What a great episode

Just binge watched both episodes of this show. I so appreciate this topic more than you know. To add to this, I’m a 24 year old Muslim woman that’s decided to be childfree since I was about 12. It feels incredibly isolating when you’re muslim because most girls get married and having kids around 25 due to the abstinence culture. It feels quite lonely thinking there might not be a Muslim man for me because they tend to be much more traditional. One of my male relatives who’s quite distant told me he’ll be praying for me to get married and have kids as soon as possible. It’s such a strange place to be knowing my opinions are considered so far out there. My own mother would like me to have 5+ kids which is so funny to me. I can’t thank you women for the community you’ve built and I’ve felt so welcome in these episodes. Kudos to you all.

If you focus so much on being independent, successful and having a career, and at the same time say something like "why should I date a man that can´t provide more than what I can provide for myself", you are just shooting yourself in the foot. Also, it´s easy to say "men are intimidated by successful women" and not think about it deeper than that. For example, I´m interested in a nice, caring, kind, compassionate, nurturing woman, and I want to provide for that woman and feel like a man. This is the way a normal man thinks. "Successful, independent and career-driven" are not qualities I look for in a woman. In fact they are off-putting because in order to have those qualities you likely have to sacrifice those qualities such as kind, compassionate etc. etc. And yes, if I would be in a relationship with a woman that is making more money than me, how could I be the provider and feel like a man? You can say this means I´m "intimidated by a successful woman" but really it just means I´m thinking like any normal man. Also you mention something about "masculine energy", but are you thinking about the kind of "energy" you exude? No criticism or offense, do what you want. Just some thoughts on what I heard. Maybe the whole point in the end is you don´t want to be in a relationship. I admit I didn´t listen to the whole thing but picked up some things.

I discovered your channel a couple of months ago, and I absolutely love the fact that you are bringing women together in these conversations 😍 I am wondering though, about the conversations around, what you are potentially seeking out unconsciously in relationships, that are damaging because we are somehow, 'drawn to bad men'. But what about the cases where women are ending up in abuse that could not be prevented, that are not the choice of the woman herself, I mean, sometimes these abusive relationships are so manipulative and systematically breaking down strong, confident women, no matter what age or experiences they may have. The fact that we have to, all the time, account for our own behaviours as women, that could have prevented abuse or 'choosing the wrong partner', feels just like a step back... I'd love to be in conversations where women are realising - 'there is no different choice I could have made, I chose to trust a human being that turned out to be completely disrespectful, abusive and narcissistic, without me seeking him out.' How to leave a toxic or traumatic relationship if you have in fact, a securely attached person, not been conditioned from childhood about abusive relationships? Once again, thank you for your content and for making us feel less alone ♥

Life is not perfect. men and women are not perfect. It's a give and take in a relationship. Ego is on a high. Women wanting to 'look' strong. Women have lost some of their femininility. Love and respect seems to be lost in this society. People in relationships need to grow together. Nobody wants to do sacrifices.

9/11 made me not want to have kids I was 19 at the time

I'm going to be a bit provacative here. Why is this format nuch different to Andrew Tate's? Of course it's much milder and respectful but ultimately it's the female version of trying to sell single people the idea that they're single because the opposite gender is flawed, weak, not worth your time, and not assuming enough of the typical gender role. I admit to only listening to sporadic parts of the discussion but i hope these shows are also bold enough to bring up self admittance of past mistakes and what one can do better to make a relationship work. Such discussions might ultimately validate 'incels' who adore Andre Tate more and the gender hating continues. Let's all pitch in to help young people work on themselves and their relationships more as thr single culture is dividing us big time.

"choosing to be single" is WILD bc its not a choice when there are no options, and a partner who is intimidated, unsupportive, taking away or not adding joy to your life isnt an option. Love the frankness, maybe men will listen and get over themselves. Xx

I agree with a lot of the points brought up but not with the one where you said that men are intimidated from succesful woman. For me, i’m not intimidated from anyone. I hate arguing and hate drama. So I just decided to remain single for the rest of my life. I’ve been in relationships, i’ve been in love, but as time went on, I realised that it’s better staying single and to focus on loving myself instead of loving someone who only loves you temporarily. It’s not any womens fault. It is a me thing. I have my own house, my own stuff, my friends, and I enjoy my life as I please. I really am happy and when compared to other 30 year males, I’m quite succesfull. I have my own stuff and do my own things and don’t think I need a woman. Each time I was in a relationship with a woman, 80% of the time, i felt critized, betrayed, gas lit. If there are no woman now a days that know how to love their men, why is it worth it for a man to be in a relationship? I don’t find being alone scary. I find it peaceful.

