Transcript

00:00:00.000 I want you to tell women what to do.
00:00:03.120 If you're just going to sit and live with mom and dad all your life
00:00:06.040 until Prince Charming comes and saves you, that may not happen.
00:00:09.320 I promote women can have it all.
00:00:10.620 I personally don't think women should vote.
00:00:12.340 Every single thing you say is literally appealing to men.
00:00:16.740 I think you're evading the question.
00:00:18.300 Well, I think the advice you give to women is awful.
00:00:21.420 And I don't think it comes from true happy.
00:00:23.220 Of course it is.
00:00:24.360 You wouldn't be so triggered.
00:00:25.660 Forrated my husband for absolutely no reason.
00:00:27.640 I just looked at two seconds and I was like, oh, that's a gay man.
00:00:30.540 When I was a boy, I was told there would never be a war between the sexes
00:00:34.460 because everyone was sleeping with the enemy.
00:00:37.200 And somehow that actually isn't true anymore.
00:00:39.860 Somehow men and women are not sleeping together.
00:00:42.040 I guess that's good if they're not married, but they're also not getting married
00:00:44.460 and they're not having kids.
00:00:46.120 There seems to be a spike in men hating women, a spike in women hating men,
00:00:50.920 an abundance of dating apps, and yet a dearth of dating.
00:00:55.200 So to help me, an old man, make sense of this, I have invited on three hip, cool,
00:01:02.180 young Zoomer women.
00:01:03.840 That would be Melanie Mack, Emily Wilson, and Savannah Stone.
00:01:08.240 Ladies, thank you for being on the show.
00:01:10.740 Thank you so much for having us.
00:01:12.940 So my friend Tommy Lauren has gone viral for talking about this problem
00:01:18.500 and placing the blame at the feet of stay-at-home boys.
00:01:23.000 Leave it to Gen Z to rebrand laziness and social awkwardness as something cutesy,
00:01:29.580 like a stay-at-home son.
00:01:30.780 They did much the same thing with quiet quitting, where you can go to work and do less.
00:01:35.060 And if you call it quiet quitting, it's somehow better.
00:01:37.860 But Laura, I got to tell you, this is also a big problem when it comes to,
00:01:41.020 I think, declining birth rates, people not getting married and having children.
00:01:44.860 You know, that's a big problem.
00:01:45.800 They blame it on women.
00:01:47.160 Well, look at what young women have to choose from.
00:01:49.800 The pickings are slim.
00:01:51.480 Pickings are slim.
00:01:52.340 It's all the boys' fault.
00:01:53.220 It's not the girls' fault.
00:01:54.100 Emily, what say you?
00:01:55.840 No, I'm with her on this.
00:01:57.380 I'm not saying that there's not blame across the board.
00:02:00.080 I don't even think it's a men hating women, women hating men.
00:02:02.600 I think it's everyone hating each other problem right now,
00:02:05.540 because I see it women against women, men against men.
00:02:07.740 But she's right.
00:02:08.820 I mean, I live in Beverly Hills.
00:02:11.740 Most of the men around here come from money.
00:02:14.900 They're complete mommy's boys.
00:02:16.700 They stay at home until they're literally in their late 30s.
00:02:19.760 And there's guys who walk around and they're TikTokers.
00:02:23.540 I mean, she makes a lot of good points.
00:02:25.600 I agree with everything she's saying.
00:02:26.840 I don't ever put 100% blame on.
00:02:28.700 But yeah, she's right.
00:02:29.880 Men are also becoming a bit feminine.
00:02:32.500 Okay.
00:02:32.740 So if you had to place the blame, you know, you say it's not 100%.
00:02:36.320 Is it 90-10, 75-25?
00:02:38.840 I think it's 50-50.
00:02:40.580 50-50.
00:02:41.240 Okay.
00:02:41.440 So then you don't, then it's not primarily the boys.
00:02:43.860 It's the girls and the boys.
00:02:45.540 Savannah?
00:02:45.880 Yeah.
00:02:47.380 You know, I would say both, but I have a little bit of a different perspective,
00:02:50.440 because I live in the South.
00:02:52.340 So most men are very masculine.
00:02:54.980 They're manly.
00:02:55.440 They go hunting.
00:02:56.180 They provide for women.
00:02:57.560 And I would say where I live, it's actually mainly the women.
00:03:00.920 And I'm going to contribute that to modern feminism.
00:03:04.060 Just the fact that they don't want to be traditional.
00:03:06.380 They don't want to live this traditional life.
00:03:08.000 But the men are looking for that.
00:03:09.540 But they're struggling to find traditional women because modern feminism has told women
00:03:13.880 that their career is more important than having a family.
00:03:17.840 Okay.
00:03:18.140 So you're placing the blame more at the girls' feet.
00:03:21.440 Yes.
00:03:22.060 Okay.
00:03:22.460 All right.
00:03:22.860 Melanie?
00:03:23.800 I think it's 50-50.
00:03:25.020 I do think it's a society problem.
00:03:26.960 But I also have to say that if you live, so I live in Texas.
00:03:30.000 And here in Texas, there's not this stay-at-home mommy-boy epidemic going on,
00:03:35.860 for the most part, at least in the Bible Belt where I'm at.
00:03:38.200 Men are masculine.
00:03:39.360 They're working hard.
00:03:40.440 And the women are feminine out here, for the most part.
00:03:43.220 So I think if you really want to get away from all of that, all of these,
00:03:47.420 everybody want to be a TikToker, everybody want to be a Kardashian,
00:03:50.480 because this is on both sides, then move somewhere that has good biblical values.
00:03:57.280 Okay, so that's a great point.
00:04:00.700 But now we're at 50-50.
00:04:02.900 So it's not even 50.001 to 49.999.
00:04:08.180 You're saying it's exactly 50.
00:04:10.300 You don't, none of you want to place the blame at the girls' or the boys' feet.
00:04:14.760 Okay, fair enough, very diplomatic, very nice, very complimentary,
00:04:17.280 and very trad in many ways.
00:04:18.480 But then how do you fix it?
00:04:20.020 If you've got the boys acting like girly men,
00:04:22.620 and you've got the girls acting sort of vacuous and promiscuous,
00:04:26.940 then how do you, how are the two going to meet?
00:04:30.460 I think you only fix this with God.
00:04:32.440 You only fix this with biblical values.
00:04:34.140 I think the reason why society has gone so chaotic like this,
00:04:38.140 a huge reason why, is because people have,
00:04:40.880 and society has steered away from these values.
00:04:43.240 They normalized hookup culture, which is not good.
00:04:45.800 This is why a lot of the youth aren't dating anymore,
00:04:48.760 because that there's just, that's not healthy at all.
00:04:51.640 And then you've also got a very selfish culture.
00:04:54.620 Everybody wants to feel like they're the prize.
00:04:56.720 And the problem with feeling like you're the prize
00:04:58.900 when you're seeking a relationship is you're looking for a servant
00:05:01.840 instead of an equal partnership where you're both putting in 100%.
00:05:06.320 So what's the practical advice?
00:05:08.620 I mean, at least to the men, you know,
00:05:10.480 maybe I could give practical advice to women,
00:05:12.280 but what would you say to the men who are stay-at-home boys,
00:05:16.880 who can't get a girlfriend?
00:05:17.840 What say you, Emily?
00:05:20.500 Get a job.
00:05:22.420 Move out.
00:05:23.320 You don't need to be online.
00:05:24.900 I don't think online is necessarily a place for men.
00:05:28.700 I think it's a very feminine thing to do.
00:05:31.220 And I just think men need to have,
00:05:33.580 I mean, this is like a rabbit hole.
00:05:36.200 Because obviously, yeah, we've neglected men,
00:05:38.380 which some people can agree with, some people don't.
00:05:41.340 But I just think, yeah, it's a big thing.
00:05:42.780 It's going to be where they're raised,
00:05:44.260 what they're raised by,
00:05:45.080 what religion,
00:05:46.580 what culture,
00:05:47.420 what they're around.
00:05:48.140 I mean, there's so many factors to it.
00:05:49.700 There's literally no black and white answer.
00:05:51.300 And if there was,
00:05:51.920 we'd already have it figured out by now.
00:05:54.180 But obviously,
00:05:54.920 there is going to be some aspect of embracing normal,
00:05:58.080 traditional gender roles.
00:05:59.540 So it's like, yeah,
00:06:00.080 I think maybe if men were out working and not on TikTok,
00:06:03.620 things would be a little bit better.
00:06:04.980 But I don't know.
00:06:05.600 I don't have a definite answer for any of these things.
00:06:07.440 It's also culture.
00:06:08.200 Things have changed.
00:06:08.980 Also, it's so expensive out here.
00:06:11.200 Most men are like,
00:06:12.000 it would be insane to be like,
00:06:13.140 how am I going to be a provider?
00:06:14.320 You have to make millions.
00:06:15.360 And you still feel like you're at the poverty line out here.
00:06:17.760 So what do you say?
00:06:18.620 You say things have changed.
00:06:19.740 That's totally true.
00:06:20.660 I haven't dated since before dating apps existed,
00:06:23.580 actually,
00:06:23.900 because I married my high school sweetheart.
00:06:26.120 And so I just missed it.
00:06:28.200 And I didn't have to deal with a lot of modern dating,
00:06:30.260 even in my single years.
00:06:31.960 So what do you do?
00:06:34.200 Like, you know,
00:06:34.980 if you go out on a date with a guy,
00:06:37.380 you say things have changed.
00:06:38.700 It's hard out there.
00:06:39.340 You got to be a zillionaire to get a wife.
00:06:42.260 First date, does the guy pay?
00:06:44.460 Yes.
