03:46:25Gretauh uh his intentions were good next to 300 okay we did this one did we do this one can you read this one do you want to read this one they get TR care that's about it LOL
03:46:38GretaI mean divorcing him she could have taken half of his paycheck and get a free house how long did you know this boot did you even know his Rank and if you do I'm guessing I'm going to guess he was between a whatever the private or
03:46:51Gretalieutenant corporal L corpal excuse me he was a lance corporal and I knew him for about two
03:47:01Stevemonths so if I can touch on this I moved to San Diego in the Navy when I was 19 andan I was broke as [ __ ] I was living on the ship for about a month which
03:47:14Steveliving on the ship is like living in a coffin where I had my work uniform my PT uniform and a little bit of workout clothes and one set of clothes to go out to the clubs at and gas
03:47:25SteveLam and when I heard about getting married for BAH which is the basic housing allowance and they told me that I could move my paycheck from like I
03:47:35Stevelike 15,000 20,000 a year to 60,000 a year I was actively hunting to try and get married and I I talked to a couple girls trying to get married because I
03:47:48Stevewas like I was selling I was a Salesman I was like hey you're going to get insurance I know you don't have insurance I'll pay you 500 a month whatever and we can get a house we can be roommates or I'll get the house and
03:47:58Brian Atlasdo my own thing I I need money so that's where he's coming from and what did he say they get triker and that's about it mhm I know exactly okay uh speed the silent as a man with a body count of one
03:48:11Brian Atlasand still looking for the one that six a night is gross six a night can we agree six having sex with
03:48:22Brian Atlassix at least agree on this having sex with six different people in the night kind of gross that's a bit up there feral yeah is it a little yeah Common Ground that's a bit much I think she
03:48:34Gretaactually is kind of like oh that sounds exciting oh my God no I'm not I mean I you did that once no I don't think it's good and I I just don't believe that
03:48:46Gretaanybody should call anybody gross as a person because of sex I just think that's I mean it's not good I don't I would not want to have sex with
03:48:57Gretadifferent people gross act the ACT is gross but the person herself is not gross for it sure I mean well but I just don't like putting people down so I mean are there but okay are there let's
03:49:09Brian Atlasremove sex from this conversation are there any behaviors that someone can engage in where you feel like it might be justified to call the person gross yes but we're not allowed to talk
03:49:21Brian Atlasabout them so okay well I think I know what you're trying to say but what
03:49:28Brian AtlasI'm if I ate worms for living that's gross huh what like if you eat worms for a living like that's gross yeah but I'm thinking of like PG
03:49:42Brian Atlasthings um if somebody never showered for a week straight or I don't know a month would
03:49:51Gretathat be gross could we call them gross yeah you are I mean I think it's gross but I just wouldn't personally go up and be like ew you're so gross cuz
03:50:03Gretayou don't do this because I just think that's personally rude but like if we're talking about that yeah I think it's I wouldn't have sex with six people I wouldn't not take a shower for six days cuz it's gross but I would tell the
03:50:16Brian Atlasperson but I'm not sure exactly why you're making this argument because he said that six of night is gross it's not clear to me he could be addressing the behavior and he's not necessarily saying
03:50:27Brian Atlasand I'm agre I'm just saying that I'm making a point that I'm not saying the person isoss me personally though I I will take it a step further and say the IND on the individual level that
03:50:38Brian Atlasindividual is gross that is gross behavior and by proxy you are a gross person if you engage in Gross Behavior you're that makes you
03:50:52Gretagross I still personally call you have if you have mult gross things that a person can do I just personally would
03:51:01Madisonnot call a person gross because of it that's just not taking accountability I mean
03:51:11Brian Atlasif a woman if a woman has the seed of six different men inside of her I don't maybe this is a hot take but yeah that's pretty gross I wouldn't want to I wouldn't want
03:51:23Brian Atlasto be with a woman I wouldn't want to have sex with a woman if she even had one other guys it's amazing to me that like this
03:51:32Brian Atlasjust seems like common sense to me but like yeah even just if another guy just had sex with you I would find it gross to then have sex with you and I'm not
03:51:43Gretadisagreeing with you I just made it an extra point to say that I'm not calling the individual gross the ACT can be gross I it's polite of you I guess
03:51:53Brian Atlasyou're very [ __ ] friendly right yeah yeah I mean okay all right uh Hey Greta I'm running out of Twisted te's you want me to put some on the side for you Johnny Simon is this one of your

03:53:11Courtney Ferristhat when they let their emotions get the most of them yes can you sco your mic like closer to the edge please I think more often than not yes okay Madison I think they execute not well
03:53:24Laurenokay so I'm going to go on the table on this um have you ever faked an orgasm yes
03:53:32Brian Atlasno yeah I mean no yes yeah yes no oh and the GU is okay
03:53:41Steveum okay how can you fake it yeah spin on the back what the [ __ ] it's a thing it's a
03:53:50Brian Atlasthing okay all right that girl clueless like I'd be able know yeah I feel like a girl with know I feel like a girl you know when Al involved yeah um let me uh
03:54:03Brian AtlasI don't know if this is going to apply to some of you but who here has while on a date reached for your purse offered to pay for the bill or your bill but you would be upset if the guy took you up on your offer to split wait what like
03:54:16Brian Atlashypothetically like cuz some there's definitely this thing I think some women will like do a token act like you're going to but you don't want oh do you want me to get it yeah but then if the guy would be like oh yeah sure you'd be
03:54:28Brian Atlaslike the [ __ ] but is this hypothetically or if it's happened um well I guess has it if it's happened to you or what would your if you were to put yourself in that
03:54:40Gretasituation how would you feel oh like would you do that yeah I'd pay for it I wouldn't be mad if he like okay took me
03:54:48Laurenup on it yeah I'd pay okay I guess I'd pay I I feel like that'd be weird I don't know I I definitely would do the token like
