	Welcome back to Shots Fired.
	Well, I remember growing up as a little girl, I went to private Catholic school most of my life, and I remember the private Catholic schools that I went to were pretty free from indoctrination and sexual grooming and gender identity and everything.
	We didn't do any of that stuff when I went to school not too much long ago.
	I'm not going to go ahead and age myself, but It didn't seem that long ago that this was the case for Catholic schools.
	What happened since then?
	Well, Josh Alexander is joining us in a minute.
	He is a 16-year-old student from Canada, a member of a Catholic school.
	He was a student at a Catholic school, all right?
	Again, it's just so surprising.
	And he got suspended.
	For doing what?
	Oh my God.
	For daring to say that there's actually just two genders and actually quoting Bible scriptures.
	That got him suspended from Catholic school.
	And ever since then, it's been an uphill battle.
	He's basically fighting for his life and fighting for the ability to just attend school again.
	So much has happened, so I can't wait to hear his thoughts on this.
	Josh Alexander and everything that's happened since this crazy circus that you've been on.
	Josh Alexander, thanks so much for joining Shots Fired.
	How are you?
	Not too bad.
	Thank you for having me on.
	All right.
	So first of all, I got to ask.
	I mean, yeah, I went to Catholic school, Catholic elementary school, Catholic high school.
	Is it that bad now?
	I mean, Catholic schools aren't even spared from this Marxist madness and indoctrination.
	So I've actually I've had the opportunity.
	I was homeschooled up until grade 7.
	I then went into the public board, just the plain public education system, and I had my own troubles there with the mandates and whatnot during the Freedom Convoy in Canada.
	It became a bit of a mess.
	I was a student leader.
	For the student walkouts against mandates and all that.
	I have my issues there.
	I was being suspended like every week just for refusing to wear the mask and whatnot.
	But at the end, we did what the mandates were in, and I leave school for a fresh start, and I switched to the Catholic board.
	I'm a born-again Christian.
	I'm not a Catholic, but I thought that maybe my beliefs would align better at the Catholic school board.
	I would think so, maybe, maybe, maybe not.
	Apparently not.
	About two weeks in, I was informed by some female classmates that males were using their private spaces and whatnot, and they were concerned about this, as they should be.
	I spoke out against it.
	I took it to the principal.
	I spoke with any concerned female students.
	And we were just trying to come up with an action plan on how to deal with this respectfully.
	So men, boys, and this was what grade?
	I was in grade 11.
	Okay, so yeah, so high school boys were using the females' bathrooms and allowed to use the bathrooms.
	And change rooms, yeah.
	And change room.
	Okay, gosh, I don't want to see a penis in the changing room at a high school.
	So the girls were telling you, and you had overheard gossip or whatnot, that the girls were feeling uncomfortable by this?
	Well, yeah, because I was, I mean, my name was fairly well known in a small community like that.
	After the walkouts and the mandates, they knew I was active and I wasn't afraid to say what I believed in, no matter the consequences.
	So they thought that maybe I would be willing to say something and they were right.
	I said something and it's since caused me a lot of problems.
	But I would argue that the Catholic Board is, in fact, much worse than the public board, in my experience.
	Wow, that's frightening.
	So you said, look, it's male and female.
	There's only two genders.
	You quoted some Bible scriptures.
	And from that, they took disciplinary action on you and you got suspended.
	That's what happened?
	Yeah, for the most part.
	It's been going on now for 10 months, that whole situation.
	Most of these conversations happened in September or October, and I was still meeting with the principal and trying to talk about ways we could work around this.
	Mind you, I come from a school that not only has male and female washrooms, but it also has gender-neutral washrooms.
	So you'd think that right there would settle the problem.
	Anybody who doesn't feel comfortable In their own skin, they're afraid of identifying with their own peers.
	You'd think they would just, you know, politely move over to the gender neutral washroom and nobody would have an issue.
	This wasn't the school where there was an issue with bullying for those kids.
	In Canada, one in four students identify differently.
	So they're no longer even a minority.
	But anyways, we talked about these issues.
	I had meetings with the principal, and it got to the point where he just said, no, I'm done meeting with you.
