A lot of people like H. Pearl
0:02
Davis or Pearl as she's not online
0:04
because she poses feminism, but in the
0:06
past few weeks her behavior in interviews
0:08
has shown she doesn't hate feminism. Pearl.
0:11
Just hates women. She believes early
0:13
she gives the impression she believes
0:15
that women are always inferior to
0:18
men, and women are uniquely the
0:20
source of society's problems. I'm going
0:22
to start with the most blatant
0:24
and possibly blasphemous example of this
0:26
involving what Pearl said about the
0:28
Blessed Virgin Mary by. I've. Recently
0:30
started ring considering catholicism
0:33
and the reason being.
0:37
Is that? And. I'd like to
0:39
say this is not definitive. I don't.
0:42
I've noticed patterns. In
0:45
society and in history. And one
0:47
pattern I've noticed is that. We.
0:50
Tend to elevate women higher than
0:52
they should be and say they're
0:54
or special an awesome them when
0:57
they are. And recently I've had
0:59
the thought wondering if the Catholic
1:01
Church did that with Mary? By.
1:07
I. Am not sure. So.
1:10
As. I still go to Catholic church now, but
1:12
it's kind of. I can't really
1:14
get that thought out of my mind recently. Wow.
1:18
You. Have to have a really
1:20
deep. Contempt for women. If
1:22
you can't praise Mary as the
1:24
most honored of God's creatures, Because
1:26
Mary as a woman. that's as
1:28
vital as saying you can't be
1:30
Christian because Jesus is ethnically Jewish,
1:32
and you don't want to praise
1:34
somebody who's Jewish. God's grace is
1:36
given freely to all. Which means
1:39
the social categories of this world
1:41
do not change the dignity of
1:43
those who dwell on the body
1:45
of Christ. That's why St. Paul
1:47
said English and three Twenty eight.
1:49
For in Christ Jesus, you. Are
1:51
all sons of God through faith. For
1:53
as many of you as were baptized
1:55
into Christ have put on Christ. There
1:58
is neither June or Greek. There
2:00
is neither slave nor free. There
2:02
is neither male nor female for
2:04
you are all one in Christ
2:06
Jesus Pearl also doubled down
2:08
on her claims about women's inferiority by
2:11
telling the daily wires andrew clavin that
2:13
men are better than women at literally
2:15
everything You started that you started out
2:17
kind of saying men do everything better
2:19
than women and no, I do think
2:22
that Yes, but but I
2:24
mean that that go That
2:26
that's just not true in my experience. I mean
2:28
which is same one thing What's that?
2:30
They they make they make homes and they
2:32
raise children and they mother they mother children
2:35
better than men Well, then why why
2:37
don't single mother home? They're better than single
2:39
father home Well,
2:41
it depends because if you if you are missing
2:43
their father and you were a boy You're
2:46
missing an essential element to your manhood
2:49
And I don't think women are
2:51
also more likely to abuse children, but women
2:53
are around children so much more
2:57
But it's funny It's funny because
2:59
whenever I say anything that makes women look bad
3:02
The gut reaction is always to offer
3:04
an excuse first. There are some
3:06
things women are better than men
3:08
at for example Women are better
3:10
at remembering words and verbal information
3:12
specifically what someone said in a
3:14
conversation This happens all the time
3:16
to me. I'll come home after seeing a friend
3:18
and my wife will ask me What'd you guys
3:20
talk about? I'll give a general answer, but i'll
3:23
struggle to remember All of
3:25
the specific subjects we discussed whereas when
3:27
my wife comes home from hanging out
3:29
with friends She perfectly remembers each of
3:31
the topics that were discussed Also
3:33
women are better than men at
3:35
not committing violent crimes Since 80
3:38
of those arrested for committing violent crimes
3:40
are men when pearl refuses to say
3:43
women are better than men at anything
3:46
She's acting just like a radical feminist
3:48
who refuses to say men are better
3:50
than women at at least some things
3:52
You know whatever comes to mind things, men
3:55
are naturally better at than women Um,
4:08
I mean surely it must be something some men are just having to
4:10
act for. I
4:16
don't know, that's the hard one. Both
4:19
views are equally erroneous. Men
4:21
and women have different strengths and
4:23
weaknesses, which is why God made
4:25
men and women complementary with one
4:27
another, to help one another. And
4:29
you can really help me by clicking that subscribe button
4:31
by the way. Second, pearls
4:34
claim that women abuse children more
4:36
than men stems from a failure
4:38
to understand per capita rates versus
4:41
overall rates of abuse. A point
4:43
Clavin perfectly zeroed in on and
4:45
Pearl hand waved away as an excuse.