03:55:00Brian Atlasbut if the guy was like oh cool would you kind of be like oh yes oh yes yeah if he asked me on the date I'm not going to offer to pay but do you have you ever done the token do you want me to get it no because I'm not going to act like I'm
03:55:11Juliagoing to pay if I'm not I have and we settled on 50/50 and I was a little a little little bit like you it was like a little turnoff for you I wouldn't say a
03:55:21Juliaturn off but I was like oh negative brownie points a little bit um what is that word I forget the word you're not mad you're just
03:55:32Madisondisappoint took note of it I took note I took note okay U Madison what about you I only do the token if I'm actually willing to pay for it so but I wouldn't mind
03:55:45Brian Atlaspaying are you able to scoot him to the table like that way just a little more um okay so I asked you do you think Communications is important I asked who here faked an orgasm I asked about this whole perspect what didn't you guys say
03:55:57Brian Atlasthose of you who like okay with the fake orgasm thing isn't that bad communication yeah yeah like that's you
03:56:07Julianot communicating that's you your you you can fix that by like telling them what to do I guess but it's on you I mean it's on you there's a few reasons why you fake an orgasm you fake an
03:56:20Juliaorgasm because you want it to end and you just want to quick like all right let's get this over with you fake an orgasm because you want him to feel cuz you did enjoy it so okay and you want him to feel good about his performance
03:56:32Juliabecause it was good and it and he should feel good about it but you know if if he's really going to give you an orgasm y'all are going to have to be there for 30 more minutes and no one has time for that and you want to go to bed so like is it that difficult to make you
03:56:43Juliaclimax I think for most women for women yeah it's pretty I mean like it's got to be rip for you guys okay so yeah sorry sorry about that and that because so in
03:56:55Juliathat in that scenario you're actually yeah you're you're communicating well because you're trying to reinforce his behavior you want that behavior to continue that's I think
03:57:06Brian Atlasthat's a no you're smart bro thank you that's so wait you want to reinforce what Behavior exactly you he did a good job good job boy not good he
03:57:17Juliadid a good job look it's job I think it's hard for for um for the other partner to make a woman orgasm cons it's hard I mean it's it's like a
03:57:31Juliait's like erroneous they're just not doing it right I'm sorry I know I know every woman you've been with you every time I know but um I think honestly most
03:57:40Brian Atlaswomen I'm I'm with I'm not trying to gas myself up or I can most of the women I've been with I can make them come really y oh well what's the percentage
03:57:51Brian Atlasit's 80 90% I'd say I feel that how do but I actually make an effort like I make an effort to do it you're a giver what how do you know if they weren't lying you know you can you I mean look
03:58:03Brian Atlassome women can be very convincing but like there's I mean there's different orgasm responses from between different women
03:58:13Stevebut if she's faking the leg convulsing then like props on her she got it she got or the the okay anyways okay okay okay what whatever
03:58:24Brian Atlaswhatever there's guys do it's they do great and it feels fun okay getting away from like the that whole thing I guess what I'm trying to The Impossible the
03:58:35Brian Atlasclitoris is the Rubik's cube of the okay huh not impossible rare not it's rare from haven't you had like long-term boyfriends and they're they struggle to get you
03:58:46Juliaoff rip do you want me to be obviously um yeah he made I orgasmed like once maybe twice there might have been a with all your boyfriends um I
03:58:58Juliawith okay no I've only ever orgasmed with one man and was it one time one time for sure and then I think there were two or three there were there was two one to
03:59:09Juliatwo other times that it I was like I think it could be you but you but there was only one time when I was like that's the I just want to go to bed no one talked to me like I was like I'm that was amazing I just can sleep I didn't
03:59:22Brian Atlascare about his satis I'm sorry that sounds selfish but I was like wait he knocked me out question how many so there's only one guy who's ever made you come mhm and he only made you come a
03:59:32Juliacouple times mhm how many times have you had sex total total hundreds thousands I don't think thousand I we had sex quite
03:59:44Juliaa bit he and I oh my God I hope my mom doesn't watch this um this is so embarrassing we were frequently intimate
03:59:53Juliaand um hundreds of I mean I I would say I have a very I have a very high sex drive I had a higher sex drive than he did and and yeah but I didn't mind I mean
04:00:06Brian Atlaslike I it's okay no that's fine I mean some for some women some women have difficulty orgasming um well I wouldn't say that because there's other ways but
04:00:16Brian Atlaswith another person wait with another person like with another with a in my case guy it's You' said you've said that you've there's only one guy who's ever made you come and he was only able to do
04:00:27Brian Atlasit like once or a couple times I know look if I if I need to get the job done I can do it really fast which might be the problem that might be the well there's a couple problems so okay when when it comes back to you guys saying well men are poor
04:00:40Brian Atlascommunicators I think I forgot the answers for all of you a fair amount of you said that you faked orgasms that's poor communication now in response to what you were saying about you didn't
04:00:51Brian Atlasask if you thought I was a bad Communicator well I mean there's a totality of different factors that would lead to an overall rating of poor or bad communicator but when it comes I mean
04:01:03Brian Atlasthe fact that you were faking orgasms though probably was has led to some degree to you not climaxing with Partners well I mean he knew that like you could ask him he would say I he knew
04:01:15Juliayou were faking or come three times maybe yeah he thinks three I think he thinks three yeah but you also said you faked orgasms would you fake orgasms every time you had sex no no no no but why would you why would you I'm confused
04:01:28Juliathose one or two time well first there how many times have you faked an orgasm I well I mean like when it was not with the other like the early days okay okay we're talking like n you know 18