00:06:45.000 Yeah.
00:06:45.920 100%.
00:06:46.240 Every date.
00:06:47.260 Yes.
00:06:47.760 Every date.
00:06:48.280 Okay.
00:06:48.660 Does the guy open the door for the girl?
00:06:51.440 Hopefully.
00:06:52.160 Yeah.
00:06:53.000 Does the guy expect any improper behavior
00:06:57.600 that really should only exist between a husband and a wife?
00:07:00.120 No, of course.
00:07:00.880 It's out here.
00:07:01.900 Yeah.
00:07:02.220 It shouldn't.
00:07:02.700 Hold on.
00:07:02.960 Wait, is that of course, yes,
00:07:03.980 or of course, no?
00:07:04.520 They shouldn't.
00:07:05.060 Of course, yes.
00:07:06.280 They do expect it.
00:07:07.440 Is that good?
00:07:08.200 Should they expect it or they should not?
00:07:11.200 Whatever.
00:07:12.060 I mean, I don't,
00:07:12.760 I'm not going to demonize them.
00:07:14.400 It's what most people do.
00:07:17.000 So it is what it is.
00:07:18.520 But do you think,
00:07:19.300 I guess that's kind of getting to the point here,
00:07:21.920 I think.
00:07:22.400 Because if the critique from the women
00:07:25.380 is these men aren't acting like men
00:07:27.240 and they're not being chivalrous
00:07:28.520 and they're not, you know,
00:07:29.540 treating me like the sweet angel that I am.
00:07:31.700 And then the critique from the men is,
00:07:33.240 well, these girls are not behaving
00:07:35.540 like dignified, modest women.
00:07:37.060 They're on OnlyFans
00:07:37.900 and they're, you know,
00:07:38.800 promiscuous or whatever.
00:07:39.980 You can see how both sides got to that place.
00:07:42.760 But then don't we need to raise the expectations
00:07:44.600 and say, no, ladies, be modest.
00:07:46.900 Men, don't be Casanovas.
00:07:49.540 Yeah, you got to raise it on both ends, though,
00:07:51.080 which is very difficult
00:07:51.900 because you also have to get women and men
00:07:53.800 to both admit that they were slightly wrong,
00:07:56.240 which no one wants to do
00:07:57.220 because right now all we do
00:07:58.180 is pin each other against each other.
00:07:59.660 Oh, no, all the women,
00:08:00.840 they're all on OnlyFans
00:08:01.840 and they're all hoeing it out constantly.
00:08:03.740 Oh, all the men,
00:08:04.540 they're just, you know,
00:08:05.840 feminine TikTokers.
00:08:07.120 Like, you got to get to a middle ground.
00:08:08.740 Like, yeah, is it great for every woman out here
00:08:10.820 to be on OnlyFans?
00:08:12.400 No, it's a little crazy
00:08:13.380 because like, look,
00:08:14.220 it is kind of sex work.
00:08:15.480 It's kind of prostitute.
00:08:16.600 Oh, it absolutely is.
00:08:17.620 I would say more than kind of.
00:08:18.560 It is 100% prostitution.
00:08:21.540 Yeah, but also when you have all these men
00:08:23.640 that just go through women
00:08:24.860 because they have unlimited options
00:08:26.060 and this is what most girls are
00:08:27.300 and they're like, yeah, yeah, I want a good girl.
00:08:28.820 But then they say they want a good girl,
00:08:30.020 then they meet the good girl
00:08:30.960 and they cheat on them anyway.
00:08:32.040 So it's just like,
00:08:32.700 it's a very difficult thing
00:08:34.180 that's going to take a long time
00:08:35.180 to try to figure out, honestly.
00:08:36.760 Oh, yeah, so what do we aim at?
00:08:38.340 I guess because there is something
00:08:39.760 that's been delightful to me
00:08:41.180 that's cropped up
00:08:41.860 because I'm a little more,
00:08:43.980 not totally libertarian,
00:08:45.220 you know, I'm a little more traditionalist.
00:08:46.660 I go to the traditional Latin mass.
00:08:48.260 So when this phrase trad life popped up,
00:08:50.340 I thought, let's go, baby.
00:08:51.640 I'm like the hipster of the trad life.
00:08:53.540 You know, I've been doing it
00:08:54.120 since before it was cool.
00:08:55.700 But this creates caricatures.
00:08:59.020 This creates, you know,
00:09:00.280 some people, they take it a little too far.
00:09:03.060 I sometimes tell women
00:09:04.720 that if they want to date
00:09:05.700 at the traditional Latin mass,
00:09:07.280 the odds are good,
00:09:08.020 but the goods are odd.
00:09:09.120 You know, if they're a little bit,
00:09:10.380 a little weird out there.
00:09:11.600 So, Emily, you went viral
00:09:13.800 for critiquing the trad life.
00:09:16.140 I'm sorry.
00:09:16.960 I hate to call out my own party,
00:09:18.920 but the young girls on the right
00:09:20.880 promoting this like trad wife bullshit.
00:09:23.820 I just want to make sourdough
00:09:25.180 for my husband.
00:09:26.040 That's great.
00:09:26.740 I'm all for it.
00:09:27.420 I promote traditional values.
00:09:28.860 I understand.
00:09:29.940 I have been working
00:09:30.900 since I was very young.
00:09:32.140 I don't really plan
00:09:32.940 on stopping working.
00:09:34.480 I suggest you find a hobby
00:09:36.320 that makes you money.
00:09:38.540 But you guys, guess what?
00:09:39.560 Guess what, baby girl?
00:09:40.700 That lifestyle working out?
00:09:42.060 A man, a provider,
00:09:43.120 you just get to sit at home
00:09:43.960 and bake bread every day?
00:09:45.180 Slim to none.
00:09:46.740 I would say none
00:09:47.780 that that's going to work out for you
00:09:49.440 or quite literally anyone you know.
00:09:51.460 You're actually setting yourself up
00:09:53.040 for failure
00:09:53.680 because it could not be easier
00:09:55.600 if that's what you're going to pursue
00:09:56.880 to be trapped by a man.
00:09:59.080 Okay?
00:09:59.620 Also, let's bring some other things
00:10:01.600 to the table besides sourdough.
00:10:03.760 Let's, let's,
00:10:04.440 guys want to be mentally stimulated
00:10:06.460 as well as physical.
00:10:08.260 Okay?
00:10:08.580 But I'm just like,
00:10:09.680 please,
00:10:10.100 you guys are too young
00:10:11.140 to be promoting this.
00:10:12.360 And also,
00:10:12.920 by the way,
00:10:13.440 it's cringe.
00:10:14.580 You guys are cringe, okay?
00:10:16.300 Okay, so Emily says
00:10:17.300 trad life is BS.
00:10:18.440 Savannah,
00:10:19.020 what say you?
00:10:20.240 So I actually don't like
00:10:21.480 the buzzword trad wife
00:10:22.660 because, again,
00:10:23.440 I think it's a,
00:10:23.980 I think it's a buzzword in culture
00:10:25.620 and there's a lot of things
00:10:26.520 tied to it.
00:10:27.640 But I would have to disagree.
00:10:28.400 When I was a kid,
00:10:29.060 we just called them wives.
00:10:30.540 Yeah, that's exactly
00:10:31.980 what we do.
00:10:33.160 Yeah, and now,
00:10:33.640 you know,
00:10:34.580 I would say stay-at-home wife
00:10:36.360 would probably be
00:10:37.160 the proper term for it.
00:10:38.840 But, you know,
00:10:39.280 I would have to disagree.
00:10:40.440 I think that
00:10:41.300 there's a very narrow perspective
00:10:43.840 that when you are a wife
00:10:45.240 who doesn't make her own income
00:10:46.380 and the man is providing
00:10:47.240 that you are trapped by a man.
00:10:49.080 I mean,
00:10:49.380 I will post things
00:10:50.260 about my husband
00:10:50.940 providing for me
00:10:51.780 and they're like,
00:10:52.440 wait,
00:10:52.640 so he leaves you in 20 years
00:10:53.880 and goes and finds a younger girl
00:10:55.220 and leaves you
00:10:56.280 with absolutely nothing.
00:10:57.500 And the truth of the matter
00:10:58.520 is that doesn't really happen,
00:11:00.060 right?
00:11:00.220 Like 70 to 80% of divorces
00:11:03.320 are filed by women
00:11:04.580 who were unhappy
00:11:05.780 or just bored.
00:11:07.040 It really doesn't happen
00:11:07.960 where the man just leaves you
00:11:09.500 with absolutely nothing.
00:11:10.780 I think, too,
00:11:11.840 like my marriage personally,
00:11:13.660 Christ is at the center
00:11:14.480 of our marriage.
00:11:15.620 And if you don't have
00:11:16.700 that foundation,
00:11:17.580 then of course
00:11:18.080 it's going to fall apart.
00:11:18.940 Of course there's going
00:11:19.520 to be infidelity.
00:11:20.400 Of course you're going
00:11:21.320 to be looking elsewhere
00:11:22.180 because you don't have
00:11:24.200 that foundation.
00:11:25.100 And couples that pray together
00:11:26.300 stay together.
00:11:26.860 Like we pray every single night
00:11:28.900 and Christ is at the center
00:11:30.560 and we're going
00:11:31.100 to church together.
00:11:31.800 And we did that
00:11:32.620 from the beginning
00:11:33.520 of our relationship
00:11:34.720 all the way up until now.
00:11:36.580 So I think bringing Christ
00:11:38.100 back into the marriage
00:11:39.100 is really important.
00:11:40.080 And of course,
00:11:40.540 that's where the traditional
00:11:41.380 roles come in.
