Pearl - Living Proof That Celibacy Makes You Awkward

00:00:00.000 and it might sound selfish but also i think it's okay to be selfish when you're in your

00:00:03.440 young years in your 20s like what if i want to be able to do whatever i want to do what up guys

00:00:07.840 welcome to my reaction series so in gen z women we are seeing an increase in women that have never

00:00:14.160 had boyfriends at an older and older age and today we are going to hear from a woman who claims that

00:00:20.000 she is 25 and has never had a boy and she is going to explain it so let's go here i'm turning 25 next

00:00:27.280 week and i've never had a boyfriend and i feel like with this british vogue article coming out

00:00:30.800 i have a lot to say so often when i say i've never had a boyfriend the british vogue article is

00:00:35.040 saying is having a boyfriend embarrassing so again we're gonna get with her um she's a mid

00:00:41.360 not an upper mid i'd put her at a low i'd say a solid mid young mid um hoop earrings like she

00:00:49.280 heavy makeup doesn't seem not like promiscuous so let's let's see her explain it why and i get

00:00:55.520 i think it's usually long-term situationships and women don't need as much attention because

00:00:59.520 we get the validation from social media so we don't need it from like one man as much sympathy

00:01:03.920 card i get the how could no one ever dated you like oh my god like that's so that sucks i bet

00:01:10.160 she's gonna find a way to blame the men and say oh i don't want to date them which is true to some

00:01:14.240 extent uh there are tons of men i'm sure she's turning down however it doesn't change the fact

00:01:19.360 that the men she wants aren't picking her when really it's all about autonomy and having a choice

00:01:24.400 like i could have a boyfriend if i wanted no i'm not trying to be girl no that's true she's 25

00:01:28.640 like i mean when you're that age yeah go older and uglier they'll do it hockey but like i have

00:01:34.720 said no to multiple men in my life not to say i don't want one but on my totem pole of things that

00:01:39.760 are most important to me yeah gen z women rank men seventh in importance having a boyfriend has

00:01:45.840 always come last and some people may think this is untraditional actually a lot of people in my

00:01:50.080 close life look down upon me for this reason thinking when is she gonna find a boyfriend

00:01:54.960 when is she gonna settle down for me like 35 i mean that's when all women do it's always been

00:02:01.360 i have the power to do whatever i want and letting go of that freedom is scary to me

00:02:06.640 yeah and that's and that's what i try to explain it's not necessarily that women are bad people

00:02:10.960 it's that we enjoy having the freedom to do whatever we want because as a person people crave

00:02:16.400 the like not being controlled people don't like living with like a thumb over their head not

00:02:21.360 saying men always do that but that's like the perception right and when you marry somebody

00:02:26.720 there is a level of freedom that both parties are generally giving up um anyways long story short so

00:02:34.080 now she's gonna um she's gonna want to stay single and use her youth on herself and get

00:02:40.480 into all the free parties all the free events because there she's a certain level of attractiveness

00:02:45.280 she's gonna get into a lot of doors that she would have to turn down if she had a boyfriend and if

00:02:49.120 it's the right person in the right relationship you won't have to let go of that many freedoms

00:02:53.200 but it's also about compromise and like there are things you'd have to give up i can't just drop

00:02:57.040 everything and leave the country and it's like a time thing you know what if she wants to travel

00:03:01.280 one weekend or spend it with her friend relationships require a certain amount of

00:03:05.040 time a week you're spending together drop of a hat if i have someone else to consider and it might

00:03:09.120 sound selfish but also i think it's okay to be selfish when you're in your young years in your

00:03:12.960 your 20s like what if i want to be able to do whatever i want to do god forbid i don't think

00:03:19.560 it's lame to have never had a boyfriend and you know what i actually don't have a problem i don't

00:03:23.480 think it makes me right as long as you can pay for it but usually our independence somebody else has

00:03:28.440 to pay for and it's usually a simp the family um the friend zone someone else is paying for this

00:03:36.720 independence because most women are not independent i think i've met like maybe one or two women that

00:03:41.100 aren't reliant on the men in their life less of a person sometimes i've gotten gotten comments like

00:03:45.860 what do you know you've never been in a relationship babe don't look down upon me

00:03:50.720 because i've never been in a relationship because you know how many friendships that have lasted

00:03:53.580 since the age of two for me yeah but it's different and i'm sure she i'd ask her what's

00:03:58.920 your longest situation ship do you know how many boys that i have tried to date do you know how

00:04:02.940 many times i've been burnt like i know a lot and i think i got pumped and dumped she said because

00:04:08.700 again sixes get ghosted the hardest it i don't write the rules of the game i just tell you what

00:04:14.880 they are um okay that's the part that annoys me the most is people looking down upon me for

00:04:19.740 never having experienced a real boyfriend girlfriend relationship that doesn't mean

00:04:25.120 i don't know the green and red flags to look for they're not mature at all and then i haven't seen

00:04:28.580 at all so if you're anything like me and i've never found love i also babes like i'm a hopeless

00:04:34.060 romantic just because i haven't found it doesn't mean i know and usually what happens is the

00:04:37.340 hopeless romantics watch too many like disney movies so they think you know they think love

00:04:42.620 in this relationship a lot of trad cons kind of like they paint it as this thing that's going to

00:04:46.660 change so much uh but really it doesn't you're the same person so if you're an unhappy person

00:04:52.380 single you're going to be unhappy in a relationship if you're a happy person single you'll be happy

00:04:57.120 in a relationship um assuming it's like the right one on it i just have to be ready for it and that's

00:05:02.820 something i'm working for looking towards in there you guys seen this trend in gen z women

00:05:06.500 um the younger ones uh pushing it off uh further and further and further if you have put it in the

00:05:12.140 comments um but yeah I just think there's a really bad stigma around like oh my god you didn't write

00:05:17.220 a boyfriend what's wrong with you I I think the stigma is going away I mean I think every year

00:05:22.820 like I didn't feel like I matured as a person until my mid to late 20s I think a lot of life

00:05:31.100 decisions for me like delayed things and i think gen z's it's going to be even later where um you

00:05:38.700 know gen z's not moving out of their parents house they're not getting into real relationships um

00:05:44.780 they're not getting houses neither are millennials but i i would say young millennials and gen z i'm

00:05:50.460 two months away from gen z i'm barely a millennial and um i i think our generation did not become

00:05:58.380 adults um until late like i think millennials kind of did it in their mid-30s early to mid-30s

00:06:04.780 gen z i i think it's going to be mid-30s because i think every year marriage houses all the big

00:06:11.580 stuff is just going to keep getting pushed off with every generation i don't see any indication

00:06:16.220 this trend is going to go a different way like why does something why does something have to be

00:06:20.140 wrong with me there doesn't have to be anything wrong with me i don't know well because good

00:06:24.700 products get bought so generally speaking either your standards are too high or something's off

00:06:30.140 you're crazy um and you can get a cute guy like i i'd say she's cute enough to get a good guy so

00:06:36.220 then they're going to be like what's wrong in the inside um and you know there's stuff wrong

00:06:40.220 with all of us uh but you know so it just is what it is anyways guys can you let me know what you

00:06:46.780 think in the comments have you seen this trend of gen c women pushing off relationships and

00:06:51.660 adulthood in general along with millennials make sure you like the video and please subscribe to

00:06:56.460 the channel i love you guys and i'll see you next time