04:01:40Juliayears old it was and I had the one col you know the one college that I that he didn't do anything so might as well been dead fish but
04:01:52Brian Atlasum yeah you asked me if I faked orgasm so the the one or two that I'm like I think maybe I don't know I mean but if so if you're here's the thing if you're
04:02:01Brian Atlasdating a guy and you're not coming and you can come by yourself sure yeah sex still feels even for men even if we don't it feels
04:02:11Brian Atlasto you know like that's great but wouldn't it be better if you did come I guess I suppose but that just seems like a big when is it ever a bad
04:02:21Brian Atlasthing to orgasm but okay um okay yes okay fine but but it is I mean you are you'll have women who are claiming to be sexually dissatisfied in
04:02:32Brian Atlasrelationships yet they're faking orgasms which doesn't you're not communicating with your partner that you're not climaxing that doesn't give the man the opportunity to improve we aren't mind
04:02:43Brian Atlasreaders some women their orgasm response is like very specific and it it can require a lot sometimes there's a lack of communication there I
04:02:55Brian Atlasmean I think as a guy if you can get it organically if you can make her come organically great but if you can't if you can't look I think women
04:03:06Brian Atlasshould should communicate about it I think also it's fine if a guy says hey so what do you like you like a little faster slower pressure do you like um
04:03:17Julialeft right up down what do you you know what do you like um well you know I love this podcast because I learn things every time Brian so trust me that one's going in the books it but but
04:03:28Brian Atlaslike if you fake orgasms he's going to think that he's getting the job done but he's not so you should and I think it's a terrible one in addition to just how that's going to negatively
04:03:40Brian Atlasimpact your pleasure on the sexual front you're just you're lying to the guy well I was I will say I was very happy with our sex life other than other than the DraStic guilt I felt every time I had
04:03:53Courtney Ferrissex happy with your sex life but you were frequently faking your orgasm is that because he was a bad Communicator you didn't feel comfortable communicating with him no I felt super
04:04:01Brian Atlascomfortable no no I I could have I just wanted to I just okay I don't know but you're saying but
04:04:13Brian AtlasI get that you like you want to cuz obviously for us men like if we can make our girl come that's a turn on for us like that's
04:04:25Brian Atlasawesome we've 100% it's a turn on for us it's great but I think you're kind of almost trying to cheat that by faking an orgasm but that I feel like I'm sitting down the guy and saying hey you're ready to sit down for a 4-Hour project cuz
04:04:36Brian Atlasthat's what it's about to be you know hours to come I'm not saying I don't know when you're alone how long does it take yourself to make yourself come you said it takes my what a couple minutes
04:04:47Brian Atlasyeah so there is probably some granted like a guy is probably never going to have your body figured out as good as you but there's probably certain things that he could do and maybe that if it if
04:05:00Brian Atlasit is really that difficult to get you to climax maybe introducing toys into the bedroom okay okay I don't know but
04:05:09Stevefaking orgasms that's just a l I think yeah don't do that don't lie to me for me and and you said the same thing we're going to be asking or guys should
04:05:20Stevebe asking what do you like say say the words what do you like she's going to tell you and if if not then she's going to fake an orgasm and she's like okay I'm not I'm not down with this I don't
04:05:31Madisonlike anymore I have a question Steve why did why did you fake an orgasm oh no like I just want to know like why would a guy fake an orgasm
04:05:41Stevebecause I wasn't going to come and it had been going yet I was not going to come and I think I was getting soft and I was not feeling I was not feeling anymore I
04:05:52Brian Atlaswas tired it's like 4:00 a.m. I'm trying to go to bed okay and she already came so it's Works done allegedly allegedly we have in the future I'm just going to
04:06:04Brian Atlasfake the war guys wait we have something from you the dating app thing let's pull up the dating app oh no image uh My Love Languages telling me
04:06:13Juliathe event starts 10 minutes earlier than it actually does Julia facts so what what do you mean by this um I have many qu I have many
04:06:24Juliastrengths but one of them that one of my maybe areas of improvement would
04:06:33Juliabe like I I'm a horrible judge of how long it takes to do things which might might account for the 4our uh orgasm I'm
04:06:43Juliajust I'm I just I'll think something will take me like um 15 minutes and it takes me 2 hours and so you're late is what you're saying men can be late I would say more generally it's like I
04:06:55Julialiterally suck at judging how long things take but that sometimes can result in me being late which I'm sure you're going to say is a huge con I mean
04:07:04Juliabut you're a grown adult time management is like basic adulting exactly so I've learned to get through it but I'm just saying if you really love me the best thing you can do for me is like tell me
04:07:16Julialike just say like hey it starts 15 minutes early no the the best thing that a partner could do for you is be on time is is tell you you're an adult get your [ __ ]
04:07:27Brian Atlastogether if you're I'm going to tell you to be on time be here at this time you should be there on time you're an adult you have agency I know I made it here on
04:07:37Juliatime I'm sure but it seems on time but are you talking just within your romantic well it's more Brian it's more
04:07:47Juliathat there's like this I I get places on time but because of that misjudgment I'm like rushing a little and it's a little stressful so it would be like I would be less stressed if I actually if I had an
04:08:00Courtney Ferrisadditional 15 minutes that I didn't know I had you know what I mean so that's why I say it's just tongue and cheek it's not even that hard to do really ask your partner 15 minutes it's just cute ask
04:08:12Juliafor those of us who are gifted with time management who in my opinion are literally the superheroes of the world you know be friendly to is that is that really some person sounds like me
04:08:24Brian Atlashaving to deal with a toddler does it oh yeah like okay here let me let me accommodate your your lack
04:08:35Brian Atlasof what's the right word you're asking someone to accommodate your lack of I guess courtesy when it comes to timeliness by having to