	We've told you what we think.
	And I said, okay, well then...
	He said this conversation over and I said, well, we'll see about that.
	So I went and I contacted everybody I knew.
	I got involved with the Ontario Party, a political party in Canada, or in Ontario, and they helped me.
	Freedom Fighters Canada joined, and we had several different organizations lined up to help with this, and we decided to throw together a rally.
	We had our protest announced, and sure enough, the next week, I show up at school.
	I get called to the office, and the principal wants to speak to me.
	I said, oh, surprise, surprise, we're back talking about it again as soon as it's hit the media.
	Yeah, so he tells me that He said that he would work with me through this process and that they would be open to having more conversations and facilitating the event that I had planned.
	Anyways, I guess they changed their minds because a week later, while I wasn't even attending class, I was away from school for a little while, and I get an email, and yeah, I've been placed under investigation for expulsion.
	I'm under suspension, and anyways, they're running this full investigation on me, and at the end of that...
	Sorry, before you get to the investigation, was there another rally where you said you were handing out Bibles and you got arrested at that rally, or was that the same rally?
	That was a while down the road, but that came much later.
	All this happened, this is back in November, December of 2022.
	This has been going on for a while.
	It all feels like it happened just recently, but Yeah, they put me under this investigation.
	I'm not allowed to attend class.
	Students are told if they attend my protest, they'll have their transportation, their bus revoked.
	Apparently, I heard rumors that some students were told that they would be kicked off the sports teams if they joined the protest.
	There's quite a few Threats thrown out by the faculty there.
	And anyways, I did my protest.
	Probably like almost 200 counter protesters showed up to my school to counter protest me.
	And they had unions against me and all sorts of pride groups there.
	But anyways, the protest happens.
	I'm still under investigation.
	And then finally, after 20 school days, They say that they want to have a welcome back meeting and they said that they've determined that my infractions weren't worthy of expulsion.
	However, they are going to stick with the 20-day suspension and it is going on my student record.
	Mind you, after all this, the allegations that came out against me that were apparently worthy of this investigation and suspension were me quoting Mark 10.6 in a classroom debate, which is God created the male and female.
	And then they were also concerned that when two teachers in separate classes promoted and defended male breastfeeding, I said that was pedophilia.
	And this is a Catholic school.
	I cannot believe that.
	You were quoting scripture.
	It's basic.
	I can't believe this.
	I can't believe that.
	Wow.
	Yeah, those were the allegations.
	They tried to say that by me quoting scripture, which is Mark 10-6, that I was bullying because there were students that identified differently than male or female.
	And by me quoting the Bible and saying that God created them male and female, that was considered bullying.
	Bullying.
	Everything's bullying, right?
	Yeah, everything.
	Just facts.
	Facts equals bullying.
	Yeah.
	I... So I ended up being placed under an exclusion order, which basically means I'm not expelled, I'm not suspended, I'm not under any disciplinary measures because I haven't done anything wrong.
	But they think that I could potentially be a danger to the students in the building.
	So they're just not going to allow me to attend school.
	I've been under the same exclusion order for about seven or eight months now where they just refuse to let me back.
	And they'll have meetings and pretend like they're going to bring me back and then just end it.
	So it got to the point where The semester ended.
	I lost four classes.
	I failed all four of them because I wasn't allowed to attend them.
	And I said, okay, I'm returning to class.
	This is getting ridiculous.
	This is setting precedent for other students.
	They're all watching.
	They know I've done nothing wrong.
	And I've got to make the right decision here, whether it's a hard one to make or not.
	And I knew that by complying with this exclusion order, it was an unlawful exclusion order, I'd be condoning it.
	And that's not something I was willing to do.
	So I returned to class on the second semester, first day of the new classes.
	I attended class.
	They brought me into the principal's office, said, you aren't welcome here.
	And then the principal stood in front of the exit of the office and told me that there's some people on the way to see me.
	So I asked him who it is.
	He wouldn't answer any questions.
	And then, sure enough, a few Ontario provincial police officers came into the school and arrested me right there in the school and took me away.
	Badge of honor.
	But...
	Yeah, so that made a lot of news right there.
