Transcript

00:00:00.000 You said a modern female mentality is me before the family, right?
00:00:03.560 Women filed a divorce.
00:00:04.520 We all know this.
00:00:05.520 What, 70% to 80% of the time, especially if they're college-educated.
00:00:11.680 Divorce.
00:00:12.580 How do you feel about divorce?
00:00:13.760 You said it should be banned?
00:00:15.380 Yeah, except for Will Smith.
00:00:17.480 I'll give him one.
00:00:19.440 So Will Smith.
00:00:20.600 Will Smith.
00:00:21.280 Okay.
00:00:21.780 I grant you a divorce.
00:00:23.660 So other than Will Smith, when do you condone divorce?
00:00:27.380 Under any circumstances?
00:00:29.060 I'll give one-sided abuse.
00:00:30.780 I think if they're beating each other, they should work it out.
00:00:33.380 They should just both figure out how to not hit.
00:00:35.840 But yeah, one-sided abuse.
00:00:37.260 I'll give you a divorce.
00:00:39.520 Maybe some adultery cases.
00:00:41.680 Most cheating is a one-time thing.
00:00:44.060 Fun fact.
00:00:45.080 But maybe if he gets another chick pregnant, I might give you a divorce.
00:00:49.580 So there are exceptions to the rule.
00:00:51.520 Yeah, the church used to like, you'd have to give your case to the church,
00:00:55.560 and then they would say yes or no.
00:00:57.660 But they were a lot more picky back then.
00:00:59.640 So go ham on the women right now, right?
00:01:01.820 I don't think you're going to have a problem with that.
00:01:06.680 What is it that makes them selfish?
00:01:09.460 Why are they the ones filing for divorce the vast majority of the time?
00:01:13.940 What is it that they're just willing to just cast away their kids, their family,
00:01:18.400 and just succumb to their emotions?
00:01:20.180 What is it?
00:01:20.680 Oh, God.
00:01:21.320 I've heard every.
00:01:22.460 I'm sure you've heard every excuse, too.
00:01:24.600 He was holding me back.
00:01:25.880 I'm like, bitch, from what?
00:01:27.360 He gave you kids.
00:01:29.860 No, I mean, women file 70% to 80% of the time,
00:01:32.780 and a lot of times I think it's because they think the grass is greener on the other side.
00:01:37.080 And a lot of times, again, the media tells us we're so special and awesome and amazing,
00:01:41.940 and you're going to find better.
00:01:44.180 And the truth is that most women do not.
00:01:46.240 The majority of single mothers do not remarry.
00:01:48.660 They do not.
00:01:49.220 But I think only it's like 15% actually get a guy to remarry them, 22% get a guy to live
00:01:55.200 with them again.
00:01:56.060 So the majority of single mothers do not have happy endings.
00:01:59.380 And we're not really honest.
00:02:01.040 We don't really tell people these statistics.
00:02:03.480 Okay, bingo.
00:02:04.180 I think that's a great point and a great stat you just made.
00:02:06.620 We just did a whole panel.
00:02:09.280 Kevin Sava was on.
00:02:10.920 Troy Francis was on.
00:02:12.120 A couple of our friends were on.
00:02:13.720 There was a couple of single mothers on the panel.
00:02:17.280 Janelle Gordon, you might know.
00:02:20.240 Janelle, we asked the question to the men.
00:02:23.020 You meet this woman.
00:02:24.060 She's amazing.
00:02:24.740 She's awesome.
00:02:25.480 She's young.
00:02:26.200 She's beautiful.
00:02:27.260 She's charismatic.
00:02:28.460 She's smart.
00:02:29.320 You know, she's loyal.
00:02:30.920 All that fun stuff.
00:02:32.400 But she has a three-year-old kid.
00:02:34.160 Okay?
00:02:34.640 The good news is he was potty trained.
00:02:36.020 Would you date this girl?
00:02:39.400 And uniformly, they're like, nah, nah, nah, nah.
00:02:42.020 And then the women with kids obviously stated their case.
00:02:44.200 That's like, nah, like a real man needs to step up.
00:02:46.700 All that fun stuff.
00:02:47.880 But you said that only 15% of single mothers remarry?
00:02:51.800 Roughly.
00:02:52.240 I don't remember if it's like a roughly 15.
00:02:54.900 It could have been 13.
00:02:56.120 Gotcha.
00:02:56.380 But I think that's an important stat to point out.
00:02:58.380 Yeah.
00:02:58.440 Because if that's the objective to get married, it'd be good to know that stat.
00:03:04.400 Yeah.
00:03:04.880 And then 22% get a guy to live with them.
00:03:07.000 But again, that means the majority do not have happy endings.
00:03:10.260 You know, another stat, if you hit 30 and you're not in a relationship, you're more
00:03:14.780 likely to not have kids than to have them.
00:03:16.960 As a woman?
00:03:17.440 As a woman.
00:03:18.060 Okay.
00:03:18.700 Gotcha.
00:03:18.940 Well, actually, if you hit 35 as a guy, you only have a 15% chance of getting married.
00:03:23.840 I think too many men, like, they see the game.
00:03:26.600 They're like, I'm not playing with it.