4:48
There are about 450,000 perpetrators of child abuse
4:51
in the US each year and 233,000 of
4:53
them are
4:55
women, about 52%. So
4:58
even from an absolute numbers perspective,
5:00
women are only barely more likely
5:02
to abuse children. So
5:04
to simply say they are more likely
5:06
to abuse children is grossly misleading. However,
5:09
as Clavin noted, women are around
5:11
children much more. So it's
5:13
not surprising there will be higher numbers
5:16
of female abusers. 69%
5:18
of children live in a two parent home and
5:20
women are four times more likely to be raising
5:22
children at home than men. 23% of children live
5:24
with a single mother and only 4% live with
5:26
a single father. So
5:31
men only make up a small
5:33
fraction of childcare providers, but
5:35
they commit nearly half of all child
5:38
abuse, which refutes pearls claim that men
5:40
are somehow a safer bet to be
5:42
around children than women. In fact, children
5:44
whose mothers have live in boyfriends are
5:47
20 times more likely to be abused,
5:49
but no similar statistics exist on abuse
5:51
rates from a father's living girlfriend. The
5:53
reason children tend to do better with
5:56
single fathers as opposed to single mothers
5:58
is that single fathers tend to make
6:00
more money and have more economic stability,
6:02
which leads to less stress in the
6:04
household. But when these economic factors are
6:06
controlled for, the outcome between the two
6:08
groups tends to be equal. Are
6:11
there many cases of women abusing children?
6:13
Yes. But using examples of
6:16
some bad women to say all
6:18
women are bad is the classic
6:20
way bigots argue. It's the same
6:22
as saying some minorities are bad,
6:24
therefore all minorities are bad. Or as
6:26
some radical feminists claim, some men
6:28
are bad, therefore all men are
6:30
bad. It's the same bad argument.
6:32
I do want to head off
6:34
a possible objection. Some people may
6:36
say that Pearl is just being
6:38
a faithful Catholic because St. Thomas
6:40
Aquinas allegedly said the female is,
6:42
as it were, a defective male.
6:45
Even if Aquinas meant this in
6:47
a universal sense, that doesn't matter
6:49
because not everything a saint said,
6:51
even one as eminent as Aquinas,
6:53
is infallible. But Aquinas was not
6:55
talking about women in general when he said
6:58
that. Aquinas' knowledge
7:00
of biology was incomplete and inherited
7:02
from the Greek philosopher Aristotle, who
7:04
he held in high esteem. For
7:07
example, Aquinas believed that insolment took
7:09
place weeks after conception because he
7:11
believed, following Aristotle, that the humanity
7:14
of a child in the womb
7:16
is actualized later, after
7:18
the fetus goes through the vegetative
7:20
and animal stages of development. The
7:23
Catholic philosopher William May says, St.
7:25
Thomas, were he alive today
7:27
and cognizant of the biological evidence
7:30
known today, would not hesitate in
7:32
concluding that the body that comes
7:35
to be when fertilization is completed
7:37
is indubitably a human body, and
7:39
hence that its organizing and vivifying
7:42
principle can only be a human
7:44
soul, an intellectual or spiritual soul.
7:47
Likewise, Aquinas had an incorrect view
7:49
of female development because he had
7:51
an incorrect view of human biology.
7:54
Aquinas thought that in human reproduction,
7:56
the semen contributed the majority of
7:58
the reproductive power. and the
8:01
woman's menstrual blood only contributed a small
8:03
amount to reproduction. The role
8:05
of the human sperm and the human
8:07
egg would not be known for hundreds
8:09
of years after Aquinas' time. So Aquinas
8:12
thought following Aristotle that the semen tried
8:14
to dominate the menstrual blood and create
8:16
a male like itself, but half the
8:18
time the semen was too weak to
8:21
do this and the menstrual blood won
8:23
out causing a female to be developed.
8:26
So when he says the female is as
8:28
it were a defective male as some translations
8:30
render it, he does not mean
8:32
females are generally defective. He can't
8:35
mean that since God directly made
8:37
Eve and God doesn't make defective
8:39
things. Concerning the Blessed Virgin Mary,
8:42
St. Thomas Aquinas said angels did
8:44
not reverence men until Gabriel's announcement
8:46
to Mary. He writes, it
8:49
was not fitting that the angels should show
8:51
reverence to man until someone
8:53
should be found in human nature
8:55
who exceeded the angels and this
8:57
was the Blessed Virgin. You
8:59
can see what Aquinas meant and its origin
9:02
in mistaken biology in this part of the
9:04
Summa Theologia. As regards
9:06
the individual nature, woman is
9:08
defective and misbegotten for the active
9:10
force in the male seed tends to the
9:13
production of a perfect likeness in the masculine
9:15
sex while the production of
9:17
woman comes from defect in the active
9:19
force or from some material in disposition
9:22
or even from some external influence such
9:24
as that of a south wind which
9:26
is moist as the philosopher observes. On
9:29
the other hand, as regards human
9:31
nature in general, woman is not
9:33
misbegotten but is included in nature's
9:36
intention as directed to the work
9:38
of generation. Now the general Intention
9:40
of nature depends on God who
9:42
is the universal author of nature.
