Speaker 1 (0s): Hey there, bow and bow ties. So look, you know, after thinking about the videos I've done this week and I see so many more coming out, 'cause that's what happens once you select one or two, you get a whole bunch in your, your timeline, you know, this is what I think, and it's not based on hardcore facts. It's just my observation, my own eyes and ears. I think that many people are just engaging in a lot of projection.

So if you've got women who've had a really bad experience with men, they're projecting all of their bad experiences onto other women and vice versa with some of the blacked out weirdo do to our, i I don't even get me started with some of their talking points, which is why you have to limit any consumption of that type of content. They project so much, so much, and I'm just sitting here thinking like, we have to get out of this.

I don't know what it is. I don't know how to get people to get off of some of these same weirdo podcasts of these women and men and get out there and say the same things over and over. I'm telling you, they're creating these video manifestos, they're turning into manifestos. Like it's really weird. It's just so weird. I think what's happening, like I said, is they're projecting their bad experiences onto other people. They're, they're, they're telling you, don't do this because I did this and my ex-husband and blah, blah, blah.

And there was that one time back in band camp, I saw this. I'm like, you know, if more people got out here And, they talked about some of the other sides of whatever, dating relationships, whatever, maybe people would think differently. Now, don't get me wrong, I do think we're in a blacked out weirdo era right now. We are in this phase where I think that there might be a little bit of nihilism that seems to be going on. I do think that many people are practicing learned helplessness, I think many people are apathetic.

And that's not to say that some of the things that people are talking about aren't true, right? So I'm gonna be honest. But what I will say is they're painting this picture is like, everyone needs to stop doing these things. Like especially with these, these psycho women out here. Everyone's gotta like get on board with all these 500 movements, right? And if not, you're not a real feminist. You're not one of us. And if you fall down and if you should happen to have a bad time because maybe you want a relationship or whatever it is, you're not one of us.

Don't come back to us. I'm like, listen to how silly they sound. Now I also understand the sentiment of like, there are women, like when they fall in love and all these good things and And, they discard their female friendships, right? I understand saying, Hey, you don't want to do that. but I also don't think we should be demonizing people who do genuinely seek companionship and friendship from the opposite sex maybe relationship to whatever, whatever, whatever it is that you're looking for.

You have this wh who will preach against all those things and make it seem like you are a problem because you wanna get out there and you wanna dust yourself off and try again, right? And I would say the same thing for the men. There are men out here who are not down with all these silly talking points and they're like, you know what? I do like having relationships with women and I know I'm just one person.

But let me just say this. I talk to men. Well, I work with a lot of men too. But when you talk to men, you know, there's many men out there who genuinely enjoy talking with women, right? And, and it's not even like in a sexual way. like you can debate on sports or talk about something funny or whatever it is, right? And there's not like this, I hate being around women thinking like women are the source of evil. Many of them go home to wives.

Many of them have friends from years ago that know they don't, they're not like close, inappropriate or anything like that, but they have healthy relationships with the opposite sex. And what I'm saying is when you get moving back to the women's side, 'cause you know, that's how I think about it. They are definitely I think I understand people wanting to focus on themselves, but this beating up the chest, like everyone was like, and we gotta adopt this movement that started in South Korea.

And I was just like, what? Like, it's, it's just really psycho to me, listening to some of these women get out here confirming their bias by how they curate their support videos and, and primarily like, you know, the internet is not really real, although there could be a sign at the current, you know, times it's, they're out there curating certain videos, they're putting them, they're putting them together as if it's all true.

Now, I mean, don't get me wrong, everybody does it. But what I'm saying is they, they will have you believing like the world is crashing and burning as far as men and women. I I think them highlighting some of the issues. There's nothing wrong with that. but I just feel like, they make it sound like, Hey, if you are a woman, like just don't deal with men, this, that and the other. And if you are, because you choose to want to have these kinds of relationships when it falls apart, don't come back to us.

They, they, they act like they're pro woman and they're not. They are not. They are not. They're actually quite divisive. Anybody. I said what? I said, don't be mad at me. you know, be mad at yourself. But I think, like, like a lot of times they'll say, you don't understand. I'm like, I do understand what the movement is. I just don't necessarily agree with the messaging.

I don't agree with all of it. And it's okay for me to disagree. All right, I think that's pretty much it. Don't let all these crazy psycho men and psycho women project their bad relationships onto you. Don't let them do that. If I had done that, I would've been disillusioned and would've never given my husband a chance. And I'm gonna give you guys a, a, a little something, something my husband had asked me out and I turned him down the first time.

He asked me out to happy hour and I wasn't gonna go. And my friend was like, why don't you wanna go? And I was like, I'm not really into dating right now. She was my mate of honor my way. I was like, I really, I was just like, eh, but she convinced me to go out to happy hour and I had such a good time with my husband 'cause he was, I was just like this, this man has no sense. But he was so funny. Like, and he, he was just really cool, you know?

It wasn't, it was very light. It was funny. He had a good time, you know, and I'm glad, well, well the rest is history. But she was like, go on after happy hour with that man. What is wrong with you? I'm like, I dunno. but I wasn't even mad. I was literally just like over dating and I was taking a break. The rest is history. So, let me leave that one with you. all right, you guys go out there and go talk to people in the flesh in real life.

Not behind these cameras, except for if you wanna watch all of my videos because I'm a full on hypocrite. So go watch all my videos and this subscribe. Make sure you actually hit the thumbs up. That means you literally have to take your long et finger and touch the thumbs up, okay? And then leave a comment. Say how amazing I am in every way, and I can practically do no wrong. all right?
