like yeah everywhere i'm telling you i've i've i can't even count how many countries we've had
00:04:27.340
and i'm not saying there are women that are more traditional that do cook that do all those
00:04:31.720
traditional things but do i think more than half of women have those skills today no well you don't
00:04:36.840
have to go back far just think of your grandparents marriage like most of us can remember our you know
00:04:41.140
our grandparents being together and what that marriage looked like and it's probably different
00:04:44.640
in how our parents were and it's different from our peers my mom showed me from young yeah i was
00:04:52.140
grown up she looked after my dad she looked after the family my mom did not know what working was
00:04:58.320
she was just a housewife she would cook my dad would come home from work and we would have a
00:05:03.800
family dinner that's how it was 19 years my mom was putting up with it and i think it's just about
00:05:09.380
how you're raised it's not about like i don't know it just really depends on how you're raised and
00:05:14.600
i guess the people you're around literally being a housewife is a good thing as well as well we
00:05:20.100
should not housewife but i think my point is if you look at every statistical data point the wives
00:05:25.340
are worse today than they were they're fatter just because you just because you don't like the way
00:05:31.760
it sounds like the the fact is the truth women were more the women were more pure it just sounds
00:05:36.980
like a way to make modern women look bad i mean modern like we do look bad most modern women are not
00:05:42.020
feminists they're worse exactly but here's the thing you might they might not identify as a
00:05:48.080
feminist but most women live their lives according to feminism because traditional women put family
00:05:52.960
first but you don't have to be traditional women are typically married before the age of 25 because
00:05:58.700
that's the number one thing they prioritize most women go to college and college teaches you to be
00:06:03.720
a feminist i'm not saying it's women's fault completely right because we're all told to go to
00:06:07.820
college we're told to do this stuff but it's like when you prioritize having a career in your most
00:06:14.200
fertile years that's the life of a parentizing a career isn't feminist for example margaret thatcher
00:06:19.400
no it's not margaret thatcher was not a feminist like you don't isn't the options don't have to be
00:06:24.280
traditional woman versus feminist this is a misconception i'm saying i'm saying they might
00:06:30.260
not identify as a feminist but the way they live their life is more feminist because what do you mean
00:06:35.420
because when i say when i say when i say traditional traditional is putting the family first and family
00:06:41.260
is your first priority so women that are truly true i'm not even saying i'm i'm not a traditional
00:06:47.080
woman otherwise i'd be married by now so i'm not even i'm not even saying it's me but i'm saying the
00:06:51.860
women i know that are the most feminine the most traditional they are married before 25 they don't
00:06:56.420
really care about college they don't really care about a career and that's their number one priority
00:07:00.820
so a lot of times people get like like like frustrated because they're like women think they're
00:07:06.480
traditional and they're not but why the options traditional versus feminist you know like because
00:07:11.460
also this is the misconception being an independent woman doesn't mean being a feminist like a lot of
00:07:16.040
career women because women have taken it to the next level and not even understanding what it means to be
00:07:24.360
independent so now a lot of these women are saying oh i'm independent i don't need a man
00:07:28.960
yeah they're man hating because feminism is really about being anti-men like you can be pro men and
00:07:35.620
also be a career focused woman you know what i mean like there's been a lot of married women for
00:07:40.700
example helen girley brown was happily married and she was one of the founders of sexual liberation a
00:07:46.160
lot of feminists didn't like her okay so what pearly's trying to say is it's either you're going to
00:07:52.380
dedicate your life to your family or you're going to dedicate yourself to a big career no one's saying
00:07:58.400
you can't no one's gonna no you can't so basically you can be i i my my business academy
00:08:04.560
i actually train women to do business like women entrepreneurs and um female leaders yeah the reason
00:08:12.220
why i do it is not for the feminists so to preach to them to be independent but what i'm trying to do
00:08:17.880
is to help them build their self-esteem yes and give them skills that they can transfer to their
00:08:22.600
children because the way i see it the women spend the majority of the time at home with their
00:08:27.180
children with the children so in order to build leaders and entrepreneurs out of our children
00:08:33.100
we need to educate our women in that way so that's the purpose of my business so when i'm teaching these
00:08:39.380
women i'm not teaching them to say right you lot are going to go into your business you're going to
00:08:43.680
be leaders and you don't need no men you're going to lead the world i'm not teaching them that i'm
00:08:48.800
teaching them to grow and be more confident with themselves and become better influencers for their
00:08:54.760
children because as women we are a big influence in society and to our children you know