04:08:47Juliaconstantly tell someone to meet you earlier than the actual plan is I don't know yeah I suppose if you want to read it the worst possible way you can read it that's what you would get so okay
04:08:58Brian Atlasthanks but it's I don't think it's like no guys like cuz this is on your dating app profile right like don't on the dating app don't you want to like put your best foot forward and like try to paint yourself in like a good way and
04:09:11Juliayou basically saying by the way I'm going to I'm not punctual I is that cute first of all it gets a lot it gets a lot of obviously it's not cute to you um it gets a lot of
04:09:23Brian Atlasresponses a lot of guys tolerate a lot of [ __ ] when it comes to dating but yeah lack of punctuality and disrespecting my time yeah that's I think that's not a good thing okay well you want to hear the things I bring to
04:09:35Juliathe table because just because I might like that's great struggle slightly with that that doesn't negate all these other like great qualities that I offer and I think being honest about something
04:09:45Juliathat's like a legitimate I mean that you're legit not naturally good at like time management is a thing that people are naturally good at like I have a great job I've got two degrees like do you think if I'm
04:09:58Brian Atlasreally that bad at time management and that discourteous that people would that like I don't can't tell time of course I can but so I I mean are you joking about the fact that you're late because either
04:10:09Juliayou're you're punctual or you're not punctual or I'm joking and as it relates to I absolutely do not expect my partner
04:10:17Brian Atlasto carry me around like as a toddler as you so endearingly said um absolutely if I say something if I need you ready at 5:00 p.m. I'm to me that's like
04:10:29Brian Atlasinfantilizing you that I need to tell you in each instance oh 4:45 instead of 5:00 p.m. how about you just be on time guess what no one has ever taken me up we already like an old married couple
04:10:42Juliawe're already bickering about okay go ahead no well no cuz you would refuse anyways refuse what you would refuse to tell me that the you would you would say I'm an infant and then we'd be late cuz we'd probably get to Big discussion
04:10:54Brian Atlasabout it no it's that deep so wait you think this this would this this is my bad this would fall on me if if I was like no I'm not going to play your
04:11:04Brian Atlaslittle game of me having to tell you to get be ready by an earlier time because you're you lack the adult functioning to be ready on
04:11:14Brian Atlastime sorry I just really don't think anybody reads into it as much as you are right now but but well I can say from my experience when it comes to First Dates I'm on time and I'd say 80% of the time
04:11:27Brian Atlaswith First Dates women are at least 10 to 15 minutes late so for you guys you don't care because men will tolerate your tardiness but for me I think it's disrespectful to be late on a first date because that's a first impression and
04:11:40Brian Atlasyou're already late okay well that's just your type of women not women I always try to be punctual for dates I think it's rude to be 15 minutes late to a first date especially if you don't let the person know that you're going to be
04:11:52Brian Atlaslate oh especially you offer up an apology but I get it most and hey that's another thing that's wrong with Society people don't stick to their commitments if I say like I don't know
04:12:04Brian Atlasso are you think you would swipe left on me you saw that that would be a little like all my I get that you're trying to be cutesy
04:12:15Brian Atlasbut like I don't know I don't think it's like oh haha my life is just so like I'm so I'm in the I'm in the clouds my life's a mess haha it's so cute no I'd be like okay I told you I'm an
04:12:27Brian Atlasauthoritarian single you think that's why I'm still single that one no I don't think that's I don't think that's why you're single um that's probably very low on the totem pole of things that men care about but for me punctuality is
04:12:40Juliaimportant with a girl I know guess who else cares about that my job my boss and I'm not able to I know I know guys don't care about jobs but I I am obviously
04:12:51Juliaable to be punctual in my entire life okay but if you want to know what comes naturally time management doesn't so you should see how many alarms I set in the morning I literally I have like aund
04:13:02Brian Atlasalarms it's better to have a partner that understands you what you need I'm pretty on time judge you for it no it's better to just level up in all the ways that you can well if I did I would be perfect and that would be intimidating
04:13:13Brian Atlasfor too many people being being punctual doesn't mean that you can't have other flaws and other Realms and dimensions but I think just it's basic adulting I don't I don't want to have to in the
04:13:26Brian Atlassame way that a lot of you hear from a lot of women oh I don't want to have to like mother a guy I don't want to have to like be his mom I see so for me you want you want men that are self
04:13:38Brian Atlasself-sufficient we don't want to have to baby you okay babe I'm going to lie and tell you something starts 15 minutes before it actually does so you're on time how about you just if I tell you
04:13:49Brian Atlasplans at 5: or we have to leave at 5:00 p.m. be ready to leave at 5:00 p.m. simple yeah don't make me have to every time we have a plan be ready at 4:45 I'm
04:14:01TTS Readernot making you Bender the offender donated $99 if I leave for work at 59 and my [ __ ] starts at 2:00 I don't call my work
04:14:11TTS Readerand say hey I need like 30 minutes extra okay thank you just have some common sense and be more mindful of other people's time you know if we were on Tik Tok
04:14:23Juliathere's a there's a thing that they call a gosh what is it it's like you have to do you will you take accountability for they they they say it's like a disability they'll say will you be
04:14:34Brian Atlasaccountable for my um time management issues or something there's a video it's wild but word here we're going to move on from that we had a chat and I forgot to get back to this and we get we'll get
04:14:45Brian Atlasinto a couple of your things we had the chat from Seven Deadly Sims about the the whole feminist thing um you guys considered some of you consider yourselves feminist you said that inequalities and then there you're
04:14:58Brian Atlasfeminist because there's inequalities between men and women you said that uh you're a feminist because women are discriminated against um so to hear from you first what are some of the
