That's all right, you can disagree, it's all right.
00:00:15.840
I think otherwise you're just gonna be going back and forth
00:00:27.040
So why don't men get to like sign off on child support?
00:00:29.460
Personally, in Pearl's world, it would all be banned.
00:00:34.120
why don't the pro-choice people give men an out
00:00:43.160
if I do think that they should have a say legally,
00:00:53.760
if you're gonna be legally putting a stop to me
00:01:01.140
then legally, you have to be involved 50% legally.
00:01:07.140
Because if you stop me from getting this abortion,
00:01:14.980
So if that is the only way I would see that it would be okay.
00:01:23.440
Okay, so you actually kind of want it to be equal in a way.
00:01:26.740
And you think he should be able to sign off on child support.
00:01:38.840
it's already an unequal thing that woman has to carry a baby
00:01:43.580
and go through the nine months, 10 months pregnancy,
00:01:50.960
So my opinion, men can persuade the woman or say whatever
00:01:57.260
based on the situation, but women decide on the final decision.
00:02:04.160
And you would not be for them being able to sign off
00:02:10.000
So if women have the final say, which is fine, right?
00:02:12.960
But could men then say, I don't, if you don't want to be a mother,
00:02:18.360
And if you keep the baby when he doesn't want it,
00:02:26.600
if I chose to have the baby and he doesn't want to,
00:02:37.800
I'm curious, why don't you think men should have an opinion on it?
00:02:43.700
And she never received any child support from my dad.
00:02:46.100
Oh, I didn't even realize you said that, I was asking her.
00:02:56.500
Why don't you think men should have an opinion on abortion?
00:03:05.700
Um, it's nine to 10 months and of being pregnant.
00:03:10.700
And after you have been pregnant, your body will never be the same.
00:03:19.900
That's one thing that I don't think a man has the right to challenge that really.
00:03:26.900
Um, and the second thing is that is like more of the broader discussion of women's rights.
00:03:37.100
That like statistically, um, women has less rights than men.
00:04:00.500
So this is a, this is a massive, this is a massive discussion and I'm more than happy
00:04:08.500
There's an oil rig, but I mean, women has, they have, they have been personal.
00:04:15.500
I mean, servants for men in homes for years and years and years.
00:04:30.300
I mean, they also, they also died for women by going to war and protecting us.
00:04:38.300
Women got to live in the, it was for the government too, but women still got to live in that society
00:04:46.300
But that's because we've had this discussion before.
00:04:47.300
We've spoken about men being physically stronger.
00:04:52.300
And that's probably why they do a lot more labor jobs as well, because they're physically stronger.
00:05:02.300
But when the young lady's talking about the body and then, you know, I'm saying, I'll
00:05:09.300
So basically it hasn't been the woman's choice of not becoming a doctor, becoming a lawyer.
00:05:18.300
I mean, getting, I mean, inheriting property that hasn't been the, I mean, to not have that
00:05:25.300
right, hasn't been the woman's choice up until like, um, later in time.
00:05:31.300
So I feel like we're kind of hanging on the back a little bit.
00:05:38.300
And now women are picking up, they are becoming prime ministers and they are, you know, they
00:05:47.300
And I feel that, I mean, statistically now in the world, women has less rights.
00:06:01.300
I mean, thinking about women in America, how many women are in office?
00:06:06.300
How many women do you think would want to be in office?
00:06:11.300
Like I, we're, we're a good chunk of Congress now.
00:06:14.300
Um, I don't know what percent off the top of my head, but women don't want to do the hardest
00:06:21.300
Because we don't, there's no barriers stopping us and we don't do them.
00:06:29.300
I've probably talked to more women in a lifetime than any of you have.
00:06:35.300
I mean, women do listen to women who say that they don't have these ambitions.
00:06:50.300
I would say, I would say the hardest jobs, oil rigs.
00:07:01.300
I would say what's harder is a brain surgeon, which more men are.
00:07:05.300
I mean, okay, so a really interesting thing is that I have learned that chefs, there's more male chefs as an occupation than female chefs.
00:07:20.300
But in the home, it's usually the woman that cooks.
00:07:28.300
But like, so when you sort of come to a certain level that there's more, I don't know, like prestige in that job, then, you know, it's a man.
00:07:59.300
You know, they're made for doing these building house or, you know, they go out to hunt these kind of jobs.
00:08:10.300
But it would make more sense that they're paid more if they make up the majority of workplace deaths.
00:08:15.300
So they're doing the more dangerous, hard jobs.