00:11:43.040 I believe that when you
00:11:44.500 are going 50-50,
00:11:45.820 which is like this new
00:11:46.700 progressive marriage,
00:11:48.260 that it causes
00:11:48.980 a lot of competition
00:11:49.920 and there's actually
00:11:50.680 not any contribution
00:11:51.700 that the man and the woman
00:11:53.540 are just competing
00:11:54.220 with each other
00:11:54.760 because they're both
00:11:55.560 waking up at 6 a.m.
00:11:56.700 They're rushing
00:11:57.480 to get ready.
00:11:58.140 They're going
00:11:58.460 to their 9-to-5.
00:11:59.380 They come home.
00:12:00.020 They're absolutely exhausted.
00:12:01.520 They're splitting the chores.
00:12:03.140 They eat a quick dinner,
00:12:04.240 scroll on their phones,
00:12:05.080 go to bed,
00:12:05.520 repeat the same cycle
00:12:06.280 over and over again.
00:12:07.580 And it's not working out.
00:12:08.980 And you've seen
00:12:09.420 the divorce rates go up
00:12:10.580 and you've seen
00:12:10.920 the birth rates plummet.
00:12:12.440 And so bringing tradition
00:12:13.580 back in,
00:12:14.640 and I'm not saying
00:12:15.300 we all have to be
00:12:16.060 in 1950s gowns
00:12:18.420 and cooking everything
00:12:19.420 from scratch.
00:12:20.300 Wouldn't be the worst idea,
00:12:21.500 but okay, sure,
00:12:22.380 you don't have to.
00:12:23.120 No, it would be great.
00:12:24.180 It would be great.
00:12:24.840 But I think that
00:12:26.280 bringing back the idea
00:12:28.400 of the husband
00:12:29.240 being the head
00:12:29.920 of the household
00:12:30.580 and the woman
00:12:31.480 being his help
00:12:32.280 like it was in the Bible,
00:12:34.080 like it literally says
00:12:34.880 in the Bible,
00:12:35.760 would help a lot
00:12:36.700 of marriages.
00:12:38.060 Emily, does that
00:12:38.840 do anything for you?
00:12:40.160 No, I stand on
00:12:41.060 everything I said.
00:12:42.600 You know what's the funniest
00:12:43.660 part about my video was?
00:12:45.500 I mean, that's literally
00:12:46.200 just common sense.
00:12:47.120 You can't even argue
00:12:47.960 with any of it.
00:12:48.760 There's statistical data
00:12:49.800 on my side
00:12:50.440 for every single thing
00:12:51.320 I said,
00:12:52.220 especially if you're
00:12:53.280 getting married super young,
00:12:54.800 the odds of that
00:12:56.180 working out.
00:12:56.780 The difference is I pray
00:12:57.720 it does work out
00:12:58.380 for everyone,
00:12:59.100 but also I'm just looking
00:12:59.920 at things from a perspective.
00:13:01.160 But it's funny
00:13:01.520 because I was like,
00:13:02.080 I must have triggered
00:13:02.700 something in all these
00:13:03.500 housewives because
00:13:04.180 I was like,
00:13:05.260 how happy are you guys
00:13:06.320 that you flood
00:13:07.060 my comment sections
00:13:08.440 wishing horrible things
00:13:10.020 to happen on me?
00:13:10.840 And I'm like,
00:13:11.160 so you're not really
00:13:11.620 proving my point
00:13:12.320 that I think any of you
00:13:13.300 are happy.
00:13:14.300 And yes,
00:13:14.600 not even just the fact
00:13:15.560 of divorce.
00:13:16.200 Divorce is what?
00:13:16.760 Probably 50%
00:13:17.680 of this country,
00:13:18.320 potentially more.
00:13:19.120 It's a little less,
00:13:19.960 but it's high.
00:13:21.180 Yeah, it's high.
00:13:22.160 People lose their jobs.
00:13:23.440 People die.
00:13:24.380 People get sick.
00:13:25.360 There's a lot of factors
00:13:26.300 to that.
00:13:26.940 It's also like,
00:13:27.520 I don't understand
00:13:28.060 these women
00:13:28.900 who claim to be so happy
00:13:30.300 that are telling me
00:13:31.220 to kill myself online
00:13:32.200 because I have an opinion,
00:13:32.980 which is what I do
00:13:33.580 for a living.
00:13:34.500 I'm like,
00:13:34.920 I promote women
00:13:35.600 can have it all.
00:13:36.600 I work full time.
00:13:37.640 I also cook.
00:13:38.580 I also clean.
00:13:39.580 I do everything.
00:13:40.680 It's not something
00:13:41.300 to be put down,
00:13:42.380 which is the problem
00:13:43.060 with these trad wives
00:13:44.320 are hating on women
00:13:45.400 that work.
00:13:45.940 And it's like,
00:13:46.420 we're not forcing you
00:13:47.180 to work.
00:13:47.800 I like working.
00:13:48.860 It makes me happy.
00:13:50.420 So I'm like,
00:13:51.060 do you?
00:13:52.120 But this pressing
00:13:53.440 this life on everyone,
00:13:54.680 it's not for everyone.
00:13:55.800 And it's also not going
00:13:56.620 to work out for everyone.
00:13:57.640 And that's just life.
00:13:58.560 Yes, Savannah.
00:13:59.160 Why are you trying
00:13:59.700 to force your views
00:14:00.440 on Emily, huh?
00:14:02.620 I don't force my views
00:14:03.920 on anyone.
00:14:04.440 Listen,
00:14:04.780 all of my girlfriends
00:14:05.620 have jobs
00:14:06.300 or they're in university.
00:14:07.480 And we get along
00:14:08.540 and they respect my lifestyle
00:14:09.800 and I respect their lifestyle.
00:14:11.560 Do I think women
00:14:12.720 with children
00:14:13.440 who are married
00:14:14.020 are happier?
00:14:14.900 Yes,
00:14:15.460 there are statistics
00:14:16.140 that show that.
00:14:17.500 But we live in a world
00:14:18.600 where I'm not going
00:14:19.380 to tell women
00:14:19.900 what to do.
00:14:20.520 They can go to work.
00:14:21.340 They can do whatever
00:14:21.820 they want.
00:14:22.200 They can be on OnlyFans.
00:14:23.860 But do I think
00:14:24.780 that they're happier
00:14:25.600 when they have a band
00:14:26.600 providing for them
00:14:27.300 and they have children?
00:14:28.240 Yes,
00:14:28.520 because it's just
00:14:29.240 our primal nature.
00:14:30.340 But then you said
00:14:30.940 I was bitter.
00:14:31.560 How am I bitter?
00:14:32.220 Because I work,
00:14:32.980 I cook,
00:14:33.340 I clean,
00:14:33.800 and my man fully
00:14:34.600 takes care of me
00:14:35.320 and I have my own money
00:14:36.160 to take care of myself.
00:14:37.080 Because there would be
00:14:39.400 no reason to go online
00:14:40.900 and bash women
00:14:41.740 who do have that lifestyle
00:14:43.140 unless you were bitter
00:14:44.640 about it.
00:14:45.260 It doesn't make sense
00:14:46.400 to regardless.
00:14:46.780 My job is to give
00:14:48.080 opinions for a living.
00:14:49.760 It's an opinion.
00:14:50.800 If you were truly happy,
00:14:52.560 you wouldn't be so triggered.
00:14:54.000 But you took it
00:14:54.780 extremely personal.
00:14:56.000 I'm like,
00:14:56.140 sweetie,
00:14:56.320 I'm not talking to you.
00:14:57.080 It's an opinion.
00:14:57.660 I give them for a living.
00:14:58.460 I have a job.
00:14:59.440 But then why don't you like it
00:15:00.680 that other people
00:15:01.220 give you opinions
00:15:01.920 in your comments?
00:15:03.160 No,
00:15:03.340 it's funny
00:15:03.620 because it's like
00:15:04.040 you're clearly triggered
00:15:05.100 as if you're that happy,
00:15:06.920 you wouldn't be bothered.
00:15:08.140 And she thinks
00:15:08.680 I'm like talking about her.
00:15:09.720 I'm like,
00:15:10.100 no,
00:15:10.240 I'm talking about
00:15:10.860 all the young girls online
00:15:12.420 that are literally
00:15:13.280 promoting this
00:15:13.960 than ironically
00:15:14.540 doing it as a job
00:15:15.700 to grift and make money
00:15:17.040 as well,
00:15:17.520 which is so funny
00:15:18.280 because it all comes
00:15:19.140 for a full circle.
00:15:20.440 There is some of that.
00:15:21.420 I do agree.
00:15:22.240 I think that
00:15:23.020 from my perspective,
00:15:24.940 yeah,
00:15:25.120 encouraging girls
00:15:25.820 who are single
00:15:26.400 and who aren't married
00:15:27.640 and even if they want
00:15:28.960 that trad lifestyle,
00:15:30.220 go ahead and do something
00:15:31.520 with yourself.
00:15:32.220 In the meantime,
00:15:33.120 set yourself up
00:15:34.020 so that,
00:15:34.900 hey,
00:15:35.040 if that trad life
00:15:35.940 that you want
00:15:36.660 doesn't come to be
00:15:38.560 because right now
00:15:39.300 we do live
00:15:40.080 in especially
00:15:40.580 a very godless society,
00:15:42.420 and a lot
00:15:43.340 of traditional values
00:15:44.180 come from the Bible.
00:15:45.500 So if you're just
00:15:46.500 going to sit
00:15:47.040 and live with mom
00:15:48.700 and dad all your life
00:15:49.580 until Prince Charming
00:15:50.480 comes and saves you
00:15:51.640 and gives you
00:15:52.320 that trad life,
00:15:53.580 that may not happen.
