00:01:25.000 You can still have a soulmate and a beautiful family and do porn.

00:01:30.000 So, Molly, I don't think you're right.

00:01:36.000 And if it works for you, then you will definitely defy the odds.

00:01:40.000 No, I think it does work.

00:01:41.000 I think it can be proven that you can.

00:01:42.000 I know for a fact it works. 0.94

00:01:44.000 I have friends with kids and like friends who are in relationships, getting married, and they're very prominent doing porn, other people, having orgies. 0.96

00:01:53.000 Let me tell you all that jazz. 0.53

00:01:55.000 Yeah, let me tell you a true story about a young lady who went to high school near here.

00:02:01.000 When she started to get 15, her mom was a porn actress.

00:02:05.000 And all the other boys would constantly tease her and bully her because they would show pictures of her naked mother. 0.66

00:02:11.000 And it really, really hurt her.

00:02:12.000 Do you ever wonder that for your future kids, they might have to be confronted by that or teased or ridiculed by your line of work?

00:02:19.000 I know they will be confronted with it, but there's so many ways to answer this question.

00:02:24.000 But honestly, for one, I don't really care because to me, the way that I look at it and the way that I'm going to raise my kids says a hell of a lot more to me about the child who is instigating negative emotions in my child because of what I do for work rather than my child minding their own business.

00:02:43.000 Do you ever worry that you might be producing content that could be seriously damaging other people?

00:02:49.000 No.

00:02:50.000 Okay.

00:02:52.000 Charlie, you were about to say a little earlier: if you could wipe the slate clean, what was the question you had there?

00:02:58.000 If you could wipe the slate theoretically and re-virginize yourself, and would you?

00:03:06.000 Could you go back to the person you were as a virgin?

00:03:09.000 No.

00:03:10.000 I love who I am now.

00:03:10.000 No.

00:03:11.000 I feel like everything happened for a reason.

00:03:13.000 And I, I don't know.

00:03:15.000 I love who I am now.

00:03:16.000 Would I take back the people that I did?

00:03:19.000 Probably.

00:03:19.000 But yeah, like you said, it made who I am.

00:03:25.000 So, no.

00:03:28.000 I think I would definitely do some things different.

00:03:31.000 It's kind of ironic because this probably isn't you're looking for. 0.68

00:03:33.000 But if I was to start again, I'd probably lose my virginity for porn and do more porn things earlier on. 0.85

00:03:40.000 But yeah, that's just me. 0.88

00:03:41.000 But there's definitely some body counts that I do regret, just one nice stands and all them lame things.

00:03:46.000 What about they did?

00:03:47.000 Did you regret just the one I stand?

00:03:50.000 They weren't worthy or.

00:03:51.000 Yeah, just like a bad time or like weird people or like, you know, you get too drunk and you get in a situation you can't really get out of and stuff like that.

00:03:59.000 And in terms of then, all the stuff I do for work, I love that because that's like an art form for me.

00:04:03.000 So, yeah.

00:04:05.000 I want to circle back to something you said earlier, where you said that Molly's children, hypothetical future children, could be confronted with like her work, right?

00:04:14.000 And I think that that is not, I don't think there's any career path that precludes your child from potentially being confronted with what their parents say.

00:04:22.000 Like, I know that you're involved in like political work and stuff like that.

00:04:25.000 Do you ever worry that things that you've said online or done or political actions that you've taken might be like your daughter might be confronted by them by somebody who has like somebody's kid who has an opposing point of view?

00:04:34.000 I feel like that would like give a worry about something like that.

00:04:36.000 Well, she'll definitely be confronted.

00:04:38.000 It's just not videos of me having sex online.

00:04:41.000 No, but you've said like tons of controversial things, right?

00:04:45.000 So, do you expect that any of that could like have negative effects on her well-being or like how she's raised or anything like that?

00:04:51.000 Or do you think, and I say controversial, like neutrally and descriptively, like objectively, if your views are polarizing, that's going to incite conversation, debate, discussion?

00:05:00.000 Do you ever worry about like kids confronting her with these things and her not being prepared to know how to answer them or maybe feeling like bullied or embarrassed?

00:05:07.000 Yeah, I mean, that's that's a factor of being in public life for sure.

00:05:10.000 Yeah, and hopefully, um, hopefully, I build her strong up enough to be able to endure that, right?

00:05:15.000 Then I bet Molly thinks probably the same thing, right?

00:05:18.000 Like, just that sort of resiliency.

