00:01:20.920
today yeah and we're out and we're out that's all i needed to hear one of the few men i tolerate from
00:01:26.240
the internet how are you oh that's an i've actually i'm so happy you bestowed it upon me because that
00:01:32.340
just kind of gave me that i think i don't know if you remember the first time we interacted online
00:01:37.200
i think i do it was like you made a video that was supposed to be like satire i was like silly in
00:01:43.020
the beginning it was like it came off weird but then it was silly at the end yeah it was like i
00:01:48.260
was talking about like arm like woman with armpit hair yeah i was like this this goes up if you're a
00:01:52.800
woman you have armpit hair and there was like a slight little pause yeah i don't give a shit like
00:01:57.120
bring that ass over and everybody just immediately just like started tagging i was like what's happening
00:02:01.160
what's happening that's why i was like i always do my research and i was like he's not bad y'all
00:02:07.120
like this is not and i saw the video you made in response to someone tagging me yeah and you were
00:02:12.540
like you guys don't love me you're just trying to get me killed yeah then you were like don't worry
00:02:16.580
guys this guy's cool yeah dot dot for now and i was like okay she's watching me for now that's what
00:02:23.680
i would say healthy dose of fear never hurt anybody no that's what i think yeah i actually really do love
00:02:29.200
your content though i enjoy your content and you as a creator so that's why we're mutes yeah mutuals
00:02:35.400
forever and i've loved your content for a long time thank you i feel like i feel like the kind
00:02:41.520
of representation that you bring to social media is so important because it's it's like at the
00:02:47.640
intersection of like what it means to be a man which is our topic for today what it really means to
00:02:53.080
be a man whatever that means that that like whole sentiment is so differently defined depending on
00:02:58.960
your internalized biases yeah so i feel like you remind me of my boyfriend like someone who's
00:03:05.600
so incredibly comfortable in their sexuality and their expression their gender expression and who
00:03:10.880
they are as a person that they don't fear equality and they don't fear things like expressing yourself
00:03:18.260
through clothes through makeup through jewelry through nails whatever it may be that's what i love about
00:03:24.280
your platform no thank you i mean i've always kind of been that outcast growing up like i never really
00:03:30.500
had that person to look up to growing up it's like i kind of had to like go over the hill and get bullied
00:03:35.960
and i was like well i'm already getting bullied so i might as well just kind of yeah roll with the
00:03:40.200
punches so yeah uh so i've seen your videos too where you talk about wearing dresses wearing skirts and
00:03:45.840
how first of all clothing is engendered so it's not even that serious it's not a revolutionary idea
00:03:51.040
for someone who identifies as a man to wear a skirt but also you were talking about how like
00:03:55.880
you have always wanted to express yourself that way but never felt like or you could when you were
00:04:02.660
younger but kids are so mean when you're growing up especially in a heteronormative society so what
00:04:07.500
made you want to like really come forward and really start expressing yourself like was there
00:04:11.800
anything that happened was it more so like you just grew up and you were like you know what i choose
00:04:16.460
me i'm gonna express myself however i want um i think it's it's weird because so i started painting
00:04:22.040
my nails when i was 10 years old and it was like i didn't know what nail polish was i just saw this
00:04:26.340
wrestler called jeff hardy oh yeah and he painted his nails so i would just be in class and i would
00:04:30.820
paint a permanent marker but then i would paint them but i would hide them because yeah and like
00:04:35.880
at the moment it was like oh i was embarrassed i was humiliated but in hindsight i'm like
00:04:39.640
no i was truly doing that for me yeah you know what i mean because i still did it yeah but i just
00:04:44.740
didn't want anyone to see it but like i would look at him like oh this is so cool yeah and hide it and
00:04:48.760
i think growing up and you know getting bullied and i figured you know i'm gonna get bullied for
00:04:53.820
it anyways i might as well do it and then when i started doing the tiktoks and i remember there was
00:04:58.340
this kid um that made this video and he was wearing lipstick and earrings and nails and his mom
00:05:04.500
sending this video and he was like thank you so much for letting me know that i can be myself
00:05:09.660
oh that's so sweet and it just made me in that moment realize like okay this is bigger than
00:05:15.680
yeah than me yeah you know it's like absolutely because i can be that person that these kids can
00:05:21.300
look up to that like painting their nails and dressing feminine and whether they don't they don't identify
00:05:26.560
they don't know if they want to be yeah necessarily necessarily straight or queer or trans they just
00:05:31.460
want to express themselves yeah it's just it's just expression at that point yeah it's just expression so
00:05:35.640
yeah being that person that they can look at and point and be like oh it's okay for me to do that
00:05:41.280
yeah i think that's important yeah absolutely it is representation is one of the few things that
00:05:48.440
like makes me emotional but i i don't tell the man but i that's one of the few things that gets me
00:05:55.660
because it's so much more powerful than you realize and that was something for me too as far as like
00:06:02.160
my platform and what it is i do and what i look like and how i'm built and all of that is like so
00:06:09.580
important it's a big piece of your platform is like how you present to the world is so
00:06:16.660
representative of so many people who never get to see themselves in media yeah and like specifically
00:06:22.000
like for me um i'm someone so like someone people are non-existent in media unless you count the rock
00:06:28.740
which that's like if people say someone they're like oh like the rock like that's like the only
00:06:32.660
person they can reference which is true he is someone um and then there's like jason momoa but
00:06:37.140
he's hawaiian so it's like that's it there's no women really there is there are someone women in
00:06:42.300
in the media but they're not as well known as someone like the rock so you know like it's so rare for
00:06:49.700
someone people in general to be represented in a light that has nothing to do with athleticism that has
00:06:55.940
nothing to do with like their physical being it's like just in media like for being funny for being
00:07:02.180
smart for being a great singer for being talented in ways that don't rely on your physicality
00:07:06.680
so like when i first started getting messages about representation and how like much it meant to them and
00:07:12.800
how it makes them feel oh it makes me emotional i'm sure it makes you emotional no it does i think
00:07:18.320
um and i don't mean to like get deep and get into like you know philosophical or something like that
00:07:23.980
but i truly i truly there's something that like i learned through going to therapy is that you know
00:07:29.060
we have this idea of of happiness and it's like a destination but i feel like what we're really
00:07:34.600
looking for is like purpose and i feel like the universe gives everybody a set of skills to share
00:07:40.280
with the world to make the world a better place and i feel like that's what you've done with your
00:07:43.100
platform thank you is that you found this purpose and you're sharing that with the world and you're
00:07:47.420
you're this light that people can point to and be like because like not only are you representation
00:07:52.580
but you're also cool you know fashionable you're confident yourself you do these cool things and
00:07:58.060
people can look at you and be like oh i look like her yeah i can do that i can be that like
00:08:03.060
that's how i feel about yours same thing with you that's it's so important like to to see yourself
00:08:07.940
like to see someone who looks exactly like you or expresses themselves in the way that you want
00:08:13.680
to as well and not be afraid of criticism or judgment or anything because inherently as humans
00:08:20.560
we do fear judgment or being perceived in a way that's not aligned with who we really are
00:08:25.040
yeah and i feel like people like you are so important on the internet because you are showing
00:08:30.800
