#916 - Freya India - Why Modern Women Feel More Lost Than Ever

Um, and I think there's a lot of girls now punishing themselves for being emotional and sensitive and wanting a partner and wanting to depend on someone. Because now the image of a strong independent woman is someone who doesn't depend on anyone and who doesn't get emotional, doesn't get jealous, doesn't care.

you know they never get emotional and if they do get an emotional it's trauma or an attachment issue and it's like that's a really cruel thing to teach emotional young girls and confusing because it's like of course they feel that way because they're human but now they're being told that that's yeah a medical issue or something that they should heal

Well, I think that's, again, a lack of adults stepping in. I have this theory I've been thinking about of, like, everyone just accepts now that parents are overprotective. So there's, like, the helicopter parenting and the coddling of Gen Z. Yeah. But I think like parents are weirdly, they're not protective enough, but they're also coddling.

So now it's like the only danger is like physical danger. It's injury. So parents protect from injury, but they don't protect from something like... their daughters being online and posting, trying to get on OnlyFans.