	And I mean, right after that, I had Tucker Carlson and several other big shows asking to bring me on.
	So that's when it really became a public issue, is when media was showing me getting arrested at my school.
	Only one day later, I had already, with my crew, because out of all this, we have an organization called Save Canada.
	It's all my hat there.
	It's just a student organization, and we're very active, and we help other students in the situations like me.
	And we had organized an event at a National Arts Centre in Ottawa, and this is where Drey Queen Storytime was being held.
	And we went there in opposition to it, and we ended up giving the gospel outside of it.
	And so I was there with a couple of my buddies, my brother, and we had a megaphone and we were giving the gospel.
	Of course, there was about 200 counter-protesters there against us who attacked us.
	They were breaking our equipment, they were stealing our stuff, they were punching us.
	Anyways, the police ran into the crowd and they grab us, they throw us into traffic.
	They ended up arresting us.
	So that was the second arrest in two days.
	So it was getting to feel all too common.
	But yeah, they arrested me and my brother that day.
	And then, I mean, I just started doing plenty of media after that.
	And it only encouraged me to speak out more and more because I realized just how controversial these topics really were.
	I mean, we live in a country that supposedly has religious freedom, but it only has it up until when you challenge it, and once it becomes an inconvenience for the powers that be.
	So then that really fired us up, and me and my crew, we've been at it ever since.
	And we've traveled across the country to different schools.
	Where we've had, in some cases, hundreds of students come out to join us.
	And we had an event where we had a massive prayer circle of just probably 300 or 400 students outside of a school in Toronto.
	And we've kept doing that.
	And then, like you were saying earlier, there was There was one of those schools I went to.
	They had organized a protest against the school board in support of me.
	And this is in Calgary.
	I'm from Ontario.
	So I flew all the way across the country to go visit these kids.
	That were holding a rally in support of me.
	And of course, because it was in support of me, there was BLM and Antifa and whatnot outside the school protesting.
	And I've lasted maybe four minutes on the street.
	I was attacked.
	I got Punched in the face.
	They tried to set me on fire.
	They were choking me.
	They were burning our Bibles.
	They were just stealing stuff and breaking stuff.
	And I was there with Nathaniel Pawlowski and Declan Friesen, some of the gentlemen from True Dominion Canada, one of them being the son of Arthur Pawlowski, the pastor who faced a lot of persecution and still is for giving a sermon at the Freedom Convoy and opening his church during the lockdowns.
	But yeah, I got to be there with them and we We got attacked and we were completely peaceful, had our hands in the air, quite literally turning the other cheek.
	And the police came in and arrested us, or they arrested me.
	And they cuffed me, put me in a paddy wagon, interrogated me about what scripture I was reading at the event.
	They wanted to know whether it violated a conflict bylaw with the LGBT community.
	Alphabet community.
	Yeah, so they...
	They wanted to know whether the scripture I was using was lawful or not, which was certainly an interesting experience.
	The police asked you this.
	They interrogated you.
	That is just insane.
	They were concerned that the scripture I was using was unlawful in that city because they broke a bylaw.
	So, yeah, that was that.
	And again, that got another media wave.
	I was on Fox and Friends the next morning to talk about that.
	The Calgary police have since changed their attitude after it hit the news.
	Obviously the counter protest tried to shut me down.
	The police had me arrested in 4 minutes and it was pretty funny that by the end of the day the video of my arrest had 4 million views.
	Wow.
	They acted quickly, but not quickly enough, obviously.
	I've got several court dates coming up in Alberta regarding that situation.
	There are multiple other assailants who will end up being charged for that.
	That's basically the The gist of the story up until now, there's plenty more in there.
	I mean, you can look at what happened with my parents.
	They were both teachers in the public board, not even the same board I was in, but they ended up being placed on leave, and they've been under investigation and removed from the classroom for months now, just for being my parents.
	So yeah, it's Canada has definitely fallen.
	Like I was saying, we do not have religious freedom anymore.
	We have the illusion of freedom.
	And everybody that...
	All these fake Christians that will go to church, will close their churches during the lockdowns, will put government over God.
	Yeah, they can go about their faith, no worries.