04:15:09Parisainequalities that you're talking about I think uh a lot of the inequalities today I mean we can look at something more recent like for example like roie Wade being overturned like women now don't
04:15:21Parisaeven have the right to control what they do with their own body and the government is telling them but like something like that would never be instilled for like a man or like you can look at the pay Gap like there's a very
04:15:32Parisaobvious pay Gap a woman and a man can do the same job and like most times a man is going to be paid a lot better like there's just still a lot of inequalities
04:15:42Brian Atlasand I think that feminism aims to uh like get rid of these things so that's why i' consider myself feminist I mean the so okay there's a couple things
04:15:52Parisathere the wage gap's been debunked there is not there's no wage Gap I mean I would say that there is still like commonly like you would see like Studies have shown that there is a wage Gap in a
04:16:04Parisalot of job is that what your liberal professors tell you at barbar City College um I've just seen things like rhetoric and literature that has proven that point if you've seen other probably conducted by feminists that are trying
04:16:16Brian Atlasto they've already arrived at their conclusion I mean what would you say about Roby way then that I'll adjust that well you you said that you're feminist because of inequality between men and
04:16:28Brian Atlaswomen now I don't really want to get into a discussion about abortion but what I would say is is that the abortion discussion has very
04:16:38Brian Atlaslittle to do with equality between men and women because men don't have an abortion right men don't have Reproductive Rights so you you could
04:16:49Brian Atlasactually argue because men don't have I mean this is getting a little bit very specific but I could make the argument
04:16:59Brian Atlasthat equality between men and women on the abortion topic would be women in no women in the United States can get an abortion that would make it equal
04:17:11Brian Atlasbetween men and women because a man has no Reproductive Rights when it comes to abortion I'm not I'm not really interested in having an abortion debate
04:17:22Brian Atlasright now especially because it's n it's we don't have much time left but I don't think the abortion rights thing has really anything to do with equality
04:17:33Parisabetween the Sexes well I understand what you're saying in the sense that like men do not have like the whole like Reproductive Rights thing but I'm just saying equality in the sense of like um having an equal right to control what
04:17:46Parisayou do with your body having an equal right that the law is not telling you what you can and cannot do um I just think well oh well come to think of it
04:17:55Brian Atlasactually um it's it's difficult because obviously men don't get pregnant so you know it's just like a biological reality
04:18:03Brian Atlaswhat I will tell you though is when it comes to the government and your body um so this right here Nick if you can
04:18:14Brian Atlasswitch it to this camera this is a draft registration card uh now don't mind the colors the bright colors right if I skip
04:18:24Brian Atlasto this page here so this is a draft registration card that only men in this country have to sign it's called the I don't know if you're familiar with the Selective Service System so when it comes to men having control of their
04:18:36Brian Atlasbodies in the event of a war bear in mind we uh what's going on in Ukraine bear in mind what's going on in in the Middle East right now uh this idea that
04:18:47Brian Atlasmen have control of their bodies it's actually not entirely true in the event of a draft men would be forced to go into the trenches into the front lines and they wouldn't have a choice when it
04:18:59Brian Atlascomes to that now you don't see feminists in the streets really advocating for an equalization of the draft or getting rid of the selective service system or getting rid of male military conscription and I think that
04:19:12Parisathat is a problem with a lot of like modern day feminism is that it doesn't focus on equalizing things and it has I I'd say I have seen a shift especially on like social media where feminism has
04:19:24Parisaturned into kind of like I don't know more so elevating one gender over the other or like trying to like point out differences but I think that it is
04:19:35Parisaimportant for feminism to also focus on like these these differences or like these problems that occur for men too I would not say that that is something that it should not tackle right sure
04:19:50Brian Atlasum I guess I'm just again I'm it's I it's not going to be productive to have a conversation on abortion but um again I've just failed
04:20:01Brian Atlasto see when it comes to INE inequality so typically when you think of inequality it would be something like some right or privilege that men have
04:20:12Brian Atlasthat women don't but because men don't have any abortion rights because they can't have children I don't think it's an it's a woman's rights issue but I don't think
04:20:24Parisait's a inequality issue I I just personally see it as that because I see it as an unequal sense of control over your body
04:20:36Parisabecause although like the wraft like you bring that up which is is a great point and I do think that that is a like that does need to be addressed I think that this the lack of control that not
04:20:47Parisaallowing abortion gives to woman is very very different than that because like in the event of a war like that's a lot less likely than like a woman needing an abortion for like any reason I think
04:20:59Parisathat there like the case of a woman needing an abortion is a lot more like common just well for for like right now I mean like if you count like what's going on in Ukraine obviously but like
04:21:11ParisaI'm just saying it's not it's not like every single year that there's a new war happening I mean we are I would argue that Europe's been at War for years but there hasn't been a draft in 50 years
04:21:23Brian Atlasthere's no okay but there are men that would in the Vietnam War there are men that would still be I see Madison there are men that would still be alive today had they not been drafted there are men
04:21:36Brian Atlasthat are um there are men excuse me there are men that that died that would still be alive today had they not been drafted there
04:21:45Brian Atlasare men that are alive today that were drafted that are dealing with severe like either they they were casualty of War so they had an
