Summary
In this episode, I talk about how we should be watching what people do and not what they say, and how women are being lied to about what they want to do and what they need to do. I read a tweet that reminded me of a lesson that I learned while I was in the UK.

good afternoon good evening ladies and gentlemen welcome to the just pearly things youtube channel
00:00:17.600
here on the audacity network make sure we get a one in the chat if you're having a good day today
00:00:24.280
and make sure you like the video on your way in. Okay, so today's topic, I wanted to talk about
00:00:32.280
watching what people do and not what they say. So as you guys know, I went to England and I
00:00:39.420
interviewed a thousand people about dating, relationships, and culture, and I learned a
00:00:44.480
lot of lessons in this time period. And I've really tried to focus on lessons that I have
00:00:50.760
learned in the past couple of years. But, you know, I have this app called Twitter, or they call it X
00:00:57.380
now. And sometimes this app makes me think, usually it doesn't. Let's just be honest, usually it
00:01:03.840
doesn't. But I came across this account called Nuclear, called Caudillo. And I saw a tweet that
00:01:16.640
reminded me of a lesson that I learned while I was in the UK.
1.00
00:01:22.260
So it says, women get to decide who has sex.
0.99
00:01:27.140
Women get to decide who gets to be in a relationship.
0.98
00:01:31.260
And women get to decide who gets to be born.
1.00
00:01:34.840
Women decide how much time you get with your kids.
1.00
00:01:43.620
And what, I guess what this reminded me of was the common phrase that I hear from
00:01:53.380
conservatives, tradcoms, that women are being lied to, right?
00:01:59.960
That women want to be mothers, they want to be nurturing, but we're just lied to because
1.00
00:02:08.760
And what I found when I was in England is that was not necessarily the case.
1.00
00:02:15.600
And oftentimes what you see is plausible deniability is how women get away with things and they get power.
0.88
00:02:25.940
There's a button on the screen if you don't mind.
1.00
00:02:29.140
So there's plausible deniability is how women get away with things and they get power.
1.00
00:02:34.320
And the issue is simps are always the ones to give women plausible deniability.
0.99
00:02:43.640
Guys, it's no wonder that you see testosterone levels dropping of men declining 1% a year.
00:02:50.520
The average testosterone level is half of what it was 50 years ago.
00:02:55.440
And this is one of the foundational physiological reasons why society is crumbling and in the
00:03:02.440
These women, they're getting away with murder.

0.95
00:04:20.800
the topic, I wanted to read something that I wrote about my time in England. As you guys know, I like
00:04:27.800
to read just different stories that I learned when I was in England, because I did learn a lot.
00:04:35.460
So when I first got to England, I would say I had more of a traditional conservative perspective.
00:04:42.020
So I believed in traditionalism. I believed that family was the answer. God was the answer to a
00:04:48.960
lot of our problems. And it's not necessarily that it isn't. But what I found out is that it wasn't
00:04:57.280
that simple. So conservatives like to talk a lot about how women are naturally nurturing.
0.52
00:05:05.200
Women want to be mothers and wives. Society just lied to us, and I always believed this to be true.
00:05:11.540
I went on shows and shouted about how women are being lied to. Women are naturally nurturing
1.00
00:05:17.440
and want to be mothers, but society tells us no, right? I mean, getting pregnant in high school
1.00
00:05:24.060
seems to be life-ending. There was one young woman at my high school who was a teen mom,
0.78
00:05:29.180
and I remember everyone thinking her life was over. This is what we're told, right? Women want
00:05:35.300
to be mothers, but feminism. It's clear. Women are on antidepressants if they don't have children.
1.00
00:05:41.120
Every other day, you see some old woman crying in her car about how she regrets not having children.
1.00
00:05:47.200
Women want to be mothers, but society. This is what I thought was true. Unfortunately, reality
1.00
00:05:52.840
came to crash my worldview. As you guys know, I interviewed a thousand women on
00:05:57.700
the show the pregame in England. I went to England to play volleyball and started
00:06:02.140
a show interviewing women and men about relationships on the side. The
00:06:06.840
interesting thing that happens when you interview so many people is you see
0.88
00:06:10.400
patterns in women based on age. You see women at 22 who do not care about
0.99
00:06:17.260
anyone but herself, partying in the club every weekend, being hit up on by
0.99
00:06:22.520
celebrities going to festivals, or maybe she's chasing a spot at the top law firm.
0.97
00:06:27.620
It depends on the woman. Regardless, none of her actions indicate that she wants to
00:06:32.480
be a wife or a mother, but sometimes they say, but sometimes they will say that on
00:06:38.540
a show, right? The same woman at 32 may be dating a lot more seriously. However,
00:06:43.760
you can argue that's because she's out of time and it wasn't what she truly
00:06:47.600
wanted, because you can see what people truly want to do when they have the most
00:06:52.260
choice to do any anything what we are seeing is that when we have the most
00:06:56.940
choice women are not choosing to be naturally nurturing there is a saying
0.80
00:07:01.560
that money does not change people but it reveals who they are I say it's the same
00:07:05.900
thing with freedom you cannot see what people truly want to do until they have
0.85
00:07:10.180
the freedom to do anything a hundred years ago in order to survive women had
0.95
00:07:14.760
to find a man I mean there have always been spinsters in history but we can
1.00
00:07:19.080
agree that society makes it much easier to be one today.
1.00
00:07:31.400
Women have the power to take their children with them.
1.00
00:07:34.560
Women have the power to marry whoever they want.
1.00
00:07:37.260
Women are naturally nurturing and want to be mothers, right?
0.99
00:07:40.500
So by that logic, when we have the power to do anything,
0.98
00:07:45.580
Why are women the most likely ones to abuse children?
1.00
00:07:54.660
Why do single mother homes turn out so poorly?
1.00
00:07:57.400
Why do we choose to get married at 32 rather than 22?
1.00
00:08:00.700
We have dating apps where you could hypothetically
00:08:02.880
filter out men by race, age, religion, and ethnicity.
0.97
00:08:06.360
Even overweight women get thousands of matches,
0.92
00:08:08.700
yet there's less marriages than ever before.
1.00
00:08:18.140
We have the freedom to do anything, so why are we choosing sex work?
1.00
00:08:21.900
One surprise that I found in interviewing a thousand women was just how common sex work was.
