  1. The guys who listen to toxic male influencers say they don't ask women what they want or even listen to women because "you don't ask the fish how to catch it." 🙄

  2.  @thefinancialdiet  For real. I used to waste my time responding to those videos. I'd say the male influencer was giving terrible advice to men regarding women and how we think. I'd ask why they were listening to a man talking about what women want. The men would reply that women only THINK they know what they want, but they are fooling themselves or lying. And nearly every time, I'd get "you don't ask a fish how to catch it".

  4. The easily-bruised male ego is no joke. Women have to walk on eggshells.

  5. I'm 65 and there were no wedding favors when my generation was getting married. There were no destination bachelor/bachelorette parties. There were no multi-day events - the wedding was just one day. The "must haves" for a wedding keeps getting bigger.

  6. I know what you say is very very true for the most part. However, sometimes genetics trumps wealth. I am thinking of a fairly well-known blogger in her sixties who grew up in wealth. She looks at least fifteen years older than she is, in spite of major generational wealth and living a very healthy life. A nurse thought she was her father's sister and he was in his late eighties at the time!

  7.  @AlextheENTP  As someone who was once married into a wealthy family, I can vouch for the fact that it's a delusional belief. The person who was so wealthy got there because the parents poured all their resources into them and then a series of lucky meetings and lucky breaks happened. They were also mean and selfish - nothing special at all.

  8.  @AlextheENTP  True . . . and given the history of how so many made their old money or exploited others, there's nothing necessarily honorable about being one of them.

  9. You can consider hiring a photographer just to take portraits instead of covering the whole day too.

  10.  @Mr_Boifriend  Thank you for a respectful comment!

  11.  @I_Be_Major  You and I can't have a real conversation. Your paragraph reads like you tried to include every Red Pill buzzword and concept possible. I know from experience that once a man embraces that crap, his mind is shut.

  12.  @I_Be_Major  I think a man who is trying to sell a product (his supposed wisdom about women) is trying to sell a product. It doesn't have to be accurate to sell - especially when his audience is desperate and looking for easy answers.

  13.  @Garcelle1987  And why would you want to be with a man who won't even listen to you or who thinks you don't really know what you want?

  14.  OchiengMelisizwe5  I don't live in your unhappy little world. You have trapped yourself there. As sad as that is, you are the only one who can get yourself out.

  15.  @ritasjourney  Did you read my very first sentence? :body-blue-raised-arms:

  16.  @jakeshota4050  Not really. I've seen men give out absolutely TOXIC ADVICE about women. The only women they will attract are women who are damaged in the first place. And the men don't accept it when that's pointed out.

  17.  OchiengMelisizwe5  What is YOUR proof? What is THEIR proof? None.

  18.  OchiengMelisizwe5  Then the burden of proof is on the toxic influencers who peddle stupidity about women. THEY were the ones who came up with the idea that women don't know what they really want.

  19.  @I_Be_Major  It makes "perfect sense" if you neither know nor care about what women want.

  20. @Green_Lantern89 I'd like to be a fly on the wall during those encounters. Translation: I flat out don't believe the version of the story most of those men are telling.

  21. I have said for years that money reveals who you really are. There are no barriers to keep you in line except yourself.

  22. The thing that would surprise most people is that if you go back far enough historically, it was unheard of for people to give wedding gifts. The bride, groom, and their families provided what was needed for the new household. There are actual historical accounts of brides being taken aback and confused when gift-giving first began to happen here and there.

  23.  @nurainiarsad7395  Yes, I see that too.

  24.  @vixxcelacea2778  Yes, I know.

  25.  @user-gu9yq5sj7c  Sure. But the person I originally commented about who looks very old for her age has always eaten extremely healthy and is thin and fit. Lives in California, which gives her better access than many other locations. In her case, it's just her genetics.

  26. I'm late to watching this. At first I was a little confused and then I was riveted. Great interview!!!