	And they'll be able to do that every day, and that keeps the masses happy.
	But the second you challenge it, and the second you are bold about your faith, like the Bible tells us to be, the righteous are as bold as lions.
	The second you exercise that verse, it's gone.
	Yeah, wow.
	I mean, it's a social credit score is what y'all have completely.
	I mean, your parents are now affected by it.
	You're affected.
	The kids at the school who are supporting you are losing their sports privileges or their transportation privileges to school.
	I mean, social credit score.
	That's what that is completely.
	Consequences for believing in something or even supporting someone else who believes in something.
	I mean, unbelievable.
	And the fact that, like, BLM is trying to burn you for handing out Bibles is like, I mean, that should tell everybody everything they need to know about BLM. Recently, you said in the last couple days there have been more severe investigations, and you were investigated for one of Jason Aldean's songs.
	What was that all about?
	I saw you tweeting about that.
	Yeah, so I... I have been in contact with my school.
	They were silent for months, right through the summer, up until the end, the last week of the summer, they sent an email and they said, based on my inaction at school, because I was arrested and given a trespassing order at my school, because I wasn't present at classes or didn't attain any credits while under a trespassing notice, that I was being unenrolled from the school.
	So they just deregistered me with no warning.
	And they said, if I want to be re-registered, I can call for a meeting and I can go and sign up for that.
	So I said, yeah, absolutely.
	I don't know why I've been deregistered.
	I'm the only student in the building, I'm sure, who was deregistered.
	So I had that meeting.
	Well, actually, I had a meeting set up for the end of the summer, right before the school year started.
	A couple hours before the meeting was set to take place, we got heard back from the Ontario Superior Court of Justice and we won one of our first cases against the school, which now means that the school is forced to hear my appeals.
	They were going to try to get out of that and hide in the shadows, but now they're going to be forced to hear my appeals and it'll go before the school board trustees and whatnot.
	And they'll have to hear my case.
	But anyways, this happens and the school board 10 minutes before my scheduled meeting calls it off and says they have to review the court's decision and whatnot.
	So now we're into the school year.
	I've already missed days of school and they finally asked to meet again.
	And yeah, I attend this meeting with my lawyer.
	They have their lawyers there.
	And what was supposed to be a re-registry meeting, which is where I give updated address and contact information and stuff, and we do some class selection and get me set up for the year.
	Ended up being them scrolling through my X account and asking me about different things I've said on social media.
	And one of the things, well, they took issue with quite a few of my posts, but a few of the most noteworthy ones were I tweeted, I will not comply.
	And that was obviously in response to the headlines we're seeing about the mandates coming back and whatnot.
	And I simply tweeted that.
	And so they start asking me if mask mandates come back, if I will comply with those.
	And my answers to these questions will determine whether I'm allowed to have an education.
	So I obviously had to be careful how I answered these questions, but I also wasn't going to hide my views at all.
	I told them.
	If it's anything like last time, if it's just as much of a lie, if it's just as much as a phony pandemic, as a Christian, I don't believe I can go along with a lie.
	And I believe we're to give the truth and love, and that's what I will do.
	I said, I'm not going to live a lie, if that's what you're asking me.
	And so then we moved on from that question, and they found another post that they took issue with.
	And probably the best one was a post I had made.
	I've been in the States for a little while, and I was hanging out with John Lovell from the Warrior Poets Society.
	I'm sure many know these, a firearms instructor here in the States.
	We were doing some shooting and stuff and I posted a little video of us shooting and we had the soundtrack try that in a small town in the background.
	So, my school pulls this up and they're like, so why did you choose try that in a small town?
	Could you explain the lyrics to us?
	And they start picking certain lyrics out of the song going, explain the meaning of this to me.
	Why did you do this?
	Why do you support Jason Aldean?
	All these questions, which I told them was completely inappropriate for a re-registry meeting.
	And I said it's a song about defending small-town values and traditional values, and I think it's a great song.
	It was also cancelled by the Woke Mob, so I will do even more to support it in that sense.
	And yeah, I said I don't apologize for posting that song.
	So then they go into another one of my posts and they're like, I said, we saw you post about weak men in society.