people there is no one right way to be a man or to present as a person as a as a man or as someone
00:08:37.120
who's manly or whatever that means like it's none of it's real yeah first of all and i even when i
00:08:42.560
talk about how gender expression well gender in general like the gender binary is a man-made construction
00:08:48.460
like exactly we've literally created it out of thin air like it's not real it's just something
00:08:54.540
we've created and we've adhered to for thousands of years so every time i bring that up people are
00:08:59.680
like oh you just like want to talk about that and i'm like that's just a different hornet's nest that
00:09:04.340
i've kicked before but it's literally because like it's true no it's so and and that's why once you let
00:09:10.700
it go you feel so much lighter i bet you felt so much lighter when you were like you know all this i'm
00:09:17.640
gonna start dressing and presenting exactly the way i want to yeah it's like it's the power of
00:09:22.380
just like being fearless yeah i'm sure and you know the amount of trolls and the amount of hate
00:09:27.320
comments you get i was gonna ask you about hate yeah a lot of hate oh it's ridiculous all the time
00:09:31.920
uh my favorite is like sometimes it's like really poetic like so it was like someone once said you lack
00:09:40.320
substance and nature and wildlife will celebrate when your life is absent or something like that and i was
00:09:47.280
like spin me a yarn yeah and i was like wow okay shakespeare like i was actually genuinely impressed
00:09:52.300
that like you took the time to be that poetic with your therapist yeah on her burner on their burner
00:09:58.140
account they're trolling you amanda is that you that's so funny oh my god but yeah like they really
00:10:05.780
take their time with that hate and i always just think to myself truly yeah and like especially when
00:10:10.040
they when they take time to make a full video essay about you oh my god like i know you get a ton of
00:10:14.100
the way a new white person finds me every six months and they're like this is why you think
00:10:19.340
that you're oh my god i can't imagine the effort it takes to like you set up you're like you know
00:10:24.140
what tomorrow i'm gonna wake up early and i'm gonna make a video about drew yeah and you know you know
00:10:28.360
the people that like make those videos essays about you have like 16 drafts where they start it up
00:10:32.480
they're like they press it and they're like they're like oh man i started a little bit it's like that
00:10:36.180
millennial pause when they're like and another thing and another thing and you know when you know that's not
00:10:41.580
right yeah they're like yeah you start they're like they're doing the timer thing where like they
00:10:46.680
can't get the right they're like trying to hit the 0.9 but it always goes like 0.1 like
00:10:49.920
there was one guy that obsessed over me for like this is not a joke like eight months like he
00:10:58.360
he literally would keep he would make 15 videos about me say the craziest shit like he called me a fat
00:11:04.800
cunt in one of them and then he said like that i was i was deleting his videos because i apparently i'm i'm
00:11:10.700
controlling the controls at tiktok apparently so like he called me that and he said it was my fault
00:11:16.100
that got taken down i'm all okay i you know and so he kept revisiting me and he literally was like
00:11:23.160
researching me and like was trying to like like connect all these dots that didn't exist and it
00:11:29.680
was like the craziest narratives he was building around me and it was so funny because someone at
00:11:34.140
one point like commented on one of his thousands of videos about me because he would make videos
00:11:37.500
get banned for like 72 days come back and then start over again like he kept doing it
00:11:41.340
and then like someone literally wrote hey man like i don't really like her either but like are you
00:11:47.320
gonna ever go back to your original content are you just gonna talk about her i was like i'm so dead
00:11:51.760
i'm so dead bro he's like okay i'm over it okay i'm over it i don't want to see it anymore bitch
00:11:57.680
thank you that's so good even the other haters are like you know what man like i'm a hater too
00:12:02.480
yeah yeah you're wearing you're wearing me out yeah this is a lot of hate this is too much hate
00:12:07.260
yeah for me yeah i'm a certified hater and this is a lot of hate at this point i mean are you ever
00:12:13.720
gonna go back to your original content where i was like damn don't your own followers yeah they're
00:12:17.440
all people turning against yeah yeah they're literally like okay enough yeah enough we get it
00:12:21.360
enough well you know how horrible you have to be for your own bigoted followers to be like
00:12:25.660
maybe we lay off yeah you know what i mean like they're they're tempting yeah they start turning
00:12:29.600
like you know she's actually not that bad like i actually the more you talk about her the more
00:12:34.160
i'm kind of changing my mind a little bit it's kind of cool like well that you're a perfect example
00:12:39.640
of how like if the shoe doesn't fit it won't bother you yeah so i've talked countless times but they
00:12:46.560
one thing they don't do is listen so like i've always said like everything i say is specific to the
00:12:52.100
person i'm talking to and specifically if you fall in that category i'm talking about you too bitch
00:12:56.940
yeah so if you're awful and you just so happen to be five two i'm gonna make fun of you for being
00:13:02.280
five two because you got to pick one it's literally in the bible so like it says like you can't be ugly
00:13:07.220
and short and also terrible like it literally says that so i'm i you're a perfect example of someone
00:13:12.700
who doesn't get offended because it doesn't apply to you yeah exactly and you're also really tall so
00:13:20.040
statistically i'm no scientist but clearly i'm right right so like no my boyfriend's tall
00:13:26.920
too and he's not horrible so the math simply is mapping too yeah i mean you know what's crazy
00:13:35.000
about those guys though is like i remember like i made this one video and i was like wearing a dress
00:13:40.620
and one of the comments was like you're gay right which is like i always look at that as like well
00:13:45.720
thank you like i have a lot of gay friends and they're super dope yeah so i tell you i like flip
00:13:49.220
it i'm like oh yeah i get those about being trans they say that to me all the time and i'm like
00:13:53.220
that's not an insult to me but okay yeah but like as okay so as a man i went and i was like i made a
00:13:58.700
video making fun of that comment replying to it of me wearing a dress and heels lipstick wig i went to
00:14:04.320
the gym yeah and then i like bench press three plates and like i'm responding to i'm like all right
00:14:09.300
point number one do a press and i'm like being gay there's nothing wrong with that yeah yeah did
00:14:16.300
another one of 315 and then all of a sudden i got a bunch of guys like oh this guy's pretty jacked
00:14:21.220
i guess it's pretty cool one thing it's like it's like what like where they cannot fight is like
00:14:27.640
is that it's like physical fit they cannot fight that like it's like an illness yeah it's but i just
00:14:33.500
don't understand like it's like this like caveman mentality of like truly i thought you were gay but
00:14:38.980
then you lift heavy weight and now i man lift heavy man not gay man not gay clearly he can't be
00:14:46.180
that's science yeah i live more than i live it's literally like you know when you like put up a
00:14:51.640
homing signal and then like all these things like have you ever seen wreck it ralph of course okay you
00:14:56.280
know how like the scene in wreck it ralph when they do the little light and all those bugs are like
00:15:00.020
yeah they fly to it that's literally men with the gym like men like that as soon as you show that
00:15:07.140
you're like physically fit or strong they're like oh they're like oh he's cool yeah like yeah exactly
00:15:13.400
like everything's a race like it's just no other thoughts other than man lift heavy that's it yeah
00:15:18.920
and then it's like i'm lifting in like heels like that and then they're like hmm that's impressive
00:15:23.240
the heel leverage it's like what is that good for your calves yeah like how'd you find the weight
00:15:28.840
it's like bro you're missing the point you're missing the point you're literally missing the point
00:15:33.540
it's it's the same deal with my boyfriend being like obviously my boyfriend was in the fitness
00:15:39.920
industry for a long time so my boyfriend was a personal trainer like and he worked at a commercial