00:05:20.000 Do you think public political commentary is morally on the same plane as filming yourself having sex?

00:05:25.000 Yes, yes.

00:05:26.000 Yeah, I think people, if anything, it could sometimes be worse depending on what the person is talking about.

00:05:30.000 You know, worse, okay.

00:05:32.000 I think politics is definitely heavier than porn. 0.96

00:05:34.000 You think politics does more damage than porn?

00:05:37.000 For the actual life, like the world, yes.

00:05:41.000 Yeah, yeah, yeah. 0.61

00:05:42.000 Her having sex with other men is not disrupting the world. 0.97

00:05:45.000 Well, not just sex, but filming it in December. 0.57

00:05:47.000 I think you have disrupting the world. 0.99

00:05:49.000 And it gives them a release of their semen that they can't control stuff then, so they go jerk off to meet the molybden. 0.99

00:05:58.000 We're helping them. 0.99

00:06:00.000 Also, I feel like it's their choice to watch.

00:06:02.000 So, it's you know, it's not. 0.96

00:06:03.000 Well, I was also gonna ask how kids would know that someone's mom is a porn star.

00:06:09.000 How would they know that?

00:06:10.000 Internet's forever.

00:06:12.000 Yeah, but internet.

00:06:14.000 But why are I obviously kids?

00:06:16.000 It would be a parental failure, basically.

00:06:18.000 Like, the parents are not monitoring their child's consumption of media good enough, and therefore they find porn.

00:06:27.000 Hey, everyone, Charlie Kirk here.

00:07:34.000 Can I say one thing?

00:07:35.000 Absolutely.

00:07:35.000 Go ahead.

00:07:36.000 Go ahead.

00:07:36.000 Molly, I have sympathy for you.

00:07:38.000 You're trying to cope with the suppression of your soul.

00:07:38.000 I do.

00:07:42.000 And filming yourself having sex with other men and filming it is not the highest and best use of the talents that God gave you. 0.61

00:07:48.000 It's not.

00:07:50.000 That is a talent God gave me.

00:07:52.000 Well, it's not the highest and best use, and it's not a talent because, as I said, in my belief, it is should that should be saved in a sacred domain.

00:07:58.000 We're not going to agree on that.

00:07:59.000 But I hope you change course.

00:08:02.000 I think you'll be happier and more joyful, and I pray you don't have to suffer too much to realize that.

00:08:06.000 Well, in my belief, this is my most happy and joyful.

00:08:11.000 So, if Molly made like a huge pivot and started doing politics, would you support her political runs and bibs? 0.97

00:08:16.000 It's not a matter of politics.

00:08:17.000 I mean, I just want what's best for all of you here.

00:08:21.000 And I don't think filming yourself having sex with men is the highest and best use of your talents.

00:08:26.000 In fact, I think it personally has done a lot of damage to a lot of young men.

00:08:31.000 And don't take my word for it.

00:08:32.000 Look, you can read the book by Gary Wilson, Your Brain on Porn.

00:08:35.000 It is the number one drug in America right now, and it impacts men.

00:08:39.000 It definitely isn't healthy.

00:08:41.000 Okay, so it's not healthy.

00:08:42.000 So we agree.

00:08:42.000 So let me ask a moral question.

00:08:44.000 What do you guys think of drug dealers that push fentanyl?

00:08:48.000 Good people or not good people.

00:08:50.000 Probably not good.

00:08:51.000 So if we agree that porn is a drug, hold on, hold on a second.

00:08:51.000 Not good people.

00:08:56.000 If porn is a drug, how is Molly not either a drug dealer or a drug manufacturer?

00:09:02.000 It's different levels of fentanyl.

00:09:04.000 There's so many other drugs.

00:09:05.000 Like weed is not fentanyl.

00:09:08.000 Weed's mine.

00:09:09.000 Well, I wouldn't say weed is fine, but it is not as bad as fentanyl.

00:09:09.000 We agree.

00:09:13.000 But there's different levels of data.

00:09:16.000 Do you believe porn is a drug?

00:09:18.000 I think it's an addiction.

00:09:19.000 A drug is a nothing.

00:09:22.000 So what does porn do to the male mind?

00:09:25.000 I don't know.

00:09:25.000 I'm not a male.

00:09:26.000 Okay, yeah.

00:09:26.000 Okay.

00:09:26.000 It is the same biochemical release as cocaine.

00:09:29.000 It's almost identical.

