00:00:00.000
All right, so today we're gonna do some TikTok reaction videos, and it looks like the videos
00:00:08.480
they have queued up for me today are feminist dating videos. And you know, the way this used
00:00:13.960
to work is that my producers would, we're doing some kind of TikTok reaction, they'd say, well,
00:00:18.120
do you want to react to these kinds of videos? And I would say yes or no. But at this point,
00:00:22.540
they don't even ask me anymore, because I think they know that I'll just say no.
00:00:25.600
Uh, because I'll, if they said, well, do you want to sit there for 10 minutes and react
00:00:29.360
to feminist dating videos? I would say, I'm not, no, I'm not gonna do that. I don't care
00:00:32.760
if it's good content. I'm not, I'm not gonna put myself through that. And so now there's
00:00:35.780
no conversation. It's just, uh, the videos are put up in front of me. And, and here we
00:00:40.360
are. So we're going to go through, uh, some of these videos of feminists talking about
00:00:44.940
their dating experiences and giving dating advice. Go ahead.
00:00:48.600
Why do you think men care about a woman's body count?
00:00:55.300
If a man is f***ing asking me a body count, he can get f***ed. Who gives a f***ed? Oh my
00:01:01.400
God, that's so stupid. People actually ask that s***?
00:01:04.660
You, okay, well then you're talking to the wrong man. If a man is ever asking about your body
00:01:09.560
count, you're talking to the wrong man and he can get f***ed. Like, that's so f***ing stupid.
00:01:17.420
So, what do you think about the analogy? If one key can open many locks, it's known
00:01:23.400
as a master key. As opposed to if you have a lock that can be opened by any key, it's
00:01:30.320
I think that if a woman is an analogy to you, then you're not f***ing ready to be talking
00:01:35.680
to a woman. And you should probably get f***ed. So, if a woman is the key to you, talk to your
00:01:41.620
mom. Talk to your sister. Talk to your cousin. I don't know. Get a real f***ing life. And
00:01:48.300
get f***ed. Thank you. And a woman is not a key. Thank you.
00:01:56.860
So, a few issues here. Red flags. If you're a single man looking for the woman of your dreams
00:02:05.500
and someone that you might want to spend the rest of your life with, this is not going to
00:02:10.340
be it. Before we even get to the content of what is being said, when you come across
00:02:15.200
a woman who cannot say two words without dropping an F-bomb.
00:02:18.800
He can get f***ed. Like, that's so f***ing stupid. Get f***ed.
00:02:23.120
Go the other direction. Like, as fast as you can. That's going to tell you everything you
00:02:26.880
need to know about her. And, yeah. Now, it's also bad if there's a man who can't say two
00:02:30.640
words without dropping an F-bomb. It's worse for a woman, though. It just is.
00:02:36.100
And that's also advice for women in general. If you are having trouble finding a man, you
00:02:42.240
might want to think also about how you're presenting yourself, how you're speaking, and
00:02:45.920
you see there the problem. But then we look at the content of what she's saying. If someone
00:02:50.500
even refers to it as their body count. Body count, of course, if you're an old fogey like
00:02:57.740
me, maybe you aren't familiar with this lingo here. But body count means the number of people
00:03:01.560
you've slept with. Now we call that body count. If you're talking to someone who even uses
00:03:12.320
that phrase to describe their past sexual encounters, it doesn't matter what the number
00:03:17.240
is. Again, go the other way. So it could be, if you're in a dating world, if you're a man
00:03:22.240
talking to a woman, it's a good thing maybe to ask her, to say, what's your body count?
00:03:26.840
Because if she says anything other than words to the effect of my body count, what are you
00:03:33.820
Like if she reacts that way to that question, it's a good sign. If she drops a number, oh,
00:03:38.880
here's my body count. Starts talking about her body count. Whatever the number is, it's
00:03:41.960
bad. I can think of nothing of a more dehuman. It's like it is literally dehumanizing.