00:15:44.580
gym then he went private and then he was he had his own personal training business which by the way
00:15:49.020
the crazy this is off topic the craziest rumor i've ever seen was that my dad was a cop who funded my
00:15:56.460
boyfriend's personal training business that's something the little white kids are telling each other on
00:16:00.600
tiktok what i said girl what does they're like calling me a nepo baby but like because my dad
00:16:06.780
was a cop i'm like what what what what what are the requirements of being a nepo baby i feel like
00:16:12.620
ever since this term became popular apparently like if your dad's a cop then he gives you almost eight
00:16:17.900
million followers on tiktok yeah apparently so anyways back to my boyfriend like he would get uh because
00:16:24.400
he's like physically in shape and he's not ugly right so and he's tall and he looks like what they
00:16:30.140
deem to be like a manly man or whatever just like you they're like oh uh this guy looks so good but
00:16:38.060
he's dating a mean bitch and so they'll be like i hate your girlfriend but you look really good
00:16:45.200
like they'll literally dm him that they're like hey man sick sick lips like hey honestly i i need a
00:16:52.160
little couple tips on my bench like just out of curiosity also i hate your fat bitch girlfriend just
00:16:56.360
by the way yo that's they do that all the time it's my boyfriend all the time it's the weirdest
00:17:00.940
thing it's so weird it's so weird and it's like and it's like they're projecting this thing you know
00:17:08.280
i don't know if you know i'm gay it's like they're it's like don't you find it whether you're like oh
00:17:11.700
this she's such a mean bitch blah blah blah but yo sick physique yeah but like you
00:17:16.600
what's your lip split bro are you doing like upper body like if i wanted to grow my biceps
00:17:24.240
like what would your best tips be for that yeah it's just such an illness i told you it's literally
00:17:29.060
that's literally what they do they turn into i literally i had this conversation with uh
00:17:33.360
one of my one of my friends she's she's lesbian and we were like having this conversation about
00:17:38.140
how like when guys call me gay i'm like the most this would be the most extreme solution yeah but
00:17:43.180
like if a guy's like oh you're gay and i'm like well thank you but i'm not but we can solve this
00:17:47.820
like what if we just like drop our pants yeah put on some gay porn kiss me on the lips right now yeah
00:17:53.720
kiss me let's let's see let's make out and see who gets hard let's let's let's just try it out man
00:18:00.700
listen let's see i may tell a joke but i never tell a lie yeah you know that's that's and it's also
00:18:07.920
it's so i think it's like their brains like literally short-circuiting because they've been
00:18:14.040
conditioned to believe this very specific idea of what a man should be yeah and then also what
00:18:21.800
women should be and there's they don't believe in non-binary people of course they don't they
00:18:25.880
don't believe in trans people of course they don't and so when you're operating within this
00:18:29.780
gender binary they're like well if women are loud if they talk back if they're independent if
00:18:34.720
they don't like if they're rude whatever they consider to be rude or mean um then they're gonna
00:18:39.000
they're clearly fat they're clearly single and they're clearly like literally this guy recently
00:18:43.900
made a video about me unprovoked i've never seen this man in my life but his name had the word karate
00:18:50.380
in it so do with that what you will but he literally was like don't talk about me now don't
00:18:56.360
hey don't talk about me now like as if i was talking about like he it's almost like i came in
00:19:01.340
halfway through the conversation i was like i tweeted the video i'm like does anyone know why
00:19:06.000
this guy's talking to me like i know who he is like i've never seen this man in my life and he
00:19:10.000
was like i'll hurt your feelings i'll i'm mr disrespectful like he said this whole thing
00:19:14.800
and uh this girl stitched him and she tagged me in it and she was like i'm just curious like
00:19:20.520
what could you say like at this point what do you think she hasn't heard at this point and she's
00:19:25.360
like she's you guys call her fat and ugly you guys make fun of her looks like she's not single
00:19:30.400
her man's hot she's rich like she has a career she's busy what do you think you could say to her
00:19:37.340
like at this point like what do you think you could say that would bring her down for real
00:19:40.240
because she was like for real like you you're gonna make her quit with your insults how and also like
00:19:46.400
i don't understand these guys like go after you for like like what sort of clout do you think
00:19:51.540
they're gonna gain from that i don't know a bunch of like women are gonna come to their page
00:19:55.620
also shit on them and then what do they think like manscaped is gonna come out the world
00:19:59.440
you want to manscaped you want a ball shaver dude like gym sharks yeah like get that guy in my office
00:20:06.800
yeah we need that athlete i i've said that before i'm like because sometimes random dudes with huge
00:20:12.340
followings will get these like they'll go through these spells where they're like i should attack drew
00:20:18.440
and then they like make a video talking about how much they love andrew tay and they hate me
00:20:23.520
and then they lose like hundreds of thousands of followers like immediately they get overrun
00:20:29.180
and i'm like if you don't like me keep it to yourself exactly if the girls find out
00:20:34.800
they will not be nice to you yeah they will not be kind to you i don't understand like the the
00:20:41.960
mental like gymnastics they go to yeah there's no future in that there's none the same with people
00:20:48.100
who attack you there's no future in that like you think you're gonna build a platform off being a
00:20:53.180
horrible person like then they'll be like you're the horrible person you have a platform clearly i'm
00:20:58.480
not yeah clearly i'm not so like and then it's like freedom of speech i can say whatever i want it's
00:21:04.720
like sure true but no one has to like you also that's true yeah exactly no one's entitled no one has
00:21:09.600
to listen to you no one has to agree with you yeah and that's our and also that means i get to call
00:21:15.860
you ugly so like when they say freedom of speech i'm like freedom of speech okay that applies to me
00:21:20.900
too yeah so i can say whatever you said something about me like sometimes they'll write like these
00:21:25.800
terrible comments in my videos and they have no pictures obviously and then i'll tell them send
00:21:30.620
me a picture of you i dare you i dare you send me a picture right now i will post it and i will talk
00:21:35.640
about what you look like it's always no photo a cartoon character an anime character yeah or that
00:21:41.420
little alien yeah default one that's on there or it's like a picture of like their back like
00:21:46.360
like they're like dude the back pics oh my god sometimes give me some pussy today yeah sometimes
00:21:53.260
i see him and they're like in the middle of their gym progress like my boyfriend's described it as
00:21:59.100
like you could tell this guy just started going to the gym because of the way they act and the way
00:22:03.620
they talk and and they write hateful things on my videos and so sometimes i'll just write like you
00:22:09.260
don't look very good yeah that's it eats them alive hey your your your progress is not very good
00:22:14.720
yeah they read that comment and then they immediately put on like one of those motivational videos like
00:22:19.200
those men only yeah the ones are like there's a dude in a suit and he's walking in slo-mo and it's
00:22:25.440
like they don't know that i'm a villain now yeah it's the beginning of my villain era yeah it's like
00:22:32.080
devil emojis or whatever patrick bateman they always have him or it's like some it's like a batman
00:22:38.400
and it's not even like a batman quote it's like batman suiting up taking off his mask
00:22:42.640
and just some random dude like yeah the road never ends just like that phony inspirational
00:22:49.860
yeah oh my god the tea about that is that i'm the real batman no fact you know what i mean like i'm
00:22:55.320
i'm the real batman like i take it a little too far when i'm beating up terrible people you know what
00:23:00.860
i mean nobody asked me to do it but i just took it upon myself to go find people and be awful to them
00:23:06.760
you know what i'm saying nobody asked me to do that yeah it's like two minutes into your video
