00:00:00.000 what up guys welcome to the just pearly things youtube channel today i am reacting to tom
00:00:05.900 lycus's best motivational speech so i haven't seen a ton of him i'm kind of new to his content but i
00:00:11.840 have heard that he is the og in this space so i can't wait to see what he says because uh many
00:00:18.880 of you take lycus 101 very seriously many of you have depended upon lycus 101 not just for
00:00:25.240 information on how to get laid but for information on how guys think to find out how your friends are
00:00:31.760 thinking what they're doing and many of you live it as a lifestyle and i could not just let that go
00:00:38.600 without a final class and that is what this is going to be i want to tie up
00:00:48.800 the last 11 years of lycus 101 we've been teaching lycus 101 since 1998
00:00:56.200 and we're going to be uh we're going to be taking a uh vacation for a little while
00:01:02.880 and so there will be no lycus 101 classes and so it's very important that we uh
00:01:07.400 we get this message in here and i want to get it in for you now
00:01:10.340 there's an overarching theme to everything i have taught in this classroom
00:01:15.540 and what that overarching theme is is this
00:01:19.700 the key to getting chicks the key to getting laid the key to appearing successful 0.98
00:01:28.540 the key to being successful
00:01:31.580 it all begins with something that i had to learn myself
00:01:37.080 love yourself 0.94
00:01:40.320 love yourself first i'm not talking about masturbation 1.00
00:01:45.000 you elementary morons out there i'm talking to you about 1.00
00:01:49.300 the way you feel about yourself defines everything you are and everything you ever can be 0.99
00:01:56.340 in my life at 12 years old i looked around an 80 a month apartment
00:02:04.060 and my siblings and my dad who was the hardest working person i ever knew and he just
00:02:09.660 essentially spun his wheels his whole life as he uh attempted to uh make a living and support a family
00:02:16.440 um
00:02:17.760 the
00:02:19.560 the moment came when i stood up and i said the following i said
00:02:24.660 i'm better than all this
00:02:27.760 smarter
00:02:29.880 got more going for me
00:02:32.520 i don't want to be caught in the quicksand
00:02:35.680 at age 17 when i was about to leave town everyone said why aren't you going to the senior prom
00:02:44.160 why are you going to the junior prom
00:02:46.760 my fear was this i thought 10 steps ahead
00:02:51.040 and i said to myself let's say
00:02:54.300 i take a girl to the prom let's say she becomes my girlfriend 1.00
00:02:58.660 i'm going to be stuck in the quicksand
00:03:02.500 the quicksand of people who make 25 000 a year
00:03:06.700 the quicksand of people who have three children by age 21
00:03:10.180 the quicksand of not going to college
00:03:13.680 not ever being a professional
00:03:15.560 not ever making any money
00:03:17.700 not ever being able to say i am someone
00:03:21.180 translation women hold men back 0.99
00:03:25.280 that's true
00:03:26.180 and some men can get around it but there's so many women 1.00
00:03:29.940 it's like they want their husband to be successful but they cap it because they just ruin his life
00:03:35.300 fortunately i knew that at age 16
00:03:39.520 at age 12 i knew i was more than this
00:03:41.700 at age 16 i said he didn't want to get caught in the quicksand
00:03:44.920 my whole life has been about trying to improve my lot in life because i knew
00:03:54.000 that i was destined to be somebody
00:03:56.700 to be somebody great
00:03:58.740 the problem with so many of you guys who i've talked to over the years and i've talked to so many of you
00:04:05.080 is that you start off life thinking
00:04:08.880 i have nothing
00:04:10.920 my family has nothing
00:04:12.520 i'm just uh you know smoking uh smoking weed and uh drinking and i've got my girlfriend who'll have 0.99
00:04:20.680 sex with me 10 times a day 0.99
00:04:22.020 nothing more is ever going to come of this 0.98
00:04:24.400 i'm here to tell you that
00:04:27.860 i came out of the same world you're in now
00:04:31.020 i grew up dirt poor
00:04:33.460 i grew up in a family where we didn't know successful people
00:04:37.440 and we didn't know how to how to be successful
00:04:39.940 my mom told me ridiculous things over the years like
00:04:43.760 we don't play tennis that's for rich people 0.90
00:04:47.380 we don't play the piano rich people have pianos
00:04:51.260 and i said f all that
00:04:54.420 i'm better than that
00:04:56.560 i am better than that
00:04:59.500 over the years i did some backsliding occasionally i fell off the wagon
00:05:05.940 sometimes i felt bad for myself i felt lonely i felt alone
00:05:10.340 i had to get back up on the wagon i had to get back up on the horse
