If he hasn't healed... then don't. Because the truth is, man, you're not wrong for wanting to party in your 20s. And here's the truth. Can we at least be honest for once with people? If a woman wants to party in her 20s, let her party. If a man wants to party in his 30s when he first got his money, let him party.
Let's stop shaming people who have worked their life for what they want, who are enjoying their life. And then when that person is ready to settle down, they're going to meet the right person for them. I think the problem is most people want to put a wide net around our entire species. All men act like this because the men that I dated act like that. No, that's just the men you choose.
All bitches ain't shit. No, that's just the women you choose, my G. If we start to realize that, we'll, you know what I'm saying? We'll be like, we'll give each other a little bit more grace.
Yeah, I get it.
I mean, I don't blame women for not wanting to be married in their 20s, bro. Like, we live in a capitalist society where misogyny rules.
If you are a beautiful woman and you're getting attention from a bunch of dudes, enjoy yourself.
Like, enjoy yourself. Now, of course, everyone is going to say, well, you need to settle down and not be promiscuous and stuff. But let's be honest. Monogamy, much like veganism or Christianity, is a choice. Someone has to choose to want to be that. And someone has to want to be that in order to enjoy that aspect of life.
I think it's a disservice to people when we try to cast a wide net over everybody. Like, everybody got to be monogamous. Everybody got to be Christian. Everybody... Like, we got to stop doing that. Because we're all different people.
But what you just said makes all the sense in the world, though. Think about it. I know who I am.
I'm not going to define my existence on this planet based on what all the other women in the world are doing.
That's not even your plight to carry. You know what I'm saying? For me, it's like, whoa, okay, Lex wants to get married now. I'm in my 30s. I'm going to be deliberate about finding the right person now. Listening to the statistics and all of that shit don't really even matter.
Because none of that... will ever fit to every man or woman in the world. I say that because monogamy works for me.
But then when men ask me, like, yo, dude, man, how you do this, how you do that? The first thing I ask them, do you want to be monogamous? Or do you think that being monogamous is the only way that you can be considered high-functioning? And they're just like... When I'm listening to these podcasts and they say monogamous men are high functioning.
And I said, bro, stop just listening to people and ask yourself what you really want out of life. You know what I'm saying? Like, we got to stop shaming people for not following the lifestyle we follow.
Monogamy works for me because DeVal knows that, you know what? I love women. Like, a lot. I do truly love women.
First thing I do, I look at you and I'm like, she's gorgeous. But I also know that if I'm not disciplined enough to control my urges and I'm attacking it, running after every woman, I don't have the ability to focus on the things that's going to help me provide for myself and my family. So monogamy works for me.
There are some men who can balance both and can chase skirts and chase money and make it. I would never tell that brother, you got to be monogamy or you're not high functioning. Man, get the fuck out of here. For example, like a 50 Cent or Floyd Mayweather. Both them brothers is doing way better than I am.
How I look telling them, well, you better be monogamous or you ain't going to make it in life. It's the same thing for women. We should never tell women, well, you better get married or you ain't going to make it in life. Oprah ain't never been married. She's one of the richest people in America.
I love it, Ty.
Thank you so much.