00:15:55.080 So go ahead,
00:15:55.860 get a job,
00:15:56.560 have a plan for yourself
00:15:57.680 if it comes down to it.
00:15:59.320 But to say that
00:16:01.400 the trad life
00:16:02.660 is cringe
00:16:03.340 or anything like that,
00:16:04.720 I completely disagree.
00:16:05.980 No,
00:16:06.200 the fake trad life
00:16:07.280 that they promote online
00:16:08.420 is cringe.
00:16:09.280 People that sit at home
00:16:10.680 and are like,
00:16:11.100 I did nothing today
00:16:12.640 and I'm taken care of
00:16:13.720 and I'm happy.
00:16:14.800 Oh my god,
00:16:15.580 get a job.
00:16:16.260 Literally,
00:16:16.660 I want to be like,
00:16:17.240 get a job.
00:16:17.980 Like,
00:16:18.140 sorry,
00:16:18.440 it's cringe
00:16:19.060 and it's gross.
00:16:19.780 And it's so funny.
00:16:20.460 I'm like,
00:16:20.660 why are you out here
00:16:21.440 promoting trad life
00:16:22.540 24-7 dying on this hill
00:16:24.440 when half these chicks
00:16:25.400 aren't even married
00:16:25.960 or have kids?
00:16:26.620 I'm like,
00:16:26.940 go get those babies
00:16:28.420 popped out.
00:16:29.220 Go live that life.
00:16:30.280 You're dying
00:16:30.900 on that hill online.
00:16:32.660 I'm just calling it out.
00:16:33.740 What about this point?
00:16:34.760 So you made a point there
00:16:36.280 because I see a lot of it.
00:16:38.140 I see the criticism,
00:16:39.120 which is,
00:16:39.700 you know,
00:16:39.940 if you're a trad life influencer
00:16:41.900 and,
00:16:42.940 you know,
00:16:43.140 your life is mostly
00:16:44.440 like on camera,
00:16:45.820 it's hard for that
00:16:47.300 to be trad.
00:16:48.100 It's hard to be trad
00:16:48.920 on TikTok,
00:16:49.520 right?
00:16:49.720 You know,
00:16:49.900 trad involves,
00:16:50.820 you know,
00:16:50.980 you're kind of more focused
00:16:52.100 on the private life
00:16:52.980 and the home
00:16:53.340 and the kids
00:16:53.720 and the bread,
00:16:54.280 which is great
00:16:54.800 and it's all fabulous.
00:16:56.440 But I see there's
00:16:57.420 a little bit of a tension there.
00:16:58.680 But,
00:16:58.840 but to Savannah's point,
00:17:01.360 you know,
00:17:02.160 most divorces
00:17:03.080 are initiated by women.
00:17:04.380 So it's not that
00:17:05.580 some women aren't passed up
00:17:06.480 for the secretary.
00:17:07.420 That does happen,
00:17:08.280 but it's,
00:17:08.820 that's relatively minor.
00:17:10.160 It more seems to be
00:17:11.360 impelled by feminism
00:17:12.620 and by women's choices.
00:17:14.520 And,
00:17:15.040 you know,
00:17:16.400 on the notion
00:17:17.720 of having it all,
00:17:18.900 at a certain point,
00:17:20.700 you can't have it all.
00:17:21.580 If you're at work
00:17:22.340 eight hours a day
00:17:23.240 at the widget factory
00:17:24.120 doing the spreadsheets,
00:17:25.440 those are eight hours
00:17:26.300 that you're not going to be
00:17:27.140 with your kids
00:17:27.800 or baking bread
00:17:28.700 or,
00:17:29.120 you know,
00:17:29.420 dusting the bookshelves
00:17:30.140 or whatever it is.
00:17:30.660 So I grant that women
00:17:32.240 can have lots of different goods
00:17:34.020 in their lives.
00:17:35.140 But,
00:17:35.300 but sometimes
00:17:35.980 there is a decision
00:17:37.820 you have to make.
00:17:38.860 And I think the question
00:17:40.060 that's being raised here
00:17:40.820 by Melanie and Savannah is,
00:17:42.360 is it better,
00:17:43.440 is it more conducive
00:17:44.460 to women's happiness
00:17:45.200 to put on
00:17:47.700 the Victorian era gown
00:17:48.920 or not,
00:17:49.640 or you can wear modern clothes,
00:17:50.700 but have the kids
00:17:51.560 get married,
00:17:52.440 bake the bread,
00:17:53.240 do the house stuff?
00:17:54.460 Or is it more conducive
00:17:56.040 to women's happiness
00:17:56.780 to go out
00:17:57.920 and work at a corporation
00:17:59.120 and have a career?
00:17:59.800 My answer is do both.
00:18:02.860 But how can you do,
00:18:03.840 meaning if you're going
00:18:04.880 to do the one,
00:18:05.760 you're going to spend
00:18:06.800 just in what would be
00:18:08.140 your work day,
00:18:09.300 eight hours a day
00:18:10.120 with the kids.
00:18:11.400 Kids aren't going
00:18:11.900 to be with the nanny,
00:18:12.500 they're going to be with mama
00:18:13.200 and mama's going to be
00:18:13.960 making breakfast,
00:18:14.620 lunch, and dinner
00:18:15.140 and you're going to be
00:18:16.200 giving them piano lessons
00:18:17.140 or whatever.
00:18:17.800 That's one kind of thing.
00:18:19.300 Or you could be doing
00:18:20.380 spreadsheets at the widget factory
00:18:21.680 or whatever the job is.
00:18:23.120 But,
00:18:23.400 you know,
00:18:24.100 they're only 24 hours in a day.
00:18:25.320 At a certain point,
00:18:25.960 you're going to have,
00:18:26.720 when you have to make a decision,
00:18:28.100 am I going to spend my time
00:18:28.760 doing this or that?
00:18:30.520 Which is better?
00:18:31.940 I don't believe
00:18:32.620 in this choosing thing.
00:18:33.720 We live in a modern day society.
00:18:35.540 There's so many factors to this.
00:18:37.380 It's not just,
00:18:38.000 this whole thing of tribewives,
00:18:39.140 oh,
00:18:39.500 the corporate slave.
00:18:41.000 First of all,
00:18:41.480 I've loved most of my careers
00:18:43.200 and most of them
00:18:44.140 weren't eight hour days
00:18:45.720 Monday through Friday.
00:18:47.020 These women can have jobs
00:18:48.280 and still be at home
00:18:49.160 and still be with the children.
00:18:50.460 Also,
00:18:50.820 a lot of women
00:18:51.420 have kids
00:18:52.240 and I hate to say it,
00:18:53.140 are not fully fulfilled by that
00:18:54.640 and are like,
00:18:55.060 dude,
00:18:55.220 I need to go back to work.
00:18:56.320 I need to be around adults.
00:18:57.340 Like,
00:18:57.460 sorry,
00:18:57.640 that's a real thing.
00:18:58.300 A lot of my friends are married.
00:18:59.520 A lot of them have kids.
00:19:00.840 So it's just like,
00:19:01.540 I think this whole thing,
00:19:02.260 instead of constantly being like,
00:19:03.520 you have to pick.
00:19:04.460 Also,
00:19:04.720 a lot of these women
00:19:05.300 make content
00:19:06.440 and have full-time jobs
00:19:08.200 as they have careers.
00:19:09.240 And especially,
00:19:09.720 a lot of those women
00:19:10.380 are the top women
00:19:11.400 in right-wing media,
00:19:12.360 which is so funny
00:19:13.320 watching these young girls
00:19:14.500 hate on these women.
00:19:15.840 Meanwhile,
00:19:16.200 I'm like,
00:19:16.480 those are the women
00:19:17.080 you would die to achieve
00:19:18.200 to have that type of lifestyle.
00:19:19.440 I'm not going to sit here
00:19:20.120 and hate on,
00:19:20.780 what,
00:19:21.680 Ingram,
00:19:22.120 Kelly,
00:19:22.540 all these women,
00:19:23.300 Allie Bestucki,
00:19:23.960 all these women.
00:19:24.620 They have full-time jobs
00:19:26.000 and they also are able
00:19:27.040 to be moms
00:19:27.600 and take care of their kids.
00:19:28.600 I doubt all those women
00:19:29.880 are horrible mothers.
00:19:32.040 But that's the thing.
00:19:32.660 I'm like,
00:19:32.920 I'm not going to tell women
00:19:33.740 they have to choose.
00:19:34.920 You can do both.
00:19:35.740 You can make it work.
00:19:36.560 And the more money you have,
00:19:38.000 the more opportunities
00:19:38.840 and you're going to have
00:19:39.520 ways to help.
00:19:40.460 Maybe then I can go hire
00:19:41.540 someone to cook
00:19:42.340 or to clean
00:19:43.060 and spend more time
00:19:43.980 with my kids.
00:19:44.000 I know you can,
00:19:44.600 that's what you have to do.
00:19:45.900 And I agree,
00:19:46.880 it is kind of funny.
00:19:48.580 You know,
00:19:48.860 if you are on TV
00:19:49.860 every day for a living,
00:19:51.440 by definition,
00:19:52.060 you're not living
00:19:52.700 the most traditional lifestyle.
00:19:53.980 You know,
00:19:54.180 there are a lot of perks to it
00:19:55.480 and a lot of good things.
00:19:56.980 But yes,
00:19:57.340 of course,
00:19:57.640 I totally grant that.