00:23:10.760
it's like oh drew drew i think he said no i think he's like oh you want some like that batman audio
00:23:16.700
do you want some more you want some no no i'm good i'm good yeah it's literally like me taking it upon
00:23:22.720
myself to go and fight crime like no one asked me to do that but i kind of just did it no i love it
00:23:28.240
and then the city always debates the morality of how i do it it's literally me i'm batman literally
00:23:34.700
when i watched black adam i was like literally me yeah it's so nice to see yourself represented on
00:23:40.280
screen anti-heroes that's my thing that's my vibes okay so obviously we went over we're going to talk
00:23:47.360
about what it means to be a real man with quotes obviously because neither of us believe in the
00:23:51.800
gender binary we don't operate within it uh we don't think it's the only thing that we should
00:23:56.940
operate within so what we like to do here on the comment section is we bring videos that are
00:24:01.660
applicable to our topic and then we kiki we laugh about them tear them apart whatever's necessary
00:24:06.700
so this first video says this older guy is wearing a suit talking to the camera and he says that being
00:24:14.400
a real man means being head of the household and being the main financial provider he says it's his
00:24:20.940
responsibility to make sure he provides shelter food and clothing to his family and that men these days
00:24:26.200
need to get a backbone yeah so okay where do we start with this i okay so funny i'll start i'll
00:24:35.200
start here i'll start yeah is so i saw that video oh did you yeah i think i know is he in a car
00:24:40.320
talking if i remember correctly he might just be some no no i think not that he lives in his car i'm
00:24:45.980
just yeah was he in the car when he filmed the video i can't remember i think he was just like on a
00:24:50.860
couch oh okay with like a suit on or okay i got it got it and um so just for you know shits and gigs
00:24:58.660
i was like i just googled like is being being a real man you know i mean and i found like these
00:25:04.320
the first searches were like either like self-help books on how to be a real man or people asking the
00:25:08.580
question on forums of um what's the difference between a good man and a real man which i was like
00:25:13.720
okay red flag red flag that this is like horror nothing but horror and all those corners yeah
00:25:20.680
exactly and i'm like this is so weird that like that men need feel the need to differentiate like
00:25:26.580
a good man versus like is a good man necessarily a real man yeah what a strange division like they're
00:25:34.580
like those two things can't be the same exactly it's like growing up it's like growing up they've
00:25:38.980
been taught that like in order to be a real man it's like you gotta be awful yeah you have to be
00:25:43.600
this bad person you have to stand up and be like no my way or the highway because i'm a man and i
00:25:48.340
know best but like the way that i grew up is like slippery slope but the way that i grew up is like
00:25:53.860
around a woman much like yourself they're like strong independent single parent home it was me my mom
00:25:59.520
and so when i was growing up femininity was like strength powerful yeah it was never like the man the
00:26:07.960
house wasn't taking care of stuff like my mom was the badass my mom my dad left my mom never asked
00:26:13.060
for child support my mom was like if you're not gonna be around i don't want your money yeah i'll
00:26:17.080
take care of this myself and she held it down so it was like me growing up looking at femininity i've
00:26:21.380
always been like i never saw like masculinity being stronger or better than because i was like my mom's
00:26:26.520
badass yeah literally she's a woman yeah women are badass yeah so it's like your vision on the world
00:26:32.780
is so different from what like heteronormative like extremely bigoted view of women has been for
00:26:40.300
other men yeah yeah so i think with that video it's like sure there's certain aspects of that like
00:26:47.360
yeah you want to be kind you want to take care of the people that are around yeah you know i'm saying
00:26:52.120
but i think at the end of the day being a man just comes down to just being a good person yeah like
00:26:58.940
really quite simple yeah i always think they over complicate things when they try to like search
00:27:05.740
for the deeper meaning it's like if you're just a good person i think you'll be okay like life will
00:27:11.300
work out the way you want it to men always over complicate yeah it's like even with like those
00:27:15.720
like gym motivational things it's always like it's like wake up 5 30 blah blah take a cold shower
00:27:21.760
take a cold shower think about what you've done work on things every single day and you'll be
00:27:25.720
successful and it's like well yeah if you practice and you work at something every single day like
00:27:29.940
yeah inherently you will be inherently you will eventually if i play trumpet every single day
00:27:34.300
starting now a year from now i'm gonna i'm gonna be perfect yeah i'm gonna be all right proficient at
00:27:39.260
it yeah as long as you're consistent yeah i didn't need some guy with a suit and tie with an audiobook to
00:27:44.240
tell me over 18 chapters that shit like no literally and it's also i feel like a lot of times too that
00:27:50.580
that idea of a man that's projected through like self-help books depending on who it is a lot of
00:27:58.340
times it can it's just a veiled misogyny like it's like a it's almost always void of empathy they're
00:28:05.720
like you can't feel anything negative or sad or not even really joy like the only feeling you should have
00:28:14.520
is like motivation driven by negativity like it's like you can't feel anything that's not
00:28:21.100
like driving you towards like success in whatever way and that mentality is feeds into capitalism
00:28:28.200
it's like a capitalist mindset it's like you have to work this many hours for this many days for this
00:28:33.940
many years in order to live a successful life which we've since proven is not true yeah and it's like
00:28:39.300
it's just it all ties together like misogyny white supremacy capitalism like it's all literally a
00:28:44.600
never-ending loop and that's why i'm always like aren't you guys like well first of all when men are
00:28:50.480
like you have to be the main provider you have to be this this and that uh when i've talked about that
00:28:56.280
and why it's problematic to have those beliefs they're like oh so you don't think that men should
00:29:01.740
provide for their for their wives and i'm like i never said that i said it shouldn't be
00:29:07.900
beholden to only them like and if your wife makes more money than you don't be a dick like get your
00:29:15.160
bread up but yeah you know what i mean instead of getting your funny up get your money up exactly
00:29:19.760
that's what i always think yeah so i always i'm always like it's first when men say like that say
00:29:25.740
that they make no money at all which is the irony they're like why i'm the provider and they make like
00:29:31.240
30 000 a year what are you providing for you could barely provide for yourself off that money like
00:29:36.280
what do you mean family what do you mean house you know what i'm saying you're renting yeah easily
00:29:40.920
babe that's okay like and and that's fine but don't act like you're this big baller like it's the
00:29:47.320
same dude that fears gold diggers yeah they're like oh these women are just after my money what
00:29:52.600
money yeah what money babe they're the ones that believe those prank videos of guys with the
00:29:57.820
lamborghinis yeah a girl walks past and it's like do you want to date me no all right click click
00:30:02.000
lamborghini she's like oh no wait yeah and then guys believe those videos and they're like see
00:30:05.980
yeah and i'm like that's staged exactly those are actors babe yeah yeah no one does that no one
00:30:11.960
does that like and if they do like okay that's why i always say like men like this who um because
00:30:17.180
it's the same shit with like the masculine energy feminine energy which i made a video that like made
00:30:23.460
the spiritual white people so upset with me because i was like that's not real because male and female
00:30:30.820
gender binary is not real like it's a product of colonization yeah and uh they were so mad at me
00:30:36.100
when i said that and i was like it's just that's if you believe it is that's fine i'm telling you
00:30:40.340
historically not all cultures adhere to a gender binary many of them didn't before being colonized
00:30:46.020