As the American comedian Chris Rock once said "only women, children and dogs are loved unconditionally. Men are loved with the condition that they provide something". This podcast helps prove this point. They are under valuing the simplicity in life and also making a relationship all about isma what can you offer me. How can you make their life better, their life greater, their life more valuable, when it's supposed to be a beautiful natural harmony and not a spreadsheet of tick boxes.

This podcast brings up some strong points about modern relationships, but also some contradictions and overlooks certain topics central to relationships. Emotional intelligence in men is important, but so is mutual understanding. Emotional intelligence should not be conflated with emotional labor. Men should not be expected to constantly manage emotional situations. Emotional intelligence is attractive in both partners, but attraction is not solely based on emotional depth; compatibility, chemistry, and life values should play an equal role. The idea that men must provide something "more" beyond what women already have risks making relationships feel transactional rather than about partnership. A relationship is about shared growth, not just one side proving their worth. Men also desire companionship, care, and emotional connection. What is the "more" that women should bring to relationships? The conversation about masculinity can create unnecessary pressure on men to be more masculine rather than simply be authentic. Rather than focusing on masculinity, the conversation should shift towards what makes a partner reliable, stable, and emotionally present. The theme of “choosing yourself” is empowering, but taken too far, it can lead to hyper-independence where people avoid intimacy altogether for fear of losing personal freedom. This can sometimes become a shield against vulnerability, preventing people from taking necessary risks in love. While it’s true that happiness shouldn’t depend on a partner, relationships require effort and some compromises - which make for a fulfilling relationship, in turn enhancing joy rather than taking it away. The "bare minimum" discussion is valid but if the “bare minimum” is set too high, people may end up rejecting good partners over minor imperfections. I say the above respectfully, to all participants and women out there.

Delusion galore.

Amazing podcast, love it

As a man, it seems vain people have the worst problems with anything regarding menstruation. Some men will not make love with a woman during her menstruation. And many women feel 'dirty' when menstruating, so they will not let a man near them during that time. Personally, I have never been afraid of, put off by, or intimidated by a woman's menstruation. It never seemed 'dirty' to me. But I have run into a few women who have had a bad problem with it, mostly because of old taboos handed down from their parents and other previous generations of women. I eventually became curious, so I took it upon myself to learn the details regarding women's anatomy when it comes to lovemaking and all their sexual issues. My wife had no worries, problems, or concerns about her menstruation (she is post-menopausal now). I could make love to or touch her any time, period or not. She was so happy I did my 'homework' about her body. And I had a lot of fun learning it! All the best!

Thank you for this conversation!

Thank you for this conversation ❤

Dr. Chiara - the best gynaecologist I have ever been to! Warm, understanding, trying to figure it out, always puts you first. I will always remember you! ♥️

I'm baffled by this issue. Leave people alone and let them live their life the way they want. Mind your own business child free or not. Ive had three children, lost one and love them more than anything in the world, that works for me, not everyone. You don't need to have children to be a whole human being or a good or happy human being.

New subscriber after this video! I'm 24 years old, as well as childfree and it is hard finding like-minded people my age. When it comes to relationships, every single man I've ever encountered either had children (and wanted to add on to his football team🚩) or wanted or planned to children in the future

My biggest dream was to be a mother and wife. I spent my entire 20s looking for a man to do that with. Over time, I 100% lost my emotional, sexual, and mental attraction to men. It's possible to have wanted to be a mom your whole life. Then, not want it anymore. Can you please do an episode interviewing women over 40/45. Who are single for a decade or more. Maybe at least single for 5 years minimum. Who are also childless, too. Listening to the 23 and 31 year old is interesting and delightful for sure. I'm looking for examples of women over 45 who are single (for years) & childfree by choice. I'm drawn to other women who are childless. I've always had friends with children. I'm not interested in making new friends with children below 6 or 7 years. Don't want to be around babies and children. I like babies and children. I'm asexual. I have 0 attraction to men and women.

I chose at 29 years old, last year. To be childless. I'm now 30. Also, I'm not attracted to men. At the same time I'm also not lesiban either. I'm asexaul. I choose lifelong singlehood as well. People don't understand asexuality is real. People struggle believing, I mean what I say. I haven't heard people mention being asexual.