04:21:55Siennainjury um PTSD um don't you think um women get PTSD from having a baby they don't want to have Yeah but
04:22:05Brian AtlasI are you really comparing getting an abortion to the PTSD that soldiers experience in from war well you're comparing an abortion to
04:22:17Brian Atlasthe draft I would I would argue that throughout human history male military conscription is a is a bigger gender grievance than certainly AB the abortion
04:22:28Stevegrievance since the beginning of time it has always been men go to war women stay home and take care of the family and kids yeah it's bad say we're not saying it's not bad but
04:22:38Brian Atlasit's not like it's not the same so are you saying that forced male military conscription is not as bad as some women in some states bad I'm not
04:22:50Parisasaying it's not bad no but that's she saying that it's not necessarily comparable which I do kind of see because it's like it's not necessarily talking about like the same type of like
04:23:01Parisaright to do something because one of them is saying like in the event that like there is a war like men will be drafted which obviously is still like a lack of control but the other is saying like in your day-to-day life like you
04:23:13Parisawill not have the ability to do this like because like we're not giving you the right like it's it's different I see what you're saying well what I would say is while currently here in the United
04:23:24Brian AtlasStates there hasn't been a draft in a long time every single male in this country once they turn 18 they have to register with the selective service so
04:23:33Brian Atlasthat's a that's a just a gender a biased gender requirement that men have to do that women don't granted it's rather easy to register however as a man
04:23:46Brian Atlasif you don't register technically it's a felony you can be imprisoned for up to five I I don't want to misquote it's either I it's either five or 10 years I think it's probably five years you can
04:23:55Brian Atlasget a fine of $250,000 um if you don't register for the Selective Service hold on it says it here let me read it uh I'm going to read
04:24:06Brian Atlasit just cuz I don't want to misquote anything uh okay um let's see hold on what happens if I
04:24:18Brian Atlasdon't register not registering is a felony young men convicted a failure to register may be fined up to $250,000 imprisoned for up to 5 years or both in addition to being subject to
04:24:28Brian Atlasprosecution failure to register may cause you to permanently forfeit eligibility for certain benefits Federal many state laws require regist uh registration age men to be registered
04:24:41Brian Atlaswith Selective Service to remain eligible for applying for the following benefits so as a guy if you don't register for the Selective Service it might bar you for life from receiving Student Financial Aid certain government

04:25:16TTS Readerwith so if you get pregnant they will stay around and and be good Fathers in any case I don't really want to thank you ninjas smoke for the comment um we it's kind of getting away if we get into
04:25:28Brian Atlasan abortion discussion it gets away from things but I'm trying to it stemms from the inequality discussion so
04:25:39Brian Atlasum I think you're talking you're making a bodily autonomy argument and you saying well men in the United States they it's unequal because women don't
04:25:49Brian Atlashave an abortion right and there's no coresponding there's no corresponding thing that could take away a man's bodily autonomy but that's actually quite literally not true because we have
04:26:01Brian Atlasmale only conscription in this country so if there's a draft only men would be conscripted and their bodily autonomy would quite literally be taken away from them they'd be forced to go to somewhere they don't want to go they'd be forced
04:26:15Steveto go to war they'd be forced to fight they'd potentially be forced to die I I think that that's worse than not having the right to an abortion and in
04:26:25Stevethe in the event of a draft it's not will they die people will die a lot of people die this isn't World War II this is 2023 what never it's going to be bad
04:26:38Brian Atlaswomen die during child birth though too that is true what if wait I have a I have a question sorry go ahead go ahead maybe I can't say that I I think I know
04:26:48Brian Atlaswhat you're saying yeah um okay my question to you let me ask you guys this what would your what would you say to a guy let's say there's just some [ __ ] boy out there and he was
04:27:02Brian Atlasjust he was just sleeping with a bunch of girls and he get he gets a girl pregnant and he's like oh [ __ ] man and she wants to keep the kid right what would you say to him like what what
04:27:12Brian Atlaswould you tell him like and he doesn't want to have the kid what would you tell him get ready for child support child support would you maybe would you maybe
04:27:25Brian Atlastell him hey if you didn't want to be in this situation maybe you shouldn't have had sex would you tell him
04:27:33Parisathat maybe tell him to use a condom but oh okay but what would you tell him like tough luck I don't know I feel like at that point there's not much you can do
04:27:44Parisaas the man because you're not the one like bearing the child right we have zero Reproductive Rights um uh have to agree but would you just tell tell them to suck it
04:27:55Parisaup I mean at that point it's either like you discuss it with the girl and you try and like come to an agreement I don't know or like you can't do she wants to she wants to keep the kid and she's going to come after she's definitely
04:28:07Brian Atlasgoing to come after you for child support what do you tell the guy I mean there's nothing he can do then you tell him what do you tell him though there's nothing you can do like you have to pay the child support tough luck right you
04:28:19Parisashouldn't have done that right see we only hold men accountable for their bad decisions but I wouldn't say you shouldn't have done that though I just say like that is the result of an action
04:28:31Parisathat like was taken I don't think that the same thing can be right so men have no reprodu Ive rights so there is no inequality I'm not I mean it's not necessarily like I don't think like that
04:28:42Parisaplays into it in the way that like you're seeing it play into it cuz I don't think that like it has anything to do with the fact that like just because I don't know I just don't think that
04:28:53Brian Atlassituation holds relevance to like but I guess what it's what's interesting is when for example if a woman wanted to get an abortion and if we were to tell that woman you should have just kept