00:03:47.300
Okay. Now you're just referring to, they're not people. They're not people who you had
00:03:51.440
a sexual encounter with. It's not that. They're just bodies, right? Body count, that usually
00:03:58.080
means dead. They're usually referring to people who've been killed. It's like you're imagining
00:04:02.080
this dead bodies in your wake. That's the kind of like image that comes to mind. So someone
00:04:08.680
who speaks that way is already another big red flag. But yes, no matter how we put it, if you're
00:04:16.900
talking to a woman who's had many random sexual encounters, then yeah, that's not someone who
00:04:23.160
you want. People can be reformed. They can change. They can go through like a conversion
00:04:28.800
experience. People can change. We have to allow for that.
00:04:31.040
Well, if it's going to help end all of this madness, I'll allow it.
00:04:33.940
But a woman like this, especially, who doesn't even want to consider the possibility that it
00:04:39.080
might be wrong to conduct yourself this way. Well, then that tells you everything you need
00:04:43.420
to know about her character, her self-respect or lack thereof. Just before you even get
00:04:48.660
two words into this, we've got, you know, 50 different red flags. All right, let's go
00:04:53.780
to the next one. Do you reach for your purse on the first date? Yes, always to show my fake
00:04:59.720
kindness. You know better. No, I don't pay for any first date. You asking me out. But
00:05:05.940
you don't even do the like. No, I'm not going to pretend. No, you know what it is. The date
00:05:10.180
is like $100. You'll be fine. Oh, you think that I go to a restaurant on a first date. You're
00:05:15.160
assuming that I date men that would take me to a restaurant. Yeah, but my hand never like
00:05:19.020
gets to the purse. Yeah, you don't touch. I don't touch it. I like play pretend. And
00:05:23.840
then I'm like, oh, then they pay. Yes, of course I do it. It's like a guilt thing. I
00:05:28.520
always reach to like show them. Well, okay. The other day I dug around in here. I felt
00:05:32.680
my wallet and I just kept digging and he was waiting for me to finish digging. And then
00:05:37.980
he finally just paid, but I wanted him to think I was nice. Yes. And then of course they
00:05:42.020
pull it out and I say, oh, are you sure? The are you sure is good. If they don't pay for
00:05:46.900
it on the first date, just the first date, I say no second date. I just think that's
00:05:50.240
weird. Third date, we can start talking about that. What? So you, okay. First of all, you
00:05:54.540
expect them to pay on the first date, but then by the third date you could talk about them
00:05:59.540
not paying. So you want them to be less invested as the date, as time goes on. Should it be the
00:06:05.220
other way around? If anything, that on the first date when they don't even know you, like
00:06:10.120
they're, they're not going to pay. And then, but then as you start to have a relationship
00:06:13.360
now they are paying, wouldn't it, wouldn't you expect that to be the way that that evolves?
00:06:18.280
Oh, he's the captain obvious guy. But in general, I'm an old fashioned person. I believe in chivalry.
00:06:25.020
I believe in all that. I believe in gender roles. I do. Gasp. Yeah. I can say, I think in,
00:06:30.640
you know, all things being equal, uh, it makes sense for the man to pay, but you as a woman
00:06:35.700
cannot expect that you cannot demand that you have no right to be disappointed. If you don't get
00:06:41.460
it, unless you also believe in chivalry and believe in gender roles, what you cannot do as
00:06:48.960
a woman. Now here's some real mansplaining as a woman pointing at you, you cannot recoil at the
00:06:56.640
very idea of gender roles, but then expect them to pay. Cause guess what? Cupcake, that's a gender
00:07:03.280
role. So you can't, you know what? I'm going to discard all the gender roles that have to do with
00:07:09.140
me, but then expect the man to still abide by every gender role that will benefit me.
00:07:14.600
That doesn't work. You don't get to do that. Y'all can't have it both ways, man.
00:07:18.400
So if you want to be an enlightened, progressive feminist woman who I don't believe in gender
00:07:22.420
roles, men and women are exactly the same, then pay for your own damn meal. That's it. You can't
00:07:26.220
expect a man to, you know, it, it, it takes two to tango. This goes two ways. Gender roles do not
00:07:31.120
just apply to one person. You don't get to, you don't get to, uh, get rid of all the gender roles,
00:07:34.800
except for the one where you get to have a free meal. Okay. No. So if you are a traditional
00:07:40.380
minded woman and you comport yourself that way, uh, and, and, um, you fulfill your end of the
00:07:47.260
bargain, you know, part of being chivalrous for a man is to be a man of dignity and a man of, uh,
00:07:51.500
who commands respect and acts in a respectable way. If you also are that way as a woman, which
00:07:57.560
means that you're not dropping F-bombs, you're not talking about your damn body count. Guess what?