0.97
00:08:27.020
Sometimes it is not the women that you would expect. I would guess one out of five women
1.00
00:08:32.460
under the age of 35 that are a six in attractiveness or higher have engaged in some sort of
1.00
00:08:38.060
sex work. I know that sounds crazy to the average Joe, but being a sugar baby is being offered to
00:08:45.860
And if nobody knows, why wouldn't you consider it?
00:08:49.360
If women are nurturing, why are we the ones most likely
1.00
00:08:58.600
Why do women fight so hard for birth control
1.00
00:09:13.920
that don't wanna get married, but really it's women.
0.99
00:09:23.440
From what I see, most young men would still get married
00:09:29.600
in terms of giving up power in the sexual marketplace.
00:09:32.700
The average age of first marriage is rising
0.99
00:09:35.740
and it is because women are the real gatekeepers of it.
1.00
00:09:40.960
Women are not naturally nurturing, because if we were, then our choices would reflect that.
00:09:47.320
Women are not innocent victims being lied to.
0.60
00:09:50.000
We're adults making decisions on what we want to do.
00:10:00.000
It is simply watching what people do rather than what they say.
00:10:03.960
I am going to go over a couple videos that reflect the conflict of trying to cope with what we want to be true versus what is actually going on.
00:10:18.440
This is not what I wish to be true, but rather an accurate description of what I have found after interviewing a thousand women.
00:10:26.140
So what made me think of this today was I saw a video from The Daily Wire.
00:10:31.240
And The Daily Wire, I grew up watching The Daily Wire, and I think that's why I talk about this concept so much was because a lot of the ideas at one point made me think that they were true, right?
00:10:45.800
Because you would always hear that women are just being lied to.
00:10:48.960
And I came to realize that that's just a cop out.
1.00
00:10:52.460
It's just a way for women to dodge accountability
1.00
00:11:05.580
that we make decisions that come with choices and trade offs.
00:11:12.980
are just as willing to bail women out as the liberals.
00:11:27.240
It's just more kind of showing the flaws in their thinking.
00:11:35.740
Fewer and fewer people are having children these days.
00:11:37.800
I mean, the drop in people dating and getting married
00:11:42.600
Okay, so this is one, what I would say is a lie, right?
00:11:50.300
That's why, you know, and this is just based off of the women that I interviewed, right?
0.98
00:11:55.580
This could be, you can take this or leave it.
1.00
00:11:57.860
But I kept hearing that money was the reason people weren't having kids.
1.00
00:12:04.320
And women would come on the show and they would say, it's money, right?
1.00
00:12:10.480
I can't have more children because of money.
0.99
00:12:12.600
But I would look at their face, and it would be frozen with Botox.
00:12:16.920
I would look at their nails, and they would be done.
00:12:20.420
I would look at their fashion, and it would be the latest trend.
1.00
00:12:25.360
And a couple times, we had more traditional housewives that came on.
1.00
00:12:30.260
And what I found was the traditional housewives didn't have any of that stuff done
0.97
00:12:37.140
because they wanted the children more than they wanted the lifestyle.
00:12:40.220
and that's not necessarily a bad thing and i think a lot of times when we say these things
00:12:45.440
people think we're putting morality onto it but i'm never trying to it's just
00:12:50.400
some people are more selfish and some people are more selfless and so when we say oh it's the
00:12:59.620
economy i just don't really buy it anymore people feeling like they genuinely can't even afford to
00:13:06.780
have children but probably let me make sure this is on one accident more impactful not fathom the
00:13:12.560
idea girl first is head for the man it doesn't make sense you know taking a stand against the
00:13:16.980
patriarchy they should dedicate their lives to just working for the man it doesn't make sense
00:13:20.780
before we dive into this insane story make sure that you like this video subscribe sorry brad i'm
0.97
00:13:28.320
not gonna i'm not gonna plug whatever ad you got for free they gotta pay me these crotch goblins as
0.80
00:13:35.000
many people call children are getting in the way of your girl boss from the economist how motherhood
0.59
00:13:39.640
hurts careers like the priorities and the biases are so blatantly obvious okay so then what happens
00:13:45.640
is they start to blame the media but who is the media catered to who makes the consumer buying
00:13:53.640
decisions who's the one writing these articles is it which which gender is it and again this
00:14:03.800
isn't morality this isn't to dog on them but it's just asking the question
00:14:10.760
is it really the media is lying to women or is it this is how they feel
1.00
00:14:17.960
these crotch goblins as so many people call children are getting in the way of your girl
00:14:21.560
bossing not the other way around these writers and these pop psychologists could not fathom the idea
0.50
00:14:26.520
that maybe to many women your career is actually inhibiting motherhood now here's another headline
00:14:31.640
why it's okay to choose a career over kids and obviously if you don't have kids again
00:14:35.720
that's your personal prerogative but we need to talk about the cultural attitudes and how
00:14:39.160
aggressively all of okay but then this is the question who creates culture so if historically
00:14:48.440
and this is something i i just don't think you guys can come to a lot of these conclusions until
00:14:53.880
you've done a ton of interviews because it just changes your perspective and one thing
00:14:59.000
that I figured out was that traditional mothers have a tendency to tell their
00:15:04.100
daughters to go to school get an education and not to be traditional not
0.90
00:15:11.560
right not wrong I'm just saying I would interview women that were second
00:15:15.840
generation immigrants from traditional countries and so often the daughter
00:15:21.920
would say that the mother told her not to pursue a man and to pursue a career
00:15:28.880
first. So who created this culture? Where does it come from? Maybe this is how
00:15:39.320
women feel. And what happens is conservatives say, no, we don't believe them. And then
00:15:51.740
not all by the way not all women but a lot a percentage of women come out and say
00:15:57.980
hey um no we really do feel like this let's fight for abortion let's fight for all of these
00:16:05.500
let's fight to get jobs let's fight for all this stuff and pretend that we really want to be
00:16:13.260
married and in relationships but it's all just it's like fake well this has been pushed so that
00:16:20.000
is the point in showing all of this. As it always does, you know, this started with the academics
00:16:23.920
and the journalists, and it trickled down to normal women, where now, in 2024, you will often
0.96
00:16:28.640
find discourse like this. This was on Reddit six months ago. Motherhood is a trap. These men get to
00:16:34.360
explore the country, make good money, and who knows, maybe they're having affairs, while their
00:16:37.840
wives are stuck with the children, careers suffering. They have no life outside of children.
