00:11:51.840For the people struggling to find someone, it feels like the problem is the opposite of that.
00:11:55.960They certainly don't feel like they have a surplus of options.
00:11:59.620But the truth is that you can go on a dating app and potentially connect with thousands of different people.
00:12:05.320Everyone is swimming in this pool where the options, in theory anyway, are basically infinite.
00:12:11.700And this lowers the value of any one particular individual and creates a sort of paralysis by analysis.
00:12:19.220Potential suitors are weeded out quickly without much thought and for often frivolous reasons.
00:12:24.540On the dating app, you're just one face and name and profile in an endless stream of very similar profiles.
00:12:32.860And third, at a much deeper level, people are very confused.
00:12:35.640And we've lost the basic understanding of what dating is for in the first place.
00:12:41.660Worse, we've lost any understanding of what men and women are for and what our roles are supposed to be.
00:12:46.920If we even talk about roles as it relates to men and women, it's considered outrageous and offensive somehow.
00:12:55.180A man and a woman then pair up and they go on a date.
00:12:59.500But they don't have any idea of what the goal of dating is supposed to be or why they're doing it or how they're supposed to interact with each other or what the other is looking for.
00:13:07.940I mean, think again about that woman in the first video highlighting her professional achievements.
00:13:11.500If she understood what men wanted, she would instead highlight herself as a kind and caring and affectionate woman who knows how to cook and take care of her man.
00:13:21.000Now, if that's what she was presenting, along with being an attractive woman, if she was presenting that, there would be men lining up for miles to present themselves as suitors to a woman who looks like how she looks and has that kind of attitude.
00:13:33.560But many single people can't be expected to understand what the other is looking for because they barely understand what they themselves are looking for.
00:13:41.660And this is all a very new problem for most of human history and in most cultures.
00:13:45.560A young man and a young woman went through some sort of courtship process while knowing exactly what the goal of the courtship was and exactly what the rules and parameters were and exactly what role the man is supposed to play and what role the woman is supposed to play.
00:13:59.100There was very little confusion about any of these basic concepts, and now there is nothing but confusion about all of it all the time.
00:14:08.840Fourth, this may be the biggest factor, but the institutions that once facilitated matchmaking have completely broken down, have been mostly abandoned, or have simply stopped performing those functions.
00:14:21.340How were people matched up in the past?
00:14:22.820Well, for most of history, families would arrange the matches.
00:14:25.840That's no longer the case, at least not in the West.
00:14:28.280And so if the family's not doing it, well, churches used to play a major role in connecting young people with each other.
00:14:35.140But most young people don't even go to church regularly, so that no longer happens.
00:14:39.160And if you don't have the family or the church, you've cut out the two institutions that used to be primarily in charge of this kind of thing.
00:17:07.580And now you can move on to the next phase of your relationship, which is the phase that we used to call courtship.
00:17:11.960And we don't really have a name for it anymore, which is a big part of the problem here.
00:17:15.180We don't even know what to call any of these phases or what they are or anything, but that's the next phase.
00:17:22.280And now you can start looking for more specific qualities, and the desirable qualities will be different at this point for men and women.
00:17:30.160If you're a woman, you want to know if the man is a good provider and a good protector.
00:17:35.060And if you're a man, you want to know if the woman is caring and kind and has maternal qualities.
00:17:38.940Even if you're a woman and you think you want to work outside the home when you're married, you still want a man with the qualities of a provider and protector.
00:17:48.540That is the kind of man that you want, no matter how much money you have.
00:17:54.060And if you're a man and you don't think you want kids right away, you still want a woman with maternal qualities.
00:18:00.680That's still the kind of woman you want.
00:18:02.420As a man, if you look at a woman and say, well, I'm attracted to her and I like her, but she would make a terrible mother.
00:18:11.120Then that speaks to deep defects in the woman that should disqualify her from consideration.