yeah that's a fact so including my own so and i was like so you can believe whatever you want i just
00:30:51.580
that's not real to me so i don't think it's real energy is energy regardless but when within that
00:30:57.560
they were like oh well men want to provide and like take women out of their soft era and put them
00:31:02.740
in their fem like or no take them out of their masculine era and put them in their feminine era
00:31:07.980
which i'm like what's the difference between saying that right oh i just wanted to take care of you
00:31:13.760
yeah and being like you should stay home because i'm the man and i should go to work what's the
00:31:18.240
difference there's no difference like just because you use fancier words doesn't mean it's
00:31:23.100
anything other than misogyny yeah and i was like and those same men asked them how they feel about
00:31:27.980
women who only date for money i bet they don't like it something tells me they don't like it you
00:31:35.700
know what i mean and a secure man wouldn't care how much money they're no female partner makes like
00:31:41.080
if they made money yeah the more money the merrier that's what i'm saying yeah how much more you make
00:31:48.140
double what i make sounds like a great life yeah sounds amazing that sounds great sounds like you're
00:31:53.240
doing very well for yourself sounds good to me that's what i'm saying it's funny too because sometimes
00:31:58.820
men were like oh about my boyfriend they're like oh bro got in before like like he's using me for my
00:32:05.540
money and i was like we've been together for six years like we've been together when we neither of
00:32:11.700
us had money like no money to rub together let alone now like what would be the difference yeah and
00:32:17.880
i'm like well it's funny because you don't have a partner or money yeah maybe worry about you but
00:32:22.060
like you're oh for two right now it's it's so hard for them to just mind their business no truly just
00:32:28.180
mind your business i literally said uh when i was talking to delara in my last episode i was literally
00:32:32.660
telling her i'll never truly be alone yeah there will always be a white man in my business bitch
00:32:37.740
they will always be in there they'll always be there somewhere rummaging around yeah you just
00:32:42.220
have to look through the comments and you'll find them and they're always there my biggest fans yeah
00:32:45.840
my biggest supporters you've been here for a while man i appreciate you you don't follow me but you
00:32:51.080
don't you never skip a video no literally sometimes do you ever see that they're following you
00:32:55.060
they write hate and then you look oh yeah i've seen that yeah and i'm like wait interesting
00:32:59.920
interesting and i said like i literally go follow back huh i said should i follow you back yeah and
00:33:05.540
then they'll write i only follow you so i can watch like watch the train wreck come on so you follow
00:33:12.600
me and watch me that's a fan yeah you're a fan yeah you're a fan i follow you so i can hate you
00:33:18.080
tell you how much i hate you it's like okay okay that's like love but yeah you sound like a psychopath
00:33:23.860
yeah okay yeah for sure do you uh okay speaking of comments so the comments on this video this one
00:33:31.440
says what makes me a man is my integrity and my character the ability to provide for your family
00:33:37.040
is only part of it it means nothing without character i mean yeah i guess depends on what
00:33:44.680
you mean by that yeah sometimes like what is your character yeah what do you mean integrity about
00:33:49.820
what yeah you know what i mean like it's in theory yes this is fine but i always feel a little
00:33:57.260
yeah it's like what's the motive behind that like yeah my character but my character is also i hate
00:34:04.040
women my character is misogynistic too yes okay this one says what about women they want they want to be
00:34:13.880
that now i'm assuming he means like the man in the relationship and then this person said they
00:34:19.160
have to be that because men are falling so far behind that's t that's a word bitch yeah that's
00:34:25.440
t honestly well i don't know if he means that in a way that's supportive of women or in a way that's
00:34:29.960
like toxic masculinity like you know they're like a men are not even men anymore like that type of
00:34:34.860
mentality i think that's where i'm gonna lean on it probably yeah i'm giving him too much credit
00:34:38.820
yeah considering that this was on his for you page i'm gonna lean on the toxic masculinity side
00:34:44.860
yeah where they say like it do you get those comments a lot where they're like this is what
00:34:49.940
men look like now or whatever yeah all the time all the time all the time and i think it's very
00:34:54.620
important that like um when they make when they say stuff like that like oh look at what men have
00:35:00.540
become like yeah men used to go to war and do this and it's like okay do you want to go to war
00:35:07.580
like i don't like i mean no one's stopping you no one's stopping you like you can go yeah you can
00:35:12.600
apply you are more than welcome to go right ahead they have help wanted signs yeah which is like
00:35:17.540
they're literally like please someone sign up in the military because people have peeped game about
00:35:21.340
how awful it is to be in the military yeah like that's always their go-to is like men used to go
00:35:25.220
to the military and be in the army and it's like and you're saying this from a room in your mother's
00:35:32.400
house with podcast lights with a microphone and headphones on your head a picture of harry styles
00:35:39.460
no oh my god i know who was literally like the most wanted man in the entire no shit oh my god
00:35:46.640
dude the way that they were so up in arms that's another thing too though that i think like especially
00:35:51.420
for you because i know you vibe with this in the same vein as me um maybe not to the same degree
00:35:57.720
obviously um because mine is probably not as bad as yours but like when people say these awful
00:36:03.760
things especially about how you dress or how you express yourself a lot of times it's racially
00:36:07.800
charged like always like 900 times out of 10 it's racially charged that happens with me too like i
00:36:16.020
always think like if you looked like harry styles it wouldn't be as big it wouldn't be at nearly as
00:36:21.320
violent or as like aggressive you know what i'm saying like they would like not to say that you don't
00:36:26.960
have followers that defend you because you do but the hate itself would be like so much less
00:36:33.140
like visceral i guess is the word i'm looking for you know what i mean no it's like i'm so happy you
00:36:38.360
brought that up because i didn't like that's always been a thing where like me wearing makeup or doing
00:36:43.580
my nails it's like any room i go into anybody i talk to like the first comparison is always like oh
00:36:48.840
lenny kravitz dennis rodman yeah and like that's where it ends yeah yeah you know what i mean but it's
00:36:54.800
like if i if i were white it'd be like oh like harry styles yeah bon jovi yeah david bowie yeah like
00:37:02.260
they would name like list off all these white people and it's like yeah it's cool if you're
00:37:05.860
white to do it because it's rocker and it's exactly exactly well and dennis rodman and lenny
00:37:12.280
kravitz are perfect examples of people that did not express themselves the way that people expected
00:37:18.180
them to and at the time they hated them for it exactly what happened they they got a lot of hate and
00:37:22.900
shit for it at the time but they had no problem with women did they no no they did not it's the
00:37:29.200
weirdest thing and i'm like i'm not saying like oh i'm this like you know woman savant yeah i don't
00:37:35.140
even know the word i'm sorry savant i've never used that word before yeah but it's like all the men that
00:37:40.900
hate on my stuff will hate on it and there's like hundreds of comments of women that love what i'm
00:37:45.720
doing yeah yeah and a man will be like men this is terrible men don't do this and a woman be like
00:37:50.000
i really like it like no you don't you're a liar and it's like okay well okay well okay not
00:37:55.940
understanding the yeah you're like oh okay well if you're gonna tell me what i'm feeling then you
00:38:00.860
don't need me for this conversation yeah it's like i don't understand men that like they'll go to men
00:38:05.220
to learn what women want god you're telling me you're telling me a woman will be like no we like
00:38:12.220
this no you don't this guy over here yeah they're like this guy over here super jacked and he said