00:05:15.220 in one case i had to start going to a therapist
00:05:18.000 to remind myself that i'm better than all that
00:05:23.420 that i deserve to be loved not by women 1.00
00:05:27.820 i don't look for love in the people i'm having sex with
00:05:31.420 yeah and i think that's the really successful men
00:05:37.580 in my opinion don't get a lot of joy from women 1.00
00:05:41.580 they're just kind of like eh they're like happy they're there
00:05:44.840 but it's like they can do without it
00:05:47.720 whenever a guy puts too much on to like women
00:05:50.060 it really holds him back in life
00:05:52.280 because he's gonna spend
00:05:53.300 he's gonna spend so much time trying to make her happy
00:05:56.260 and we can't we we're not happy people
00:05:58.600 it's just not who we are
00:05:59.980 as most of you know
00:06:02.200 i have been fighting on the front lines of the simp epidemic for years
00:06:05.900 but i need to tell you about a quiet weapon being ratcheted up against men
00:06:09.740 that is rarely talked about
00:06:11.100 it's not just the relentless anti-masculinity propaganda and only fans hoes 1.00
00:06:15.760 causing the societal issues that we discuss on this show
00:06:18.860 did you know that the average city's tap water contains trace pharmaceuticals and endocrine disruptors
00:06:24.520 this often includes estrogen from birth control
00:06:27.480 the average adult consumes a credit card worth of plastic every single week
00:06:31.360 that's five grams of plastic a week on average
00:06:34.080 so it's no wonder that the average male's testosterone is half of what the average was 50 years ago
00:06:40.220 testosterone levels decline one percent a year
00:06:43.140 and without a course correction we are headed towards extinction

00:07:41.160 love has to come from within
00:07:42.980 you have to love you
00:07:45.420 and the reason you boys get into so much trouble
00:07:48.880 and you have to call your professor for advice
00:07:51.000 is because in many cases you don't have faith in yourself
00:07:54.620 you don't love yourself
00:07:56.000 you don't think you're ever going to be anybody
00:07:58.060 I grew up
00:08:01.060 in one of the worst neighborhoods in the United States
00:08:04.280 there was no reason to believe I would ever be anything or anyone
00:08:08.700 had I been like so many of you callers
00:08:13.580 and just threw in the towel and said F it
00:08:15.920 I'll just get a job down at the Exxon station and be done with it
00:08:19.500 I wouldn't be standing here talking to you now
00:08:22.700 in my final class of Likas 101
00:08:26.700 I want to remind you
00:08:28.060 that if what you want to do is to get laid
00:08:30.920 you have to be successful
00:08:32.100 or you have to appear to be successful
00:08:33.640 and in order to do that
00:08:35.520 you have to love yourself
00:08:37.060 and believe in yourself
00:08:38.800 don't be expecting other people to pump up your ego
00:08:42.360 or pump up your self-esteem
00:08:44.120 it has to come from you
00:08:46.780 you have to believe you are great
00:08:50.800 you have to believe you are better than others
00:08:53.140 and if you don't believe that
00:08:55.280 then you need to become better than others
00:08:57.180 get more schooling
00:08:59.140 work harder
00:09:00.400 practice more
00:09:01.580 practice your jump shot
00:09:02.840 whatever it is you have to do
00:09:04.520 if you're not better than others
00:09:06.060 make yourself better than others
00:09:07.820 you'll get laid 0.83
00:09:11.200 you'll have money
00:09:12.620 you'll be able to breathe easy
00:09:16.440 when bad things happen
00:09:18.120 if there's one thing I've noticed
00:09:22.240 talking to thousands
00:09:23.820 tens of thousands of people
00:09:25.740 who've called in over the years
00:09:27.000 it's that so many of you
00:09:28.940 have no faith in yourself
00:09:30.460 you don't love yourself
00:09:32.560 you don't even like yourself
00:09:34.620 you don't think you're going to be anybody
00:09:37.440 and you live your life
00:09:38.640 like you're not going to be anybody 0.71
00:09:39.600 you have sex without commons
00:09:41.020 you take risks
00:09:41.900 you risk HIV
00:09:43.140 you risk impregnating people
00:09:44.640 you don't care
00:09:45.800 because you think there's nothing going on in your life anyway
00:09:48.320 there were times in my life
00:09:51.460 that I thought I wanted to commit suicide
00:09:53.420 when I was a kid
00:09:54.220 thank goodness I didn't
00:09:57.380 because I had no idea
00:09:58.780 how great it was all going to turn out
00:10:00.560 this is a really good speech
00:10:03.840 the piano just adds in the extra
00:10:07.120 the extra effect
00:10:09.540 the same will happen for you
00:10:11.620 but first you have to believe it