00:09:30.000 In fact, it's even more powerful at times.

00:09:32.000 Not to mention the damage it does to their relationships and how it has to rewire their brain.

00:09:36.000 That goes without saying.

00:09:37.000 But I don't really see the comparison with fentanyl and porn, though, because fentanyl actually kills people and is highly addictive.

00:09:47.000 So I know right now, currently, like porn addiction is not recognized in the DSM-5 as a legitimate addiction.

00:09:52.000 The only behavioral-based addiction would be drug addiction, something like fentanyl or whatever.

00:09:56.000 Every other type of addiction is something that's like that you can't, or sorry, not drug-based, gambling.

00:10:01.000 That's what it is.

00:10:02.000 Gambling addiction is very real, but I don't believe porn addiction is.

00:10:05.000 I think you can have impulse control issues with porn, but that would be like any other thing that you could have difficulty controlling your consumption of.

00:10:13.000 Go ahead, Molly.

00:10:14.000 Please.

00:10:14.000 So my question is: I kind of have a comparison of my own, and I'll try and sum this up as fast as I can.

00:10:20.000 But basically, when prohibition happened, you know, people said that alcohol, it was not good for you.

00:10:27.000 It led to deaths, it led to arguments, negative things, whatever.

00:10:31.000 Prohibition happened.

00:10:33.000 People still found ways to have parties with alcohol, drink alcohol, speakeasies existed.

00:10:40.000 The only thing that happened was people didn't stop drinking alcohol.

00:10:43.000 People started getting arrested and punished for it.

00:10:45.000 And it started ruining people's livelihoods in that way instead of in a way that they have control over, meaning that they can stop the addiction by getting help at any time.

00:10:57.000 So my question is: if you think porn is so bad, like an addiction like that, what's your solution?

00:11:04.000 Because if you're going to get rid of it, it's still going to exist.

00:11:06.000 Well, the first solution, I mean, can you at least agree, Molly, that minors shouldn't be viewing porn?

00:11:11.000 Of course.

00:11:12.000 Okay, good.

00:11:15.000 Well, the age verification is a little problem.

00:11:17.000 Yeah, it is.

00:11:18.000 So let's talk about that.

00:11:19.000 Utah and Texas passed laws that Pornhub sued that made it more robust.

00:11:23.000 You had to actually provide an ID, and Pornhub didn't like that because they said it would limit their traffic.

00:11:30.000 So would you all agree that if there was robust ID checking that would like 18, we can at least agree we could draw the line there?

00:11:36.000 Yeah, I feel like that's the normal age.

00:11:38.000 Okay.

00:11:39.000 I'm glad to hear that.

00:11:42.000 So on the other side, though, I mean, I think we have to acknowledge that the average American male spending anywhere between 45 minutes to 90 minutes on porn websites, it varies.

00:11:53.000 I mean, this is a new phenomenon, and I just want to reiterate it, that highly interactive, three-dimensional video that triggers dopaminergic responses in the brain is unlike anything we've encountered.

00:12:06.000 The science is still being studied, and Gary Wilson's book is phenomenal on this. 0.51

00:12:10.000 You are brain on porn.

00:12:12.000 In fact, it is the most used, let's just say product. 0.98

00:12:15.000 We don't have to say drug, product for young men in this country.

00:12:18.000 And I guess you would all say that, let me just ask, how many of you are thrilled with the status of American men?

00:12:25.000 You think that they're strong and confident and they tell the truth?

00:12:28.000 I love an American mom as an Irish girl.

00:12:30.000 Definitely.

00:12:31.000 Okay, well then, you're the exception of the people.

00:12:32.000 They're all Americans are silent. 1.00

00:12:33.000 Okay, but hold on.

00:12:36.000 And I'm not going to say it's only because of porn because that would not be fair.

00:12:39.000 But porn consumption does not make better men.

00:12:42.000 You agree?

00:12:42.000 No.

00:12:43.000 I agree 100%.

00:12:44.000 So that's where I'm just trying to introduce into the conversation.

00:12:47.000 You said, what is the solution?

00:12:49.000 So I would just say, Molly, my advice, my ask for you is, you know, for people to stop participating in it, for that's not going to happen because the money is so good.

00:12:58.000 But we should draw the line at 18.

00:13:00.000 There should even be, it should be very, very hard to access.

00:13:03.000 But to your point, Molly, you're not wrong.

00:13:04.000 People would always find it.