00:19:58.780 But I think you're evading
00:20:00.240 the question
00:20:00.680 because the point
00:20:02.060 you've just made is,
00:20:02.720 look,
00:20:02.840 I can hire a nanny,
00:20:03.600 I can hire a chef,
00:20:04.340 I can take the money.
00:20:05.080 Yeah,
00:20:05.360 I know,
00:20:05.900 I know,
00:20:06.200 that's one kind of life.
00:20:07.940 But when you say
00:20:09.500 you can have it all,
00:20:10.700 that it violates
00:20:11.720 Aristotle's law
00:20:12.760 of non-contradiction
00:20:13.660 because the two choices
00:20:15.460 I'm presenting,
00:20:16.040 two ways of life are
00:20:16.920 that I'm presenting at least,
00:20:18.120 are you're at home.
00:20:20.260 You don't have a job.
00:20:21.820 You have a lot of jobs,
00:20:22.720 but you don't have a career.
00:20:23.660 You have,
00:20:23.860 your life is in the private sphere.
00:20:25.980 The other version is
00:20:27.080 your life is in the public sphere,
00:20:28.360 but you get to do a lot of fun
00:20:29.420 like wife,
00:20:30.060 mom stuff too.
00:20:31.440 And I'm,
00:20:31.760 but I'm saying
00:20:32.220 those are separate things.
00:20:33.960 Savannah or Melanie,
00:20:35.120 do you have thoughts
00:20:36.020 on if one is better
00:20:37.500 than the other
00:20:38.000 or are we all just going to be
00:20:39.100 like modern people
00:20:39.800 and not make a decision?
00:20:41.120 I think if you're actually
00:20:42.040 looking at children
00:20:43.140 and upbringing
00:20:43.760 and obviously,
00:20:45.140 I,
00:20:45.440 my mom was a,
00:20:46.400 a trad wife,
00:20:47.680 she still is.
00:20:48.600 She raised my brothers and I,
00:20:50.260 she stayed at home
00:20:51.180 and,
00:20:51.780 and homeschooled us
00:20:53.380 while my dad provided
00:20:54.320 for the family.
00:20:55.680 And there's no way
00:20:57.420 that she could have had
00:20:58.420 a full-time job
00:20:59.340 and homeschool us
00:21:00.860 and take care of the home
00:21:02.220 and do all the cooking
00:21:03.780 and all of that stuff.
00:21:05.060 So for that,
00:21:05.780 I'm very grateful
00:21:06.700 because especially
00:21:07.460 when you get on the subject
00:21:08.740 of public schools
00:21:09.720 in general,
00:21:10.500 they're indoctrination systems.
00:21:12.620 And also,
00:21:13.600 it's hard for kids
00:21:14.540 to really be kids
00:21:15.980 when they're at such
00:21:16.760 a young age
00:21:17.540 having their 9 to 5
00:21:19.600 already
00:21:20.140 in the school system.
00:21:22.320 So the fact that,
00:21:23.860 that my mom
00:21:24.900 dedicated her time
00:21:26.740 into homeschooling
00:21:28.100 my brothers and I,
00:21:28.720 I'm so grateful for that.
00:21:30.040 And so,
00:21:31.000 not to say that
00:21:31.660 every kid that's in public school
00:21:33.100 doesn't have a good mom
00:21:34.200 and all that,
00:21:35.060 but I think
00:21:36.180 in an ideal scenario
00:21:37.520 for children,
00:21:39.460 a mom would stay home
00:21:40.740 and raise them.
00:21:42.120 Hold on.
00:21:42.960 I have a lot more
00:21:43.920 pearls of wisdom.
00:21:44.700 First though,
00:21:45.200 go to balanceofnature.com
00:21:46.560 use promo code Knowles,
00:21:47.640 K-N-O-W-L-E-S.
00:21:48.980 You've heard me talk
00:21:49.780 about balance of nature
00:21:50.680 many times before.
00:21:51.680 That's because balance of nature
00:21:52.500 fruits and veggies
00:21:53.040 is the most convenient way
00:21:54.380 to get whole fruits
00:21:54.980 and vegetables daily,
00:21:56.220 especially if you're focused
00:21:57.080 on creating a healthier,
00:21:58.020 happier lifestyle.
00:21:59.280 Nature is pretty good
00:22:00.040 at giving us the nutrients
00:22:00.980 we need through our fruits
00:22:01.840 and vegetables.
00:22:02.800 So balance of nature
00:22:03.640 takes fruits and veggies,
00:22:04.980 freeze dries them,
00:22:05.980 turns them into a powder,
00:22:07.040 and puts them into a capsule.
00:22:08.300 You take your fruit
00:22:08.840 and veggie capsules every day
00:22:10.040 and then your body
00:22:10.540 knows what to do with them.
00:22:11.780 Balance of nature
00:22:12.320 is just one ingredient
00:22:13.060 of a balanced lifestyle,
00:22:14.040 has no intention
00:22:14.640 to replace a healthy diet,
00:22:16.320 exercise, sleep,
00:22:17.280 or any other healthy habits.
00:22:18.680 It is intended to be used
00:22:19.680 in concert with other
00:22:21.000 healthy habits,
00:22:22.060 especially for me,
00:22:23.600 someone who's on the road a lot
00:22:24.780 when sweet little Lisa
00:22:26.380 isn't making me
00:22:26.980 my fruits and veggies.
00:22:27.940 It's nice to have a way
00:22:28.960 to make sure I get them
00:22:30.820 on the go.
00:22:31.220 I don't just collapse
00:22:32.080 from ill health.
00:22:33.220 Go to balanceofnature.com

00:22:47.340 My mom worked from home.
00:22:49.500 She was a settlement consultant,
00:22:51.020 so she only worked
00:22:51.800 when she had a case
00:22:52.660 come to her.
00:22:53.300 But she sacrificed
00:22:55.440 a lot of work
00:22:56.400 when she had us as kids
00:22:57.640 and she was able
00:22:58.360 to basically be
00:22:59.240 a stay-at-home mom
00:23:00.040 who took maybe
00:23:01.080 like two conference calls
00:23:02.520 a month.
00:23:03.380 So she could have made
00:23:04.640 a lot more money
00:23:05.560 than she did,
00:23:06.160 but she sacrificed that
00:23:07.140 to raise us as kids.
00:23:08.820 So I don't think
00:23:09.660 that you can have it all
00:23:11.040 because having it all
00:23:12.260 would be her
00:23:13.040 making as much money
00:23:14.460 as she can with work,
00:23:15.520 being very successful
00:23:16.420 in her career,
00:23:17.200 and also having
00:23:18.380 successful children.
00:23:20.040 But you have to sacrifice.
00:23:20.600 You can't bi-locate.
00:23:21.540 You can't be in two places
00:23:22.680 simultaneously.
00:23:23.100 Yeah, no.
00:23:24.160 No, and I mean,
00:23:25.020 she took us to school
00:23:26.420 every day.
00:23:26.760 She picked us up.
00:23:27.460 She was at all of our games.
00:23:28.600 She was at all of our events.
00:23:29.880 And I would not trade
00:23:30.820 that for the world.
00:23:32.160 And that was a good example
00:23:32.980 to me because when I have kids,
00:23:34.460 I want to be at everything.
00:23:36.040 I want to watch them grow up.
00:23:37.820 I don't want somebody else
00:23:38.880 raising my children
00:23:39.640 or even my parents
00:23:41.460 raising my children
00:23:42.260 because they have to watch them.
00:23:43.580 So I think I had
00:23:44.860 a great example of that
00:23:45.720 growing up.
00:23:46.340 Even my mom would tell you
00:23:47.760 like, no,
00:23:48.780 I had to sacrifice
00:23:49.800 a lot of money
00:23:50.820 and a lot of my career
00:23:52.460 to raise children,
00:23:53.420 but she'll tell you
00:23:53.940 it was 100% worth it.
00:23:55.260 You know, my wife,
00:23:56.180 she's done both.
00:23:57.300 Sweet little Elisa
00:23:57.900 is a real,
00:23:58.500 she's a real trad wife.
00:23:59.500 She bakes the bread.
00:24:00.220 She makes the pasta.
00:24:01.300 She does all the stuff,
00:24:02.820 you know,
00:24:02.980 takes the kids out.
00:24:03.840 But she also,
00:24:04.740 she has a PhD.
00:24:05.920 She's had a career.
00:24:07.600 She has a doctorate.
00:24:09.040 I have an honorary doctorate.
00:24:10.080 I'm just the arm candy, really.
00:24:11.420 But she's done that
00:24:12.260 and she quit her job.
00:24:13.480 And she quit her job
00:24:14.320 because we've been
00:24:15.760 spitting out enough kids
00:24:16.800 that it got to the point
00:24:18.100 where she was going to have to make
00:24:19.260 real choices.
00:24:20.440 Hire,
00:24:21.280 more child care,
00:24:22.420 spend less time with the kids,
00:24:23.940 or quit the job.
00:24:26.160 But it finally had come down to it
00:24:28.180 and you have to make a choice.
00:24:29.360 And she chose
00:24:30.400 the trad life,
00:24:31.840 the trad wife life.
00:24:32.860 But she did have
00:24:34.460 Emily's caveat there,
00:24:36.000 which is that
00:24:36.840 a lot of these moms
00:24:38.420 who decide,
00:24:39.260 okay,
00:24:39.340 I'm going to stay home,
00:24:40.000 I want to be with the kids more,
00:24:40.880 I don't want to,
00:24:41.560 they still want some money
00:24:43.200 or they still want some kind
00:24:44.120 of outside intellectual activity.
00:24:46.540 So they'll make content.
00:24:48.620 You know,
00:24:48.840 they'll like make,
00:24:49.660 they'll post on Instagram.