00:03:28.200 Interesting.
00:03:28.880 Well, I'm going to give you an opportunity to nitpick my dating life in a second.
00:03:32.440 So we've got a few more things.
00:03:33.680 But you brought up Jada Pinkett.
00:03:35.020 You said, you know, I'll make a few exceptions for divorce, but certainly women should stick
00:03:41.540 it out, not file for divorce.
00:03:45.380 You'll make an exception for Will and Jada.
00:03:48.820 No, she has a new memoir call out called Worthy.
00:03:51.800 You know, we all know what happened with the guy, August, Alistina, years ago in the Red
00:03:57.900 Table Talk.
00:03:58.420 Yeah, if your wife has sex with your daughter's, if your wife has sex with your daughter's friend,
00:04:04.680 I will give you a divorce.
00:04:05.940 Yeah, no doubt.
00:04:07.560 We can agree.
00:04:08.620 He gets one, right?
00:04:10.140 Yeah, here's the book right here.
00:04:12.680 You know, she has alopecia, I believe.
00:04:14.540 So that's what it was.
00:04:15.100 So in this book, she describes her romantic past, that she was really in love with Tupac.
00:04:19.960 They were actually, Will and Jada were actually separated for seven years.
00:04:24.320 And then obviously the entanglement that you mentioned with August, Augustina.
00:04:27.820 So what are your thoughts on what's going on with this?
00:04:31.060 If you were Will's guidance counselor, what would you advise him?
00:04:35.160 And if you were Jada's psychiatrist, guidance counselor, what would you advise her?
00:04:40.220 I would tell you, I would say Jada, please stop torturing this man.
00:04:46.000 Just you need to be by yourself.
00:04:47.960 Yes, yes, it is time for you to die alone.
00:04:51.020 Will Smith, I would also say you should divorce her.
00:04:54.280 Yeah, this is just craziness.
00:04:56.120 This is embarrassing to your family.
00:04:58.360 She's going to keep doing this.
00:04:59.620 She's going to keep making a public spectacle out of whatever you guys go through.
00:05:04.160 Why do you think he still stays with her?
00:05:05.740 Um, what do you think she has on him?
00:05:11.120 Any man that's been disrespected like this, emasculated like this, has to look in the mirror
00:05:16.360 and be like, I'm freaking Will Smith.
00:05:19.840 Maybe it's just cheap.
00:05:20.660 Go listen to some Andrew Tate or Leonardo DiCaprio speeches and figure it out.
00:05:24.700 Why do you think he hasn't done it yet, Pearl?
00:05:26.400 You're an expert, you know.
00:05:27.880 Maybe it's just cheaper to keep her at this point.
00:05:31.820 That is a thing.
00:05:32.720 You know what I mean?
00:05:34.200 It's like, what's on the other side of this?
00:05:35.820 Don't they live separate already?
00:05:37.780 I have no idea.
00:05:38.400 Yeah.
00:05:39.440 I know.
00:05:39.820 I think they said they're trying to get back together.
00:05:41.920 I don't know why you would do that.
00:05:43.300 But I think at this point, he's just tired.
00:05:46.820 Yeah.
00:05:48.160 Just tired of dealing with it and just willing to just roll over and just play dead, basically.
00:05:53.140 Yeah.
00:05:53.460 Well, and a lot of guys have been taught that their job is to make women happy.
00:05:58.260 And the truth is, women were never happy.
00:06:01.000 I mean, they've given us all of these rights and we still find something to whine about.
00:06:05.320 It's interesting that you said be happy because, you know, Will Smith famously has said, it's like, it is not my job to make you happy.
00:06:12.820 You have to make yourself happy.
00:06:14.520 And when you figure it out, you can come back to me.
00:06:17.060 And I don't know what she's dealing with right now.
00:06:19.280 But it's very interesting.
00:06:21.040 This whole Will Smith thing, after all the embarrassment.
00:06:23.580 I'll give him a divorce.
00:06:25.660 It's almost like, what's the thing where you fall in love with your captor?
00:06:30.860 What's that called?
00:06:31.860 What's the syndrome?
00:06:32.960 Stockholm syndrome.
00:06:33.820 Stockholm syndrome.
00:06:35.140 Sort of something like that going on here.
00:06:37.980 She's got some sort of spell on him.
00:06:40.340 Must be.
00:06:41.520 I don't know.
00:06:42.340 No man will put up with that much shame and ridicule and embarrassment and be like, that's my wife, dog.
00:06:49.660 I don't get it.
00:06:50.480 That's fine.
00:06:50.960 I don't get it.
00:06:51.420 And it can't be the money, because even if you have, what's his net worth?
00:06:55.060 Hundreds of millions of dollars.
00:06:56.320 Yeah.
00:06:56.940 I assume he had a prenup.
00:06:57.900 Even if not, here's 100 million for you.
00:07:00.760 I'll keep 100 million.
00:07:01.860 Dude, it's Will Smith.
00:07:03.240 There's something there.
00:07:04.540 She's got some.
00:07:05.680 Some secret.
00:07:06.200 Something on him.
00:07:06.780 Some secret.
00:07:07.440 Yeah.