00:08:01.360
If you have a body count that you refer to that way, you are precluded from having anyone pay for
00:08:05.520
a meal for you. You're not, you're not that kind of woman. Sorry. I'm sorry. I'm not sorry. But if
00:08:12.060
you comport yourself with dignity and you believe in tradition, you know, you believe that men are
00:08:17.100
men and women are women, and that's how you act and you expect, and you want to find a man who has
00:08:21.520
those same values. Great. That's perfect. That's the way it should be. But you gotta, you gotta do,
00:08:28.200
you gotta, you have to hold up your end of the bargain. You just do. In the not too distant past,
00:08:32.280
private citizens used to be largely that, if you can imagine, private. What's changed? Well,
00:08:36.240
the internet changed. Think about everything you've ever searched for, watched, or tweeted
00:08:39.140
on the internet. Now imagine all of that data being crawled through, collected, and aggregated
00:08:42.620
by third parties into permanent public records. To keep my data private, when I go online, I use
00:08:47.180
ExpressVPN. There are hundreds of data brokers out there whose sole business involves buying and selling
00:08:51.660
your data. They don't even have to tell you who they're selling it to or get your consent either.
00:08:55.580
One of these data points is your IP address. Data harvesters use your IP to uniquely identify you
00:09:00.740
and your physical location, but you can mask your IP address with ExpressVPN. ExpressVPN
00:09:04.960
reroutes my connection through an encrypted server that makes it more difficult for third parties to
00:09:09.280
find me. If it sounds complicated, it's not, because all you have to do is just tap one button on the
00:09:14.120
app, and then you're protected. So if, like me, you believe that your data is your business,
00:09:18.440
secure yourself with the number one rated VPN on the market. Use my link, expressvpn.com

00:09:29.840
Dating apps, the place where we all go because we're living in a capitalist hell where we have
00:09:34.400
neither the time nor the sense of community to actually meet people at IRL. Hi, it's Celine
00:09:40.480
Chica. Let's unpack the downfall of society one Tinder bio at a time.
00:09:44.720
Cut it. Stop it. Stop it. She said we're going to unpack. She said, let's unpack. So we're going
00:09:49.740
to move on from that. I have no tolerance for this. Let's unpack. The moment you say that,
00:09:53.620
I tune out. I don't care what you're about to say next. Maybe you're about to unveil secrets
00:09:56.980
of the universe. Maybe you have a cure for cancer. The moment you say, let's unpack. If you came to
00:10:01.800
me and said, I have a cure for cancer. Let's unpack it. I'm going to say, I don't want to hear it.
00:10:05.120
Get out of my face. Get out of my face. I'll get inside your face.
00:10:07.900
Here's why dating as a feminist feels impossible sometimes and what to do about it. I'm Lily,
00:10:13.060
a top matchmaker turned intersectional feminist dating coach. And this question right here is so
00:10:19.100
important. Hi, Maggie, new friend. We DMed about her question. Let me read it out to you. I took notes.
00:10:23.860
So you're feeling apathy, like dating. All right, stop it. This is already taking too long. I'm already
00:10:28.720
bored. Just go to the next one. Did you know that the happiest demographic of people is women over 30
00:10:34.440
without children who aren't married that live alone? Welcome back to part two of things I learned
00:10:39.700
from my feminist mother. You do not need to get married. My mother was born in 1952. For the first
00:10:48.000
22 years of her life, women were not allowed to have their own bank accounts or credit cards.
00:10:53.640
This changed in 1974, thanks to Ruth Bader Ginsburg. When I was a little girl, I was obsessed with Disney
00:11:01.080
and the idea that somewhere out there was a prince who was coming to rescue me. Each and every time I
00:11:07.660
would bring up this fantasy, my mother would quietly and gently remind me, sweetie, it's okay if you
00:11:13.520
never get married. She told me that marriage was not all it was cracked up to be. And that happily
00:11:18.780
ever after was more often an image that people painted rather than a reality. And now, thanks to that
00:11:24.960
lesson, I fall into the demographic of the happiest people on the planet.