	And I said, yes.
	And they asked me for an example of a weak man.
	And again, I kept reiterating how inappropriate these questions were, but I was happy to answer them.
	And I told them that their former principal, the principal who had me suspended and refused to take any action regarding females being forced to undress in front of males, I said that right there is a perfect example of a weak man.
	And all of them!
	Well, they asked me to go deeper, and they said, okay, so clearly you've targeted the RCCDSB, Brownfield County Catholic History School Board.
	They said, is there anybody else in that board who you would consider a weak man?
	And I said, Yes, absolutely.
	I said, I believe a weak man is anybody who refuses to stand up for teenage girls when their security and their privacy is being put at risk.
	And it's endangered.
	I said, anybody that doesn't take action against that, they are a weak man.
	The RCCDSB has a multitude of them.
	And...
	Yeah, after that, obviously, I think we both made our position fairly clear on where we stood, and they just had one last question for me, which was, if I return, will I respect the authority of the new principal?
	To which I replied, I will respect any leadership's authority as long as it doesn't violate my moral code.
	And they asked me to describe my moral code, and I had a Bible beside me.
	I reached over, I held it up, and I said, this is what I define the basis of my moral code by, the ethos and the values down in this book.
	It's what I live by.
	And I said, that's not going to change.
	And I do respect authority.
	Authority is a biblical thing.
	And I will continue to respect that, as I always had.
	But I also will live by that book.
	And I'm told to protect the vulnerable and speak for the speechless.
	And that's what I'll continue to do.
	And that's where the meeting was left off.
	And yeah, I'm waiting to hear back from them right now on whether I'll be allowed to return to class and get an education this year.
	Wow.
	Just unbelievable.
	But let's be real, though.
	I mean, I think traditional classroom settings probably isn't for you.
	You're a trailblazer.
	You know, you're a Paul Revere.
	You're bold.
	You're a troublemaker.
	And it's good.
	I mean, you stand up for your principles and you have strong convictions and you're not just going to be told what to do and comply if it's against your moral code or if it's a lie.
	So the traditional school setting right now, I think, is just probably not your place unless your goal is to go in and move and shake and shake up the establishment, which I think is a great goal.
	But you're going to have, I think if you even don't go to traditional college or finish out the rest of your high school in this traditional way, you're going to have a bright future ahead of you doing this kind of stuff, you know, revolutionizing the system.
	And trailblazing and shaking things up.
	I really do think you're going to.
	So I wouldn't have any fear if you just keep on getting kicked out of schools.
	Well, I do genuinely wish to proceed with my education.
	But like I told them in the meeting, I do want to go forward with that.
	There's nothing that I will, nothing including my education that I will put before protecting the vulnerable.
	And this school It continues to allow males to watch females undress, and I believe that's perverted.
	I believe that's wrong, which reminds me that they also, one of the conditions to my return that they asked for was that I refused to use the words grooming or perverted when referring to the school's policy on washrooms and change rooms, which I immediately declined.
	But yeah, I do want an education.
	I do want to continue that.
	Do I have much respect for the The effectiveness of the modern education system?
	Absolutely not.
	I believe it trains slaves and workers rather than free thinkers and entrepreneurs and successful businessmen.
	I think it completely works against all of that and intentionally does so.
	But I still do want to continue my education.
	And finish up like I would so I can move on to anywhere else or be able to get a job or whatnot, just like any other student would.
	A high school diploma shouldn't be too much to ask for and I'm going to continue to fight for it.
	I think it's ridiculous that I have to go to the Human Rights Tribunal in order to do so.
	Amen.
	Amen.
	Thank you.
	Thank you so much for being a bold Christian warrior and a very strong, bold man.
	You have a bright future ahead of you.

	Welcome back to Shots Fired.
	Well, speaking of the devolving of our culture into the trashcan, like with our previous guests, what do you think about this?
	Do you think that women were probably happier, healthier, and more better off back in the day, back in the 40s, 50s, or before then, than they are now?
	Married to their career, slaving away, working their butt off, up the corporate ladder, sacrificing a family and children for what?
	Or do you think women are actually better off today?
	Do you think they're happier today?