00:13:06.000 But we should try to draw a line in the sand somewhere, especially with minors or have some sort of, you know, we should have some sort of acknowledgement that this is destroying parts of society.

00:13:16.000 And I won't say it's worse than fentanyl, but in some ways it's very, very sneaky.

00:13:20.000 A lot of married men watch pornography.

00:13:22.000 As I said, I've had my own personal struggles with it.

00:13:24.000 It's incredibly addictive.

00:13:25.000 It's incredibly powerful.

00:13:28.000 It also creates depressive effects in about half of the men that consume pornography.

00:13:32.000 And I would just say that, you know, young ladies, it affects women differently than men.

00:13:37.000 Men are 50 times more visual-oriented than women. 0.63

00:13:40.000 And that's not to say that women don't consume pornography. 1.00

00:13:43.000 They do in increasingly higher rates. 1.00

00:13:45.000 But I think it's a social toxin right now.

00:13:53.000 Hi, I'm Adriana, a politics major at Hillsdale College.

00:13:57.000 Here's Hillsdale President Dr. Larry Arn with a Constitution Minute.

00:14:00.000 America's founders recognized an obvious fact of life.

00:14:03.000 Human beings differ in terms of physical attributes and talents.

00:14:06.000 Because of this, some people will be better at some things than they are at others.

00:14:10.000 But they also recognize that the tall and the short among us, the swift and the slow among us, are still human beings if we are recognizable as human beings.

00:14:18.000 And therefore, we are equal in terms of the rights that pertain to human beings.

00:14:23.000 Rights attached to human nature, rights that come from God.

00:14:26.000 The Declaration of Independence names three of the big ones.

00:14:29.000 Life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness.

00:14:31.000 Exercising these rights is necessary if we are to be truly free.

00:14:35.000 In our own time, many influential people believe that only government can decide what our rights should be.

00:14:40.000 This is dangerous.

00:14:41.000 Understanding our rights and how the Constitution protects them is vital to our freedom.

00:14:46.000 To learn more and get a free pocket constitution, visit constitutionminute.com.

00:14:53.000 Wait, I have a question for you, actually, just because I don't really know who you are, but there's like a lot of people who are in the world.

00:14:57.000 You're very lucky.

00:14:58.000 You're very lucky.

00:15:00.000 I was just like, what do you do?

00:15:01.000 Because I've seen, like, you've mentioned politics and now that, like, what do you do?

00:15:04.000 I run an organization called Turning Point USA.

00:15:07.000 I am a conservative, if you haven't figured that out.

00:15:10.000 And a Christian, and I host a three-hour show every day in my name.

00:15:14.000 Okay, cool.

00:15:15.000 Yeah.

00:15:16.000 Let's.

00:15:17.000 I envy you that you don't know.

00:15:18.000 But yes, I'm sorry.

00:15:20.000 Totally fine.

00:15:20.000 Let's switch gears a little bit here.

00:15:22.000 So going around the table, asking all the girls here, would you date someone who does not align with your politics?

00:15:29.000 So if you're a liberal, would you date a conservative?

00:15:31.000 If you're conservative, would you date a liberal?

00:15:33.000 If you're a communist, would you date an anarcho-capitalist?

00:15:36.000 I guess, I don't know.

00:15:38.000 So tell us what your political orientation is going around the table and if you would date somebody who differed from you politically.

00:15:46.000 And if so, why not?

00:15:47.000 Starting with you, go ahead.

00:15:50.000 Honestly, I feel like it wouldn't be that big of a decision for me.

00:15:56.000 I wouldn't mind.

00:15:57.000 I feel like I'm not that strict about certain things.

00:16:02.000 And I feel like if I want to be with him, I'll be with him and accept him for whatever it is.

00:16:07.000 And maybe even try to, I guess.

00:16:12.000 Well, no, we can't agree to disagree.

00:16:14.000 I feel like on certain things I might actually.

00:16:18.000 I'm too indecisive.

00:16:19.000 Where do you fall politically?

00:16:19.000 Never mind.

00:16:21.000 Undefined.

00:16:23.000 Okay.

00:16:23.000 Undefined.

00:16:24.000 I'm not going to say it.

00:16:26.000 Okay.

00:16:28.000 Anarchy, anarchist, maybe?

00:16:30.000 I don't know.

00:16:31.000 Not even a hint.

00:16:33.000 Maybe you guys can pick up randomly.

00:16:35.000 Okay.

00:16:36.000 That'd be fun.

00:16:37.000 Communist?

