She forgot to mention that after the Playboy exposé, nobody would hire Gloria Steinem for like a year because she spent some time as a Bunny.
... She was an investigative journalist. It was literally her job to snitch and exploit. And with regards to the bit about over exaggerating the negative aspect, she was a spearhead feminist undercover at the Playboy Club! What did you expect her to say? That she was glad to be seen as little more than eye candy?
Someone’s mad that she exposed the disgusting truth behind how women were treated at the playboy clubs sorry that it’s not ok to sexually exploit people
42 jade It’s such a shame she left out all the positive details of women being sexually exploited by men.
WTF? So she broke a huge story that created actually change within a company and gained national media attention yet she was blacklisted for a time because of the job she had to take to break said story? I would think publications would have been knocking down her door to hire her after that.
She is and was great, someone needed to do this. They violated labor laws too in terms of pay. They didn't pay the waitresses in Chicago for several weeks I think.
He’s such a sweetheart for not being afraid to show emotion. We absolutely STAN
He's weak and just pretend it to get laid. Because she is hot and drunk.
Screw the word STAN
Men show emotion. It’s not fucking groundbreaking.
Joxhua Thomax well I mean social conformities have condemned it since pretty much all western history and so it is a pretty big deal
Matthew Petzer True, but it is becoming much more common in the coming generations, which is a really good thing!
I love that Derek Waters cares so much about telling the stories of unsung heroes and heroines in history. He is adorable, and I love him!
Snaggle Toothed ain't nothing wrong with that either.
Snaggle Toothed they dont
Snaggle Toothed I have to save up money to wipe my ass but you don't see me complaining some times I just shove the shit back up my ass so i don't have to spend money
Snaggle Toothed not only are you hugely boring, not one woman cares what you think about their abortion rights. Plus, the fact that you’re turning a video about a historical icon into a place to complain about the policies you take personal issue with says a bit about your entitlement. BUT ANYWAY
Snaggle Toothed “god, these damn people using my hard earned money to pay for roads they walk on and bombs they drop on poor people”, would you rather pay for the kid? Lol. But none of the that matters because it’s literally illegal in the US to use federal funds to cover the cost of abortions. Thanks for just showing how ignorant and misogynistic you are! Not that we needed to know.
I love that Derek got teary-eyed about how the storyteller has stuck to her guns throughout her career.
Mirian Leon you like bitch boys?
Michael Johnston How's being scared of your feelings treating you?
Maria Theresa Francesca Castillo nobody has time for that bullshit. Why do women always want to turn a man into some little bitch? There is a reason why we have testosterone and women have estrogen.
Michael Johnston That's hilarious. Women aren't trying to turn men into little bitches, you guys are already little bitches without trying. You're whining about some guy crying on TV. It's not at all controversial or anything. So squeamish about human emotion, calm down would you?
hahahaha you are hilarious Maria Theresa. I love it!
Playboy sued Gloria for the story. So I don't think Hefner was all change of heart for the sake of women. More like public opinion was shocked at his practice.
all journalists should have liability insurance even freelancers..
Heff tried to act like he was a feminist icon, but he was a controlling douche.
Hugh Hefner was gross, period. People really need to stop acting like he was an active player in the feminist movement. All he ever did was capitalize on the work other women did and pretended he cared.
Angelica Rodriguez "Work" hahahaha!!!!! They show their ass for money.
Jeremy Fleshman, just my opinion, but having some experience "showing my ass for money" doing modeling, I can say it's one of the more physically demanding jobs I've had. And those bunnies have to deal with all kinds of creeps, which sounds like the worst customer service job ever.
Jane Krakowski being the "bunny mother" may be my favorite thing. I love this video. ALSO Derek CRYING. Ugh I'm dying. This is the best show.
Yes!! Makes this one of my favorite episodes
The disability one is equally great.
I misread your comment as John Krasinski as bunny mother and just thought has me nearly tearing up 😂😂👏
That made me want to hug him.
