00:00:00.000
okay what percent of western women are marriage material in 2023
00:00:10.720
that's a really hard question yeah i just say first thing that came to my head maybe 25 percent
00:00:15.600
25 um probably 20 20 20 was the question what percentage of women are wifeable
00:00:24.560
marriage material marriage material um yeah under 20 percent
00:00:30.000
under 20 what do you think hmm i'd say 30 30 percent i'd say about 15
00:00:36.720
percent the way how things are going right now it's the last dying breed so that's 20
00:00:43.920
10 percent do you think women are better off in 2023 than they were in 1953
00:00:50.400
and tell me why yes or no and why i don't think so i think this is just my personal opinion
00:01:00.400
in 2023 you are better off materialistically um that's just the way society is we have to sort
00:01:08.800
of fend for ourselves so um you know if i really wanted to i can work out hard i can go out by a
00:01:13.680
mercedes get a chanel bag whatever but you know i still have to walk down the street alone at night
00:01:22.000
not knowing what could happen you know and and like you know the option to sit at home and be a
00:01:29.760
housewife isn't readily available to me so i do believe that women in the 1950s were better off
00:01:37.600
just because life was simpler also like technology wasn't around back then and i think that
00:01:42.240
especially social media is the most toxic thing to happen to us you know we're we're more connected
00:01:49.280
than ever before but i think kind of what you were saying like spiritually we're further apart
00:01:54.880
than we ever have been because social media and and everything is just a front and and you get to
00:01:59.840
tailor that front how you want to be perceived um so yeah i i definitely think that me personally i
00:02:06.480
would have much preferred to have been around in the 1950s yeah i agree i definitely would have much
00:02:13.840
preferred to be around in that time because you know things were just i would say more simple back
00:02:20.880
then and just more just i wouldn't say easier but just there wasn't a lot of pressure you know you you
00:02:29.600
didn't have that much pressure to prove yourself or you weren't comparing yourself to people all the time
00:02:35.280
and you know you kind of just did what you did to get by and you know communities are stronger you
00:02:40.560
looked after your family and you know you weren't distracted by social media and you know what
00:02:47.360
people are doing and what people are wearing and buying nowadays so i i feel like we we have been
00:02:54.640
like brainwashed in a way um and i would much prefer to be back in those days to be honest
00:03:00.240
um i would say um obviously we're talking about gender right now but um for race um i think in 1953
00:03:09.120
like it must have been way harder for like black couples to um be able to even like function um so
00:03:17.440
and then 2023 um we're much more aware about like race and like um the effects that like black people
00:03:23.840
have like so for me to find a lovely black man in 2023 i feel like yeah it will be much easier for us
00:03:31.440
to actually be in an open relationship um like open open no not open open because no i want to be in a
00:03:41.360
monogamous relationship but yeah it's what you know to even hold hands down the street without
00:03:46.960
yeah so yeah i think 2023 can you ask the question again
00:03:54.960
are women better off in 2023 than they were in 1953 oh no i think like they're really influenced by
00:04:02.640
society and that they're like chasing what society is feeding them and like when they actually get there
00:04:10.080
they're so unhappy because they've realized they've wasted their life chasing something that was designed
00:04:14.560
to destroy them i think that was always implicated from the 1950s even till now there's always been
00:04:22.560
fashion there's always been upper middle and lower class so people have always been chasing something
00:04:28.480
you know i mean to bear themselves so me personally i say it's just more in your face because we've got
00:04:36.640
access to it you know i mean certain people that what we're now looking at and thinking oh wow they've
00:04:41.760
got this and that there's always been an upper class middle class and a lower class it's just
00:04:46.560
more in your face now and we more look at it like oh if they can do it i must be able to do it it's just
00:04:53.920
you're chasing it quicker because it's in your face but in aspect of like fashion and everything
00:05:01.040
nothing has really changed i'll be honest it's just more in your face it's just more accessible
00:05:06.480
but for me personally i'm i'm happy in 2023. don't think social media makes women more delusional
00:05:12.080
it does but it's in your face that's why it's like they start thinking they look like the filters
00:05:18.160
i hate it after a show i'll see someone message me off of instagram i'll look at it i'm like what the
00:05:23.440
who was that i hear that 100 it's like they start to literally think that they're the filters and that
00:05:30.240
the attention they get from those filters is equates to real life and it does it but that
00:05:35.840
just as human beings we've always looked up like there's always been kings and queens you know i
00:05:40.240
mean like so it's just more in your face it weren't accessible like that like the rich used to be
00:05:45.680
around the rich the poor used to be around the poor do you know i mean and if you did see rich person or
00:05:50.880
you'd look up to being that person but it's exactly the same i'd say it's just more in your face it's
00:05:56.560
more accessible i think that's what the computers are designed to do like the economy now relies on
00:06:01.600
the computer which influences the outcome of society as a whole i actually think women are
00:06:07.120
better off today because they have no consequences for bad decisions i don't think it makes us happy
00:06:12.080
but i just think like before if you left your man you were homeless now we have all these programs
00:06:16.480
to bail us out of every bad decision that we made so if you look at it very true i mean i don't
00:06:22.160
think it makes us happy just like it's kind of like if you give a kid everything they want
00:06:26.400
are they really going to be happy at 18. i almost think women are spoiled in 2022. yeah 23. oh my
00:06:32.720