00:16:42.780
Motherhood is the biggest scam, and I'm so damn grateful I didn't fall for it. Well, that's one
00:16:49.140
to look at it a commenter on this post said i was discussing this the other day it makes zero sense
00:16:53.940
for women to want kids it ruins your body there is a significant risk of death maiming psychosis
0.99
00:17:00.340
permanent injury etc let's not forget all the things that get played off as normal like a
0.99
00:17:04.420
pisciotomy bladder control issues etc again now partially is part of this cope i'm sure right
00:17:12.580
a lot of times when older women make bad decisions they give the wrong information to younger women
00:17:18.500
yes but if i'm being honest guys based on our actions not what we say but what we do the
00:17:26.820
abortion rate is a huge one one out of three women go and get one we might think that's wrong right
00:17:33.060
whatever it doesn't matter we can't change that then we look at single motherhood rate
1.00
00:17:39.140
rate, then we look at the child abuse rate, infanticide rate, I think this idea that women
0.96
00:17:50.540
naturally want that, I just don't see any evidence for it.
0.99
00:17:56.360
Now I'm not saying I don't wish that to be true, I don't hope that is true, but what
00:18:01.520
What I kept finding doing these interviews is that I just didn't have any indication
00:18:10.160
that that was a priority for 85%, maybe 80% of the people I interviewed.
0.94
00:18:18.140
And the pushback I would get, right, is not all women are like that, and that was always
00:18:34.540
What you find is regardless of the culture, the ethnicity, the race, where they are, maybe
00:18:41.960
some cultures and ethnicities and religions, it's happening at a slower rate, but it's
00:18:54.420
would hear way more women say they didn't want kids than men and that's the birth rate declining
00:19:00.100
so less children um more abortions more stds so this idea like everyone always blames it on the
00:19:10.500
culture but who's in control of the culture who is this media catered to and then the vast majority
0.97
00:19:19.780
of women do 95 of the child-rearing household chores mental load and then often work full-time
0.99
00:19:23.940
too why would anyone do that to themselves and then people replied to that person and said well
0.94
00:19:28.420
these women just want to be martyrs they want to feel better than all of us what i mean maybe women
0.98
00:19:33.940
choose to do this because not everyone has your values because not everyone is as angry as you
0.61
00:19:39.060
because women are i'm sorry to break it to you we are biologically designed and called to be mothers
00:19:45.220
yeah so again this is the this is what made me think of it as i was listening to your video
00:19:50.420
And I was thinking, I'm like, I just, if women are biologically called to be mothers and that's
00:19:57.520
their natural inclination, I know we biologically can have children. I know that's a thing.
00:20:04.800
But then why do we kill these kids so often or abort them? Why is the abuse rate for
00:20:18.100
And again, men still do it, women still do it.
0.92
00:20:34.500
why are women the ones that kill the kid in the first year,
1.00
00:20:41.520
abuse the kid, and why aren't they having them, right?
1.00
00:20:44.320
It just goes back to the plausible deniability, okay?
00:20:50.560
And most women, no matter how hard they try
0.96
00:20:55.460
It's like the modern world has destroyed women.
1.00
00:21:06.260
it goes back to how do you see what people want to do?
00:21:18.920
I mean, that's what the guy has always wanted to do.
00:21:40.880
If you want to go get married, go get married.
1.00
00:21:42.860
If you want to get an abortion, go get an abortion.
0.99
00:21:44.860
If you want birth control, go get birth control.
0.95
00:21:48.720
And then women, 90% have been on birth control.
0.66
00:21:58.280
One out of three has an abortion by the time they're 45.
00:22:15.260
that's that's the conclusion I came to and I just kind of the way I thought
00:22:22.160
about it was by blaming it on the modern world or feminism or society it just
00:22:28.840
takes accountability off of grown adults that can make decisions
00:22:33.640
otherwise and block out all of those feelings they know that and at some
0.93
00:22:37.360
point they will want that like why do you think so many women are freezing christiana said why do i
1.00
00:22:42.080
always look drunk that's rude that's rude water water okay let's not their eggs even as they're
1.00
00:22:49.520
girl bossing and working on their careers for literally decades because they know that later
0.91
00:22:53.520
down the line that is something that they will probably want even though they're trying to
00:22:56.640
suppress those feelings as hard as later down the line even as they're girl bossing see this
00:23:00.880
like i just want you to show the concept it's still women are innocent we are these innocent
00:23:05.920
victims they will want that like why do you think so block out what are i'm sorry to break it to you
00:23:11.440
we are biologically designed and called to be mothers like whether you like it or not and most
0.52
00:23:16.320
women no matter how hard they try to convince themselves otherwise and block out all of those
00:23:20.880
feelings they know that and at some point they will want that like why do you think so many
1.00
00:23:24.880
women are freezing their eggs even as they're girl bossing and working on their careers for
1.00
00:23:28.800
literally decades because they know that later okay the reason that women freeze their eggs
1.00
00:23:34.240
is because there are things they would rather do than be mothers with their youth so the youth
0.60
00:23:40.540
again the youth is the most valuable thing that we have that's the most valuable thing you can
00:23:45.740
give to your husband that's the most valuable thing you can give to your children because one
00:23:50.440
the kids are turn out better if you have them naturally and you have more energy to raise them
00:24:06.680
And so they're saying, I would rather spend my youth on myself than being a mother and a wife.
00:24:14.540
I don't think that's necessarily right or wrong, but we have to describe what's going on.
00:24:21.220
And that's what I realized when you describe these things.
00:24:24.560
You have to preface it with, does it mean a terrible person?
00:24:29.140
Like, if someone's perfectly nice and that's what they decide to do, fine.