@@michaelpipkin9942 link? I want to see it!
Nothing wrong with a man's tears. Especially if they are tears of sympathy & reverence for the long standing suffering of a people
Absolutely true, and I thumbed you up. However, gently (as in, not mean-spiritedly) making fun of it is allowed with a friend. If I either belch loudly and a male friend makes fun of me for being unfeminine, _or_ I have one of my super girly moments and a male friend makes fun of me for being so girly, I have no problem with it, and I can't see men being more thin skinned on average than me. And when they've both had that much booze, I'd imagine they're automatically on a friendly level 😄
he was fake crying as a joke lol
LOL @ Don. so desperate not to admit a guy can cry. those were real tears, dude. Derek's a sensitive guy especially when he's sloshed
Im not saying a guy cant cry lol i'm just saying the timing of it all seemed comedic
Don Juan, seemed genuine to me. That's part of the beauty of this show, how unfiltered the host and guest get.
Hugh Hefner was a pretty slimy character. He is considered an American icon, and a lot of celebrities went to his parties with the hope of getting laid by the models. You can say that the women "chose" to be in this situation, but Hefner's sliminess was that his business model increasingly pressured women into situations they didn't want to be in without telling them. He closed his "Playboy Clubs" only after more and more sleazy news stories and complaints came out about them. He didn't need to do any of that to make money. That's the problem I have with him. He was never held accountable for his treatment of his female employees.
Well my teacher friend was in playboy and truth was that in early stage it was terrible but in the modern times like last 20 years they started respecting the models more and during her time never had been harass and saying Huey was nicest guy ever
MaskedMarvyl he was a good man. Glad he did what he did.
@@gregcarlson8438 , you didn't know him personally, so you don't know how good he was or not. I only know what was reported about him, and the many reports by his former models and former female employees about how they were treated.
I'm glad that you're glad that he did what he did. I'm glad to know that you do what you do. I'm also glad that I did what I did. You know?
MaskedMarvyl agreed. I am very glad he did the things he did. He help society a lot.
To his death as well. Hefner requested to be buried beside Marilyn Monroe, even though she hated him for published her nudes without her consent.
Shit, I've never seen a dude cry over women's bravery. Damn, Derek Waters.
Derek Waters seems like such a good guy.
Wow. I just realized neither have I. I love him now
Me neither! That was really wonderful.
wherefancytakesme I thought he was joking. Was he being genuine?
Derek is so sweet! Awwww.
It makes me tear up to see Derek cry, it broke me when he tearfully said "I'm sorry", like AWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW YOU DRUNK 😂
don't blame the drunkenness, the guy was effeminate to begin with.
@@spFOX-pz3fx you sound jealous. you should let that weight go.
@@spFOX-pz3fximplying that there's something wrong with a man exhibiting 'feminine' traits means that you think there's something wrong with 'feminine' traits to begin with.
Lots of similarities to NFL cheerleaders. They work insanely hard for peanuts. It's sad
Goddess in Training well they could do something useful that isn’t based on their looks, maybe they’d be better paid and get some job satisfaction that wasn’t based on the make gaze. Women didn’t have the choices in the 60s that they have now. So now a little grown up accountability please
@Diane Berg exactly. cheerleading is also one of the most dangerous sports in the world, there's not a single reason why these women should be paid this little
@Diane Berg okay. Then don't take it? Don't act like they had no say.
@@bojack40 what the players do isn't useful and they're paid millions
andrewthezeppo the point is not whether it’s useful, rather people (men) want to see them do it and are willing to pay. I don’t see people (men or women) who want to see cheerleaders do what they do. Doing what you want to do, doesn’t mean people have to pay you to do it.
”It's not a bagel, Derek!"
Carlos Miranda - hahahaha 😂
Who is this chick?
Also, bagel?
Roman Fox He called it a pap schmear. Schmear is what people call the cream cheese spread you put on bagels.
he doesn't own a vagina, why da fuck would he know bullshit pronunciations?