00:10:13.760 and you have to have reason to believe it
00:10:15.440 start loving yourself
00:10:18.780 start treating yourself like you're better
00:10:21.860 and that's how they get men 1.00
00:10:24.120 right
00:10:24.680 society always has to trick men
00:10:27.980 into thinking they're less valuable than they are
00:10:30.380 they have to trick men
00:10:31.780 into taking the job that underpays them
00:10:33.680 they have to trick men
00:10:34.660 into bailing out the single mother 0.98
00:10:38.000 accepting less from their woman 1.00
00:10:39.780 because society runs on the backs of betas
00:10:44.800 right
00:10:45.320 so men that like Leonardo DiCaprio
00:10:47.700 what if he got all those chicks pregnant 1.00
00:10:50.340 what would happen
00:10:52.260 what if he impregnated
00:10:53.540 he doesn't right 0.99
00:10:54.420 but for shits and giggles 1.00
00:10:56.500 what would happen if he impregnated all those women 1.00
00:10:59.660 just did exactly what he wanted all the time
00:11:01.900 society wouldn't function
00:11:04.220 but what happens is they have to trick men
00:11:07.140 into having low self-esteem
00:11:10.080 thinking that they're less
00:11:12.280 and doing more
00:11:14.660 doing more for nothing
00:11:16.200 accepting less from the people in their lives
00:11:19.260 and that's how society runs
00:11:20.940 it's on the backs of betas
00:11:22.200 yeah so
00:11:23.180 and it's
00:11:24.440 they don't like people like me
00:11:26.340 and people like Tate
00:11:27.400 and people
00:11:27.800 I'm sure Lycus had issues too
00:11:29.960 with monetization
00:11:30.820 and that sort of thing
00:11:31.760 because again
00:11:34.520 if you tell men
00:11:35.380 to accept less
00:11:36.540 and to do less
00:11:37.680 and to put themselves first
00:11:39.140 society will not know what to do
00:11:42.280 with all these single women 0.99
00:11:43.240 but it's not your problem
00:11:44.160 it's
00:11:44.920 women chose this 0.99
00:11:46.500 it's not your
00:11:47.420 you didn't
00:11:48.180 like
00:11:48.560 society wants to guilt men
00:11:50.840 into fixing society
00:11:52.280 when they didn't create this problem
00:11:54.720 like
00:11:55.780 they didn't make that woman 0.99
00:11:57.940 a single mother
00:11:58.720 right
00:11:59.140 they didn't
00:12:00.220 they didn't make that woman 0.99
00:12:02.400 get a bunch of debt
00:12:03.180 they didn't make that woman get fat 1.00
00:12:04.940 like
00:12:05.160 those are women's choices 1.00
00:12:07.160 right
00:12:07.620 they
00:12:07.900 they didn't make the woman 0.98
00:12:09.240 keep swiping on this credit card
00:12:10.900 and men have no authority in society 1.00
00:12:13.180 so they can't stop the woman from eating 1.00
00:12:15.080 they can't stop the woman 1.00
00:12:16.240 from swiping the credit card
00:12:17.540 they can't make the
00:12:18.460 like
00:12:18.840 they can't
00:12:19.800 they have no control
00:12:20.880 the only power men have
00:12:22.860 is cheating and walking away
00:12:24.380 and society is terrified
00:12:26.460 of what will happen
00:12:27.700 when men walk away
00:12:28.740 that's why they hate MGTOW
00:12:30.600 that's why they hate the red pill
00:12:32.140 because men are starting to say
00:12:34.640 well why am I even going to make all this money
00:12:37.100 if like women can take it anyway 1.00
00:12:39.860 why am I going to go for corporate America
00:12:42.440 if women can me too me 1.00
00:12:44.000 right
00:12:44.320 why am I even going to get a wife and kids 1.00
00:12:46.580 if they're going to fuck me 1.00
00:12:48.420 you know 1.00
00:12:48.800 and when men
00:12:50.480 you know
00:12:51.840 when men start saying
00:12:52.860 you know what I don't have to accept this
00:12:54.280 I can do better and I will
00:12:55.880 it's scary for women 1.00
00:12:57.860 right
00:12:58.440 because it puts the power
00:12:59.860 in the hands of the guys
00:13:01.060 because in society as a man
00:13:02.920 you have no power
00:13:03.700 right
00:13:04.080 the legal power
00:13:05.400 woman's side 0.94
00:13:06.240 the media is going to take the woman's side 1.00
00:13:09.400 corporate America is going to take the woman's side 1.00
00:13:13.360 so what do men have left
00:13:14.700 walking away and saying
00:13:16.520 I don't want to do this anymore
00:13:17.960 like what if men say
00:13:20.000 I don't want to work in factories
00:13:21.100 I don't need to have a wife and kid
00:13:22.800 I'm not working in a factory
00:13:23.860 I'm not Ubering
00:13:24.920 I'm not doing that
00:13:25.640 like
00:13:25.880 how is society going to run
00:13:27.880 and that's why I got demonetized
00:13:30.320 is because
00:13:31.080 if I
00:13:32.060 if I tell
00:13:32.640 I'm like telling you guys the secrets
00:13:34.220 than all this