00:24:33.460
but where i get annoyed is where you make that choice and make it everybody else's problem and
00:24:39.300
i have to react to you on tiktok later that's where i get annoyed down the line that is something
00:24:44.500
that they will probably want even though they're trying to suppress those feelings as hard as they
00:24:48.100
can and also many women see those hardships you mentioned as sacrifices and positive choices that
00:24:54.260
they are making for these tiny humans who give their life meaning and joy that give them hope
00:24:59.220
and motivation to make the world i mean have you guys ever babysat
00:25:06.820
like had a kid siblings i just sometimes when we talk about children i'm like do you guys know the
00:25:12.260
day-to-day it's very it's like not like you wake up every day and you're like i'm so joyous
00:25:18.820
it's hard it is a sacrifice and it's rewarding right but yeah so hold on i'll keep a better
00:25:25.460
place but no i mean that just seems like it might be a little too much of a joyful attitude for you
00:25:29.780
people i mean just a suggestion maybe you should go pray about it you could download hallow and
00:25:33.220
start that today craziness sorry sorry we'll have a new guide giving you include my they have great
00:25:38.420
there much and i jewel in there like these prayers will make you a happy peppier gratitude filled
00:25:45.220
individual unlike everyone that we're talking about now in addition to the blatant vitriol
00:25:49.140
about the impact on women and their careers and their freedom there is also resentment towards
00:25:53.620
families and children because of the environment which a now viral recent article pointed out now
00:25:58.340
this has become a common talking point as you guys know i think we did an entire episode about
00:26:01.940
this a few months ago we'll link it below but the la times really leaned in last week when they
00:26:06.260
published this piece quote it is almost shameful to want to have children and that's the headline
00:26:11.780
now in this piece they interviewed a set of people about the climate crisis and about having children
00:26:16.180
and the responses were all basically the same the world is ending there's no hope it's a harsh
00:26:20.660
terrible world and bringing children into it will only make the world worse and will hurt
00:26:24.580
our planet for instance one girl said i think i may not have children although i do want them
0.99
00:26:28.740
quote just because with all the things we see going on in the world it seems okay so ladies
00:26:33.220
what's our favorite phrase we love using this with guys if he wanted to he would we love that phrase
00:26:41.540
that's like whenever the boyfriend's not measuring up we love it the boyfriend we you know it's like
00:26:48.660
we get in our group chats right or our group of friends and one girl complains about her boyfriend
00:26:55.060
and the other girl says what does she say if he wanted to he would but for some reason with us
00:27:03.460
it's like every benefit of the doubt is given there's no if we wanted to we would unfair to
00:27:11.780
bring somebody into all of this against their will i mean it's so bleak like genuinely from
00:27:17.860
a place of empathy are you guys okay like this is how you look at the world 24 7 no hope so
00:27:22.820
depressing so awful try joy kamala's talking about joy 24 7 try gratitude try joy genuinely i think
00:27:29.300
that your life will be a little bit better but we yeah and i i will i do agree with this part because
00:27:34.180
you know and i've seen this everywhere like selling that the world is ending and having a
00:27:42.660
our common enemy, I guess, is just how people sell things. So that's how the health people
00:27:50.120
sell things. You're going to get cancer, whatever, terrible disease, so buy my, you know, whatever.
00:27:57.460
And then there's the conservatives, we'll say it's the liberals, and like the,
00:28:06.180
the, yeah, I mean, the climate activists at the end of the war. I mean, that's just, you know,
00:28:11.340
fear people make decisions out of fear it's like a marketing tactic have made a total 180 because
00:28:18.060
what was once a gift has guys i think i'm losing my voice how raspy is it one to ten let me know
00:28:24.260
in the chat one to ten i just i think i'm losing it a little bit now become a burden rather than
00:28:28.660
giving a child the opportunity to live to thrive to dream to change the world and make it better
00:28:34.100
their first thought is this is against their will they don't want this i mean this idea is so
00:28:38.580
widespread. Here's a similar comment. It should be considered shameful. Nothing ethical about
00:28:43.580
bringing a child who did not ask to be born into an uncertain and unforgiving world. I mean, like,
00:28:48.140
how do you know what they want? Are you claiming that these unborn children have personhood and
0.99
00:28:53.460
have thoughts and feelings? That's a first because I thought they were just clumps of cells. So maybe
1.00
00:28:58.560
you should figure out what you actually believe and try to be consistent about all of that. Now,
00:29:02.280
they also highlighted a few black interviewees that they spoke to who all said that the other
0.87
00:29:05.660
reason why they wouldn't want to bring children into the world is because they refuse to bring
00:29:09.180
black children into this terrible inequitable and racist society quote if i have children they will
0.98
00:29:13.660
be black children she said it isn't self-hatred i love being black but the things i've gone through
0.99
00:29:18.540
okay i think this is enough for this video you guys get the idea but the mindset is still
00:29:25.740
no accountability and that's what i realized during this whole thing was that liberals and
00:29:31.100
conservatives blame the men, but in different ways. So the next thing that happened when I was
00:29:37.860
going through this, so it was kind of funny. So basically, I used to watch the Daily Wire all the
00:29:43.780
time. I used to like love their stuff. And then I started doing real world interviews. And I just,
00:29:51.240
I just thought they were either ignorant or lying. And I didn't know, not Brett,
0.97
00:29:56.800
Brett's like 20 something right but the older guys when it came to marriage and family I just
00:30:03.740
thought they cannot be this ignorant on the family court system if they're over the age of say 35
00:30:14.320
there's no way you've made it to this old and don't see what's going on but over and over again
0.77
00:30:21.620
And I just kept, so I felt like I was correcting them.
00:30:31.780
I felt like I was correcting them and just saying, hey, guys, marriage is not a great deal for men, you know.
00:30:39.320
And it would be weird because they would just respond with this, like, morality argument.
00:30:47.380
And I wanted to bring up some of the Daily Wire reactions to me.
00:30:52.900
It's like I watched them in high school, and then I end up being reacted to by all of these guys.
00:31:05.760
Yeah, so then they said this is where it all went wrong, and then I was on the thumbnail.
00:31:13.060
Meaning of red pill has evolved over the last...