04:29:05Brian Atlasyour legs closed a lot of people would be very offended by that comment and say well women should still have an option and whereas if a man gets a girl
04:29:16Brian Atlaspregnant suck it up tough enjoy 18 years of child support you have no say as a guy you have you have no option he may not have a say but like how many deadbeat fathers are out there that like
04:29:29Brian Atlasdon't pay their child support don't show up for their child or their baby mama yeah and then if they if they don't pay their child support they they get thrown in prison actually the we we abolished debtor prisons hundreds of years ago
04:29:41Brian Atlasbecause we realized that putting people in prison for debt for not paying fines or for debt is uh I don't know is bad
04:29:52Brian Atlasbut the only thing the only the only way that you can go to jail for not paying a fine or not paying a debt is through child support that's so basically men are
04:30:04Juliaexposable men are viewed we are the wage slaves of society that's it but do you think there could be anything to do with the fact I mean so you've made this point before that men can impregnate multiple women
04:30:16Juliaand women can only get pregnant pregnant by once every six once every nine months so do you think that could have a reason why there's no like if there was legislation that gave men more rights
04:30:28Juliathe fact that they're able to exercise that more like it just could get more complicated I'm just curious wait um I I don't know what it would look like but
04:30:39JuliaI'm just I just I wonder if there's that could play into why women are granted more rights legally in this sense and if it has to do with the fact
04:30:50Juliathat men can get more women pregnant like like it just seems like it would be a nightmare whereas a woman can only get pregnant by one guy at one time and then it's for 9 months or I guess she could
04:31:01Brian Atlasabort it and then do you know what I'm saying like no but she saying that there's that there's a bunch of even though like if uh a guy gets a girl pregnant there are
04:31:13Brian Atlasa lot of guys that aren't going to pay child support they're going to be dead beat dads right um and um sorry it's getting late my
04:31:25Brian Atlasbrain fuel is running out um but my counter to that is well there are consequences as a guy if you are a dead beat dad and if the woman wants to pursue it you're you can get thrown in
04:31:37Brian Atlasif you don't pay child support that you can go to jail for that yeah so and again we we abolished debtor prisons long long time ago but the only
04:31:49Brian Atlasthe only thing where you can still go to prison for not paying some sort of fine or something is when it comes to child support and that typically that's like
04:31:58Brian Atlas97% n it's over 90% of child support goes from men to women so but it's interesting when when men don't want to
04:32:08Brian Atlasstep up to the plate when men don't want to be fathers when men aren't in a financial position or don't want to financially contribute they're called
04:32:17Brian Atlasdeadbeat dads but when women want to get abortions that like you go that is that's really interesting against the man's wishes cuz that happens the women
04:32:29Brian Atlasare called empowered no but men are called Dead beats and but so men always have to have accountability but women you have you have an out just get an abortion you're
04:32:43Julianot C if you're a woman who gets why don't we allow abortions why don't we allow it then if it's we do we do allow AB didn't it just made it a state issue
04:32:52Juliawhich is you could say imagine if the draft was def federalized so it became a state's issue and certain States could choose if they have a draft or not then it would be more comparable comparison
04:33:04Brian Atlasbut I would say like both not to get into politics but like both people on the left and the right politically would say that a guy who's like not paying child supporter isn't in his in that kid's life is a Deb
04:33:17Brian Atlasfather and certainly like people if you're Republican or conservative you're obviously very critical of abortion however uh like it's interesting that
04:33:29Brian Atlasthere's only there's this pressure on men on both sides if you're a dead beat dad because you're not you're not financially ready or you're not financially in a position to support a kid but that's a totally valid reason
04:33:41Brian Atlasfor a woman to get an abortion I just think that's interesting it is interesting it's an interesting thought um okay and then do you have any
04:33:51Brian Atlasother things when it comes to the inequality what other ways come on I know you got more P Parisa did I say sorry if I'm saying your name wrong my bad PRI is good um honestly no I just
04:34:03Parisathink it comes down to like I don't know like my stance on like the whole feminism thing is just I think that historically there have also just been a lot of issues and I think that there are
04:34:15Parisajust a lot of like remnants of issues in terms of like I don't know like the power struggle and also just like the power Dynamic and I think that what do you mean by power Dynamic I just feel
04:34:26Parisalike our society although we've come like along way there is still like a sense of like power that we give to men that like women almost cannot get or
04:34:37Parisalike there's a sense of like ease that comes with um a lot of opportunities that it just seems like men get in comparison and I just feel like I don't know it's I just feel like there's
04:34:50TTS Readerthere's things that are uneven that feminism would address such as what oh hold on sorry Bender the offender donated $99 sometimes the mother won't even see
04:35:01Brian Atlashis child and he is called a dead beat for it yeah that's messed up that's true um and then sometimes the mother will try to turn the kid against the father and I mean some of these situations can
04:35:12Brian Atlasget very messy and very toxic um you were saying power dynamics like men women give men a lot of power or
04:35:23Parisasomething no I just feel like the way that our society is placed it's just like I don't know like a lot of power is given to men and also just like what do
04:35:34Parisayou mean I mean which men are given power I mean I just feel like a lot of times I don't know just like politically speaking you can look at like a lot of like our house and like our Senate like
04:35:45Parisait's largely been mail-based and I feel like a lot of the opinions that are are are like dominating these like parts of our government are largely like male