9:45
Therefore, in producing nature God formed
9:47
not only the male but also
9:50
the female. So Aquinas was wrong
9:52
about human development, but nobody's perfect
9:54
and Aquinas did hold to views
9:57
of women that are probably more
9:59
culturally. This and then universally
10:01
true or backed up by empirical
10:03
evidence. And when we look at
10:05
the empirical evidence by the way,
10:08
this is another example of how
10:10
Pearl shows her unique contempt for
10:12
women. She looks at the evidence
10:14
for different bad things but only
10:16
applies at evidence to women. For
10:19
example, recently on the Michael Moore
10:21
show, Pearl criticize women for being
10:23
overweight and saying this is a
10:25
reason that guys shouldn't marry women
10:27
are with greatly restrict divorce dad.
10:30
Yeah, but. I think until you do that,
10:32
you're going to have a hard time getting
10:34
men to sign up. You know, and how
10:36
women getting say shell as seventy percent of
10:38
women are overweight, the sun, a great salads
10:40
and that rocket so that you know, eighty
10:42
percent of women gained twenty pounds and the
10:45
first five years of marriage. I. Don't
10:47
know where Pearl gets or statistics
10:49
from, but the obesity epidemic is
10:51
not unique to women. Lots.
10:53
Of men are also overweight. According
10:55
to National Institute for Health, men
10:58
are more likely to be overweight
11:00
or obese than women and women
11:02
are more likely to be severely
11:04
obese. And men, although I'm skeptical
11:06
of it, says eighty one percent
11:08
of women and eighty four percent
11:10
of men are overweight. This might
11:12
be using flawed measurements based on
11:14
Body Mass Index Serbia my. But
11:16
the point is that obesity is
11:19
not a uniquely Cel problem at
11:21
least in America or the West.
11:23
Studies show that in developed countries,
11:25
men are more likely to be
11:28
overweight than women. Whereas. In
11:30
poor or undeveloped countries, women are the
11:32
ones were more likely to be overweight.
11:34
As for the gaining Weight study that
11:37
I think Pearl is alluding to, Yes,
11:39
women do gain weight at the beginning
11:41
of marriage, especially say. You. Know
11:43
how babies. And. men gain
11:45
weight after they get divorced but
11:48
the results in that study were
11:50
primarily for people who marry or
11:52
divorce in their thirties which would
11:54
be an argument for earlier marriage
11:56
also if anything this would show
11:58
that marriage hell men at
12:01
the expense of women, but
12:03
only a radical feminist would
12:05
phrase it so crudely. Just
12:07
as a misogynistic red pillar
12:09
might say that marriage helps
12:11
women at the expense of
12:13
men, both are wrong. Marriage
12:15
overall is good for men
12:17
and women because, shocker, God
12:20
made marriage for humans to
12:22
thrive and flourish. St.
12:24
Paul does desire that everyone be celibate
12:26
like him to glorify God, but he
12:28
also affirms the goodness of marriage and
12:30
he encourages it. Finally,
12:32
Pearl causes the most harm when
12:34
she peddles a hopeless mentality about
12:36
women. The idea that women
12:38
are all basically untrustworthy and men should
12:40
not waste their time marrying them. Although
12:43
this is inconsistent with her claim that women
12:45
should not be feminists, but they should be
12:47
married and at home, which is something Pearl
12:49
has not done yet. Here's
12:52
Pearl telling Michael Knowles that paternity
12:54
tests should be mandatory at birth
12:56
to expose when women lie about
12:58
cheating and who the father of
13:00
the child is. And I
13:02
love Michael's response. There should be mandatory
13:04
DNA testing at birth. I don't
13:06
know why you, okay, it's
13:09
calling my wife a whore to do that.
13:11
I mean it's ridiculous. Pearl especially pushes a
13:13
hopeless message when it comes to women who
13:15
have made bad decisions in their life. She
13:18
recently pushed back against an only
13:20
fans performer who came out and
13:22
said that she's deleting her pornographic
13:24
Only Fans account and
13:26
becoming Christian. This is what Pearl
13:29
said to that. Why don't we
13:31
support a woman giving her life
13:33
to God? Now
13:35
this is where I say I see
13:39
so much
13:42
S-I-M-P-I-N-G simping
13:44
in the conservative movement because
13:47
everybody is praising this as a W.
