she can think what she wants of herself and her potential. we've all seen people in relationships with folks that don't look like they match physically or otherwise. this isn't a straight line.

sure, but not nearly at the same clip as women. men are not the target he went after.

I do agree that they subject themselves to it. it never makes sense for the women to appear on his show.

yup, he's about data points. who knows whether any of it is true or what his sources are. stats can paint any picture he wants.

this is also a problem. there may be truth in spots, but it mostly seems like vitriol aimed at women to further push the divide between and women.

for me, his approach is very much 'men do this and women do that'. it immediately pits the genders against each other, with the man generally having the advantage. it's a man who doesn't like women vibe. not looking for a partner, but a mom or servant instead.