00:31:15.460
and i have a better understanding now of a lot of these concepts so i wanted to i'm actually
00:31:21.280
glad i can re-react to this it's interesting how the meaning of red pill has evolved over the last
00:31:25.380
five years to essentially now mean and i would say anti-woman they would say pro-man but i think
00:31:32.500
it's far beyond pro-man i think it's decidedly anti-woman in many ways and you see people who
00:31:37.520
i think some of them are are bad actors who are peddling but then you also see people like
00:31:42.620
like pearly things who i don't know pearl i don't know if she's a bad actor or not i kind of get the
00:31:47.460
sense that maybe she's just a naive uh person being kind of dragged along out of half desire
00:31:52.660
to be famous and half probably hasn't read a book um and half of that i can i interviewed a thousand
00:31:58.280
people i want you guys to go do that oh that's that's what i thought i was like you gotta let
00:32:03.860
me go see you interview a thousand people and anyways sorry i need i need to not get triggered
00:32:09.600
relate to the other half you can also really I do think it's this interesting
00:32:18.780
question that that is harder to talk about and one and so what is what is the
00:32:23.320
red pill right all the red pill is is men sharing information I mean it's it's
00:32:32.120
the study of human behavior so it's men coming together in forums online and
00:32:37.080
saying I had this experience with this woman I had this experience with this
00:32:41.880
woman it's not a movement it's not a person it's not you know whatever and so
0.99
00:32:49.020
that's that's what they would always try to do is they would try to like attack
00:32:53.760
it in that way once it is it might be fit this format just to talk about what
00:33:00.580
is the role of men and women what is the role of marriage in a society that has
00:33:05.280
essentially turned its back on the concept of marriage that is legally
00:33:09.600
encoded anti-anti-man policies into our legal code.
00:33:17.880
It's not anti-man, they've abolished difference.
00:33:20.880
They've abolished the difference between marriage.
00:33:23.880
You know, I just went on the whatever podcast for my, I think it's now my like 28th.
00:33:28.680
And so this is where you get the cognitive dissident.
00:33:33.620
And on whatever, they put attractive women on that podcast.
00:33:48.760
And you see the decisions that women as a collective are making.
00:33:54.280
And it's not really indicating that they want to be wives and mothers.
00:33:59.140
and yet we're still saying that the red pill is scaring men into not getting married it's not
00:34:08.180
and I'm telling you guys most men under the age of 35 in the right circumstances would get married
00:34:15.140
I would say from my from my interviews most guys that are young would still give it a good go
00:34:22.940
they'll say you know what if I find the right girl she's hot enough good looking enough but
1.00
00:34:28.600
I'll still give it a good go it's women that do not want to get married and have children
1.00
00:34:36.620
I found more men that wanted to be fathers than women that wanted to be mothers and I didn't
0.89
00:34:42.680
come to this conclusion remember I had a very similar worldview to them to start
00:34:47.520
but it was like you I couldn't ignore what was in front of me I couldn't
00:34:54.940
interview woman after woman after woman that didn't know how to cook didn't want to serve a
00:35:03.420
man didn't want to obey her husband and think to myself wow they're really making choices to want
00:35:10.400
to do that um yeah so this is okay I wanted to I think the other video I have indicates it a
00:35:19.120
little more and then I was gonna see if the guy who tweeted this wanted to come
00:35:30.360
can I ask a question to Pearl actually get a lot of views let me let me I'll
00:35:38.560
keep going with this one for a little bit see if there's anything else but I
00:35:41.740
might also burn in hell for eternity and I thought about it for a moment okay I
00:35:49.660
Yeah, exactly, never, like, I went on a great discourse
00:36:03.280
Let's not pretend this is like how the normal world,
00:36:07.120
the average guy working at like a mechanic shop
00:36:16.000
So I go on there, and I just felt it's not these girls' fault.
00:36:33.420
Because, and in the beginning, right, you kind of have empathy.
00:36:38.840
But again, then I would just interview woman, man, woman, man.
00:36:44.100
It's like, do you feel bad for a guy that's broke at 35?
00:36:50.000
So why do we feel bad for women if they're freezing their eggs at 35?
0.58
00:36:56.020
I mean, you probably made some bad decisions to get there.
00:36:59.320
But then you got Michael Knowles coming in saying, this isn't your fault.
00:37:10.760
So I go on there, and I just felt it's not these girls' fault.
00:37:17.400
none of that we live in a culture that teaches them a ton of lies they don't
00:37:23.260
and has some weird family situation and commits a crime
00:37:26.340
we would all say that's your fault but it's always the get out of jail
00:37:30.760
free card every single time it drives me crazy no education even if they went to
00:37:34.360
good schools they have no education and the thing is you never know if they
00:37:38.260
because they really believe it and they just don't know
0.96
00:37:42.460
Or because every content creator knows you make more money with a bigger female audience.
1.00
00:37:50.860
Women make 8 out of 10 consumer buying decisions.
1.00
00:38:02.800
And sign up for our monthly or yearly memberships to support our documentaries, shows, producers, and guests.
00:38:12.100
So I felt, okay, let's just talk about what's really going on here.
1.00
00:38:19.380
See, again, okay, so now that he's saying they're victims of feminism,
00:38:24.980
so they're victims, not they're making, they're adults making decisions.
00:38:30.480
And I have to point this out because I actually think it's important for us women to know this.
00:38:36.960
Because there's men that will lie to you and men that will be honest with you.
00:38:40.780
And personally, I would prefer someone that's honest over somebody that's hiding the truth from me, whether intentionally or unintentionally, to shield my feelings.
00:38:53.840
And that's kind of what you're going to get here, because it's not their fault.