13:50
Everybody's saying this is a
13:52
win. This girl has changed.
13:54
Rejoice, rejoice. But out of
13:56
every 10 people that say they're
13:58
changing or try to change me, be one
14:00
or two actually makes it. Now
14:03
some of what Pearl said, a kernel
14:06
of it, is true in her reply.
14:08
Like the idea that we should be
14:10
wary of what people say about their
14:12
conversions, especially if they have a public
14:15
platform, because not everyone is genuine. In
14:17
my episode on celebrity conversions, I said
14:19
something similar. So I understand not being
14:22
gullible when this happens. But
14:25
I also said that we should
14:27
practice the policy of trust, but
14:29
verify. And we should have an
14:31
overall attitude of rejoicing. We just
14:33
shouldn't be gullible. Pearl,
14:35
however, makes it seem like women who
14:37
have done pornography or have been unmarried
14:40
mothers. There's no real sense
14:42
of rejoicing at all, even in a measured
14:44
way. These people are
14:46
unredeemable in her eyes, and men
14:48
should always avoid relationships with them.
14:51
And this is why in church, a lot of times
14:53
you see men that don't know better marry single
14:57
mothers, ex-corn
14:59
stars, etc., etc. Only
15:03
to have many of those women, after
15:05
a couple of months or years or
15:07
whenever the attention wears off, go back
15:09
to the exact habits that they
15:12
started with. While Pearl treats certain women like
15:14
damaged goods because of their mistakes, she makes
15:16
excuses for men to do things even like
15:18
cheating because she says, well, that's just what
15:21
high value men do. Why did he cheat?
15:24
And a lot of times, instead of
15:26
looking at where the men are coming from and asking
15:28
yourself the question, how did I contribute to this? We
15:30
want to just put it on the men. Did you
15:32
gain a bunch of weight? Have you been nagging him
15:34
24 seven men act
15:36
like this is the most unforgivable thing
15:38
that he is the ultimate
15:41
bad guy, the ultimate demon if he does
15:43
this. I'm sorry, sometimes
15:45
you contributed to it. And
15:47
women take no accountability for that. We should just let
15:50
these men cheat in peace. No,
15:52
I'm serious. He's rich and famous. What do
15:54
you expect? Again,
15:57
I just think life's about choices and trade off.
16:00
and like, men
16:03
I just think are biologically predispositioned to sleep
16:05
with a lot of women. The men who
16:07
are over six foot tall are statistically 38%
16:10
more likely to cheat, which is presumably just down
16:12
to the opportunity. So it's like
16:15
if we're going after the guys with all
16:17
of these qualities, like, do you think we
16:19
should maybe expect it on some level? I've
16:21
seen some accounts on X saying that they're
16:24
glad this particular woman did not convert to
16:26
their denomination because they did not want that
16:28
kind of trash in their church. Wow.
16:31
It's just like, remember when Jesus told
16:33
those prostitutes to not talk to him
16:35
because he didn't want damaged goods in
16:37
the kingdom of God? Of course
16:40
not. It's amazing
16:42
the un-Christ-like behavior some
16:45
people manifest when the faith
16:47
becomes a convenient costume and
16:50
their heart really belongs to the world, or
16:52
at least the online world. And
16:54
that's what I often see with Pearl and
16:56
her followers. Finally, what's saddest
16:59
to me is that the men who
17:01
are most devoted to Pearl, the ones
17:03
who most enjoy her content, they're just
17:05
making themselves more and more miserable. Nobody
17:08
found happiness by just sitting at
17:10
a computer complaining with other miserable,
17:12
anonymous people about how a certain
17:14
group is making life hard for
17:16
them. If you or someone
17:18
you know is one of those miserable people, tell
17:21
them or yourself, log off,
17:24
touch some grass, go sit in
17:26
the presence of God at church. Ask
17:28
God to take away that addictive
17:31
anger and replace it with his
17:33
peace. It's the only thing that
17:35
can give us joy in a sinful world.
17:37
The love of God is the only thing
17:39
that truly allows us to be holy and
17:42
to be kind to others in
17:44
the face of terrible evils, no
17:46
matter which sex commits them because
17:49
God loves men and women. He
17:51
made us male and female so we
17:53
could create new little persons with immortal
17:56
souls and get them and each other
17:58
to have a good life. That's
18:00
not easy, but it's something
18:03
worth fighting for since the bitter
18:05
people offering the red pill have
18:07
nothing better to offer that satisfies
18:09
the deepest longings of the human
18:11
spirit. Thank you guys very
18:13
much, and I hope you have a very blessed
18:15
day.