00:38:17.500
that women want oh my god it's just like that guy like recently i've seen him who said like uh
00:38:23.160
menstrual cycles aren't natural he said he said a lot of women don't know this i'm like pause
00:38:29.720
pause pause pause pause do you have a uterus no right okay invalid immediately i don't need to hear
00:38:38.600
anything else anything else he literally i'm not kidding he's done like a series on it i keep
00:38:44.620
getting tagged in the videos but there are countless like gynecologists like gynecological
00:38:51.100
physicians stitching his thing and being like what are you saying yeah you don't even know what you're
00:38:57.140
saying like he's literally saying that like oh my god and then some people are like yeah i followed a
00:39:02.580
plant-based diet and like my period just stopped coming i'm all that's not a good thing girl like
00:39:08.580
bitch go to a doctor oh my god that is not a good thing oh my god the way that it's like and he's
00:39:15.500
like no you guys don't know you don't know they don't know that i know this as someone who's never
00:39:21.840
had a uterus they don't know that i know this how are you mansplaining a menstrual cycle as that's
00:39:27.340
insane to me the most i've never seen anything i thought it was a bit yeah to be honest i was like
00:39:32.240
that's not real like you know how they do like they they'll do like daily show skits on it or like
00:39:37.420
comedy sketches where it's like men trying to tell women about their own bodies which is not
00:39:41.800
unnatural it's not out of the ordinary for women and femme presenting people in general
00:39:47.160
but the fact that he's dead serious he's dead serious he's like no no back in caveman times
00:39:55.520
they didn't have one i'm all how do you know were you there you know what i mean that's i think that
00:40:00.240
all the time too when they're like back in the day men women and men used how do you know
00:40:04.240
yeah you weren't there you're just you're just saying things show me the time traveling machine
00:40:08.820
other guys i don't give a shit about what you're saying they watched a few seasons of mad men and
00:40:13.600
they were like back in the 60s men used to drink liquor take me back to those times i'm like suits
00:40:20.260
and whiskey when they're like yeah back in the day was better i'm like during how far back are we going
00:40:26.920
because that's problematic yeah you want to go back to those times when most most people that were not
00:40:34.160
straight white people like didn't have rights you want to go back to those times that makes no
00:40:41.340
sense yeah that's like i i personally don't want to go further than like 1981 i don't i think that's
00:40:48.840
where i kind of would be semi-comfortable you know i'm good yeah yeah when people are like oh man
00:40:55.180
do you remember there was that trend that was going around with like a woman would be like uh
00:41:00.840
my husband if i was if i was trez like if i were a color if i were oh yes yes yes yeah and it had
00:41:08.360
all the pictures yeah yeah yeah the fast song yeah the fast song and then people would do it trying to
00:41:12.840
like yeah for whatever reason was like if i was an era every like i hate i'm not trying to like put
00:41:19.200
people in a group but every white couple would be like i'd be the sixth my husband said i'd be the
00:41:23.220
50s or whatever yeah i'd be like the 50s the 40s and like i would do it i'd be like segregation
00:41:29.640
like what era is a segregation civil rights yeah it's like why why do all your boyfriends your
00:41:38.100
boyfriend think that about you think that you would be in the 1960s and your favorite
00:41:42.060
dizzy princess is bell like why is that exactly that would take that would feel like me personally
00:41:49.480
that would feel like an attack yeah exactly like that would make me feel like he describes your
00:41:53.820
like if you were a color you would be beige yeah yeah i'm like what do you hate me or something
00:41:58.220
literally like what do we have a problem literally oh my god that's just absolutely ridiculous okay
00:42:04.080
let's move on to this next video this video is a list of ways to talk like a real man it tells men
00:42:13.020
instead of saying when can i see you again say i noticed you had a good time with me let's plan
00:42:19.920
another date i love making people happy huh and instead of asking are you free on saturday say
00:42:25.640
make your saturday free we got something to do i'm telling you to go to hell if you say either of
00:42:32.000
those things to me that's like i'm alerting the authorities i noticed you were happy when you saw me
00:42:38.400
i noticed she smiled a couple times yeah clearly that means you had a good time with me do you want
00:42:42.980
to sleep with me so let's make another date yeah what a what a crazy doesn't that sound like
00:42:50.600
that sounds like like if a if an alien came down and they were like in a in a human suit and they
00:42:57.640
were like trying to blend in yeah like the men in black yeah they're like i noticed you had a good
00:43:02.180
time with me let us plan another date like wouldn't you be like what the hell's wrong with you
00:43:06.740
why'd you ask me like that i noticed you were drinking water do you enjoy being hydrated
00:43:12.020
like the most well also it doesn't factor in like that sometimes people like laugh or smile when
00:43:20.700
they're nervous when they're uncomfortable when they're just trying to be polite like there's like
00:43:25.820
a whole host of reasons someone could be laughing or smiling yeah it's like it's like they're saying
00:43:30.440
in order to be an alpha man you have to not know social cues be unable to read a room yeah be right
00:43:39.140
up in her personal bubble right up in her face and say i noticed and tell her what she's feeling
00:43:44.220
yeah and she'll love it i think you like me no i know you like me follow me they always like conflate
00:43:51.260
that with like um being um proactive like when you're dating and you're like hey like i had a really
00:43:58.820
great time like are you busy on friday like being proactive about setting dates is not the same thing
00:44:06.060
as telling someone like you like me right what do you mean you don't want to see me again yeah two
00:44:11.300
different vibes two completely different vibes yeah one is one is insane one one is giving me crazy
00:44:17.480
like one is giving me uncomfy yeah i've i've never had an issue fellas i'm sure there's no terrible men
00:44:24.780
watching this right now but i've never had an issue with just asking a woman if like she's
00:44:29.740
comfortable with something if she wants to go out like if she wants to hang if you want to hang hey
00:44:34.260
did you have a good time come over yeah i've had a good time would you like to go out never failed
00:44:40.520
never it's never you know you're genuinely asking you're not like telling them you had a good time
00:44:48.020
right okay so are you busy on friday those are like two different vibes like one is so like a like
00:44:55.580
almost accosting yeah and the other is like a genuine question like hey i really i had a really
00:45:01.600
that's why my speaking of therapy my therapist has told me to like always focus on talking in terms of
00:45:07.880
i like i'm feeling so you're not telling someone else how they feel because that comes off extremely
00:45:13.040
confrontational and sometimes invalidating so you're just like i had a really great time
00:45:17.600
if you did too i'd like to see you again exactly real simple so overcomplicating yeah overcomplicating
00:45:24.100
it's so simple all the time okay this first comment says heck yeah oh bad story be be a leader lead
00:45:32.720
with power and confidence and then it has two strong arms and a heart well he's lead with power and
00:45:41.740
confidence give her no choices just tell her man's never seen a vagina before yeah literally
00:45:47.580
yeah listen i didn't want to be the one to say you said it okay this one says y'all are making
00:45:54.100
fun of him but this shit actually works but it all depends on how you say it don't be too aggressive
00:45:59.360
actually say in a flirty tone can we give that can we give that a shot can we give let me try saying
00:46:05.040
okay ready go ahead i noticed that uh you were happy i like making people happy make your saturday
00:46:15.980
free dude if someone said that to me i'd be like what yeah like i would say it's so aggressively it
00:46:22.500
would snap them out of it i'd be like what are you talking about yeah why are you talking about
00:46:25.980
imagine you're talking totally normal the whole night like you're super cash the whole night and then
00:46:31.380