	If you're an honest person and you look at most women who are career-driven, I think that you would see that they are not truly, truly happy, especially those who have worked their way up to get that corner office and that law firm partner title, but they sacrifice the ability to have children.
	They sacrifice their true love, which is in a woman's instinct, which is to have a family and have a lover, have a husband, truly grow that love from their household.
	And bring beautiful, productive children into the world.
	Most women who are in that bracket would probably say they feel like they regret it and they feel like they missed out.
	My first book was called Making Love Great Again, and it was exactly about that.
	It was about how women have turned into these feminist, corporate, career-hungry worker bees who are truly lonely and depressed now, and they were actually happier before.
	And how to bring conservative values back to women, why women should actually uphold those values and actually embrace them now more than ever.
	Because that's truly the answer.
	That's the real solution that's missing in so many women's lives.
	And honestly, it's the same thing going for men as well, but mostly the problem is women because women have changed so much due to radical feminism.
	Our next guest is a columnist at the Daily Caller and she has an incredible column and she writes these incredible headlines that I'm about to say in just a minute.
	Mary Rook.
	And she writes basically on this, on feminism and how it's been destroying women and culture and this kind of feminism, the toxic feminism.
	And here's just a couple of her headlines that I absolutely loved.
	Yes, women would be better off as housewives.
	The numbers don't lie.
	Love that headline, and it's very true, and we'll expand on that.
	Another one, you don't need to spend a full decade getting blackout drunk and sleeping with strangers.
	Love it, love it.
	And then another one is, we need to normalize slut-shaming again.
	So we're going to talk about this in a minute with our guest.
	Mary Rook, thank you so much for joining Shots Fired.
	How are you?
	Good.
	How are you doing?
	Thanks for having me.
	Yeah, I'm doing great.
	I just recently discovered your writing for The Daily Caller, and as I was scrolling through the headlines, each one I was like, yes, yes, that one, yes, yes.
	And they're very bold, obviously, and provocative because they're completely unpopular to most people today and most, I would say, most feminist women who fall into that category.
	So what brought you to the realization of where you are today?
	What made you kind of deviate from most women today who throw on their pink pussy hats and march for women's rights and the ability to work and slave away at work instead of having children?
	Honestly, I think it was that God gave me four girls.
	And I sat back one day and I looked and I thought, okay, what kind of women do I want them to be?
	What kind of honorable women do I want them to be?
	And I looked around and I realized the women of my generation were not the role models I wanted for them.
	And that I also needed to become a better role model for them so that they understood that all of the toxic I hate man ideology that is kind of shoved down our throats since the moment we're born is not real.
	It's not true.
	And that if we can foster a love for both men and women in our society, then it'll hopefully bridge the divide.
	And so I saw the girls as like, okay, It may be too far for millennials, but maybe for the next generation of women coming through, then we can kind of cure these bad habits that we've got.
	But really, it's looking around and seeing how lonely a lot of my friends are, some of my friends that are very successful in their careers, but they do not have children, and ones that are talking about Freezing their eggs or possibly getting like a sperm donor or something like that because they're so desperate for children, but there's no way to make it happen for them in their current life path.
	And I think that there is a real moment in our society right now when we need to sit back and go, okay, there are millions of women, at least three generations of women who have bought into the casual sex lie.
	And we really have to bring them back into the fold.
	And so I'm hoping that with my work through the op-eds with the Daily Caller and then also they are giving me my own podcast that we can kind of work through this, go on the other side of it and really talk about the nitty-gritty and why men allowed feminists to control our society for so long under mob role is insane.
	Right.
	It's, yeah, men, at the end of the day, allowed this to happen, and they never should have allowed that to happen.
	You're right about that.
	I mean, women have, feminists have turned, have pitted women against men.
	Men and women used to be partners.
	They used to be, you know, have a synergistic relationship with each other.
	They used to need each other.
	Wow, what a concept.
	We used to need each other.
	And now they've taken that away and replaced it with, I don't need a man, and a woman needs a man like a fish needs a bicycle.
	And so they've created enemies with each other.
	Instead of working together, they're competing with each other.
	They're enemies with each other.
