00:00:00.000
they'd be married by that they'll be married if it was no i would not marry in zimbabwe i'm sorry
00:00:04.400
never but it sounds like that would be better right what's the alternative you know what i
00:00:13.840
mean it's like we it's like you either stay together as a family or you bring random men
00:00:18.320
into your kids lives or they bring random women no both correct i think both ways you know um
00:00:25.680
so i'm just the situation is a you know for someone that this is zimbabwe i would think
00:00:30.720
that you're married and have a husband that has you know kids just with you but it seems like you
00:00:35.200
just ended up in a situation just like the one before like your circumstances your parents
00:00:40.560
circumstances exactly that's the thing i didn't want that to happen to me but you know when
00:00:45.600
you feel like you're going you're repeating the cycle it's like whoa why didn't you break the
00:00:50.480
cycle then how can i break the cycle i can't work on it by myself you can only do so much
00:00:55.360
you say you can only do are you not responsible for your life since you i am responsible for my
00:01:00.320
life and i choose i can pick and choose what i want to do for my life right yeah you can choose
00:01:04.880
to break the cycle yeah and i can i can choose to make sure that my children don't go through
00:01:08.640
certain things right so that's what i'm going to do if i feel like certain things of some person
00:01:14.480
you're gonna not put your kids through certain things by putting them at every single statistical
00:01:18.800
disadvantage you possibly could i would rather they have a better future but now they're more
00:01:24.800
like i agree they're more likely to go to prison they're more likely to be in a mental institution
00:01:32.320
this is the thing i've done hundreds of these shows like hundreds like i've literally interviewed
00:01:36.240
hundreds of women every woman thinks their kid's the exception but every adult you talk to will talk
0.99
00:01:40.480
about how much it hurt that their parents weren't together of course it's gonna hurt it will right but
00:01:45.520
that's what i'm saying like it's not about you guys anymore and i'm not really even talking about
00:01:49.120
you personally i don't know you guys situations but like the whole point is you're dissing a culture
00:01:53.440
that that talks about keeping families together they don't keep families together they be you'll be
00:01:57.920
out your auntie is that uncle that uncle that uncle different uncles no they do keep they're sleeping
00:02:02.720
with different uncles but they all come together and say hi praise the lord hi family yeah because
00:02:06.480
they understand that they understand that personal life is personal life but family life is more
00:02:12.240
important yeah but i think people need to be realistic and be like no it's not about being
00:02:16.320
realistic it's about being practical for your family if you stay with your wife you stay with
00:02:21.280
your partner your kids have a better chance in life okay let me ask you a question yeah let's go
00:02:25.600
if you had a daughter right now and she got married to my man yeah and he's cheating another
1.00
00:02:31.200
next woman would you ask her to stay if she's married yeah you would ask your daughter if she's married
0.92
00:02:37.360
yes but why okay let's say he's abusing her physically would you ask her no that's abused
0.90
00:02:42.640
physically she should go to the police and get them and arrested you wouldn't do nothing about it
0.99
00:02:46.560
no as a zimbabwe man no no no as a zimbabwe man i know they protect their family that you wouldn't sit
00:02:57.920
back and take that you know i'll protect my family yeah that protects me i'll protect my family yeah
00:03:03.120
but if it's just cheating without physical abuse she made that choice to be with that person yeah
0.95
00:03:08.880
if they committed those vows in front of god as a christian i believe then you should stay and work
00:03:13.840
it out she'll come to my my house we'll do counseling between you two and we'll work it out but what if
0.89
00:03:19.040
he doesn't change and well she she made that choice to be with that person because as long as he doesn't
00:03:25.360
leave modern women pick guys modern women pick guys that cheat they pick guys that everybody knows
0.98
00:03:32.480
cheats they pick guys with kids with other women and then they're surprised when he cheats what did
00:03:37.040
you think was going to happen every man modern okay every man no it's the men you pick no it's all
00:03:43.040
the men no it's the men you pick not all men cheat it's like why why are the okay why are the men that
00:03:49.440
cheat picking you i don't know so it says more about you than it does about them because there's
00:03:56.320
a lot of guys that don't cheat there's a lot of guys that are loyal if they're not picking you then
00:04:00.000
you have to ask why oh and then let's not forget they don't they don't pick us we've got a selection
00:04:05.280
we've got an option plenty on the table and we pick what we've got so you okay if you say that so you
00:04:12.080
you came from a step-parent household and you made the choice to put your kids into a step-parent
00:04:18.400
household where's the step-parent you you said your partner's two other kids yeah but i chose to
00:04:24.480
i chose to accept them because i was i went through certain things when i was younger you're pretty much
00:04:29.440
putting yourself in the same situation you made that choice i would i would imagine you coming from
00:04:33.520
a choice where it didn't work out between a step-parent you wouldn't want that for your children but you
00:04:38.000
made the choice to go into that same situation and you didn't even marry there's no commitment
00:04:43.040
i mean in a way i feel like there's nothing wrong with accepting someone else's kids there's nothing
00:04:48.320
wrong there's nothing wrong i know there's nothing wrong with that but for you for your situation
00:04:54.240
just looking at where you're coming from why would you make that choice because my stepmom didn't love
00:05:00.240
me so i'm going to show love to another child and i love them extremely but what if your partner
00:05:05.920