00:24:51.040 And so it is this little bit
00:24:52.880 of a kind of
00:24:53.760 trying to have it all
00:24:55.220 sort of thing.
00:24:55.980 But my question,
00:24:56.940 I guess maybe I'm more authoritarian
00:24:58.040 than anyone on the panel.
00:24:59.200 I don't know.
00:24:59.400 I haven't heard you weigh in
00:25:00.220 on this, Melanie.
00:25:00.980 But I do not have the view,
00:25:02.920 as you suggested, Savannah,
00:25:04.460 that, you know,
00:25:05.120 look, a woman,
00:25:05.800 if she wants to do
00:25:06.400 whatever she wants,
00:25:07.040 that's fine.
00:25:07.440 She can go on OnlyFans.
00:25:08.900 I don't know.
00:25:09.780 I don't,
00:25:10.200 it should not,
00:25:10.700 that OnlyFans should be banned.
00:25:12.700 The operators should be arrested.
00:25:14.040 I agree.
00:25:14.460 And shipped off to St. Helena,
00:25:16.260 you know.
00:25:16.700 So I think we should put
00:25:17.960 lots of limits
00:25:18.660 on all this stuff.
00:25:19.700 And the question that I have is,
00:25:22.120 is we're trying to bridge
00:25:23.220 the divide between the sexes
00:25:25.100 so that we can,
00:25:25.780 people can have good lives.
00:25:29.120 What is best for these people?
00:25:31.700 We have no problem saying
00:25:33.100 that it is better for the boy
00:25:35.100 to get out of his mother's basement.
00:25:36.480 It is better for the boy
00:25:37.500 to go out,
00:25:38.460 get a job,
00:25:39.220 not be a stay-at-home son
00:25:40.760 or whatever.
00:25:41.460 You know,
00:25:41.640 it's better for him.
00:25:42.620 He should,
00:25:43.140 he should,
00:25:43.540 he should.
00:25:44.580 But then when it comes to women,
00:25:45.700 we say,
00:25:46.180 well,
00:25:46.540 they can do whatever they want.
00:25:47.800 Maybe this is better,
00:25:48.480 but maybe it's not.
00:25:49.180 Maybe this,
00:25:49.800 but I want,
00:25:50.320 I want shoulds.
00:25:51.420 I want you to tell women
00:25:52.820 what to do.
00:25:54.440 What is best for the women?
00:25:55.740 Emily?
00:25:55.940 I think men should go out and work.
00:25:59.280 I think women should go out and work.
00:25:59.900 I think women should also educate themselves.
00:26:03.620 I think they should find a job
00:26:04.820 that makes them happy.
00:26:06.340 You don't have,
00:26:06.780 we don't all have to pretend
00:26:07.580 like every job is slave labor.
00:26:08.940 I've had many careers.
00:26:10.240 I've been happy in all of them.
00:26:11.480 I think women should have something
00:26:13.320 that's theirs on their own.
00:26:15.440 I also think it gives you more options.
00:26:17.900 It makes you,
00:26:19.220 in my opinion,
00:26:20.240 because I give those for a living,
00:26:21.280 more valuable and better off.
00:26:24.140 And when they find someone,
00:26:25.400 if they choose to become a stay-at-home,
00:26:28.140 trad wife,
00:26:28.860 whatever BS they call it online now,
00:26:31.000 then that's fantastic.
00:26:32.060 If they want to have hobbies,
00:26:33.320 if they want to work a little,
00:26:34.340 if they want to quit their jobs,
00:26:35.640 whatever's best for them
00:26:36.640 that makes them happy.
00:26:37.420 And the children,
00:26:38.080 that's great.
00:26:38.620 I support all that.
00:26:39.380 Okay.
00:26:39.660 Now, so then the question,
00:26:40.660 of course,
00:26:40.940 this begs the question,
00:26:41.700 which is what makes people happy,
00:26:43.320 which is where we stay.
00:26:43.880 What is actually conducive to happiness?
00:26:45.700 Modernity tells you a lot of things
00:26:46.800 are going to make you happy
00:26:47.440 and they don't.
00:26:48.500 But then I see in your answer,
00:26:50.180 Emily,
00:26:50.440 a lot of,
00:26:51.260 they should have choice.
00:26:52.300 They should have something
00:26:52.980 on their own,
00:26:53.900 something independent.
00:26:54.940 But I am skeptical of that.
00:26:56.960 Okay.
00:26:57.420 I don't have a lot of choices.
00:26:59.140 I mean,
00:26:59.360 I do,
00:26:59.840 and I get to do whatever I want.
00:27:00.660 I don't even have a real job.
00:27:01.520 You know,
00:27:01.600 I just do,
00:27:01.940 this is my job.
00:27:02.560 Is this even a job?
00:27:03.660 But I,
00:27:04.640 but I don't have a lot of choices.
00:27:06.720 I am married.
00:27:07.680 I got to be home
00:27:08.320 at a certain time.
00:27:09.400 Most nights,
00:27:10.120 I got to do stuff.
00:27:11.920 I got,
00:27:12.460 I've got to make some money
00:27:13.600 because I've got to pay
00:27:14.460 certain bills.
00:27:15.600 I don't accept divorce
00:27:17.540 under any circumstances.
00:27:18.720 I don't have a prenuptial agreement.
00:27:21.160 My wife could take me
00:27:22.040 to the cleaners
00:27:22.560 if she wanted to.
00:27:24.020 You know,
00:27:24.520 it is,
00:27:25.160 I am,
00:27:25.520 I don't have choice.
00:27:26.860 I don't have things
00:27:27.780 that are really independent
00:27:28.680 from my wife.
00:27:29.580 We don't,
00:27:30.000 we don't have separate
00:27:31.160 personal bank accounts
00:27:33.100 or anything.
00:27:33.440 We don't have separate
00:27:34.240 anything really.
00:27:35.120 We sleep in the same bed.
00:27:36.500 So is,
00:27:37.060 my question then is,
00:27:38.120 is it really good?
00:27:39.140 I know modernity says
00:27:40.060 it's good to be independent
00:27:40.940 and have choices
00:27:41.600 and endless options
00:27:42.600 or whatever.
00:27:43.580 Does that really make you happy?
00:27:44.840 Melanie?
00:27:46.060 I honestly don't even like
00:27:47.800 the phrase
00:27:48.300 do what makes you happy.
00:27:49.600 I think you need a foundation
00:27:50.760 and that foundation
00:27:51.900 is the Bible
00:27:53.380 instead of subjective morality.
00:27:55.060 We're not always going to be,
00:27:56.360 have the opportunity
00:27:56.920 to do what makes us happy
00:27:58.160 because what makes us happy
00:27:59.760 at all times
00:28:00.360 isn't necessarily right.
00:28:01.860 We need to do the right thing.
00:28:03.180 And the Bible
00:28:04.120 has a strong foundation
00:28:06.160 for how men should behave,
00:28:08.500 what men should do
00:28:09.280 and women.
00:28:10.360 So we can't just live life
00:28:13.040 based on you do you.
00:28:14.540 Let's have this subjective morality
00:28:16.080 because things just go crazy.
00:28:18.300 You got pride parades.
00:28:19.320 You got kids being mutilated.
00:28:21.600 Like things just spiral
00:28:22.580 out of control.
00:28:23.560 So do what's right.
00:28:24.840 Follow the Bible.
00:28:26.180 That's okay.
00:28:27.060 That's a pretty straight answer.
00:28:28.220 So Emily's answer is
00:28:29.600 do the things that make you happy
00:28:31.300 as you know,
00:28:32.140 follow your bliss.
00:28:33.320 Yours is do follow the Bible
00:28:35.300 even if you,
00:28:35.960 even if you think
00:28:36.600 it might not make you happy.
00:28:37.520 It will in the long run.
00:28:39.020 Savannah,
00:28:40.000 what should women do?
00:28:41.080 I think the word choice
00:28:44.320 is very over glorified
00:28:45.820 in our society.
00:28:46.880 Like choice is so sexy.
00:28:48.340 We love having choice.
00:28:50.060 I mean,
00:28:50.800 I would agree with you,
00:28:51.700 Michael.
00:28:52.140 You know,
00:28:52.540 in my marriage,
00:28:53.360 I don't leave,
00:28:54.100 I would not leave my husband
00:28:55.040 under any circumstance.
00:28:55.940 We follow the Bible.
00:28:57.160 We're loyal to each other.
00:28:58.380 He's the head of the household.
00:28:59.400 So he makes the decisions
00:29:00.660 in our family.
00:29:01.540 And I'm actually happier that way.
00:29:03.320 I mean,
00:29:03.500 I'm very young.
00:29:04.500 I got married at 18,
00:29:05.800 but before then
00:29:06.520 I was given all these choices
00:29:07.660 like,
00:29:07.980 oh,
00:29:08.080 well,
00:29:08.180 you could move here
00:29:09.140 and go get a degree here.
00:29:10.280 Go get a job here.
00:29:11.560 And that was overwhelming.
00:29:13.420 That was actually more depressing
00:29:15.020 than living in a marriage
00:29:16.480 that is a unit
00:29:18.300 and where you,
00:29:19.680 in which you don't have
00:29:20.680 a ton of choices
00:29:21.260 and you don't have
00:29:21.920 a ton of freedom,
00:29:22.860 quote unquote.
00:29:23.920 And so I,
00:29:25.380 if you watch my content,
00:29:26.600 you know that I usually say
00:29:27.580 you should do this.
00:29:29.100 You ought to do this
00:29:30.240 because statistically speaking,
00:29:32.480 married women with children
00:29:33.380 are happier.