@@spFOX-pz3fx are you asking why a grown man should know how to pronounce the word smear
You guys should honor Gloria Steinem by actually reading the story she wrote. It’s actually really good.
That's not how this show works.
@@laurent1144 I'm pretty sure OP was talking to everyone in the comment section, not the show creators, but okay.
I'm gonna do that now
thanks for pointing that out! def gonna
Aww I like how he was comfortable crying about the subject matter, it shows he truly understands and cares. We need more hosts like that
Jane Krakowski is hilarious on this video. It's like seeing a 30 Rock clip.
I'm loving her in Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt
It helps that Katie Nolan speaks very nat-ural-ly.
Snaggle Toothed what do you mean
"Poor baby, can't hack it in the big city? Gonna move to the Bay Area and pretend that was your dream the whole time? Have fun always carrying a light sweater."
i do really adore her character in Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt.
Really, Feminism did a lot for society that is often ignored, and contrary to popular belief, we still need feminism today, in all countries even the west.
Keepadagroov she , and feminism in general, opened up a new world for women. Equal pay equal opportunity, better response and prevention for domestic violence and rape, just to name a few things.
+Isaac Baranoff You sound so fucking butthurt. What's the matter? You're mad you have to make your own sandwich cause the wimmenz aren't in the kitchen anymore?
Yea I agree I mean if a woman hits a man she deserves to get hit back like a man they should also help pay for dates ask men out and feel the rejection that men feel they should buy men jewelry I'm so on bored woo! Feminism!!!
I think we're forgetting what feminism actually is and how Steinem wasn't a great person herself. Good for history. Not a good role model.
The world doesn't need 3rd wave feminism
Fun fact: Gloria Steinem is Christain Bale's Stepmom
🤔
Anna D'souza really?
Really
For 3 years
WHAT!!!!!!!😮😮😮😮😮
"You got Ice-ised"
PPPPPPPPPPRRRRRRRFFFFFFFFFFFFHHHHHHHHHH!
Awsamazing Eden I literally spit out my drink when Katie laughed
Ice-aulted, thought that woulda been funnier
wasn't funny the first time he said it.
@@spFOX-pz3fx he said ISIS'd
They made her story into a movie in 1985 called A Bunny's Tale with Kirstie Alley. It was pretty good.
;)
I love that movie.
Ooh that's what that movie was about
@@stephanierodriq I love that movie too I remember watching it on TV LOL when it came on TV. Delta Burke and the mom from Growing Pains were in it too. 🤣
"Are you calling Gloria Steinam a skank?" "Who's calling Gloria Steinam a skank?" "She did!" "VIVIAAAAAAAAN"
LEGALLY BLONDE!
I didn't get the reffrence the first time watching it, but then i watch this video (and read your comment) and now i get it, i love it, and i'm going to rewatch LB for the fourth time this week.
This was great. funny speaker, witty host. I haven't seen much of this show, but I'm gonna start.
check out the ones by Tiffany Haddish! perfect stuff
alejandro L. Omg same. I clicked because I saw Abbi Jacobson from broad City.
The whole brothers and sisters one is super good. It's a great show 🙂
Youre gonna start seeing much of it?
DEREK IS SO PURE I LOVE HIM
.... lmao what in the FUCK. I meant pure as in kind and sweet?? are you ok??? who hurt you? ???
jesus christ my dude im engaged but ty for being so concerned about my pussy?? maybe get a life and stop being so weirdly concerned with mine?
1. is being trans a bad thing to you? why? 2. once again, are you okay? did something happen in your childhood to be so fucking weird and rude like this? thanks, let me know!
Emma Cook i know this is random, but i wanted to apologize to you on behalf of the aggressive, uncalled for manner in which this guy has accosted you on a simple comment. I thought the same thing when he cried, ive always liked the host(dont remember his name ironically) as a person, and wanted to get drunk with him, haha.