00:39:07.300
as her victims of feminism the irony about the red pill guys i sympathize with them a lot a lot
00:39:12.960
of ways the family courts are totally stacked against you and he's saying he doesn't even know
00:39:18.100
what the red pill is and i wish when i had my discussion with him um because i just understand
00:39:25.020
i was so nervous when i went i don't know why i was so nervous but i was really nervous at the
00:39:29.660
time so there's some conversations i wish that we could have had but in that case um
00:39:37.060
red pill is men is the study of human behavior and it came from forums online of men trying to
00:39:47.340
figure out solutions to their problems so they might say at 27 women find god and we saw that
00:39:54.920
with nala coming on the show right foods the culture promotes divorce and abolish the definition
00:39:59.520
of marriage and blah blah blah but the the red pill guys are feminists their their sense of men
00:40:06.140
and women is basically this it's just that men and women are interchangeable
00:40:10.280
yes and go around screw around you owe nothing to women if it's good for women
00:40:14.360
it's good for men and that's just a lie you know the fundamental unit of
00:40:18.980
society is actually not and so what these guys will do is and I don't know
0.97
00:40:25.340
their personal stuff but they in their eyes women are these angelic creatures
00:40:32.060
that always want marriage, family, and relationships, but the experience of men that date women
00:40:41.340
between 18 to 25, let's say, and are selected for short term, so like flings, that sort
00:40:49.640
of thing, is that many women do not want that, and they want to be promiscuous, and so he'll
00:40:57.120
still find a way to blame it on the men when oftentimes that like if you go to if you go to
00:41:02.740
a high-end celebrity show right if you go to like um drake justin bieber what you any guy that's
0.82
00:41:12.060
super sought after you will see hundreds thousands of women throwing bras at them being super
0.83
00:41:20.620
sexually forward, right? And it's not just one woman. It's not a couple. It's significant enough
1.00
00:41:28.540
that they can fill a stadium with women that want to do that and are doing that, right? I'm not
1.00
00:41:33.620
saying it's all, but it's significant enough. So are those women really victims, right? Is it
00:41:41.620
they just wanted marriage and relationships and they just wanted to be wives? And is it Drake's
00:41:47.460
fault if he or whatever celebrity it is and I'm using a celebrity as an example but there's still
00:41:55.180
a top guy at the college right or a top guy at work that the women go after so how is it his
0.53
00:42:03.480
fault if the women are asking to sleep around and the thing is they blame men for it but most men
00:42:13.180
don't even have the option to sleep around it's i mean according to statistics it's maybe 10 of men
00:42:20.300
but 80 of women maybe 20 30 if you're generous for the men so who's responsible right someone
00:42:31.580
in the chat said the bras just weren't comfy the individual right i love individual rights
00:42:36.860
it's good to be an individual the unit the fundamental unit of society is the family
00:42:40.940
it's men and women together who have a love that becomes so real that you make more people to have
00:42:46.220
to have an atom you have to have a proton and an electron and this is another thing people don't
00:42:51.820
aren't aware that arranged marriages was the way for most history so it never really was about love
00:42:59.980
romantic love um was the downfall of marriage i mean birth control contribute like it wasn't
00:43:08.140
just one thing, but before romantic love happened, um, it, it was two families got together and they
00:43:22.160
exchanged goods. And then they said, it depends on the culture, right? Sometimes the bride would
00:43:28.260
give money. Sometimes the groom would give money, but they would come up with some sort of
00:43:33.880
arrangement they would say your son's 18 my daughter's 18 our families get along
00:43:38.800
let's do this thing there wasn't really love that came later right all right so
00:43:44.980
it's like a man is a proton like very important but essentially nothing until
00:43:50.500
it's you have Adam you need to have an Eve that's where I thought he was going
00:43:53.920
that's where I thought he was gonna go for the Steve thing I've always two
00:44:02.020
protons and Adam does not make, I dare say. I've always, with the red pill, and I've been in many
00:44:08.900
altercations with the red, I've run afoul with the red pill crowd many times talking about these
00:44:14.340
issues. And the question I've always had for them that they've never answered, and I'd love to hear
1.00
00:44:18.520
an answer from any of them, is that, because I agree with 95% of their criticisms, as you point
00:44:24.440
out, the family courts and how it's stacked against men and so on and so forth. What's the other
00:44:29.260
option like okay we agree with all that so then men should just so the way they view men as a
00:44:38.680
collective and I get a lot of flack for saying that I don't like to tell men what to do the way
00:44:48.700
I see it is men have so many women in their lives telling them what to do they have their mom telling
00:44:55.880
them what to do they have their wife or their girlfriend telling them what to do i mean who
0.92
00:45:02.520
the hell am i if you guys want to go get married to some big old chick named shirley who am i to
0.57
00:45:10.840
tell you not to it's your life you got one life to live if you want to go have 10 kids and daily
0.98
00:45:16.660
wire i mean go ahead i mean if you got don't don't make your decision because of some random
00:45:22.280
woman on the internet I'm just I'm just a random woman um but they view men as a collective and
00:45:31.580
they view everybody as a movement so they think oh we should all make these decisions together
00:45:37.560
but I don't know you people I mean they don't know you so wouldn't you think that every man
00:45:47.840
should look at his circumstances and decide for himself.
00:46:00.240
is going to be different than a bartender in Mexico.
00:46:09.540
So a lot of times they view men as a collective.
00:46:17.840
be alone and and give up on their on their bloodline and die and their
00:46:23.280
bloodline is extinguished like what you are suggesting is despair you are
00:46:28.080
telling men that men are already feeling despair they're feeling
00:46:30.960
meaninglessness they're feeling lost they're feeling alone they're feeling
00:46:34.600
like everything's stacked against them and so your answer to them is yeah well
00:46:37.940
just that that's the be in despair and then die well the question is what what
00:46:45.940
is different when you're married and when you're not married? What's different when you're living
00:46:53.960
together and when you're married? What's the difference? The difference is that when she
00:47:01.940
gets married, then she has leverage. Granted, I think they always have leverage. If you have kids,
1.00
00:47:09.680
she has leverage but that's why you hear a lot of men say after marriage the woman changes or
0.61
00:47:18.260
after children the woman changes because you get to see who she truly is because now she has
00:47:24.680
leverage that it's much more difficult for you to leave and my point is that that's just that's
0.62
00:47:33.020
just not an okay answer that can't be the end and have lots and lots of sex well but that's
00:47:46.200
The way that you find meaning is then by disparaging
00:47:57.140
and it has to be sort of put together artificially,
00:47:59.960
then the person who self-perceives as the victim
00:48:02.240
is very likely to then strike out at the person
00:48:06.280
And so for a lot of the red pill men who perceive the woman, the great woman, as the victimizer, the idea is that you lash out at women by having lots of sex with random girls and basically treating them like trash.
0.99
00:48:17.140
And it's okay because they said that it's okay with them.
0.96
00:48:18.900
But that doesn't, I've never understood the argument that it relieves you of responsibility.
00:48:23.220
So the reason he thinks this is because he thinks that those women wanted relationships.
00:48:29.320
So he's thinking, well, you just hooked up with them and then you didn't talk to them again.
00:48:36.440
Do you know how many guys I've heard say that they would hook up with women
00:48:49.480
But most men have never been in that position, right?
00:48:52.860
I mean, it's like 10%, 20% of men statistically.