Husband and kids are not a gift its work and a burden.

Personally I think it would be better if at such a young age people learn how to deal with life and insecurities. What are these women going to do when they reach their 50s? You look around today and women all seem to have the same lips. So much filler that they have no expression left in their face, ridiculous

Hey Trudy, would you be able to provide those links that Ms Nicola has mentioned please? Amazing podcast as always!!

I’ve recently purchased his six pack revolution book and my favourite recipe so far is the Thai green curry. I feel even more inspired hearing his story and managed to cook the Thai green curry recipe from start to finish during this video. Hope to get some results. 😊

Fun episode, however I would’ve appreciated if you guys invited a young doctor who conducts these cosmetic procedures to get concrete information about said procedures

Quite informative I must say, however, it was more of a one girl constantly talking, leaving the host and the others guests not much left to say

Scott you did an awesome job on this topic! I heard in my soul that hitting bottom should shift us to look at our foundation not our feelings. Thanks for having him girls and great episode! Watching from Canada.

I stopped listening when Six Pack Revolution was mentioned half a dozen times . Do these people know that it’s triggered eating disorders in young women in Malta? It’s also unsustainable and you gain it all back once you stop and simply start adding salt etc. It is also anti social. I’m so surprised this was chosen as a promotion. Please consider more healthy and manageable options

I am so happy to find a part 2 of this conversation ! 🥳 I am 37, and have never felt the urge of having a child. I am also a professional dancer and not ready to give up my identity in exchange for becoming mother. Now I am pregnant and waiting for an abortion in 2 weeks, because I am so sure that I do not want to have a baby at this point. Having to give up traveling and derive from my many years of focus on dance and the passion connected to it, to full focus on a child would just make me unhappy. Thank you for these conversations!

A slight american accent Rebecca has😊

As a childfree woman in my thirties, I wholeheartedly respect the mothers in my life. That is exactly why I do not take lightly the work that they do.

UA-camr yv_edit said she'd have tons of kids if she could be the dad. That shuts people up because EVERYONE knows parenting is far less burdensome for men.

I was never drawn to children, even as a child myself. I just don’t connect with them. I think children are a valuable experience for people who want them, and I’m happy for them.

Haul* not hoard. It definitely capitalize on the dopamine hit getting something new.

LOVE Carla Grima Atelier. Pure class.

Dont want kids, im 38 now and i just dont want to be a father, i like being by myself, and helping animals and being with my parents and sisters, i dont need much else. Women have every right to not want kids, its their lives and they will live it as they want. Children are a massive massive challenge that only the most self sacrficing should have.

Just look at the people in the world, they are physically weaker than ever & we are on a decline. I'm not leaving any trace of this lineage behind, I'm ending it.

Please be aware that sex ed in Malta does start from Grade 4. It is included in the syllabus.

I am an SAHM myself...not always easy but I wouldn't change it for the world!! Loved this episode!

Im looking forward to Valletta marathon 2025❤

Honesty to the child's question, yes the reply will be different and age-appropriate is needed. Sex talk to a six-year-old and a twenty-year-old will be different, do not push them off to the "Birds and the Bees"

Conversation must not be a contest, one person is not correct, and are you both correct in your own thoughts, it's all an opinion, and all opinions are correct.

Very interesting podcast, well done ladies! I need some advise. I am currently healing from chicken pox. I've always been blessed with good skin but this has left me with so many spots all over my face and body, and it has really affected my self confidence. Can you please recommend me a good cream/treatment as I am so terrified that it will leave me with permanent scars.Thanks.

I have suffered from acne since I was 13. I am now 37. I did an allergy test and found out that I am allergic to lactose, pork and salmon. Removed them from my diet and my face is clear.

Good skincare anti aging basic routine morning: vitamin C + sunscreen. Evening: cleanser, vitamin A aka retinol or retinal + moisturiser.

Interesting

Cant listen such a "experts" who says that progesterone not need it for a women wthout womb. Shame!!!

The 23 year old may change her mind. She still has time. But if she goes on as she describes, I predict she will regret a decision not to have a child or children. It sounds lonely. With a 2022 Malta TFR of just 1.15 births per woman & declining, you’re not exactly a trailblazer young lady. Good luck, with whatever choice you make.