04:35:57Parisacentered opinions and I just feel like I don't know like we've never had a female president we it's legal now like for Wom to become presidents but like we still haven't had that like the the level of
04:36:09Parisalike power that a woman has been given although it's like said to be the same it's not like in reality it's not necessarily like acted out but do you think power should be given or should
04:36:20Parisapower be something that's earned I mean I think it has been earned I just think that the way that our society is like structured it hasn't been like properly given where it has been earned I mean
04:36:31Brian AtlasHillary Clinton has been the uh has been a presidential candidate was it two two separate El against Obama
04:36:40Steveand then against Trump she was so close um she didn't win um but that's up to an election that's that's against the population voting nothing's put in place
04:36:53Brian AtlasI mean so you're you're saying that because there isn't an equal representation in some of these top positions of power that what I just think representation of is also
04:37:05Parisasomething that is very important because like what we see represented and the opinions that are shared and whether or not they are diverse has a big impact on
04:37:14Brian Atlaslike society and just how it's governed do do you think that men and women are 100% the same I mean no
04:37:25Brian Atlaslike not do you think that men and women have different um proclivities when it comes to their interests or for the types of jobs that they go into and this
04:37:37Brian Atlasis kind of related to the wage Gap a little bit like what do you mean well is it the case that that temperamentally men and women have different interests
04:37:48Courtney Ferriswhen it comes to various things but like I'm trying to think of how many women are in the oil field versus that what you're kind of getting at well a
04:38:00Brian Atlaslittle bit but um could it be the case that generally speaking like when women are less interested in pursuing a political political career than men are I honestly would not say so I I'd say
04:38:13Parisaespecially today that is not the case I just say that I if like you are for example like somebody who is a person of color and then now add on being a woman
04:38:24Parisaon top of that like your chances of gaining that um like position of power is going to be a lot lower than somebody who is like the second most powerful person in the world is a woman of color well now it is but that's because of the
04:38:36Parisafact that we were able to get a Democratic candidate in who was but does she deserve I mean like what what what the policies you love about Cala I mean personally I was not the biggest like
04:38:47ParisaBiden and Cala person I was more of like like Bernie I was on that stance but like I think many would argue that Camala was given power so I okay I I I
04:38:56Brian Atlashave a question this right sucked her power just just because there is a just because there is a discrepancy does it necessarily mean that it's due
04:39:09Parisato sexism I mean not necessarily but I think that if there was not such a historical and like current impact of sexism I think that this discrepancy
04:39:21Juliawould certainly be a lot less but I think the institutions that have we've talked about have been historically been where women have been oppressed or suppressed or whatever I
04:39:32Juliamean so education women now graduate with like strikingly at a strikingly higher rate than men do they have more degrees um they're even entering fields that have been historically dominated like male dominated such as like stem
04:39:45Juliacareers and so um women are getting more opportunities within the the job sphere to address the wage Gap in the major cities Across America if male and men
04:39:57Juliaand women for um particularly like white collar jobs are get equal pay and if not the woman gets like slightly more more so I think in a lot of ways we've addressed these issues and so the narrative that they're still unaddressed
04:40:11Juliais is cancerous to the flourishing of society because I think you need the flourishing of both sexes and obviously we're seeing a large population of men
04:40:22Juliafeeling that they're now feeling oppressed and they're feeling upset and and almost like forgotten and it's leading to in some ways a toxic culture so I think that I think that if we look
04:40:33Juliaat what women have have earned and been given I think they've exceeded that if we look at like the the job the pay Gap the the jobs the education the amount of degrees that are they're earning so they
04:40:45Juliahave achieved these things and that's great and so but now we have to go back to balance like the pendulum swung now it needs to balance out also I would
04:40:54Brian Atlasargue so the the percentage of men that have power is a very small percentage of men so this idea that all men are in
04:41:03Brian Atlaspower or all men men have power over women is fallacious so it's probably like what percentage of men are CEOs what percentage of men are in boardrooms
04:41:15Parisawhat percentage of men hold political power and I wouldn't say compar compared to the rest of men that the power is a lot easier to access and it's a lot more
04:41:26Brian AtlasI don't know I'd just say that it's easier to get to as a man I would actually argue that most even male politicians plate to the the female
04:41:35Parisavoter base but that doesn't necessarily mean that it's easier for a woman to well but that that could come down to
04:41:44Brian Atlasthe the innate differences between men and women and what what the choices that they make when it comes to what they go to uh what what they choose to study in
04:41:55Brian Atlascollege and also the career fields that they choose to go into for example there's there are more female nurses than male nurses is that evidence of a matriarchy and that women are oppressing
04:42:07Brian Atlasmen because there are more women who are nurses just because there's a discrepancy does not necessarily mean it's because there's sexism that's true but a discrepancy in power and a
04:42:17Parisadiscrepancy in what opinions are voiced and heard I would say does mean that there is a discrepancy in like that well there's a whole lot of issues that face women that get a lot of attention politically but it's not clear to me
04:42:29Brian Atlasthat there's any male Centric issues that really get much political attention at all which I think they should I don't think that just I can't think of
04:42:37Brian Atlasanything M when it comes to male male specific issues that gets attention like his podcast is apolitical right how many can I ask do you have