00:48:57.940
Or they get married before they ever are, which is fine.
00:49:04.460
but it's not uncommon for treating a woman well just because the woman has consented to be treated
00:49:11.100
badly but this he's right about the despair this is permeating the right it permeates the politics
00:49:16.540
of the right it's the idea is basically it's all over they think of people basically ben like you
00:49:21.180
and me as sitting on an ice flow kind of floating out with as the ice you know melts away because
00:49:26.540
we're sitting around thinking about civil debate and you know constitutional governance and they
00:49:32.540
think that's all over now and and they're all their despair is permeates the right and i listen
00:49:38.060
i listen to a lot of these young guys and they're talking about bringing back monarchy they're
00:49:41.420
talking about you know they're yeah they're king i know you look what i didn't say anything
00:49:48.380
it's not that great you know it actually isn't you you know if you think if you think our
00:49:52.300
elections are bad when you see the beheadings you know because that's how most of the king
0.70
00:49:56.620
I'm not saying we need an imam or a shake, you know, honestly, this whole conversation
00:50:04.020
would be putting me to sleep, but I can't go to sleep right here.
00:50:26.620
Oh wait, how do I, did the sound stop, what did I do?
00:50:53.620
this. Yeah, that's their whole position. They think that marriage is a- What men are anti-marriage?
00:50:59.460
Well, yeah, that's the point. They shouldn't be, you know, but it's- No, but he's right. This is
1.00
00:51:03.220
true. All the guys that pop up in our Twitter feed- But tell me, I'm actually missing this.
00:51:06.600
I didn't know the marriage thing. I'm very pro-marriage. Pearl made that argument.
00:51:10.240
Yes. Okay. The argument men, literally, men should not get married. I never, they would
00:51:14.040
always mischaracterize what I said. I said it's objectively an unfavorable deal to men.
00:51:22.020
but if you find a hot chick and you want to sorry a hot woman and you want to go do it go do it
0.99
00:51:34.060
okay because the institution are men listening to that like are men saying that men shouldn't
00:51:39.660
get married or is that a woman saying that a man shouldn't get married well per i think that
00:51:43.760
anyways so that's that was anyways i think that's enough for the daily wire stuff you guys get the
00:51:49.700
idea so again they view it as that the women want to be married and they want
00:52:00.440
to be in relationships and that's what they want
00:52:04.480
but their actions do not indicate that so let me pull up the last one oh yeah
00:52:12.220
okay so this was when I got to a different level of understanding when I
0.97
00:52:18.220
I figured out because I kept hearing that women were nurturing right and I kept looking for any
0.52
00:52:24.600
stat that would back that up and I couldn't find any I scoured the internet none question of pearl
00:52:33.420
sure so I know someone in the chat said my ex did a 180 after I had the kid yeah
00:52:39.240
you said that men are better in every single way don't you think it's low-key like comparing
00:52:46.220
out oranges to apples like they're completely different men and women or from mars and women
00:52:53.260
are from jupiter so why let men go to jupiter to get my my opinion is that my opinion is that women
0.69
00:53:03.580
are weaker vessels we just cannot do things the same way that men can and the reason i came to
1.00
00:53:08.060
this opinion was i was trying to find one thing that women do better that's that's backed up by
0.77
00:53:13.660
fact. Sorry, one second. I'm trying to find where they say that men are nurturing.
1.00
00:53:27.740
Sneak, when Pearl was talking before, Sneak was listening. When you talk about this,
00:53:32.380
shut up. Because see, this is the worldview. I want to show the worldview's crashing.
1.00
00:53:37.100
Because again, in his worldview, it's women are nurturing, they naturally want to be mothers,
00:53:41.100
and that's the worldview crashed for me too it's okay let me finish you're wrong if we include
0.71
00:53:49.820
um first the moment are given the opportunity to innovate and the platform to innovate when women
0.80
00:53:56.220
when women are no it's it because that is still an invention that we could live without the
0.66
00:54:01.800
invention you want to live without champagne i don't really i don't drink much so it wouldn't
00:54:09.140
it doesn't make a difference but so but i i i understand but what i'm saying is society could
00:54:15.860
still operate fine without it where the the inventions that men may do make and the jobs
00:54:22.260
that men do we could not live without well this is the one thing that i think holds back your
00:54:27.540
argument i think you you touch um the truth on so many subjects but like harboring on this is like
00:54:32.580
it angers women and then men are like yeah you know we are more competent and i think if you
00:54:36.180
explain it differently like yeah men are more competent in every single field we make more
00:54:39.540
money we're supposed to we're the provider but like addressing it by saying like men are better
00:54:44.260
than women uh i think holds it back because we complement each other like yeah it's not like
00:54:48.500
you're yes we do okay you don't but i'm saying like men are always going to be better at most
00:54:56.020
things you're you're measuring women's success and ability based on men's standards like we're
00:55:00.100
going to be we're going to dominate sports we're going to dominate a business no i didn't that's
00:55:02.980
not true i i said nurturing i said men are still better at raising men so do you know what's
00:55:08.340
interesting i want to show you how the world view conflicts and they don't even see it
00:55:12.980
on this show two women got into a fight they started throwing hands and they the security
00:55:22.020
had to i think the woman was gone at this point so we're on a show and he's saying that women are
00:55:29.060
more nurturing right after we just witnessed a all-out fist fight a complete fist fight
00:55:47.700
let me finish you're wrong if we include um first the most the most dangerous place a kid can be is
00:55:54.260
where in the mother's womb one out of women have an abortion but if you don't one out of three i
00:55:59.940
couldn't talk it's tough i was fighting the whole panel guys i was fighting this whole panel don't
00:56:05.620
believe in that fine in the first year in the first wait in the first year women are the most
00:56:12.580
likely ones to kill children it's almost unheard of for a man a man to kill a child so this idea
00:56:18.260
that women are nurtured it's just not true women are the most likely ones to abuse children they're
00:56:22.660
the most likely ones to abuse the elderly kill the elderly kill children these are just facts
00:56:32.260
if we look at single mother homes versus single father homes single father homes fair
00:56:36.340
basically the same as two parent homes so this isn't like this isn't this is just facts and
00:56:42.900
i don't really care how it makes people feel if i'm right it's true well it may be facts but i
00:56:46.900
think let's maybe look at the circumstances because what you are saying is correct women
00:56:51.060
suffer from postpartum depression because let's think about it men are set to excel outside of
00:57:01.460
the home women especially nowadays a lot of women have a career and we are expected to excel in the
00:57:07.140
home no but it's even it's even you know it's but it's even after postpartum depression women are
0.99
00:57:11.460
the most likely ones to abuse children because they're the most likely ones to not be involved
00:57:16.260
so we're saying like that women want to be wives and mothers and we're on a show
00:57:26.740
with all women that are young women do any of them seem like that's steps that they're taking
00:57:32.100
you know involved no that's not true because if that were true the abuse stats the abuse stats
00:57:37.700
um women women have spent less time with children over time so if it had to do with the amount of
00:57:43.620
the study listen listen they keep they're so triggered they keep so the
0.94
00:57:47.940
abuse steps because women are the mother is the most likely one to abuse a child
0.81
00:57:52.380
and over over time the more time mothers have spent with children because what
0.98
00:58:06.900
does what the simps the cope the cope always is it's because women spend more
1.00
00:58:13.360
time with the children but if that was true then as women spent less time with the children
00:58:19.860
abuse would go down but it's gone up so they've done they've done they've done they've done this
0.72
00:58:24.980
is they've done this is they've done this is the way listen listen shut up my god you ask me a
0.97
00:58:30.280
question shut up it's like freaking a they looked at the numbers over time this is over the last 50
0.98
00:58:37.020
years women have spent they have spent less time with children there's more kids in daycares now
0.97
00:58:43.360
And yet the abuse, the less time that women have spent with children, the abuse stats have gone up, not down.