you're like i noticed you had a good time with me make your saturday free yeah run i forgot about
00:46:39.040
the part where he says i like making people happy yeah i like making people happy horror yeah well
00:46:45.280
that made me unhappy so yeah that made me uncomfortable that made me not happy so no thank
00:46:49.780
you no thank you this one's and also the fact that he was like no guys this works this actually
00:46:55.640
works trust me trust me bro you don't know me i have no content i have no picture i have no proof but
00:47:01.180
it trust me this worked last night trust me it works i once um tweeted i forget what i was i think it
00:47:08.800
was on twitter i forgot it was but some some guy was harassing me and he was saying all this terrible
00:47:14.040
shit to me and then uh he had made a comment about me being single and i was like who's gonna tell
00:47:20.880
him you know what i mean and then he was like i was like well i know you're single that's for sure
00:47:25.500
yeah like one of us is and it's not me and he was like that's not true i'm laying next to my girlfriend
00:47:31.320

00:47:38.420

00:47:44.600

00:49:04.320
someone literally once sent me a picture like a blurry ass picture of the back of someone's head
00:49:10.620
laying in the corner of a bed like i there's no way to tell if that's him there's no way to tell if
00:49:15.980
it's even a woman like it there's no way to tell anything and i literally was like you think this
00:49:20.160
blurry ass photo proves anything to me no i think guys it's like they grow like as men you grow up
00:49:27.260
with this idea of like your value of a man is like how many women you can get and like even that just
00:49:32.720
shows like how to speak to women as an alpha man it's like you grow up with like my only value is how
00:49:37.280
many women i can attain yeah and if i'm with a woman and she's got to be the hottest and what's your
00:49:42.200
body count and i've always found that so toxic and weird yeah i think that's something where i'm like
00:49:46.200
i don't even know how you begin to like unlearn that it takes years and also of introspection
00:49:53.340
and therapy i think especially when you're in the trenches of it like when you're like
00:49:58.100
so wrapped up and it's not impossible it just takes a lot of work to unlearn it and i've literally had
00:50:04.300
a guy uh once stitch me and he told he like made a video about me but he was like basically admitting
00:50:11.000
like if he had found me he's like if i had found her like five years ago i would have hated her
00:50:15.380
he's like i would have hated her just as much as you hate her i would have been just as mean
00:50:19.320
about her like i would have said all this terrible shit that i didn't actually mean
00:50:22.400
because she would make me feel some type of way that makes me uncomfortable and i don't like that
00:50:27.360
feeling so my initial my reflex reaction is is violence and anger yeah and he was like but then
00:50:33.500
i started realizing a while ago like why am i so unhappy like why do i hate my life why do i hate
00:50:39.720
myself like and he's like and admitting that is the first step yeah into putting a stop to it is
00:50:44.760
like admitting why you're unhappy in the first place and it's because you're unhappy with who
00:50:48.020
you are and where you're at in life and just for whatever reason and just like being willing to
00:50:52.300
just learn yeah like being open and being open yeah and to like listening yeah like being with my
00:50:58.080
girlfriends is like just listening to like the struggles of being a woman it's like just hearing
00:51:02.600
hearing them out and taking a moment to just like listen yeah and it's also i made a video about
00:51:08.160
this later but it's like checking your peers like that's a big part of it is like when you hear
00:51:14.300
other like straight men saying horrible shit about women or like they're talking about them in such a
00:51:21.460
vulgar way they're being bigoted towards them or anyone in general that's just not doesn't adhere to
00:51:26.480
a certain standard for them like you don't say anything to them you let them run amok like that so
00:51:32.940
that's why i made a video once where i was like you guys stand and you watch you watch violence
00:51:38.980
happen and you do nothing about it but then the minute someone like me comes up and i start standing
00:51:45.040
up for other people because you won't do anything about it all of a sudden you guys got a problem
00:51:48.600
with me and how i do it and i was like at the end of the you could sit all day and rip apart how i do
00:51:54.200
it and how much you don't like it whatever that may be for you but at the end of the day you're
00:51:59.400
standing there and you're not doing anything and that makes you a coward and that's why i was like
00:52:02.960
you're a coward yeah literally it's like the same it's like i think that goes for like a lot of
00:52:07.260
you know injustices against women and men with like even the rovers weight and abortion it's like
00:52:13.160
i saw and like i'm calling out all my my man mutuals i saw a lot of people that just didn't post
00:52:21.720
anything at all it's like all this is going on and they're still going like and it's like like
00:52:28.280
you know what i mean like yeah like how tone deaf can you be that like you're like you're like oh i
00:52:34.080
can't say anything about this because i don't want to lose followers yeah and that's that's another
00:52:39.200
that's tea actually because i know for a fact there are some men that do like my messaging but will
00:52:46.620
never publicly support me because they don't want to lose because they know who follows them yeah and
00:52:51.480
i said you're a coward that makes you a coward like you and and not to say like everyone needs
00:52:56.100
to love me but like you i know you see me and i know you and you clearly and explicitly don't follow
00:53:04.360
me or engage with me at all because you don't want your followership to know that you support me or my
00:53:09.880
messaging or whatever it may be yeah so i'm like that's more telling on you than it is on me yeah and
00:53:14.800
there's a power in like uh admitting that there are faults within like like how harmful the
00:53:20.700
patriarchy is it harms men too 100 it's not just women and there's other people that don't adhere
00:53:27.060
to either binary that also are heavily affected by patriarchy that's the true tea of it all like
00:53:32.940
it's like if you help us fight this it will release you too so you don't feel like that anymore like what
00:53:39.440
that guy was talking about how he would have hated me because he hated himself he hated himself because
00:53:43.840
of the standards that have been impressed on him from the patriarchy and he's not he's not living up to
00:53:49.740
these impossible standards so he hates himself and that's not fair to him either you know what i
00:53:54.240
mean and i think that's like when you like the core of like what you do the reason why all these men
00:54:00.440
are are truly upset is because they're looking at your content and you're dismantling every single
00:54:05.440
idea that they have of what they're supposed to be yeah you dismantle it and they look at the
00:54:09.480
comments and they see thousands of comments a woman agreeing with you so it just dismantles this
00:54:14.360
entire thing that they built everything in their head and they just don't know how to react because
00:54:19.780
they've never been taught to like how to control their emotions like no i have to hate her because
00:54:24.060
i learned all this stuff but she's dismantling all these women are agreeing with it but women should
00:54:28.220
like what i'm saying but because this guy told me and it's like they just they short circuit they
00:54:33.980
short circuit and they malfunction literally that's why i think you're the opposite end of me
00:54:38.640
like we're both on the same side we're just working it from different angles and you're the
00:54:43.520
same way because you have no problem getting any sort of attention regardless of who it is you have
00:54:50.120
no problem dating you have no problem working you have no problem thriving getting followers nothing
00:54:53.960
like that you have no problem with that even though you're everything that they've been conditioned
00:54:57.920
to believe is not manly whatever the fuck that means to them so that they get angry they're like
00:55:03.460
what i just i don't get it and he lifts i don't understand how does this guy he's like this i have
00:55:11.880
to go stand on my joe rogan altar and pray about it i don't know what to do i need joe rogan now
00:55:18.100
someone get him on the line i have to ask him the way that they just like lose their mind and that's
