what do you guys think the biggest thing that men don't understand about women is and that women
00:00:06.260
don't understand about men oh maybe i feel like i as a woman don't understand how men portray their
00:00:19.940
emotions i find it hard to like if there was like uh i don't know how to explain it like
00:00:26.100
wait come back to me i need to word it in my head before i actually say it out loud is it is it
00:00:31.860
sometimes like you don't understand like does your boyfriend do something where no no no so like
00:00:36.800
you gotta come back to me i need to word it i need to word it i need to word it that's fine
00:00:43.000
you you was yeah sorry to cut you so you you when you were saying that i was kind of thinking wrong
00:00:47.920
i know she's gonna say something about what men being upset and sharing their emotions like yeah
00:00:52.320
yeah yeah i feel like you're okay with me yeah yeah i can see where you're getting with it still
00:00:56.320
and that's something what i something what i would have said as well like in life do you know i mean
00:01:00.300
men men tend to not you know show their emotions as much as the alpha thing yeah in a guy yeah but
00:01:06.600
i think women like a guy to be more open and show them yeah yeah you know i'm saying but i think as
00:01:12.520
men i think as how we grew in it some men don't grow with their dads yeah had mummy around so man had
00:01:18.000
to take that role and being the stronger person do you know what i mean yeah so if dad was around
00:01:23.000
and man was seeing man upset then man might be a bit more open but i don't know my my circumstances
00:01:27.880
are different my dad weren't around yeah understand but my dad was there yeah you know what i mean but
00:01:31.760
my dad my dad passed away um during so and so i can't say but yeah that and um after that it's like
00:01:39.700
rah i never had a relationship with him but i still remember my dad and i remember all the things but i wish
00:01:44.140
he maybe was there at the start with my growing because it might have made me a different guy now
00:01:49.240
taught you things you didn't know i'm saying and and the one thing was emotions because a lot of us
00:01:54.240
keep boiling it up and we get angry and we don't want to show it because we feel weak yeah i mean but
00:01:59.600
it's not a dickheading to cry you understand or to to be open and show your emotions you know i mean
00:02:06.140
i've had to learn the hard way in life with certain things anyway so i'm only talking from myself you
00:02:11.660
know i mean i i was one of those guys who who built up the anger and wanted to just let out with bare
00:02:17.100
shouting and script but not crying and but then i learned that crying is is another healing it's
00:02:21.960
natural yeah it's a healing i feel like people like you coming and talking about um emotions being so
00:02:28.200
acceptable men is really important and i feel like it is you're so right like there's such a stigma
00:02:34.000
around men having like being able to be emotional or have like down days or but i feel like now
00:02:42.840
there's more and more positive role models coming out and who are kind of supporting that i think
00:02:47.880
there should be a stigma around men being emotional yeah you know yeah yeah i have to because i think
00:02:53.820
we need strong men in society you know what i'm not i'm not saying like boil it boil it up and don't
00:02:57.560
talk to anybody but i actually like don't think men should be overly emotional especially to women
00:03:02.160
because women i feel like don't like it long term you know it's good you know so let me just cut
00:03:05.820
and i was going to say something like conscious to what you're saying that i think definitely in
00:03:10.400
this day and age a lot of men who've been like just brought up by their mothers single parents
00:03:14.900
but their moms like they're very emotional yes and they've got that feminine traits because obviously
00:03:21.840
they're getting bang up by them yeah so even when you were saying about the man obviously i don't
00:03:27.460
that's new school business to me that man making accounts to hit yeah that's that's adulting and
00:03:33.420
i'm thinking but that's kind of girl business to me in my head i'm thinking that's girly business
00:03:36.700
yeah but that's nowadays mans are doing all these kind of girly yeah of course antics and so i agree
00:03:43.840
with pearl on that one you can still be really really masculine but just be like open to being
00:03:49.300
a little bit in touch with your emotions as well yeah but i didn't i mean it's a weird one
00:03:55.700
