So like one of my friends now, they've just found out that there's a complication with the pregnancy and the tone shifts and we all become supportive.

But my girlfriend tells me how rare that is, that we have this space where we'll talk about our emotions and how we're feeling and we'll switch from like trying to kill each other in the most like funny way to being really, really emotionally supportive. A lot of men don't have that.

What is the evolutionary basis for this? This is what I was thinking the whole time. I was like, did we lose the man's group at some point in our past? And is that why we're adding it back into our lives? Like, what used to do this job before?

I want to talk about all of this and specifically offer some solutions to the young, to the parents, to the boys, to the teens, to the men that are listening. We had a young man actually write in on this subject and he said, I've suffered with crippling loneliness and so I've spent over $1,000 hiring women online just to talk to me and to keep me company.

On top of that, I've spent several thousand dollars more engaging in other business with them. After doing this for nearly a year now, I still feel incredibly unfulfilled. And on the subject of porn, 30% of internet traffic is now related to porn, with about 80% of that porn traffic coming from men and 20% coming from women. I actually had a conversation on this podcast before about porn.

And funnily enough, the top comment was, by the way... us women, get porn addicted too. Because it was a bit of a blind spot to me, but I think that's something that's worth acknowledging. And the stats are staggering in terms of how higher porn consumption correlates to higher probabilities of depression. What do you do about it? Like on an individual level, I get it.

Try not to watch porn, but I mean, that doesn't seem like incredibly great advice because if you're lonely, you're not getting laid. No one wants to date you for all the reasons we've talked about today. Restraint seems to be a pretty shitty solution.

It's interesting because if you go on TikTok or if you go on X, you'll find a lot of videos of women filming themselves as a guy inappropriately came and made a gesture to them and then like publicly shaming them on the internet. It's very popular to do it in the gym. They set up a phone. They're working out. A guy comes over and asks if they need help with the weights.

It then goes viral online because that guy was being inappropriate.

Can I just say something to that? If the guy rolls up and he's 6'4", and he's, you know, gorgeous...