00:11:29.120
Oh, what a shock. I am 35 years old. I live alone. I am not married, nor have I ever been
00:11:35.660
married. And I don't have any children. It's pretty fantastic. Oh, yeah, really? You're exuding
00:11:41.100
happiness. I also think it's funny when people reference ladies over 30. All right, pause it for a second.
00:11:45.100
See, the Prince Charming never came for you because your hairstyle, you look like a My Little Pony.
00:11:52.040
So maybe if you hadn't done that, then you would have had the Prince Charming. Can you imagine this?
00:11:59.020
I didn't want to make fun of her, really, because it's like she had no chance in life. You got a mom.
00:12:03.620
When you're a little girl and you're watching the princess, you know, movies as all little girls,
00:12:09.460
like my own three-year-old daughter is going through the phase right now that in my experience can last
00:12:13.820
for like three years where she only wears princess. I have not seen her wear anything but a princess
00:12:19.560
costume for the last four and a half weeks. She wears it to bed. She wears it. She will not wear
00:12:24.200
anything else. But can you imagine going up to a little girl watching the princess, you know,
00:12:28.720
into the princess thing and then saying, you know, that's not real. You won't be happily ever after.
00:12:37.020
In fact, little child, you'll be better off living alone and dying alone. That's what would be good
00:12:43.140
for you. So she claims that the happiest demographic are middle-aged, single women who live alone are
00:12:53.480
the happiest. I guess this is one of those, what's the source? Trust me, bro. That's the,
00:12:58.720
I guess this is one of those situations because there's no, it's hard enough to measure happiness.
00:13:04.680
And so anytime you hear a new study indicates this or that about happiness, happiness, who's happy,
00:13:10.080
who's not happy. It's just like, it's impossible to actually measure that scientifically, especially
00:13:15.840
across entire demographics. What's the level of happiness in this demographic? It's not possible
00:13:21.240
to actually do that in the first place. I mean, the only way you can even begin to measure happiness
00:13:26.080
is to, is to, is to interview, ask people, survey people and say, are you happy with this?
00:13:32.260
Survey says, it tells you what people will say about their happiness. And so if this is true,
00:13:38.060
I don't know what study she's made, let's just pretend she's basing it on some study that found
00:13:41.280
that a single middle-aged women without children who live alone are the happiness. Let's pretend
00:13:46.300
there's some study that says that. And probably there is because the study says anything. What
00:13:49.740
that tells you is that single middle-aged women without kids who live alone are the most likely
00:13:56.620
to tell you when you survey them that they are happy, but that doesn't mean that they actually
00:14:02.180
are. And in fact, in this case, we're pretty sure that it doesn't because they have a vested
00:14:05.360
interest in insisting that they are happy. They want you to think that they're happy
00:14:09.440
because they don't want to publicly confront their own unhappiness. And it also, it isn't,
00:14:15.600
this is where we can, we don't need a study. We can use our own common sense and our own
00:14:19.020
understanding of human nature to know that it is very, very rare to find, I'm not going to say
00:14:25.300
it's impossible. There's all, you know, people are, there are some, there are some people who have
00:14:28.320
a vocation where they're called to, you know, uh, to be hermits living in the woods somewhere
00:14:33.820
writing the next great American novel. I don't know, like those kinds of people exist, but for
00:14:37.720
most people, um, happiness is shared. It is something that we find, um, in our relationships
00:14:44.700
and especially our relationships with our families. That's how we're human beings. This is how we are
00:14:49.120
meant to be. Um, and so when you reject that, you are going to be lonely and you're not going to be
00:14:54.060
happy. So instead you'll dye your hair pink and blue and you'll make TikTok videos insisting
00:14:58.880
otherwise, which is, you know, that's the number one indication that someone isn't happy. If someone
00:15:02.580
is on TikTok saying I'm happy, that's the least happiest person that you'll come across. So.
