And you see this in many other cultures as well.

Certain places in Europe, the men are more likely to go fishing together and go and actually plan things with one another.

It specifically feels quite United Kingdom and United States for men also to disappear their lives into their marriages.

And women are really known for preparing for their third act, whereas men don't.

Men atrophy after middle age and they allow their friendships to...

to dissipate and they're expecting, well, my wife will have friends and I'll just make friends with the husband of whichever friend of hers I get along with.

And they lose their own sense of stability and then they lose their sense of self.

No, I think men have been misguided by patriarchy to think that there is no reason to live other than you work and then you raise a family, even if you don't really spend much time raising that family.

It's just like you provide and you protect and you go out and have a job.

I don't think men have really been instilled with much meaning by patriarchy.

I don't think they've been encouraged to enjoy their lives, enjoy their friendships, indulge in pleasure.

It's all just like a quick wank on Pornhub, a quick outlet like that.

It's a quick burst of release everywhere.

They're not encouraged to really spend that much time with their kids.

that you know this idea that it's changing it is changing it's changing what it was changing and now we're swinging back to a culture where we don't want women to work and we want women back in the home and and what happens when we do that is that then the woman spends all the time with the kids and the woman grows the bond with the kids and you're the fucking guy that checks in and checks out like you're off before they wake up for school and you're they're in bed by the time you get home this is not going to work out for men the direction in which we're going um and so i do think that

I personally think, you know, just to be fully... It's all capitalism based.
