Description

Louise Perry is a writer, Press Officer for the campaign group We Can’t Consent To This and an author. For generations, traditional gender roles have shaped society. Today, however, quality of life, mood, relationships, marriage, and even careers feel increasingly out of sync. How much of this can be attributed to shifting gender roles? And could embracing more traditional roles lead to a happier, more fulfilling, and sexually vibrant society? Expect to learn what the myth of female agency is, why Gen Z has an increasing problem of sexlessness, how social media is impacting relationship building in real life, why it seems right wing or fascist to bring up declining birth rates, why the marriage rate in young people is plummeting, how much gender neutrality there can be in parenting, how relations between men and women changed since Louise wrote the case against the sexual revolution. and much more… - 00:00 Are We in a Post-OnlyFans Society? 05:55 The Conversation Around Bonnie Blue & Lily Phillips 08:27 Why Humans Desire Agency 19:52 Why OnlyFans Isn’t a Good Career Choice 23:14 The Hollowness of OnlyFans Wealth 32:19 What is Causing the Decline of Marriage? 46:22 The Politicisation of Birth Rates 58:13 Consequences of Changing Population Trends 1:03:00 The Mimetic Desire to Be a Parent 1:07:15 What Louise Has Learned From Motherhood 1:12:17 Gender Neutrality in Parenting 1:16:26 The Romanticisation of Trad Living 1:26:24 Where to Find Louise - Get access to every episode 10 hours before YouTube by subscribing for free on Spotify - https://spoti.fi/2LSimPn or Apple Podcasts - https://apple.co/2MNqIgw Get my free Reading List of 100 life-changing books here - https://chriswillx.com/books/ Try my productivity energy drink Neutonic here - https://neutonic.com/modernwisdom - Get in touch in the comments below or head to...

It seems a pity that Louise Perry gets invited on far more podcasts with audiences that are 90% male than on female podcasts with large audiences

In minute 40:15 - 40:33 Louise Perry describes the concept of hypergamy, where women refuse to date, much less marry men, who earn less than them. This becomes a problem in the modern world because young women are increasingly earning more than young men. This is happening so often it is becoming the norm. It brings up an interesting double standard. Men are told that it is sexist to think, in the modern world, that a woman's defining characteristic is to be homemakers. This mindset is in fact demonized as sexist and an archaic view of a bygone era that should be abandoned. Yet, women still harbor the idea that men should have higher incomes than they do. Why aren't women told to abandon this as a sexist and outmoded way of thinking? If the economic landscape has change to where it is incumbent of men to change their expectations towards women, shouldn't women be implored to change their expectations of men equally?

It’s almost like all of those tried and tested traditional values we threw away were there for a reason…

I knew Louise would notice that school was terrible for boys and needs reform as soon as she had a boy in school.

I agree with the age of marriage thing. As weird as concept as it is, the younger you get married, the more flexible you are. You are much more willing to compromise with another person, develope habits with another person, develop a lifestyle and hobbies with another person, make friends together, etc. when you wait too long to get married or to get into a long-term committed relationship, you’ve already had so much time in your life to develop a lifestyle and habits and likes and dislikes and priorities and values and principles… When you’re young, you’re looking for someone to build a life alongside, but when you’re older, you’re looking for someone who fits perfectly into the life you’ve already built. And that’s much harder, depending on how picky you are. Completely ignoring the fact that the longer you wait to get married, the harder it may be to have children… the longer you wait to get married, the less open, you are to people who might have made you very happy. I met my husband when I was 23 and I’m so glad I did. We’ve built a life TOGETHER from scratch. He’s compromised, I’ve compromised. I’ve been more open to things i ultimately liked, and so has he. That’s easier when you’re young.

One of the sweetest moments in my life was having my nephew greet me at the truck I came over in. All he did was point to me and say 'He's really here!'.

“Set women up.” Bless their hearts, they have no choice. They were set up by society. No accountability. SMH.