doesn't work out then you leave yeah then you leave yeah it doesn't matter but i'll still have
00:05:09.280
them in my life no matter what i always make sure they're okay you know it's not the same
00:05:14.080
no it is this it is literally the same you're telling me if you guys break up and he picks someone
00:05:21.280
new that you're gonna have the same relationship with the yeah they're still my children's brother
00:05:26.800
and sisters do you get what i mean so they're still that bond no matter what i will always love those
00:05:31.120
kids yeah yeah but his point is that you see the problems that came with that situation and you still
00:05:35.520
picked it so a lot of times like as women we complain about situations that we picked and then
00:05:40.000
we we get what surprised that like we're in the the same situation that we picked it's like it like
00:05:46.480
it's like a guy will cheat on us when we're dating then we'll have a kid and then whine about cheating
0.80
00:05:50.160
well then why why'd you have a kid oh so do you expect us to get rid of the child i'm not i'm not
00:05:54.720
talking about you guys i'm saying women in general will pick men that cheat they'll know that they cheat
0.95
00:06:01.120
so oftentimes they'll get cheated on when they're dating and then they have a kid together and then
00:06:05.600
whine about the cheating but he cheated before so why is it now a problem after you have children so
00:06:10.080
is that when you know the man cheats or when you don't know the man cheats i'm saying like women
00:06:16.480
will go after entertainers they'll go after rappers athletes and then get i'm not talking about you but
00:06:21.520
they'll get shocked that he cheats and but it's like you went for that type of guy they'll go for the
00:06:26.560
best looking guy and then get surprised when he cheats but even the best looking guys even if you
00:06:32.000
don't get with them they can still cheat yeah they're trying to get with them and they cheat they
00:06:36.880
think most women one out of three men are sexless so one out of three men are either virgins or having
00:06:42.080
had sex in the past year you find 20 only 24 percent of men you guys find attractive 80 percent of men you
00:06:47.760
find ugly so if women pick cheaters it's because they go for a guy that's out of their league
1.00
00:06:52.880
because women that are fours fives and sixes sleeps with eight nines and tens maybe get a
1.00
00:06:58.560
kid off of him and then he cheats because they're not on the same level oh no i'm not talking about
00:07:04.080
you but i'm talking let me know i'm not talking about you guys but i'm saying like women find 80
0.87
00:07:13.520
of men is ugly most men aren't getting laid like that so if you're getting cheaters it's because you pick
0.94
00:07:18.080
cheaters i agree i do that's my weakness as you it's a little adventures i can't lie
0.98
00:07:38.640
they drink too much they don't know how to hold the job down they don't have that woman
1.00
00:07:42.240
auntie auntie auntie they're sleeping with everybody yeah they don't cheat generalizing
00:07:45.280
a whole nation once they like once they work on how long have you how much time have you spent in
00:07:50.160
zimbabwe um like 10 10 years okay you spent 10 years there yeah you came when you're 10 here yeah
00:07:59.600
i used to that's cool enough and you knew a lot about like cheating under the age of 10. when i
00:08:03.760
yeah when i saw quite a lot that i will not even bring up no no stop saran wow because i'm going
00:08:11.120
to get done for that um no we don't want you getting canceled i'm not bringing a gossip over here no
00:08:18.960
but um yeah when even when i went back like i was asking my grandma about certain things like
00:08:23.600
relationships and that and you know because i was preparing myself for for marriage for the
00:08:27.040
traditional marriage and stuff and i was like okay grandma like you know if your man is cheating on
00:08:32.880
you what should you do hey you have to stay wow if the if the man is beating you you have to stay
00:08:39.920
i was like oh wow yes and you know they all gather like in a group and they're telling you oh you know
00:08:45.440
you should do this for your mind do this i was okay so what did the man do for me they have nothing to
00:08:49.920
say the man usually provides he protects and provides what is it protecting um if someone breaks into
00:08:56.960
your house in the house i'm not the one that's gonna go outside to to beat the person because the man is
00:09:01.440
not home because he's out here cheating and drinking true hey you're you're saying all the zim men are
1.00
00:09:07.760
cheating and drinking most of these men if you don't know about zimbabweans yeah i do what are you
0.69
00:09:13.840
talking we have we have that you know we got that i know my old my old my old i've had multiple people
00:09:20.320
work for me that were from zimbabwe there's a stigma none of them were alcoholics no what's happening
00:09:26.400
right now is that the the girls are spreading the the loudest girls are spreading this false
1.00
00:09:31.280
narrative and saying that zimbabwe men are cheating you just went home to your elders right and what
00:09:36.560
did they tell you if something happens you stay you chose not to listen to advice of your elders so who
00:09:41.360
do you go for for council in your life i've got nobody that i go to council for in my life i don't
00:09:45.280
think that that's that's uh anyone who lives on earth needs someone to go for for guidance if you're
00:09:50.160
just living your life like this then you know your actions do reflect i don't think we can trust your
0.95
00:09:54.880
opinion that all zimbabwe men are trash well you can ask other women that are not zimbabweans
0.97
00:10:00.480
which are because i'm sure there's other cultures that i mean there's other and they'll say that
1.00
00:10:04.400
zimbabwe men are trash but it's crazy because yeah yeah you guys demonize traditional cultures when
0.98
00:10:11.040
traditional cultures have better outcomes they have more children they have happier women they have
1.00
00:10:14.720
less stds they have less abortions like every statistical outcome that you can look at is better from
00:10:20.000
traditional relationships i agree on the abortion part yeah that one that's the one i agree with
0.91
00:10:25.360