00:18:16.860And if you're a woman and you look at a man and say, he's nice, he's attractive, but if we ever had to depend on this guy financially, we'd be screwed.
00:18:24.060But again, there are profound defects that should cross him off the list.
00:18:27.480If you don't notice those kinds of defects and you find that you're both attracted to each other and share the same basic fundamental values, then that's all you need to know.
00:18:37.620You have all the raw material to build a life together.
00:18:40.920The only logical next step is marriage and the rest of the details you figure out as you go.
00:18:47.780Now, I don't mean to imply that finding someone who meets these basic qualifications is easy.
00:18:52.380It isn't easy, especially these days, or often it's not easy, but it is simple, or at least much simpler than our culture makes it seem.
00:19:03.640And if you know what you're looking for and what matters, then at least if you're still single, it won't be because of your own indecision and confusion.
00:19:14.160Which will automatically put you far ahead of the competition.
00:19:22.380Well, as an avid angler, I've found that using relief bands significantly enhances my experience on the water.
00:19:33.920My fishing trips often involve spending extended periods on a boat, which can lead to feelings of queasiness, especially when the waters are choppy.
00:19:40.800Relief band has helped keep the nausea at bay, allowing me to focus entirely on the thrill of fishing.
00:19:45.100Because I do wear a relief band when I go fishing.
00:27:36.920It is without a doubt much better for these women to remain sexless than to have a bunch of sex and kill a bunch of babies also.
00:27:44.820But it is funny to me that women like this, and again, she's not the only one, far from the only one who's claimed to go celibate in response to the Roe decision.
00:27:54.520It's funny that they seem to think they've discovered something that we have been saying all along.
00:28:01.360And pro-lifers have been saying this all along.
00:28:07.020That sex is an inherently procreative act.
00:28:11.420That doesn't mean that a baby is always conceived in the process.
00:28:14.260But it does mean that sexual intercourse always carries the potential for producing new life.
00:28:21.360That is its primary biological function, after all.
00:28:25.180From a biological, purely scientific perspective, that is why the sexual act exists.
00:28:30.720So if you don't want to create a child with a man who you're not prepared to start a family with, or if you're not at a point in your life where you feel that you're ready to have kids or whatever, there is another option instead of abortion.
00:28:45.220In fact, you don't need abortion to avoid these possibilities at all.
00:28:51.320You can instead exercise just the slightest modicum of self-control.
00:30:47.640Because the people who make sex into a scary thing are the ones who claim, you know, the people making it scary are the ones who claim that you need to be able to murder your offspring in order to have sex in the first place.
00:31:03.980They are the ones introducing death and murder and bloodshed into the equation.
00:32:14.820Federal court rules that Maryland parents can't opt kids out of classes with LGBT content.
00:32:21.780Does the court say that you, you can't opt out of it?
00:32:25.620The fourth U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals has ruled two to one against Maryland parents who sued their local school board for not letting their children in grades K through five opt out of reading books supporting transgender ideology and gender transitioning.
00:32:38.340The Montgomery County Public School Board denied the parents the request to be notified when their books would be read to their children and the opportunity to opt out.
00:32:45.560Now, the board is violating the parents' inalienable and constitutionally protected right to control the religious upbringing of their children, especially on sensitive issues concerning family life and human sexuality, according to the Beckett Fund for Religious Liberty that litigated the lawsuit.
00:33:00.880In fall 2022, the Montgomery County Board of Education announced over 20 new inclusivity books for its pre-K through eighth grade classrooms.
00:33:08.240But rather than focusing on basic civility and kindness, these books champion pride, praise, gender transitioning, and pronoun preferences for children.
00:33:15.400For example, one book tasks three and four-year-olds to search for images from a word list that includes intersex flag, drag queen, underwear, leather, and the name of a celebrated LGBTQ activist and sex worker.
00:33:28.440Then other books talk about non-binary and gender transitioning and all the rest of it.