because masculine well yes if you're being like the masculine and men and old school men
00:04:02.660
it's you know really showing your emotions like that because that's just a man that's just
00:04:07.820
it doesn't mean you need to be like wearing your heart in your sleep all the time but like
00:04:11.140
just being okay with not being okay i think there's a time right i think i think society brainwashes
00:04:17.180
men to be women and i think i think we always we always like it's really weird because once you
00:04:22.020
see this you can't unsee it it's always like the feminine way to do thing is always this
00:04:25.680
assumed to be right so like how women deal with problems that's like assumed to be correct in
00:04:30.780
society like crying being emotional like that's assumed to be the right way to deal with it so
00:04:35.300
it's like we have a generation of men that have been told to be women where and it's like it's it's
00:04:40.420
really because the psychologists are mostly women the teachers are mostly women so it's like they
00:04:45.800
raise men to be women but like the way men usually dealt with problems at least historically was
00:04:50.760
aggression but like aggression is seen as bad like men fighting in the school yard that's seen as like a
00:04:55.360
negative thing i like you pearly man but you know this is what they they they paint they paint people
00:05:01.300
that are like that talk for themselves that have got confidence as as a toxic trait as well in like
00:05:06.540
social media people that uh confident confident and talk up and have the opinions and have their
00:05:11.960
strong viewpoints they create that kind of guy as toxic do you know what i mean so yeah cocky
00:05:17.300
arrogant toxic so a lot of a lot of guys don't don't are scared to be on true self because they're
00:05:22.560
scared to get cancelled because women love cocky toxic men and i promise you from doing these shows
00:05:28.340
oh i promise you yeah it's always like the girl like sometimes though like a girl will be arguing
00:05:32.800
with a guy and saying he's wrong the whole show but after she's flirting with him and i'm like
00:05:36.580
and so it's like it's like like girls say they don't like those traits but i think they genuinely do
00:05:43.940
people like confident people yeah yeah and so if you're confident people are going to like that
00:05:48.740
and you know what i think with this whole emotion thing these is everyone's just overly emotional
00:05:53.600
yeah way too yeah but yeah it's about keeping your emotions in check balance not being too overly happy
00:06:01.280
or too overly sad you know having that yeah it's just about balance yeah yeah that's where i find it
00:06:06.440
and again a lot of men are going on to fair enough women are more emotional we know this you know
00:06:11.580
but nowadays a lot of men are going over to that emotional side as well in a sense to me man needs
00:06:18.060
to kind of pull back i think you can be emotional without being feminine though as a man like you can
00:06:23.180
be a little bit you can just be like accept them move on deal with it in your way without having to
00:06:27.980
like block it out and hide it and or be feminine i don't know like a lot of some of these emotions
00:06:33.580
like they don't really benefit or help situations and that's why as a man we're not really that
00:06:41.880
emotional because it doesn't make that much difference how being emotional help a man survive
00:06:46.260
historically it won't it won't exactly it won't it's going to get you in trouble for anything
00:06:51.660
um i don't agree to a stent i hear what you man are saying um i won't personally say being emotional
00:06:58.420
when i was saying being emotional is be emotional around around everyone there's certain people to
00:07:03.080
be emotional around yeah do you feel me like if it's my brother my family people i'm close to me
00:07:07.880
they can see that i'm not saying cry around everyone i'm not trying to tell them i'm be a baby
00:07:11.860
you understand i'm just saying with the emotional thing you gotta know who and who you're being
00:07:16.680
emotional around so i hear what pearly saying about yeah i feel like they should put a stigma in it
00:07:21.100
but i get you but at the same time if the man ain't showing their emotions yeah when are you going
00:07:26.660
to them when someone's dead or when something's happening exactly that's right you know i'm saying
00:07:30.640
it's not that's not life like but it's always been like that is to be honest like if we look at if we
00:07:36.160
look at humans throughout history like from like like like an evolutionary perspective you know like