00:29:34.820 But again,
00:29:35.520 I'm going to have to agree
00:29:36.300 with Melanie too
00:29:36.980 that the Bible
00:29:37.640 is the foundation
00:29:38.360 and Christ is the foundation
00:29:39.480 will make you want
00:29:41.240 to do things
00:29:42.100 that are inherently traditional
00:29:44.280 and that are biblical.
00:29:46.060 So I would say
00:29:46.820 that choice
00:29:47.620 has just gotten
00:29:48.460 so out of hand
00:29:49.480 and we ought to go back
00:29:51.260 to biblical principles.
00:29:52.920 All right.
00:29:53.520 Now,
00:29:53.780 it seems like
00:29:54.320 the divide here
00:29:55.080 is you got
00:29:56.100 Melanie and Savannah
00:29:57.860 are like really
00:29:58.700 pro-trad life.
00:30:00.260 Emily,
00:30:00.700 you're being made out
00:30:01.820 to be the liberal feminist here,
00:30:03.700 even though you're
00:30:04.160 pretty conservative,
00:30:05.140 right?
00:30:05.260 I know,
00:30:05.780 it's funny because
00:30:06.300 everyone says
00:30:06.780 I'm like too far right,
00:30:08.680 which is like
00:30:09.120 there's no winning,
00:30:09.900 is there?
00:30:11.220 But do you sense,
00:30:12.240 do you feel
00:30:15.420 that you are
00:30:16.200 a little more
00:30:16.740 on the liberal
00:30:17.280 or feminist side
00:30:18.140 compared to
00:30:19.160 some of the women
00:30:19.860 who are pushing
00:30:20.300 the trad life?
00:30:22.540 I mean,
00:30:22.960 textbook definition feminism
00:30:24.540 of wanting men and women
00:30:26.060 to have like equal rights,
00:30:27.420 yeah,
00:30:27.780 like I would not deny that,
00:30:29.300 of course.
00:30:30.040 You would call yourself
00:30:30.660 a feminist
00:30:31.100 because I don't think,
00:30:32.220 I know people always say
00:30:32.980 feminism means
00:30:33.980 you want men and women
00:30:34.760 to have equal rights.
00:30:35.460 I think that's BS.
00:30:36.600 I think it's an ideology.
00:30:37.860 Well, that's what it's supposed
00:30:38.080 to mean and what it did mean
00:30:39.320 until it got hijacked
00:30:40.460 by everything.
00:30:41.120 Now, if you say
00:30:41.700 you're a feminist,
00:30:42.440 everyone's calling you
00:30:43.180 a liberal
00:30:43.580 and all these different things.
00:30:45.460 But I mean,
00:30:46.080 actually,
00:30:46.820 sorry to interrupt,
00:30:47.440 but I mean,
00:30:48.080 I'd go back even further.
00:30:49.780 I don't think
00:30:51.320 it ever actually meant that.
00:30:52.720 I think that was a way
00:30:53.420 to sell feminism.
00:30:54.680 But I think going back
00:30:55.540 to like Mary Wollstonecraft
00:30:56.920 in the early days
00:30:57.660 of feminism,
00:30:58.400 I think it was just basically
00:30:59.700 a view of human nature
00:31:00.820 that said men and women
00:31:02.000 are pretty much the same.
00:31:02.840 And rather than
00:31:04.560 the classical view
00:31:05.560 of human nature,
00:31:06.100 which is that men and women
00:31:06.840 are different,
00:31:08.000 vive la différence,
00:31:09.180 we're complementary,
00:31:10.480 you know,
00:31:10.800 men are from Mars,
00:31:11.480 women are from Venus,
00:31:12.360 but, you know,
00:31:13.020 we all get together
00:31:13.660 in the solar system.
00:31:14.540 So I think it goes deeper than that.
00:31:15.960 That's one reason
00:31:16.580 why I would never say
00:31:17.440 I'm a feminist
00:31:17.940 is because I don't,
00:31:19.880 I just don't think
00:31:20.560 that's how human nature works.
00:31:21.900 I love women.
00:31:22.880 I think women are marvelous.
00:31:24.160 I am as far from a misogynist
00:31:26.800 as it is possible to be.
00:31:28.200 But I just don't,
00:31:29.300 I don't think men and women
00:31:30.080 are the same.
00:31:30.580 I think certain things
00:31:31.260 are better for men,
00:31:31.780 certain things are better for women.
00:31:33.400 No, I think what makes us
00:31:34.700 different are our strengths.
00:31:36.300 I think trying to blend
00:31:37.060 those together
00:31:37.640 is a complete weakness.
00:31:39.100 I think men and women
00:31:40.020 are completely different animals
00:31:41.940 and should be treated differently.
00:31:43.860 So it's like,
00:31:44.360 the problem is
00:31:45.120 they're trying to blend
00:31:45.860 these things to be like,
00:31:46.960 oh, we should just be
00:31:47.680 living the same life
00:31:48.700 and doing the same things.
00:31:49.880 Absolutely not.
00:31:50.720 That clearly is not working out
00:31:52.180 as we see that in society.
00:31:53.660 Do I think women
00:31:54.400 should have the right to vote
00:31:55.940 and all these things?
00:31:56.860 Which, yes,
00:31:57.360 all the pick-me feminists,
00:31:58.600 they're like,
00:31:59.120 oh my God,
00:31:59.760 women shouldn't even vote.
00:32:00.940 Like, I'm sorry.
00:32:01.680 I think that's embarrassing.
00:32:02.980 I think literally
00:32:03.700 all they're doing
00:32:04.420 is trying to get attention
00:32:05.280 from men, ironically,
00:32:06.100 because most of them
00:32:07.500 are probably unhappy
00:32:08.360 in their marriages
00:32:09.500 and not happy
00:32:10.160 with all the choices
00:32:10.820 they've made.
00:32:11.400 I'm also coming
00:32:12.020 from a different perspective.
00:32:13.220 I'm in a city.
00:32:14.000 I'm also not super religious.
00:32:15.560 I'm very clear
00:32:16.160 about that online.
00:32:17.100 But I'm not going to pretend
00:32:18.180 like I'm a part
00:32:18.780 of this new wave of feminism.
00:32:20.220 I mean,
00:32:20.720 being in one of the bluest
00:32:21.680 places in the country,
00:32:23.040 I live a very,
00:32:24.880 ironically,
00:32:25.600 traditional
00:32:26.080 and conservative lifestyle.
00:32:27.240 I don't drink.
00:32:28.020 I don't smoke.
00:32:28.520 I don't do drugs.
00:32:29.200 I don't go out.
00:32:30.340 We're having dinner.
00:32:31.060 We're cooking.
00:32:31.580 We're with the dogs.
00:32:32.460 We'd like to get married
00:32:33.420 one day and have kids.
00:32:33.820 Emily, my definition
00:32:34.440 of conservatism,
00:32:35.460 you actually have to drink
00:32:36.440 and smoke.
00:32:37.020 It's actually a requirement.
00:32:38.900 Listen,
00:32:39.420 I see your point
00:32:40.500 because sometimes
00:32:41.560 they say women shouldn't vote.
00:32:43.260 I think,
00:32:43.620 hold on,
00:32:43.900 then we're going to lose
00:32:44.620 all the elections
00:32:45.180 because we get all the married.
00:32:46.220 Only married women should vote.
00:32:47.760 The single women should not vote
00:32:48.860 because they all vote
00:32:49.280 for Democrats.
00:32:50.060 But if you really wanted
00:32:50.980 to embrace the trad life,
00:32:52.900 of course,
00:32:53.360 nobody should vote.
00:32:54.320 But that's a topic
00:32:55.060 for another time.
00:32:55.960 Ladies,
00:32:56.200 thank you so much.
00:32:57.380 So much of it
00:32:58.300 is so hypocritical
00:32:59.500 and ironically,
00:33:00.340 a lot of these statements
00:33:01.660 are literally just from women
00:33:03.480 to appease men
00:33:05.340 and I'm sorry.
00:33:06.340 I'm just like,
00:33:06.840 I'm not going to get behind that.
00:33:08.360 And they called me
00:33:09.140 a liberal feminist
00:33:10.000 and Tommy Lauren
00:33:11.240 and all these people
00:33:12.120 and look,
00:33:12.700 we're allowed to have
00:33:13.280 different perspectives
00:33:14.020 and that's also supposed
00:33:15.000 to be the right wing.
00:33:15.960 We're not supposed
00:33:16.340 to be liberals.
00:33:17.020 We're supposed to
00:33:17.520 have different perspectives
00:33:18.760 and actually be able
00:33:20.260 to coexist with each other.
00:33:22.180 Right.
00:33:22.420 And I'm not completely
00:33:23.540 on the end of like,
00:33:24.640 oh, women shouldn't vote
00:33:25.560 and this or that.
00:33:26.060 I think women
00:33:26.780 should be able to vote.
00:33:27.640 So I'm definitely
00:33:28.280 with you on that.
00:33:29.660 And I also,
00:33:30.420 I guess so.
00:33:34.000 But I also think
00:33:35.280 even if you look
00:33:36.120 at the Bible,
00:33:36.640 you look at the Proverbs 31 woman,
00:33:38.520 she still had a job.
00:33:40.220 It granted,
00:33:40.820 it didn't take priority
00:33:42.100 over her household.
00:33:43.700 So I think that
00:33:44.640 when we're talking
00:33:45.420 about roles,
00:33:46.640 as if a woman
00:33:48.080 wants to be able to work,
00:33:49.080 I mean,
00:33:49.500 I'm not in a 1950s
00:33:51.100 dress right now.
00:33:52.780 Not yet, Melanie.
00:33:53.740 Yeah, not yet.
