Yesterday, I received a call from Pierce Morgan's team, and they basically wanted me to go on
00:00:08.860
a show with Pierce Morgan, and I was really nervous.
00:00:14.240
I got to be honest with you guys, because I was like, I have a day to prep.
00:00:19.680
I didn't know at the time what the topic was going to be, and I thought, should I take
00:00:30.560
I'm a huge fan of Pierce Morgan, so I'm going to take the interview, and we're going to
00:00:36.960
So 24 hours, I go from just living my life to being invited on to Pierce Morgan.
00:00:43.260
So this morning, this morning, I started, what did you say?
00:00:51.160
I started, I started my day, oh shoot, hold on, I'm trying to look at the chat.
00:00:56.160
But I started my day, and they call me, and they say that we're going to do topics around
00:01:02.040
feminism, why women shouldn't vote, and banning divorce.
00:01:08.920
I really think we should ban divorce, and I really, yeah, I was like, this sounds perfect.
00:01:16.640
So let me, so I'm going to react to my time on Pierce Morgan.
00:01:19.680
I'm still in the same outfit, so you can see this literally just happened.
00:01:25.680
So I get on the, um, the show, and I've never been in his set before, but this room
00:01:37.400
Like, I thought this was going to be this huge newsroom, but it's really not that big.
00:01:45.320
I said, Sir Pearl Davis has racked up a legion of online followers and plenty of breathless
00:01:49.260
newspaper coverage by sharing her incendiary views on modern feminism.
00:01:53.520
The New York Post, I will say now they've recently started adding in my first name.
00:01:59.500
And in my opinion, the reporters, not, not Pierce's team, but they, they're just doing
00:02:05.380
that because they're trying to like leak out more information about me and my family.
00:02:10.040
Now they're like, cause you know, when I got on the internet, I made the decision to go
00:02:15.680
by my middle name because I didn't want my family to get involved.
00:02:18.520
But some of these leftist reporters are ruthless, ruthless.
00:02:24.880
And you know, everyone's called me Pearl for years.
00:02:28.840
So she tapped into genuine female pushback to the excesses of wokery or is she just an
00:02:35.160
But first, let's take a look at the clip that sent her viral.
00:02:43.000
Everyone, this is my number one, um, this is my number one critique, pushback, Pearl, you're
00:02:56.660
I don't even think you guys understand how much I believe women shouldn't vote.
00:03:00.820
Like, I don't even, guys, this I will not walk back on.
00:03:11.160
I could maybe get behind net taxpayers, property owners, something like that.
00:03:17.180
But as a whole, should the majority of women vote?
00:03:24.780
And I would like to say, so I didn't know what clip they were going to do.
00:03:28.400
Now, you guys have seen some trap interviews I've been on.
00:03:31.600
So I'm kind of like, I don't know what to expect.
00:03:41.120
So if you, I'm thinking of my face here, but before when they're like, this clip, I'm
00:03:51.280
Insane, because I don't think women should vote.
00:03:56.060
If anything, this is probably my most extreme opinion.
00:04:07.100
So your average wife has slept with over five people.
00:04:10.320
95% of women are not virgins on their wedding days.
00:04:22.680
I thought they were going to keep playing the video.
00:04:27.440
So when they cut right to me, I was like, oh shit.
00:04:31.700
Because I had a whole explanation for why women shouldn't vote.
00:04:44.480
Joslyn alongside political journalist Ava Santini.
00:04:46.820
He was nodding furiously along there to everything she heard.
00:05:02.140
Now, you know, how can you be a fan of anything everyone says?
00:05:10.860
Because they'll be like, do you believe everything?
00:05:16.500
You know, it's like, if you transcripted my whole life,
00:05:21.340
there's probably things I've said I disagree with.
00:05:23.880
Like, this whole idea that if you're a fan of someone,
00:05:31.700
The first video I saw of Tate was him doing a cheating party.
00:05:38.660
You know, I know they're on like the religious thing now.
00:05:42.400
But when I first like caught his content, it was not like that.
00:05:45.960
He was literally having a party where he like cheated in front of his girlfriend.
00:05:55.160
Overall, I think he's been an absolutely phenomenal for young men.
00:06:08.500
Okay, look, you're talking about women predominantly.
00:06:13.320
And your view is that modern feminism is deeply flawed.
00:06:16.760
I would argue a lot of your proposals, like taking the vote away from women,
00:06:23.940
Why would you want to remove just from yourself the right...
00:06:26.780
Okay, so I had some bullet points that I didn't go over.
00:06:33.240
Well, what happened was I had the same view, right?
00:06:39.980
I found out that only 5% of women wanted the right to vote.
00:06:43.360
And I couldn't figure out, like, why would women not...
00:06:48.820
Because they'd be conditioned by men to think that they shouldn't have a vote.
00:06:53.100
But, you know, I started reading their writings, right?
00:06:55.440
And what I found out was that the reason a lot of women advocated for it was because...
00:07:00.260
So let me say, in 1870, a group of distinguished women collected 15,000 signatures
00:07:11.280
Many other petitions followed by 1915, hundreds of thousands of women had joined the anti-movement.
00:07:19.020
The United States was founded as a limited suffrage republic, not as a universal suffrage democracy,
00:07:26.600
which even the ancient Greeks said was nothing more than 51% oppressing 49% or the tyranny of the majority.
00:07:36.660
The original voting rights were only granted to adult male-led owners.
00:07:46.340
The vote was so unpopular with women that women's rights activists began blocking referendums.
00:08:09.020
The vote was so unpopular with women that women's rights activists began blocking referendums,
00:08:17.220
They wouldn't even let women vote on whether they wanted voting rights because the few times they did,
00:08:24.200
The anti-suffraget movement was far more popular with women.
00:08:29.620
This was written out of history textbooks by feminist activists in the Gender Studies Department.
00:08:36.060
The U.S. was founded as a limited suffrage republic, not a universal suffrage democracy.
00:08:51.760
People argue that they think women should vote because they believe in freedom, liberty, and democracy.
00:08:57.580
But in only 100 years of women voting, we have gotten a bigger government with far less liberty
00:09:03.720
because women vote for safety and security over freedom.
00:09:07.840
Anti-suffrage women argued that they enjoyed a lot of privilege and protection granted by men
00:09:16.420
that they would lose if they became a voting bloc.