00:33:34.760A district court ruled against the parents, prompting them to appeal to the Fourth U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals, which denied the parents' request for a preliminary injunction, but allowed the possibility of changing its position once the classes have already been taught.
00:33:46.380We take no view on whether the parents will be able to present evidence sufficient to support any of their various theories once they have the opportunity to develop a record as to the circumstances surrounding the board's decision and how the challenged texts are actually being used in schools.
00:33:58.040At this early stage, however, given the parents' broad claims, the very high burden required to obtain a preliminary injunction and the scant record before us, we are constrained to affirm the district court's order denying a preliminary injunction.
00:34:10.840Okay, so let me see if I understand this decision clearly.
00:34:13.940They're saying that the parents can't opt out of the left-wing LGBT indoctrination sessions, but maybe they will be able to opt out once they can prove their legal case after the sessions have already happened.
00:34:34.140So what they're saying is, what they appear to be saying is that they must allow their kids to be indoctrinated.
00:34:40.480And then after they've been indoctrinated, then they have proof that the indoctrination happened, and so then they can opt out of it, which, of course, at that point, it's too late.
00:34:51.400So this is an insane decision, obviously, completely bonkers.
00:34:54.740It's clearly a violation of a child's basic human rights to expose him to this kind of content in the context of a public school class, and it's a violation of the parents' basic human rights.
00:35:03.660And we know that's true, because all we have to do is imagine what the court would say, what it would do, and what the media would say and do, and what the left would say.
00:35:12.880If the school was using in its curriculum, instead of these LGBT books, what if they were using books that teach the kids that Jesus Christ is their Lord and Savior?
00:35:20.600Even if there was just one book, the purpose of which was to instruct the children that Jesus loved them and died for their sins, the court would put a stop to that without hesitation.
00:35:32.500They'd make the decision in 30 seconds.
00:35:55.620It's actually not at all the same thing, because Jesus Christ really is our Lord and Savior, and Christianity is true, whereas gender ideology is not true.
00:36:02.880So children are harmed by exposure to gender ideology, but they are certainly not harmed by exposure to Christianity.
00:36:10.900So it's not the same on the merits, but it's the same sort of thing only in the sense that Christianity is a religion and gender ideology is also a religion.
00:36:24.800And sometimes I hesitate to make this kind of argument because it sounds like we're using religion as a pejorative.
00:36:29.800When that's not how I mean it, it's just a matter of classifying it.
00:36:38.480It's putting it in the right, like, what is this thing that we're talking about?
00:36:43.060This gender ideology that teaches all these things, what is this?
00:36:46.280What is this, like, system of beliefs?
00:37:34.060And while I did feel sympathy for the women in the videos that we opened with, there's one more that went viral this week that I kind of wanted to put in a separate category and talk about separately.
00:37:43.600And this is one that does not cause me to feel very much sympathy or any sympathy at all, in the slightest, actually.
00:37:52.340This is a woman who says in the caption that she's a single mom and she has to bake her own birthday cake for herself because it's her birthday and no one is there to celebrate.
00:38:02.960And so she has to bake it herself and she decided to film herself making her cake while crying.
00:38:40.680Okay, there's just something funny about the sight of somebody crying while making cupcakes.
00:38:54.120It's just there's something very, it's not very, it's not very congruous.
00:38:58.600There's something odd about the sight.
00:39:00.520Okay, first of all, and look, if you're gonna, if you're just gonna make cupcakes from a pre-packaged mix, then you might as well go out and buy already made cupcakes at the store.
00:39:13.680Like if making cupcakes is a sorrowful activity for you, then just go buy them.
00:39:19.720If you're, if you're so traumatized by throwing some mix into a bowl and an egg or whatever and stirring it, then go buy some cake for yourself or just don't have cake at all.
00:39:30.040You know, I went through several birthdays when I lived alone and I didn't make myself a cake.