gosh that's after me i forgot you agree disagree yeah yeah yeah yeah you don't think women are spoiled
00:06:42.960
in 2023. no i do oh you do i thought you said you don't oh no i think everyone they're super reasonable
00:06:47.840
oh okay okay this is a pretty reasonable panel but i think you know you said obviously like are women
00:06:52.480
better off yeah i think i think yeah you're like i think i agree they are like better off we are um
00:06:57.840
my answer was more coming from like a personal point of view of what i'd like and you're right
00:07:01.120
it's about what what what would make us happy but if you're actually looking at it black and white yeah
00:07:06.080
you're better off like if even if you do go homeless or whatever like starting early fans like we have
00:07:11.040
that option now or or it's like if you get pregnant they used to have shotgun shotgun weddings now they
00:07:18.400
just have abortions wow it's true yeah it is you know 40 of women that have had abortions have a two
00:07:24.880
or more 40 wow that's a really sad statistic and so and 60 what are they going to have in the future
00:07:31.360
so it's literally a form of birth control in 2023 yeah people use abortions as birth control and it's
00:07:36.800
it's not great i don't think it's great well i definitely think we're better off in 2023 i don't
00:07:41.920
think we would have been able to do this in the 1950s sit with a woman only panel and discuss topics
00:07:48.320
so i'm grateful that we're here they had some actually i've been reacting to some yeah it's like
00:07:53.520
um there was uh but were they like as as viewed yeah it was it was well probably not as well i mean
00:08:00.240
i can't imagine they had the views youtube does nowadays but i was watching this debate i don't know
00:08:06.160
if we did we post the reaction of the debate of the housewife versus the
00:08:12.560
do you remember it was like a housewife versus a career woman and it was so interesting because
00:08:16.960
it was the same conversation we're having today but it was literally it might have been the 60s
00:08:20.560
or like 50s 60s time frame but then maybe it wouldn't be as diverse maybe probably not
00:08:26.160
yeah probably not so like i'm i think we're better off now in 2023 yeah we've got more access to more
00:08:31.120
things but it's like i think we're better off but we're not happier as a whole yeah yeah i don't think
00:08:35.680
women the outcomes like leave us happy and i feel like what you said um social media the delusion
00:08:41.920
i feel like a lot of us well i speak for myself maybe we spend so much time on social media that
00:08:46.400
we get distracted and we start looking at what we see and thinking okay this is what we need this is
00:08:51.120
what we should be doing this is where we should do and in reality it's not like that everyone's showing
00:08:55.040
their highlights nobody's showing what is really happening yeah well and i think the delusion is
00:08:59.600
leaving us single and childless yeah i mean what who is a kid here who's good you a kid or they say
00:09:04.480
50 percent of women are going to be single and childless by it's 2030 so i mean it's half of us
00:09:10.160
like we look in this room half of us probably won't have kids that's so sad that's really sad
00:09:16.240
that is so sad i hope it's not any of you but it's it's but does that make people happy and my
00:09:20.960
grandma you know it's crazy my grandma um she she's like pretty sick so i don't know how much longer
00:09:25.440
she's gonna live but so i've been asking her like these like deep questions i'll get them on video
00:09:29.360
and one of them i said like do you have any regrets in life and she told me i wish i had
00:09:33.440
more kids and i said grandma you had nine kids how many did she want she's like 12. wow but it's
00:09:43.280
like when you ask girls i mean who here wants nine kids yeah no no i don't really wouldn't mind yeah no
00:09:48.640
i would have you would have nine kids really have you had one yet no but have the one first
00:09:53.440
and then come back to me no i don't even need to have the one like i've already looked after
00:09:57.600
children and no i mean no child labor child child labor no no no no it's nothing like that
00:10:04.800
it's nothing it's worse it's like i don't know a half thousand times worse when are my bodies built
00:10:10.160
for that it is built for that but i don't know if you would go nine times for that but it's it's
00:10:14.080
interesting because the conversation you guys are having now that's like a modern conversation
00:10:18.400
because if i said that to my grandma she would be like yeah no more than nine so it's kind of it's
00:10:25.680
kind of just it's it's a testament of the times definitely yeah i think i i feel like women really
00:10:33.280
wanna well there's a lot of people who actually want to just work so i think they're thinking that
00:10:38.320
they don't want to have that many kids just so that they can still have that freedom and that
00:10:42.960
flexibility um and there's a lot of women who actually don't even want kids as well and there
00:10:49.040
is a study that said 80 of women want children so the majority of women do want kids i think it's
00:10:54.960
yeah because if i've had girls come on the show and they'll say oh i don't want kids and then my next
00:10:58.960
question is well what if it was with this guy and there's always some say it because they they're with
00:11:04.800
someone that doesn't want kids or they just feel like they can't be a mother or they can't get the
00:11:08.240
guy they want to have kids with that's true and so it's almost like a cope now i don't i don't want
00:11:14.000
i mean some girls really don't but it's i don't think it's a large percentage of women yeah i wonder
00:11:19.360
how old those women are as well the women who say that they they don't i'd be interested to find a
00:11:24.000
woman like mid 30s plus it's usually a cope in my yeah i actually i want to do a panel with single
00:11:29.920
childless women over the age of 55 yeah it's hard to recruit for that though so if the comments want to
00:11:34.880
help me in london that's specific of a panel but just to get their point of view because i feel like
00:11:42.000
around like 50s women get more based a little bit where they kind of are not like you still
00:11:47.440
get the 40 year old saying oh i'm gonna have three kids like when
00:11:53.520