0.94
00:58:51.960
No, no, because the less, if it was what you said, which is it's how much time women are spending with children.
00:59:00.440
What I said is women are expected to do three times the amount of work as men.
1.00
00:59:09.720
you know you could get an at-home job or you could get a human resources job sitting at home
1.00
00:59:16.280
and get a roomba look at problem solved in a relationship no no i that oh i i misheard you
1.00
00:59:23.080
but but my my point is women are the more violent ones i i totally believe that i mean women have
00:59:28.440
aborted a seventh of the world population a seven way away but i want to figure out like
00:59:34.360
but i want to figure out when you talk about this what's the what are you trying to get to like do
00:59:38.200
do we not, you're saying we don't need women? Because again, they see it, they see it as a
0.99
00:59:42.160
movement. So if I have this fact, right? And I say, look, this is a fact and it's a fact
00:59:47.940
that we don't, it doesn't make us feel good, right? We love the facts that make us feel good.
00:59:54.700
But when I bring up a fact that maybe conflicts with what people previously thought and seems
01:00:01.560
out there, right? But I can prove it. And I say, hey, these are the facts. People that view
01:00:09.720
everything as a movement and that they're going to fix society, they'll say, well, why would you
01:00:15.500
say that? Because what about my movement? Because they view themselves as the front runners or
01:00:24.100
whatever of a movement. And what I think it is, is being a media personality makes people think
01:00:32.940
that they have more of an impact than they do. And I could say this because, you know,
01:00:42.540
the past three years I've been giving stats on family law, divorce, family, like that sort of
01:00:50.800
thing the birth rates still going down even though I got a billion views on my
01:00:55.000
channel a billion before I had to clear it and I was just in Texas talking to
01:01:05.040
one of the top family law court like one of one of the guys he's won a lot of
01:01:11.020
cases for men and he's one of the top lawyers in Texas and he tells me the
01:01:15.600
abuse them. They're changing the law for abuse to be more favorable for women. So a billion views
01:01:22.280
didn't really do as much as we thought. And I think a lot of times people overestimate how much
01:01:29.200
impact media has. I'm not saying it's not impactful at all, but what I am saying is that the people
01:01:36.400
that have the most impact in society or are like the Elon Musks of the world, those are the ones
01:01:45.360
that can really i would say change things more than like youtube you know what's the point of
01:01:51.520
saying that i mean the point the point is that well one i use that a lot in custody arguments
01:01:57.040
i think men should automatically have custody of children okay that sounds crazy no no because
01:02:04.240
the kids why would you not do what's in the best interest of the child you give it to the
1.00
01:02:07.520
dad and the reason we keep having this thing where we say women are nurturing women are
01:02:11.200
nurture but it's not true and so i'm i'm saying like i would rather live in reality and we make
01:02:17.680
laws based on what's true because when you have this stuff where we keep repeating something
01:02:22.240
that's not true that's how you have 90 of custody going to women because everyone believes they're
01:02:26.240
more nurturing they're not you think men are going to be able to breastfeed a baby better than
0.79
01:02:30.000
they're less likely to abuse the children they're less likely to cope well women breastfeed well
01:02:42.640
in all honesty guys i think yeah you know they're bringing building artificial wombs because we're
01:02:51.220
not even we bottle feed half the time nowadays we don't even do that to kill the child there's a
01:02:58.100
there's a story in the news i'll give you an example of how this plays out abuse is an outlier
01:03:02.100
there's a lot of men that abuse it's not it's not an outlier children that are women but but
01:03:07.220
if you go back to single father versus single mother home single dad home single father
01:03:13.220
abuse is not an outlier it's very common i mean there's just there's just there's just a story
01:03:18.020
in the news of i mean you saw that three-year-old that the mother sometimes even you go way too far
01:03:24.100
like you got to calm down it's not it's not too far it's true you guys you can laugh all you want
01:03:33.460
and the thing is how does she go too far how does she just out of curiosity because she just stated
01:03:38.660
the facts are too far they're too far for people they're too far
01:04:00.740
okay i think i think we get the idea here i want to pull up one more space i want to see if
01:04:08.900
because i feel like i have the chat on my phone if you guys see it i'm not being rude
01:04:12.980
um what is that woman's name i want to see if i can find the space i did with this woman
0.97
01:04:24.100
Let me go to her profile, see if I can pull it up.
01:04:45.480
But yeah, these are just conclusions I've come to in the past year.
01:04:51.240
And there was a space I thought really, I might do it a different day, let me see.
1.00
01:05:03.800
I think the main point I'm getting at though, it's not really, it's not meant to be a women
01:05:11.120
versus men thing, the nurturing thing is just a side comment, but the more important point