00:44:09.800But if there was anything, like, if there was any, like, redeeming quality to this kind of content, the sad woman genre of video, if there was any redeeming quality to it, that is negated by the fact that it's not real.
00:44:41.520It's like turning into artificial intelligence.
00:44:44.000Because now, for this woman, anytime she actually does feel authentically sad or upset, she's going to think to herself, oh, this is great content.
00:45:11.060And, you know, that's a real sort of danger for everybody on social media now that you no longer live any kind, like, you don't have a real existence anymore.
00:46:03.520I mean, so then in the end, like, it actually is really sad.
00:46:06.720It actually – you start by kind of laughing at how silly it is, but then you end up actually really sad yourself, but just not sad for the same reasons or for the reasons that are intended.
00:46:18.720Amid the chaos of my daily life, I find solace in my Helix mattress.
00:47:17.640Get ready for something special tonight.
00:47:19.420Join me along with Ben Shapiro, Michael Knowles, Andrew Klavan, and Jeremy Boring backstage at 7 p.m. Eastern, 6 p.m. Central, streaming live and free on Daily Wire+.
00:47:27.120We're taking you behind the scenes and beyond the headlines at the Daily Wire, and we're being told that Jeremy Boring has a special announcement that you'll hear first during backstage.
00:47:35.560We've been busy, and it's been way too long since we've all been together.
00:47:38.460There's a ton to discuss, and this is your chance to hear all about it.
00:47:44.820Tonight at 7 p.m. Eastern, 6 p.m. Central.
00:47:47.360Now let's get to our daily cancellation.
00:47:48.420Well, if you've listened to this show for a while, you probably know that I am not exactly the greatest fan of yoga.
00:48:01.320My relationship with yoga over the years has been quite contentious.
00:48:04.240And yet, today, in a plot twist that nobody saw coming, I'm going to be assuming the role of yoga defender because there is someone out there, a group of people, who are even more anti-yoga than me.
00:48:17.000Apparently, someone high up in San Diego's government has a burning disdain for yoga that exceeds even my own.
00:48:22.840And that's my assumption today, after San Diego decided, effective immediately, to outlaw yoga classes on the beach.
00:48:30.700Practice yoga in defiance of this new mandate, and you can look forward to a ticket and a court date.
00:48:35.940Even free yoga classes are prohibited.
00:48:38.200No organized group is allowed to participate in any yoga on the beach anymore.
00:48:44.480And there are rows of police cruisers enforcing the ban on beach yoga every day.
00:48:51.340Which, of course, isn't going over very well with the locals.
00:49:57.280When I came here to teach my class at 6 o'clock, there were three park ranger trucks all positioned on the cliffs that prevented us from starting our class.
00:50:07.100The city of San Diego is enforcing an ordinance it revised in March, the one that aimed to crack down on sidewalk bending.
00:50:13.300In it, the city restricts where fitness classes can be held, like here at the cliffs, and requires a permit.
00:50:19.460I keep saying I thought it was hot dog vendors, and all of a sudden, all of a sudden, it's yoga teachers, too.
00:50:26.060My God, I'm agreeing with the wellness community.
00:50:32.640So these women were under the impression that only hot dog vendors were banned, but to their horror, they quickly discovered that it's not just hot dogs, but downward-facing dogs that are prohibited as well.
00:50:43.080In other words, the government has suddenly assumed a lot more power than anyone originally anticipated.
00:51:14.200The city of San Diego has actually done the impossible here, which is make me sympathize with people who practice yoga in public.
00:51:20.280And if not sympathize, at least, like, agree with their argument.
00:51:23.760I am fully on the side of the yoga practitioners, as much as it pains me to say so.
00:51:28.000You know, when the government starts banning people from doing something and enforcing that ban, sending three trucks to the place to enforce something,
00:51:37.120well, they should have a clear justification for doing so.
00:51:40.200But in this case, they don't have one.