Congrats on your engagement, you seem like a lovely lady. You handled this little back-and-forth with more poise than i would have xD
Cheers
Snaggle Toothed whats with you resorting to sexual insults? Like none of this is called for at all. Take a look at what you just said to me, and reflect it back on yourself. Youre the one who responded to Emma's comment in the first place being derogatory and insulting for the sake of attention. And if i were looking for a "guy to fuck" why would i have directed my comment at an engaged woman? You need to chill the fuck out. Your insults are falling flat. Get a life, sir.
I think a lot of people in the comments' section are very much misinformed on what exactly feminism is: the advocation of women's rights on the basis of equality among the sexes. The operative word here being equality. True feminism is not the same thing as "misandry," or the dislike of men. Gloria Steinem isn't a perfect person, but her flaws can't take away from the significant, positive impact she's had on women's rights in the United States.
To be fair, I think a lot of "feminists" get this confused as well.
You can't be a good American and not be a feminist.
I see a lot of good comments here, and not much that’s either misogynistic or reminiscent of the SCUM Manifesto. I’m actually liking this crowd.
*cough, no true Scotsman, cough*
What rights do men have that women don't? Cite sources
It's 2019..
Hugh Hefner is already dead while Gloria Steinem still alive at 85.
So who really really won? 💁♀️
he died at 91 though
Well he died a millonaire, surrounded by young women and got to live 6 years more thatn gloria did as of now. So...I think nobody won.
@Me But that's not losing pal, we all die. He lived 91 years old as a millonaire with crazy parties and girls. It's not like he died at 50 in jail.
@Me So it's Augustus and Charles V.
tzuyucci he was 91 though
I’m guessing a lot of the people groaning that “they willing,y became bunnies, they could have quit at any time” are probably Ayn Rand readers. And also probably never read anything about brainwashing. Subjecting the women to such domineering, and even humiliating terms was a way of making them feel powerless, and hence making them feel unable to quit. Also worth noting that Hefner was a very powerful man across various media in those days, so no surprise that people would be hesitant to blow the whistle and incur the wrath of the Playboy empire when it was at its peak.
Daniel Ryan also I read an ad for bunnies from back then and it was very much promising girls glamour and made it seem really good to work there.

@@TT-rq3so incel
Might be worth mentioning that Ayn Rand, like Machiavelli and other proponents of hyper individualism, died alone. Be like Gloria - choose love, be love. Keep fighting the good fight.
@@Jacob-mq3mh It is relevant. Any lack of empathy for the women subjected to the playboy ploy - a lack of compassion that would portray them as complicit by choice to work there (and the same argument made by modern men who choose to see the brave women stepping forth in the "me too" movement as somehow at fault) is not only chauvinism - it is tribalism, or hyper individualism - the belief that we are all out for ourselves. This is an invulnerable stance that usually lays far greater punisher on the believer (see my comment, below) as it maintains that life is pretty lonely and competitive. Gloria's fight for others and compassion for the women subjected to this demanding, disgusting endeavor stands head and shoulder above what would be the Randian view of the whole system. I hope that helps. For more, read The Fountainhead, the works of Machiavelli, Nietzsche and Hobbes. Or just choose to go straight to Brene Brown, vulnerability and compassion work, and the joy of being surrounded by others who love and uplift because we get that some systems really do suck and we are all in this together.
Derek's tears got to me! This may be one of my new favorites.
Madison Bouse He's trying to get laid
when did men crying become a pussy magnet?
Lost it at "it's not a bagel" 😂😂
of course you did.
Well we get a bagel done every year🤣🤣🤣🤣
My grandma was a waitress at a playboy club before she became a flight attendant
Derek is soooo sensitive.... it's sweet that he got all teary-eyed. Luv that guy.
Playboy club was like an upscale, madmen version of Hooters.
Bunny's weren't the only women who had to do a physical, some office workers had to as well. There was a scene in mad men that showed this in detail.
I remember as a highschool student tutoring my friends in history one of them said that I explain history just like this show and I couldn't be more flattered after seeing these.