00:16:38.000 I don't know.

00:16:38.000 Okay, Aaron.

00:16:39.000 What about you?

00:16:40.000 Yeah, I'm fine dating somebody who disagrees with me politically. 0.86

00:16:43.000 My boyfriend's like a liberal, you know, which is a filthy, filthy liberal, even though I'm further left than him, but I love him in spite of that.

00:16:43.000 I already do.

00:16:50.000 Oh, wow.

00:16:51.000 Okay.

00:16:52.000 So if you were to put a word to how you would describe yourself politically, are you a leftist?

00:16:57.000 Yeah, I'd say I'm on the left.

00:16:59.000 And your boyfriend's liberal.

00:17:00.000 Okay.

00:17:01.000 What about him?

00:17:03.000 It kind of depends how I honestly on both sides, it depends how hardcore they are because a lot of hardcore stuff like that I don't even agree with like on both sides.

00:17:16.000 So it would kind of depend on like what they believe in or like how hardcore they are with it.

00:17:22.000 But I think I could.

00:17:23.000 I don't really, I mean, I'm always down to have like discussions and conversations.

00:17:28.000 So I think I could.

00:17:29.000 As for my like political, I don't really care.

00:17:33.000 You don't care?

00:17:34.000 I would say I'm like in the middle, honestly.

00:17:36.000 Who did you vote for in the last election?

00:17:40.000 Or did you vote?

00:17:41.000 Most people don't vote for you.

00:17:43.000 I regret my vote now, but we can find an unfortunate.

00:17:48.000 Kanye?

00:17:49.000 You voted for Kanye?

00:17:51.000 That would have been a better choice, honestly.

00:17:53.000 No, I voted for Biden, unfortunately.

00:17:56.000 And you regret that?

00:17:57.000 I do.

00:17:58.000 Why do you regret that?

00:17:59.000 Do you see the state of the world?

00:18:01.000 I mean, like...

00:18:04.000 That's why I'm just in the middle.

00:18:06.000 Do you want to share?

00:18:07.000 I agree with stuff on both sides.

00:18:09.000 Good for you.

00:18:10.000 Pixie, what about you?

00:18:11.000 I'm a progressive.

00:18:14.000 My last date actually lasted 20 minutes because of this.

00:18:18.000 Wait, we have the tweets. 1.00

00:18:19.000 Nick, pull up her tweets really quick. 0.84

00:18:20.000 I saw your tweets.

00:18:21.000 The receipts.

00:18:23.000 Nick, go ahead.

00:18:25.000 Okay, I'm convinced I have to move to Miami so I can actually find someone to date next.

00:18:32.000 Today, my date lasted a total of 20 minutes because we found out the next.

00:18:39.000 At least it was a mutual decision on both of ours.

00:18:41.000 I'd rather figure out long-term incompatibility quickly than waste each other's time.

00:18:46.000 So on that date of yours where you were out on a date with a conservative man, who, like, was it kind of, you said it was a mutual thing, but was it more so you who had an issue with it?

00:18:55.000 Was it him?

00:18:56.000 Or it was mutual?

00:18:57.000 It was pretty darn mutual.

00:18:58.000 Like, what happened was we were in the car, we were going to go to a bar, and he asked me what I did for work.

00:19:03.000 So then I started talking about it, and he was like, would it bother you if I'm a hardcore conservative?

00:19:09.000 And then I was like, I was like, well, what do you mean by that?

00:19:13.000 Because some people are like, I'm a hardcore conservative.

00:19:15.000 And what they mean is like smaller government and less taxes, which is, you know, something I can like deal with.

00:19:21.000 And then some people are like, oh, you know, like Nick Fuentes style, like, Neo-Nazi, you know, like, so I asked him, and he actually, he actually said he was a huge fan of yours, which is like fine.

00:19:34.000 That's a deal killer.

00:19:36.000 Charlie.

00:19:37.000 Oh, okay, okay.

00:19:38.000 But no.

00:19:40.000 No, no, no.

00:19:41.000 But, and he was saying, like, oh, you know, I just like, I'm really.

00:19:46.000 Did he actually say that?

00:19:47.000 Yeah.

00:19:48.000 I like this.

00:19:50.000 But he was like, I'm just like really hardcore conservative.

00:19:53.000 And I was like, well, honestly, at this point, I feel like I would make you more upset than you make me upset.

00:19:59.000 And then you think so?

00:20:01.000 It seems to me the case.