00:55:23.400
why i'm like it's so funny because i did um pro bowl stuff last week i went to vegas and i worked
00:55:29.800
pro bowl uh with meta and i was like i was so like it was so funny because i tweeted about
00:55:36.380
well actually i made a tiktok being there and then uh someone was like oh so the nfl supports
00:55:42.900
misandry first of all i've already said this publicly but misandry is not real if it is it's
00:55:48.280
a response to misogyny so that's on you uh but when they were like oh so they support it and i literally
00:55:55.420
just wrote back i'm gonna take everything you love and i'm gonna make it mine i'm gonna put
00:56:01.160
myself in every single thing you love i love it including your girl that's you know what's
00:56:07.940
hilarious is like i had that moment too finally we're like um i can't i just i don't have the
00:56:13.640
wordplay that you do to like react like that's why i think that's a part of like why i admire you so
00:56:18.180
much and like what you you're able to like attack these men's and make it hilarious make it funny
00:56:23.880
and still get your point across but like oh my gosh some of your humor like i love how old are
00:56:28.520
you again 27 27 okay i'm 29 so like okay because you have a lot of like you have like a lot of like
00:56:33.060
millennial yeah like you'll be like oh i know sometimes people think i'm like 19 yeah i'm like
00:56:37.560
no babe i'm old yeah like one time you're like he looks like like what'd you say you said like he
00:56:42.320
looks like tommy pickle tommy pickle grew up to like to be a bigot to be a bigot or whatever and i was
00:56:46.820
like oh my that is the funniest thing i've ever heard in my entire life that was one of my most
00:56:50.820
popular videos that guy hates me he revisits me like every few months absolute gold um but yeah
00:56:59.800
there was this one time i had this one moment where this mom sent me this video um well she
00:57:04.880
didn't she made it and she was like everyone was tagging me and she was talking about how like
00:57:08.220
her her son was getting bullied to the point he painted nails he was getting bullied to the point
00:57:12.780
like he didn't want to be here anymore this little child right and then i made this video and a bunch of
00:57:18.060
guys were like making these comments and i just started getting infuriated where i was just like
00:57:21.480
i was like it's people like you that that like i can take it yeah but there's certain people that
00:57:27.040
can't take it these kids can't take it i just started getting so fed up i got to a certain point
00:57:30.500
i made a video kind of like that where i'm like like hey you don't like my nails you don't like the
00:57:35.320
way i dress you don't like this you like this let me tell you something like i'm gonna make a point
00:57:39.360
that every your dream girl yeah you don't say i'm gonna make them follow me i'm gonna make them
00:57:44.720
love me i'm gonna do it every like the same thing everything you love yeah i'm gonna i'm gonna take
00:57:50.000
over i'm gonna be i just i had enough of like this toxic masculinity it's true and you know those same
00:57:54.500
men who are bullying that child right and saying all that shit on tiktok are the same men who tell me
00:58:00.800
you don't care about male suicide rates actually babe you don't yeah you don't two of us you don't care
00:58:06.900
at all about how this is toxic masculinity that's patriarchy affecting you to the point where you
00:58:12.720
don't want to be here anymore like that's so awful and such an evil evil like thing to put in the
00:58:19.540
universe because it has it has nothing to do with you well also it's online like if you don't like it
00:58:24.960
scroll past it like it's just like you have the free will right to go so why don't you exercise it
00:58:32.040
yeah and then those same guys grow up and they teach their children that this is wrong and
00:58:36.440
the cycle just continues yeah absolutely i i think that too about my younger brother because
00:58:40.980
my brother's 18 so like my brother is still in school but like my brother sometimes he'll tell
00:58:47.460
me things that he hears that kids say at his school they're not his friends or anything like that
00:58:51.240
but i've told my family i'm like that is literally what i'm talking about when i say it starts so young
00:58:58.100
like the the way that they view women the way they they talk about them the violence that they
00:59:03.760
like subject them to it starts so much younger and i've said before it would turn your stomach
00:59:11.340
to see some of the shit i see from kids that are like 16 15 years old like the way they talk about
00:59:18.520
women or anyone that doesn't adhere to a very very white eurocentric standard it's insane and i'm like
00:59:27.120
that's exactly why i will never stop because you guys will never stop it's just like it's a never
00:59:33.520
ending until you guys make the conscious choice to start checking each other like all of those
00:59:38.160
terrible men then i'm gonna i'm always gonna have a job likewise i'm never gonna stop until and i had
00:59:44.560
an amazing conversation with jesse jesse sullivan the other day like kind of on that same we love
00:59:48.620
jesse on the comment section we love jesse and arlo and francesca we love them yes um but we had this
00:59:53.060
amazing conversation about that exactly of like um of what it is like i think what it is to be
01:00:00.680
quote-unquote a real man just being a good person is the ideology of getting to a point where the world
01:00:07.340
where like gender sexuality all these things aren't so taboo yeah literally it's about making the people
01:00:15.440
around you your community feel safe yeah and protected to be and express themselves however they
01:00:21.500
want to i was like i would love to get to i would love to get to a point i know i failed as a father
01:00:27.480
or whoever if my kid feels the need to like come out to me yeah you know what i mean like i want to i
01:00:33.120
want a household where like jesse's so amazing he is such an amazing parent and i'm like i think that
01:00:39.040
should be like the standard of like yeah if my kid feels need to come out to me it's like i did
01:00:42.820
something wrong here that's a word bitch you know what i mean i feel like i would i would have more
01:00:47.820
problem if my kid you know didn't like you know what it's like i don't know like anime or something
01:00:54.580
yeah if he didn't like anime like if he wasn't into like naruto i'd be like okay this is an issue
01:00:58.160
that we have to talk about you're like what like oh what they could be like but dad i'm i'm queer
01:01:03.680
like i don't care you're all that i don't care about this we have to talk about you don't want to
01:01:09.200
watch the oc what family meeting family meeting you support dan being gossip girl
01:01:17.700
you're like oh oh my god but no seriously like i honestly feel like like you want like as a human
01:01:29.180
being like getting to that point where the next generation can feel comfortable to just
01:01:33.220
unapologetically be themselves be themselves and express themselves i think that's
01:01:38.420
the goal and that's why our roles are so important yeah what we do with our platforms is so important
01:01:44.460
yeah absolutely it's all about how you wield it you know what i mean the power of it it's like it
01:01:48.880
doesn't neither of us i feel like take it lightly yeah and it's and like you said i've had that
01:01:53.680
realization too it's like so much bigger than just like sillies it's so much bigger than just like
01:01:59.640
videos on an app like it's so much bigger than that which is like the greatest honor of having
01:02:06.040
a platform is like realizing that and then understanding that you could do so much good
01:02:09.940
with it so much good so i'm so happy to have had you on the show to be able to talk about it you're
01:02:14.940
amazing before we go how what is it that you want people to know um when it comes to like what it
01:02:21.600
means to like truly be like a man okay i think this is going to sound cliche but it's like the
01:02:31.740
golden rule that you learn in school treat others how you want to be treated and that should always
01:02:38.140
be with love with care um with kindness and you know lead with love yeah i think i think that's just
01:02:47.080
the key to being a good person and and building a better world as cliche and corny as it may seem
01:02:52.300
but it's okay to be yourself yeah you know lead with love if you're a kid you're watching this or
01:02:57.780
you watch your kids this it's fine to express yourself be who you are me and drew will always
01:03:02.900