“It’s not a BAGEL Derek!”
That had me dead!😭 💀
A friend who grew up in Chicago told me how her family’s car broke down outside the Playboy club in a snowstorm when she was a kid. They went inside waiting for a tow truck. The dad was drooling, the daughter thought the bunnies were glamorous, and the mom was like “I’ve gotta get these 2 idiots outta here, pronto!”
I love the way Derek interacts with women. He's freaking great. Also... I need to learn more about Gloria Steinem. And Katie Nolan. This was super interesting.
LOVE IT. Love it! Loveitloveitloveitloveitloveitloveitloveitlovelitloveitloveitloveitloveitloveit
I can't believe he cried. That was adorable. I had no clue about all this! But I do now.
Drunk History is KILLING it this season! Every episode has been fucking phenomenal.
" can i get somebody else to do this? " lmao
The real zinger is when she says “if it weren’t for Gloria Steinem, I wouldn’t be able to be on TV.” Wow!
This was a great show!! Hopefully y’all can come back even it is just on UA-cam! Aww so beautiful to see someone be so proud of another peer/ friend ! Love to see honesty and transparency on tv!
Can't believe nobody is appreciating Katie Nolan's incredible delivery of this story. Nolan: top tier job. Kate-tober is the best part of AFE every year.
“It’s not a bagel.”
Love the show, but man I really have to quit drinking.
Amen, brother! But god damn it's hard...
Dillan Parker fuckin’ nightmare is what it is. Wish I could just have a couple like most people, but no, I just have to pound them one after the other until my whole system is begging for mercy.
Let it out man. Check out some AA meetings near you. It isn't for most, but if you can (I can't, yet) it will work. I just quit my line cook job to work at a car wash. I was making $18/hr to making minum wage plus tips (sometimes $10-11/hr on a good day). No stress though. Your health is more important than material things. That's my Input (after finding out why I wanna drink or feel something other than myself), and you can find 100 other different inputs in an AA meeting. Then again there's some bad ones. But that life. I wish you the best of luck. From one alcoholic to another.
Same, but I dont want to quit my brandy, bourbon, rum, and whisky.
*sigh* Me too, buddy. Me too.
"Schmear? Its not a *bagel*, Derek." bro im so high and thats the funniest shit ever.
If they have to remember all this stuff and then recite it drunk, this is impressive.
"are you actually calling gloria steinem a skank?"
"Who's calling gloria steinem a skank?"
"She is!"
"VIVIANNNEEEEEE!!!!!"
"Papsmear... I've never had one" lmao!
I met Gloria Steinem at a Chase ATM in the Village when I was in Graduate School. I had to try so hard not to fan girl, just a polite smile.
“ it’s not a bagel Derek” lol🤣
"It's not a bagel, Derek" LMAO
'Are you actually calling Gloria Steinem a skank?'
“Who’s calling Gloria Steinem a skank?!”
“Vivienne is!”
Vivienne!!!!
I love how the narrator's voice actually sounds like Abbi Jacobson
WHO'S CALLING GLORIA STEINEM A SKANK?????
Legally blonde musical reference? Nice.
everyone.
This quote immediately popped into my head when I saw this lol.
Literally the reason I know who she is
VIIIIIVVVVVVIIIIIIIAAAAAAN!!!
I love how Derek's impression of a New Yorker sounded just like Borat
DEREK TEARING UP OH GOD MY HHHHHHEART what a good egg
if you're really asian, I'll let you in on a little secret...
(it's not a good look for a man), take that as you will.
@@spFOX-pz3fx wut
You from NZ? That egg comment lol
"You cried... Can I get somebody else to do this?" 🤣🤣🤣
Love this whole episode so so much! Especially Derek crying! 🥹🤩
How Abbi Jacobson kisses her shoulders and holds her own is very relatable.
Also Gloria Steinem’s The Feminine Mystique is astounding!
That was Betty Friedan, hon.