00:51:42.840The city of San Diego isn't really implementing a new law here.
00:51:45.660Instead, they say that they're simply clarifying an existing ordinance.
00:51:48.180Quoting from the city, the city of San Diego's municipal code prohibits groups consisting of four or more people engaged in commercial or recreational activities like yoga,
00:51:55.960fitness classes, and dog training from gathering in parts without a permit and can only operate in certain designated areas.
00:52:17.380The applicable municipal code has been in effect since 1993, and recent updates to the policy have clarified the activities for which necessary permitting replies.
00:52:25.240These updates went into effect March 29th and are in effect to ensure that these public spaces remain safe and accessible to all users at all times.
00:52:31.940This is one of those scenarios where safe and accessible to all users at all times means that if you want to do some yoga, you'll get a court date.
00:52:39.920And this is the kind of contradiction that makes it completely impossible to defend what the government's doing here.
00:52:44.440Their own logic is arbitrary and self-defeating.
00:52:46.360And again, these aren't even commercial yoga classes.
00:53:21.380One of her donation-based classes was shut down last week at Sunset Cliff, so she wanted to stop by PB, where she knew another class was happening Saturday.
00:53:30.540And when I got here, the street was lined with Park Ranger trucks.
00:53:34.300There were three rangers standing in the grass overlooking a class full of people doing yoga.
00:53:39.360After the class, the Park Rangers moved in to give the teacher a ticket.
00:57:06.140Well, Phil, in the last week alone, there have been nearly 7,000 encounters at the San Diego sector of the border.
00:57:13.440I mean, this is the highest in the country, and data all backed by CBP.
00:57:18.300And now we've got video showcasing a maritime incident right here in Carlsbad.
00:57:22.860And like you said, this is just one out of several incidents we've seen up and down the San Diego coast within the last year.
00:57:32.080This viral video now surfacing nationwide shows a boat carrying over a dozen undocumented migrants racing ashore at a high speed just along the Carlsbad coast.
00:57:44.080Blatantly coming in at noon on a Saturday to a crowded beach.
00:57:48.400In the video, you could spot surfers looking to catch a wave, dodging its path just before the vessel reached the sand as more than 16 people soon hopped out one by one.
00:58:00.420You can see the group piling into this black GMC.
00:58:03.880Some even seen struggling aboard as the car begins to drive away just along this suburban neighborhood near Ocean Street.
00:58:10.780Senate Bill 54, our state legislators decided that our local police may not, they're prohibited from interfering with any kind of immigration.
00:59:52.100We dodged a number of encampments and people's belongings along the way.
00:59:55.720You have to negotiate around people sleeping, dogs, and drug paraphernalia in the middle of the path.
01:00:03.500Frequently, I often dismount my bike because I'm afraid I will run over somebody or something.
01:00:09.800So just to review, you can set up a camp in the middle of a bike path and sleep there and do drugs there and defecate there and nobody will stop you.
01:00:23.080But if you do yoga, then that's when the cops show up.
01:00:25.680They turn the bike path into skid row and the police won't ticket any of them.
01:00:30.600So the government targets people with a lot of disposable income instead.
01:00:33.660And women taking daytime yoga classes obviously fit the bill, which is really why they're going after the yoga.
01:00:39.800Now, I could go on and on about all the serious problems San Diego has right now.
01:00:42.820These are actual security risks, major quality of life issues that no one's doing anything about.
01:00:47.400Meanwhile, the government's going after the least threatening people on the entire planet, even if they are sort of weird and annoying.
01:00:53.640It's hard to think of a better illustration of the wildly discombobulated priorities of our leaders.
01:00:59.340This country is plagued by bureaucrats who are focusing on the exact opposite of what they should be focusing on.
01:01:05.460And that is why, as much as it pains me to defend yoga and its practitioners, the city of San Diego and its completely unjustified yoga ban are today canceled.