00:20:03.000 It seems to me that typically it's liberals who are not prepared to be friends with conservatives.

00:20:08.000 I actually think they've done studies on this.

00:20:10.000 It's conservatives typically, from what I've seen, tend to, while they disagree ideologically, liberals just will outright hate somebody who's conservative and think they're like evil.

00:20:22.000 I think no, I don't like that.

00:20:24.000 I want to get to be friends with them so I can convert them into my leftist ideology.

00:20:28.000 How is my supposed to convert them?

00:20:30.000 Yeah, I come from a conservative family.

00:20:33.000 I have a lot of close friends that are conservative.

00:20:36.000 So to me, that's like, I'm not new to disagreeing with people.

00:20:40.000 That's just part of life for me.

00:20:43.000 But yeah, it's just like, I'm okay dating somebody who believes in like some different things than me.

00:20:48.000 It just depends on what extent.

00:20:50.000 Like, for example, if I want to have children in the future, and if my child, let's say, comes out as gay and my partner is like, we have to send them to conversion therapy. 0.99

00:21:00.000 To me, that's like a hard line.

00:21:02.000 To me, that's like, no, like, I couldn't put my children.

00:21:05.000 We can maybe come back to that specific thing.

00:21:08.000 But just curious, how did you meet him?

00:21:11.000 Oh, Hinge.

00:21:12.000 You met him on the internet?

00:21:14.000 Doesn't it allow you to disclose your political leanings on?

00:21:16.000 Yeah, I disclosed mine.

00:21:17.000 He didn't disclose his.

00:21:19.000 So where did he go on the data?

00:21:19.000 Okay.

00:21:21.000 Yeah, if he had such a big issue with it.

00:21:23.000 Well, okay.

00:21:24.000 We'll continue going around.

00:21:26.000 And then, did you have anything in response to her, Charlie?

00:21:29.000 No, I actually think you guys made the right choice, believe it or not.

00:21:32.000 I think you have to have value alignment.

00:21:33.000 I think you have to have worldview harmony and that you shouldn't date or marry people.

00:21:37.000 I mean, you have kids.

00:21:39.000 Are you going to have kids?

00:21:40.000 Or are you going to raise them religious?

00:21:42.000 I mean, just the amount of daily questions that come up in a marriage is, I mean, it's 500 a day.

00:21:48.000 And if you see the world differently, then that's a recipe for disaster.

00:21:52.000 So I actually think you guys made the right challenge.

00:21:53.000 I think you should end up, if you want to, if you end up marrying somebody who sees the world the way you do.

00:21:58.000 It would make you a happier marriage.

00:21:58.000 Yeah.

00:22:00.000 What if it was just one issue?

00:22:01.000 Like if I'm assuming that you're anti-choice, right?

00:22:04.000 Or pro-life?

00:22:05.000 Yeah, pro-life.

00:22:06.000 Okay, so if your wife is not pro-life, but everything else, you guys agree, would that be a deal breaker for you?

00:22:11.000 That one would be a deal breaker, yeah, because that's not like taxes, right?

00:22:15.000 That's not like, hey, you know, I believe in a 35% tax rate and I believe in a 20% tax rate.

00:22:21.000 It's like philosophical bearings.

00:22:22.000 That's right.

00:22:23.000 That's correct.

00:22:26.000 This is Dennis Prager.

00:23:30.000 I think I saw this. 1.00

00:23:30.000 Young women are becoming dramatically left-wing. 1.00

00:23:32.000 Young men are becoming more right-wing.

00:23:35.000 This is happening on every continent.

00:23:37.000 There's South Korea, U.S., Germany, UK.

00:23:41.000 Scroll down just a tad so we can see the UK here.

00:23:48.000 Okay.

00:23:49.000 So I'm curious why, and I'd love to, I mean this like non-sarcastically, I'd love to learn why do you think that trend is?

00:23:56.000 I think it's because one side wait, okay, so left is so I am not like politics.

00:24:02.000 That's all right. 0.99

00:24:03.000 So young women are getting more in like the Joe Biden direction of the Democrat Party. 0.99

00:24:08.000 Progressive.

00:24:09.000 And young men are coming more, you could say, in the Trump conservative direction.

00:24:09.000 Okay.

00:24:13.000 I think it's more of that reason because obviously the like the Biden side or whatever you want to say, that side has more of like women's like rights and stuff.

00:24:24.000 So obviously like, well, not right now, but like just in general, like that, the ideas of like that side have more like pro-women things and the other side really doesn't.