The host's sentiment at the end 😭❤️
@Joshua Jung yea they aren't really drunk right?
I don't know if it's genuine or just editing, but I love how sometimes the speaker will lose track and interrupt Derek when he tries to remind them.
Speaker: What was I talking about...?
Derek: You were sayi-
Speaker: OH RIGHT SO...!
Is it just me or is Katie Nolan the cutest thing you've ever seen? I'm not talking about physically, clearly she's very pretty, but her personality. Hilariously and greatly (albeit drunkly) told story, very interesting too as always. But she is just the most adorable person ever imo.
gloria steinem also worked for the cia, forgot that part.
i love abbi jacobson!! I see so much of myself in her she’s a high key role model for me she’s already accomplished so much although I think she will continue to acquire fame and success.
The way he said I’m sorry at the end just killed me, I’m so in love with that man now.
I'm here for Jane Krakowski!
Now YOU drop, and do 50. The perfect Bunny Mother lol. This was awesome.
I LOVE Drunk History. It's so funny and educational at the same time
Why is Abbey so stunning
I KNOW, I'M REALLY PROUD OF HER! (and I'm not being sarcastic)
Jane Krakowski as bunny mother is everything
What I take with me about her is that she cared about people like me. I never felt like anyone really cared about me until I read her work. Writers, even female writers, up until her always felt wrapped up in the business of men, and like someone who looked like me was a side note, even as the protagonist. She makes me feel seen and heard. She made the things that have happened to me feel real.
real men show their emotions
not like that.
@@spFOX-pz3fx why not?
@@spFOX-pz3fx not everyone will do it in your own people are different they express differently except difference or don’t live with humans
So many people in the comments mad about feminism lol
Tbh all I'm seeing are comments about his crying
So many comments mad about patriarchy rape culture
Tallee. Rose. This Proving how Feminism is necessery I guess..
KaeYoss yeah it’s almost like it’s a big issue and if you talk to essentially every woman ever she has a story about a man who’s gone too far
Honestly I haven't seen any
The propper bunny way of serving is done wrong. It's called the dip, to prevent men from seeing into their cleavage. You have your hip facing the table and reach back while bending your knees. Hef's brother Keith was the one who usually taught the girls at his location.
Jacob Cannon probably not cause this was the 60s. You act like it was the same for more than 50years.
@@delvyntrinidad7131 no, the Bunny dip was used in the 60s shortly after they opened.
Breathlless yeah Ik but she was saying that they were doing it wrong and they probably weren’t cause this is when it first opened up
@@delvyntrinidad7131 The bunny dip was part of training. Since the start and the end of Playboy Clubs. Even in the reality show The Girls Next Door they still had to learn for the new (its gone now I think) playboy club in vegas. Hef is very anal about everything. He'd check out every aspect.
That's disgusting and sexist!!! It doesn't matter what it was called.
I like the host so much more over the years he's been doing this show. Not only is he funny, but he has opened up a lot more than he did in the earlier episodes of the show. I like people who aren't afraid to show their vulnerabilities.
"Gloria" would make a great Lois Lane.
That's Abbi Jacobson from Broad City :)
god, Abbi as Lois would pretty much complete my life
preach! when is DCTV going to give us the Lois Lane mini-series we deserve?
Now that you say it.. Her character must has been based on Gloria..
“You got ice-ist” 😂🤣💀
some time in the future there should be a drunk history episode about Derek, for educating the masses about historical moments, figures, etc... he really is one himself by now.

The idea of this kind of content is so cool. Lol
Is that a whisky sour? She knows how to drink

This entire episode on "sex" was one of the best this season... and this season had A LOT of good ones.
He cried.... and I fell in love!

What a great way to learn history!!
I liked this great story telling
These video make me wish I were friends with Derek -- great sense of humor and a total sweetheart (apparently).

In respect of DH, I always watch Drunk History while drinking a glass of wine.
Hands down the funniest Drunk History I’ve seen so far.
