=== Sorry, You're Not Supposed to Complain (03:50) ===

[00:00:01]  Mothers also face heightened societal expectations.
[00:00:04]  They're expected to be the primary caregivers and to sacrifice their own needs and wants for their children's and family's well-being.
[00:00:09]  What's more, you're not supposed to complain.
[00:00:16]  Oh my god.
[00:00:19]  Oh my god.
[00:00:28]  I'm so sorry.
[00:00:29]  How professional of me.
[00:00:31]  I'm sorry.
[00:00:43]  I'm sorry. I'm going to cough up a lung here.
[00:00:51]  I'm sorry.
[00:00:51]  I almost got there.
[00:00:52]  I almost got there.
[00:00:53]  Oh, my God.
[00:01:08]  *coughs* Bless the blood vessel.
[00:01:16]  Sorry.
[00:01:16]  This is me giving up.
[00:01:32]  Sorry. I don't know if you guys got that sentence, but...
[00:01:36]  Mothers also face heightened societal expectations, she said.
[00:01:45]  They're expected to be the primary caregivers and to sacrifice their own needs at once for their children and families' well-being.
[00:01:51]  What's more...
[00:01:52]  What's more, you're not supposed to complain about it.
[00:02:07]  All these women...
[00:02:16]  Oh, it's horrible because my husband is paying more of the bills or the government is paying more of the bills on the backs of largely male taxpayers and I have to spend time with my children and other people are funding me to clean the house.
[00:02:31]  But you're just not...
[00:02:32]  The whole article is complaining!
[00:02:36]  The whole article is complaining.
[00:02:38]  And you can look for these Mother Rage Pandemic, Mother Anger Pandemic.
[00:02:42]  It's everywhere.
[00:02:44]  Everywhere! But you're not supposed to complain about...
[00:02:47]  I broke my leg.
[00:02:58]  That's it. I'm just doing the rest of the show like this.
[00:03:04]  You're just not supposed to complain about it!
[00:03:09]  Oh, because, you know, that's one thing that women seem to have an enormous difficulty with, is complaining.
[00:03:17]  I mean, just getting women to complain, I mean, it's impossible.
[00:03:20]  It's like trying to get men to not complain.
[00:03:27]  I just think...
[00:03:30]  You're not supposed to complain about it!
[00:03:35]  Okay, sorry. I'll be back.
[00:03:39]  I'll be back. I think I just peed myself a little bit.
[00:03:42]  It's okay. I was a little chilly on the legs.
[00:03:46]  So yeah, just, you know, you're not supposed to complain about it, you know?

=== Women's Sacrifice (00:57) ===

[00:03:51]  And the idea is sacrifice their own needs and wants for their children's and family's well-being.
[00:03:56]  So, oh my God.
[00:03:58]  My God.
[00:04:08]  and My god. Sacrifice your own needs.
[00:04:14]  So women who choose a husband, who choose a boyfriend, who choose to get pregnant, who choose to go to term, who choose to keep the baby...
[00:04:25]  Suddenly, it is a giant sacrifice of their own needs and self-interest to take care of the baby that they themselves chose to have and to keep.
[00:04:33]  It's just a massive self-sacrifice, you know.
[00:04:36]  But you're not supposed to complain about it.
[00:04:38]  Stefan looks like he fell asleep for an hour in Arizona.
[00:04:47]  Oh yeah, I am a basically blue-eyed tomato at this point.