00:24:37.000 So I think that's why.

00:24:39.000 I'm going to ask my young progressive organizer.

00:24:42.000 Why do you think, because it's something that is.

00:24:45.000 I personally don't think it's very valuable to ask people to label themselves politically, mostly because if somebody does that, what I want them to do is like write it down on a piece of paper and then crumple it up and throw it away.

00:24:54.000 And usually just go issue by issue because I found that when you ask people what they mean by a conservative or whatever, like Pixie was saying earlier, sometimes they'll say, oh, like low taxes, small government or whatever.

00:25:05.000 But these are very nebulous terms.

00:25:06.000 But when you actually get into it, maybe they describe themselves as conservative, but more of the libertarian type.

00:25:11.000 So they might be pro-choice still.

00:25:13.000 They might actually be interested in a less interventionist foreign policy.

00:25:18.000 And then at that point, those are some like liberal tenants to me.

00:25:20.000 So I don't think it's very useful to even try to have people do that.

00:25:24.000 Or you might even find some liberals that are like anti-union, for example.

00:25:28.000 Yeah.

00:25:29.000 I was going to say, personally, I think there has been a big push to radicalize young men online.

00:25:36.000 You see this with the Tates.

00:25:38.000 You see this in some other forms of media.

00:25:40.000 So I think young men in particular have been very, what is it called?

00:25:45.000 Specialized.

00:25:46.000 You have these giant propaganda centers and networks focusing on trying to radicalize them in a way that they haven't necessarily put the equal focus on women.

00:25:53.000 So I do think that there's been a lot of online radicalization going on.

00:25:57.000 I also think, personally, I'm a feminist, but I think there has, like, feminism has kind of left men behind and kind of has not given them the answers that a lot of them are necessarily seeking.

00:26:09.000 So then they turn into these more of what I would call toxic figures instead for guidance.

00:26:15.000 So that's my answer when it comes to this increased radicalization. 0.51

00:26:22.000 What could conservatives do better to reach young women? 0.98

00:26:25.000 What could conservatives do?

00:26:26.000 It's not a trip-trap question.

00:26:27.000 I'm honestly curious.

00:26:29.000 I kind of don't want to give you that.

00:26:31.000 Well, I'll give you the answer.

00:26:32.000 Oh, it's a secret restriction.

00:26:33.000 No, I'm going to give you a question.

00:26:35.000 You're going to give it in front of 5 million people. 1.00

00:26:38.000 No, but I think a lot of conservatives really villainize young women and the choices that they take.

00:26:45.000 You see this, not in this particular podcast necessarily, but there's some that are more extreme than this that really focus on shaming women or putting some basically cultural hypocrisy, like saying it's okay for men to be promiscuous while women aren't.

00:27:00.000 Group 1 alone supports donated $200.

00:27:03.000 Thank you, Good.

00:27:03.000 I would not say young men have been radicalized.

00:27:06.000 I would say that young men are being reminded they are men and not women, and that real men value women because we are not equal.

00:27:14.000 Yo, thank you, Goodman.

00:27:15.000 Go ahead, Pixie.

00:27:15.000 Appreciate it.

00:27:16.000 And if you can, make your point quickly, because I do want to bring in everybody else so they can answer the original question.

00:27:22.000 Go ahead.

00:27:22.000 Yeah, but long story short, I think trying to not be hypocritical about how we treat men and women and not necessarily shaming women for their past or how they currently are is probably a better way to reach to them, my humble opinion.

00:27:36.000 Okay.

00:27:37.000 Okay, so honestly, I'm not too educated on politics that I can say I'm one thing.

00:27:43.000 But I do think that my views do lean more progressive.

00:27:43.000 Sure.

00:27:48.000 But again, I'm not too educated on the topic.

00:27:51.000 But I think I could date someone.

00:27:55.000 I have dated someone who was conservative.

00:27:59.000 But for me, it's more there's make or breaks, like you were saying about if your wife was pro-choice and you are not, that would be something that I could be like, oh, you know, that's where I draw the line.

00:28:12.000 Just certain things that, you know, morally, I could not be with someone who had those views.

00:28:18.000 What about you?

00:28:19.000 I'm not really big into politics either.

00:28:21.000 I don't really understand it.

00:28:22.000 All I know is that I'm pro-choice.

00:28:25.000 I like equality.

00:28:27.000 But yeah, I don't know.

00:28:28.000 I do agree, though, that you partner, you need to have the similar mindset.