00:07:40.380
10 percent of um the our ancestors before what's it called like in the hunter-gatherer days literally died
00:07:46.480
from um murder so like how would being emotional help you survive back then when 10 percent of the
00:07:50.880
people were dying for murder isn't that crazy so so it's like like men don't have any biological
00:07:55.440
reason to be emotional so again we're women we have a biological reason to be emotional because
00:08:00.120
if we um got like if we bonded with the guy like then we would get his resources right so we have
00:08:06.720
biological reasons why we're more emotional than men where men don't so and while we are in 2023 and
00:08:13.440
it is like a modern world we don't get rid of our biology so by encouraging men to be emotional
00:08:17.720
it's like we're encouraging men to be women wow no no i don't agree with that i don't believe
00:08:22.280
that's what i'm saying that's what's going on you know i can't agree with that you have to look
00:08:26.280
around because that's what's going on crying crying for the right reasons is a healing bro yeah you've
00:08:31.080
got to cry to the right people you understand yeah yeah so where where you're telling me if i cry it
00:08:36.120
makes me weak or i've cried because now i've got over but she didn't say weak though no but i'm
00:08:41.880
saying some people look here as a different oh yeah but i like i mean you can't tell me
00:08:48.680
personally this sounds bad you know this sounds bad but like i do think men that like cry are weaker
00:08:58.120
in general yeah no because i know what she's saying i think about disagree okay but wait wait
00:09:03.000
hear me out hear me out hear me out hear me out as to why if we have guy a that cries 10 times a
00:09:07.400
month and guy b that cries zero times a month who's stronger like i just think like we we i know
00:09:11.880
there's exceptions but it depends on the situation that question what she just said yeah the guy say
00:09:18.040
it again let me answer exactly if guy a cries 10 times a month and guy b cries zero times a month
00:09:23.960
cool who's strong i go gym every fucking day that guy there cannot do me nothing i'm definitely
00:09:30.520
stronger than this done so there's nothing to do with oh whether i cry no no but i'm saying it don't
00:09:35.880
matter don't make you weaker if you cry talk into your mic oh sorry it doesn't make you weaker if
00:09:40.200
you're crying this is what i'm trying to show the people then do you understand it's not a weak thing
00:09:44.520
when you're crying it's a release thing it's it's it's what's happened and what you're going through
00:09:49.320
some emotions everyone's got feelings do you understand what i think i think i agree with
00:09:52.920
you i think you can go for yourself there's not like we don't need to it doesn't need to be one
00:09:56.360
extreme or the other it doesn't need to be but i think men are human men have feelings right and
00:10:01.560
if they don't let them out and it's not saying that's gonna punch up the place they need to go on
00:10:06.360
like instagram live and do it in front of everyone or like they need to do it every single time
00:10:10.840
they're out but if they don't they're gonna bottle up those feelings they're gonna get worse and worse
00:10:14.360
and then but suicide rates are so high with men and this is why i would actually say i would actually
00:10:21.560
say that suicide rates are high with men because women ruin them financially and take away their
00:10:26.680
children in the legal system and it's legal for them to do so i would say yeah like they zero out men
00:10:32.440
at about 45 when they've wasted 20 or you not wasted but they've spent 20 years of their life building
00:10:38.440
themselves up having a family and women just say i'm not feeling it today i'm going to take your
00:10:42.520
children and have your i would say that's the real reason that's suicide and we have a society of of
00:10:48.520
women telling men how to be like teaching men how to be women because it's like again at what point
00:10:55.240
is the man like is the crying enough right at what point is he a strong man you know and i just think
00:11:01.720
it's lying like the girls and no offense no offense to you not personally but but i feel like as women
00:11:06.760
like it sounds nice to say yeah cry to me however they do studies on this stuff and women lose
00:11:12.280
respect for men when they see you cry and they lose attraction for you so it sounds nice for me
00:11:17.960
to say yes cry in front of women but that's what i was going to say being on as many of you know i was