00:33:54.900 Not yet, at least.
00:33:56.400 So I work.
00:33:57.760 And so I can't claim
00:33:59.240 that everything
00:33:59.900 has to be this exact same way.
00:34:02.200 So I do understand
00:34:03.160 that element of it.
00:34:04.280 But I think that
00:34:05.120 the priority
00:34:05.800 with a woman
00:34:07.200 in marriage,
00:34:09.080 and especially
00:34:09.820 if kids are involved,
00:34:11.020 should be the home.
00:34:12.560 That is the priority.
00:34:13.940 Anything else
00:34:14.600 that she wants to do,
00:34:15.400 if she wants to get
00:34:15.860 a part-time job,
00:34:16.980 she wants to do this
00:34:17.580 or that,
00:34:18.180 as long as it doesn't
00:34:19.680 interfere with
00:34:20.880 what she's able
00:34:21.820 to do at home.
00:34:23.760 And I think it's good
00:34:24.280 if you're talking
00:34:24.880 about women
00:34:25.660 initiating divorce
00:34:26.780 and being unhappy,
00:34:27.980 I think a good part
00:34:29.080 of that is
00:34:29.600 how do we keep women
00:34:30.680 happy and stop
00:34:32.020 that from happening?
00:34:32.820 So saying,
00:34:33.280 oh, you know,
00:34:33.940 not forcing,
00:34:34.680 if going to work
00:34:35.880 three hours a week
00:34:36.780 makes her happy,
00:34:38.380 whatever it is,
00:34:39.120 then maybe that
00:34:39.680 should be also
00:34:40.220 a priority
00:34:40.740 if the divorce
00:34:41.560 is initiated
00:34:42.160 and so high.
00:34:43.060 I have this crazy idea
00:34:44.220 maybe we should
00:34:44.980 restrict the divorce
00:34:45.840 laws again,
00:34:46.560 but that's much,
00:34:47.620 that's the much more
00:34:48.500 trad right-wing view.
00:34:49.380 Savannah,
00:34:50.020 you have been
00:34:50.640 characteristically demure,
00:34:52.820 quiet,
00:34:53.460 and trad
00:34:54.200 in this last
00:34:55.260 little segment here.
00:34:56.480 Final word.
00:34:58.040 I mean,
00:34:58.960 so I personally
00:34:59.960 don't think women
00:35:00.620 should vote
00:35:01.080 and that's probably
00:35:01.720 going to be
00:35:02.020 a very far opinion
00:35:03.800 and that's not
00:35:04.560 to get male validation,
00:35:07.280 that's simply like,
00:35:08.440 I maybe married women
00:35:10.100 because it would just
00:35:10.800 be like my husband
00:35:11.540 having another vote,
00:35:13.020 but, you know,
00:35:13.620 during like the
00:35:14.280 suffragist movement,
00:35:15.280 they sold this to women
00:35:17.240 as,
00:35:17.980 oh,
00:35:18.080 now you can vote
00:35:18.940 differently than
00:35:19.580 your husband,
00:35:20.600 so now you have
00:35:21.240 choice.
00:35:22.200 And so if we're
00:35:22.760 going to erase
00:35:23.440 women's choice
00:35:24.300 as in,
00:35:24.880 you know,
00:35:25.520 going on OnlyFans
00:35:26.620 or working
00:35:27.080 or whatever it may be,
00:35:28.160 then you have to
00:35:29.700 repeal the 19th too.
00:35:31.200 I mean,
00:35:31.400 I just don't,
00:35:32.180 that we're losing
00:35:33.040 elections.
00:35:33.700 We lost in the,
00:35:34.920 what was it,
00:35:35.440 2020 because women,
00:35:37.100 single women were voting.
00:35:38.500 So I think that's
00:35:39.480 the problem.
00:35:39.860 I thought it was
00:35:40.380 the ballot drop boxes,
00:35:41.540 but it's a fair point.
00:35:42.400 I mean,
00:35:42.500 there were plenty of women
00:35:43.400 during the suffraget movement.
00:35:45.140 Voter ID,
00:35:46.000 but it's like,
00:35:46.300 also,
00:35:46.580 didn't you vote?
00:35:47.180 Didn't you vote for Trump?
00:35:49.720 Well,
00:35:50.220 yeah,
00:35:50.760 but it was like,
00:35:51.200 my husband had another vote.
00:35:52.820 I'm not voting against my husband.
00:35:54.900 If I was voting against my husband,
00:35:56.640 that would be a problem.
00:35:57.500 I don't think couples should be
00:35:58.720 voting against each other,
00:35:59.940 right?
00:36:00.700 And I think the man should be
00:36:01.620 the head of the household.
00:36:02.360 So I can see that element of it
00:36:04.480 for sure.
00:36:05.140 Women should be voting against
00:36:06.040 her husband.
00:36:06.340 So Melanie,
00:36:06.540 you're more on Savannah's side.
00:36:07.620 I'm kind of in between
00:36:08.680 because like,
00:36:09.580 I don't want to be told
00:36:10.360 I can't vote.
00:36:11.220 I'm single too.
00:36:12.340 So I don't want to be told
00:36:13.520 I can't vote.
00:36:14.560 Like,
00:36:14.680 I'm being taxed.
00:36:15.200 I would be told,
00:36:15.940 look,
00:36:16.420 sorry to interrupt Melanie,
00:36:17.660 but I'm a millennial.
00:36:19.260 Millennials have voted
00:36:20.080 traditionally for Democrats.
00:36:21.660 If you told me,
00:36:22.560 Michael,
00:36:22.740 we're going to disenfranchise
00:36:23.680 all the millennials,
00:36:24.360 you'll never get to vote again,
00:36:25.700 but we're going to get
00:36:26.540 good government.
00:36:27.620 Say like,
00:36:27.980 where do I sign up?
00:36:28.980 Take all my votes,
00:36:30.000 please.
00:36:30.400 I don't,
00:36:30.620 it's a hassle to go vote.
00:36:31.520 What do I need that for?
00:36:32.240 The point of the voting
00:36:33.060 is the good government
00:36:33.740 and the,
00:36:35.020 to your point,
00:36:35.800 Savannah,
00:36:36.160 I mean,
00:36:36.340 there were a lot of women
00:36:37.200 who were opposed
00:36:38.140 to the suffragettes
00:36:39.100 and they didn't want
00:36:40.500 the right to vote.
00:36:42.180 And the reason I don't think
00:36:43.540 was that they were,
00:36:44.460 you know,
00:36:44.780 dumb or slaves
00:36:45.960 or something like that.
00:36:47.040 Their arguments
00:36:47.840 were the argument
00:36:48.940 that the basic unit
00:36:50.560 of society
00:36:51.140 should be the family,
00:36:52.300 not the individual.
00:36:53.500 So they were making
00:36:54.160 principled arguments.
00:36:55.400 You can disagree
00:36:55.900 with those arguments.
00:36:56.780 Obviously,
00:36:57.420 they're kind of irrelevant now
00:36:58.440 because women have had
00:36:59.120 the right to vote
00:36:59.480 for a hundred years,
00:37:00.480 but they were making
00:37:01.660 serious arguments.
00:37:03.100 So then,
00:37:03.560 I don't know.
00:37:03.980 I mean,
00:37:04.100 what do you say,
00:37:04.840 Emily?
00:37:05.500 I don't think
00:37:06.360 we're going to repeal
00:37:06.820 the 19th Amendment
00:37:07.480 anytime soon,
00:37:08.180 but would it not
00:37:10.980 be more conservative
00:37:11.800 if the political order
00:37:13.940 was based on the family
00:37:14.980 rather than the individual?
00:37:16.860 Yeah,
00:37:17.060 but there's also,
00:37:17.800 that goes across
00:37:18.400 too many different things
00:37:19.520 of like rights
00:37:21.160 that we should have
00:37:22.160 and that's just,
00:37:23.080 it's just ridiculous.
00:37:24.040 I don't even really believe,
00:37:25.760 like,
00:37:25.900 yeah,
00:37:26.080 okay,
00:37:26.280 would we be more conservative?
00:37:27.940 Sure.
00:37:28.280 Would I risk like
00:37:29.180 all females
00:37:30.860 not being able to vote?
00:37:32.220 No,
00:37:32.680 and I don't really think
00:37:33.440 females believe that.
00:37:34.540 I think they say
00:37:35.100 these things online
00:37:36.020 to get male validation.
00:37:37.640 Savannah,
00:37:38.080 are you a pick me?
00:37:38.900 Are you doing pick me stuff?
00:37:40.740 I'm married.
00:37:41.700 I'm married.
00:37:42.320 I don't need to be picked.
00:37:43.320 I've already been picked.
00:37:44.000 Yeah,
00:37:44.060 but every single thing
00:37:44.980 you say
00:37:45.580 is literally appealing
00:37:47.560 to men
00:37:48.400 and usually hating
00:37:49.620 on women as well,
00:37:50.820 which is funny
00:37:51.280 because I would think
00:37:51.980 if I was in a happy marriage,
00:37:53.720 I wouldn't even do,
00:37:54.440 like,
00:37:54.720 I would just go out
00:37:55.600 and just be happy
00:37:56.300 and do my thing.
00:37:57.140 I think the advice
00:37:57.800 you give to women
00:37:58.540 is awful.
00:37:59.660 I think it's out of
00:38:00.320 detriment to them
00:38:01.220 and I don't think
00:38:02.040 it comes from true happiness
00:38:03.260 and I think it really
00:38:04.080 does come out of insecurity
00:38:05.360 from being in frankly
00:38:06.280 a lavender marriage
00:38:07.220 as everyone online can see.