00:28:33.000 So it might be a bit difficult if I was to be with somebody that had a very strong political opinion.

00:28:39.000 Usually I just go for people that are quite open-minded and chill.

00:28:42.000 But I think I could be open still because I like to learn new things when I'm with partners.

00:28:46.000 So it could open my mind even a bit more.

00:28:49.000 And I could probably learn about politics then.

00:28:51.000 Molly, what about you?

00:28:52.000 Well, I kind of, I agree with what you said.

00:28:54.000 I've actually, my ex-boyfriend was very prominent in politics and he's very conservative.

00:29:00.000 And I'm not at all.

00:29:04.000 So that was definitely like an interesting dynamic.

00:29:07.000 But I think overall we like really like respected each other's perspective.

00:29:15.000 And, you know, I don't think that like conservatives are evil or like they have like a bad agenda.

00:29:22.000 I just personally like I don't agree with what they would decide for me.

00:29:31.000 And so I think that in a relationship when you're with someone that shares different values, it would be extremely hard to be married to someone for the rest of your life.

00:29:39.000 It's doable, especially, you know, if you have that type of curiosity with the other person, but I for sure would want to be with someone who shares my kind of openness as well.

00:29:51.000 Okay.

00:29:53.000 And then Charlie, I think you kind of maybe already went over it, but I mean, do you have any thoughts on, you know, do you think it's a better idea for people when it comes to relationships or marriage to, I mean, I think I have a sense of what your answer would be, but to marry someone who shares their same political beliefs.

00:30:10.000 Yeah, don't try to change your partner.

00:30:13.000 That's a bad idea.

00:30:14.000 Agree.

00:30:14.000 Yeah, don't try to change your partner.

00:30:16.000 Don't.

00:30:17.000 Aaron, you said earlier your boyfriend, you said he's, well, he's not conservative, but he's liberal and you're much further left.

00:30:24.000 You're leftist.

00:30:26.000 And you said you would, you know, when it comes to perhaps people, you would be friends with someone who's maybe more conservative, so you can shift them more left.

00:30:33.000 I said that's a chic, but I was going to ask, have you shifted your boyfriend more left?

00:30:40.000 Okay, so he's pretty firm in his life.

00:30:42.000 He's firmly planted in his filthy, filthy liberalism, but I love him in spite of that. 0.93

00:30:45.000 I see. 0.99

00:30:46.000 Okay, got it.

00:30:47.000 But we align on a lot of social issues.

00:30:49.000 So if we want to create a dichotomy of social and not economic issues, I feel like the economic issues is primarily where we have disagreement.

00:30:55.000 And the social issues, those tend to be, I feel like, the most polarizing and contentious.

00:30:59.000 So if we had more disagreement there, we probably would not be able to be in a relationship together harmoniously.

00:31:04.000 Okay, I see.

00:31:05.000 But friends, yeah.

00:31:06.000 I'm open to radicalizing them, sure.

00:31:08.000 Okay, got it.

00:31:09.000 Got it. 1.00

00:31:10.000 So who here, I'm curious, who here considers themselves a feminist? 1.00

00:31:15.000 Maybe just show of hands. 1.00

00:31:16.000 Are you a feminist?

00:31:18.000 I don't. 1.00

00:31:19.000 That's it.

00:31:20.000 Just Aaron and Pixie?

00:31:22.000 Molly?

00:31:23.000 Yeah, Molly.

00:31:23.000 A little bit?

00:31:24.000 Okay.

00:31:25.000 All right. 1.00

00:31:26.000 So Charlie, we've got some feminists here. 1.00

00:31:30.000 What do you think of feminism? 1.00

00:31:32.000 I want them to define the term first, because there's no use in me giving thoughts on an abstract concept. 1.00

00:31:38.000 Sure.

00:31:40.000 What's your sense? 1.00

00:31:40.000 How do you define feminism? 1.00

00:31:42.000 Feminism is just simply the advocacy of equality, both social, political, economic, on the basis of all genders everywhere.

00:31:50.000 So that's what feminism is to me.

00:31:52.000 Do you concur? 1.00

00:31:53.000 I concur.

00:31:54.000 Do you concur?

00:31:55.000 Concurred.

00:31:56.000 Okay.

00:31:57.000 Okay. 1.00

00:31:58.000 So you want me to agree with their definition of feminism? 0.99

00:32:04.000 I mean, that would probably be the most agreed upon definition.