	It's created this very toxic environment.
	So we see it now, we have two societies essentially.
	One before where men and women loved each other and one now where men and women hate each other and despise each other.
	And you can see the difference in the way our society functions.
	We used to be safe walking the streets.
	We are no longer safe anymore because this societal construct has been broken.
	Yeah, and men are no longer safe in their jobs.
	I mean, women are all on this Me Too kick of, I'm going to take some powerful man down.
	I'm going to take him down.
	You know, here's how I'm going to take him down.
	And some of these Me Too claims are so frivolous, like some joke in the locker room or something or in the cooler room, but their goal is to try to take men down and then replace them with women, which is just, again, so toxic.
	So men don't even feel safe with women anymore either.
	Yeah.
	No, my husband has several single male friends who do not interact with women in the office because of that very reason.
	There is absolutely no benefit to them to continue to be cordial or look out for them or walk them to their car or make sure that they're safe as they're going home because the fear is that even speaking to a woman in the wrong way, you will then turn around and use that to ruin your life.
	But women can say whatever they want, though.
	Women can accuse men of the most horrible things.
	They can paint them as, you know, society's evil master.
	But at the end of the day, we need them so desperately.
	Right, exactly.
	We need them.
	And I think women are finding that out now.
	So let me get to one of your headlines, the first one I went over, and it was an interesting stat.
	Yes, women would be better off as housewives.
	The numbers don't lie.
	And one of the numbers that you found in a study published in SAGE Journals Found that 50% of involuntary and 30% of voluntary childless mothers, childless mothers, presented regret about not having children.
	So can you tell me a little bit more about that and what this article is?
	So as I was reading it, I actually found that study to be quite interesting because the purpose of it was to define what childless meant.
	And they came up essentially with two categories.
	Involuntary meant that the woman did want to get married and have children, but maybe her partner didn't, or she was on a career path that didn't allow it, or something to that effect, something in her situation took that out of her control.
	And then there was another subset of women who chose early on, we are not going to have children anymore.
	It's a smaller subset of women, but still large enough.
	And even among those women who decided early on, I do not want children, 30% of them regretted that later in life.
	But when they went and asked the mothers, Do you regret having children?
	Not a single mother said they regretted it.
	Every one of them, their regrets were, maybe I'm being too harsh on them, maybe I'm being too mean, maybe I don't spend enough time.
	The same things that mothers to this day are still grappling with and hoping that they're doing the right job.
	Good mothers don't regret their children.
	That's the reality of it.
	Yeah, exactly.
	And I actually, I think the study has been washed away, but I have seen a study that said that women are statistically more depressed by like a landslide now than they were in the 50s.
	And we use far more pharmaceutical drugs for mental health too.
	We are on higher rates of antidepressants, higher rates of anxiety medication.
	And we just found out that this medication is not even really helping people.
	All the studies were defunct about it.
	And so you have these women who are desperate for the love and security of a man, who are desperate to have a family, who are all alone, living in that depression.
	And then society tells them, you got it, girl.
	Just keep on pushing.
	Go up that corporate ladder.
	It'll be so good for you.
	And in reality, it's that life and it's that enabling of their singleness that's killing them slowly.
	Yeah, it's so sad when I see women in their late 30s or 40s, and they're still like, they're just a slave to their job.
	And they're so, you know, their face is pale.
	It's taken a toll on their physical beauty and appearance.
	And they're so empty inside.
	I mean, truly, they pretend, they post pictures on Instagram and Facebook of their fabulous life.
	Sex in the City was also a big agent for this movement for women, too, that glorified And the only character they had on the show that even promoted a semblance of monogamy,
	they made her out to be the dist Rich girl that was just, you know, kind of so far out of touch with mainstream reality when the reality is not having your body filled with sushi and having some man devour it off of you.
	That's not reality.
	Reality is, you know, creating a loving and lasting legacy with your family.
	That's reality.
	There's a secret Fed bailout happening right now, and it's looking like 2008 all over again.
	Banks are collapsing, executives are taking fat bonuses, and the White House is running to their rescue.
	While regular people are struggling.
	We can't pay our bills.
	We can't fill our tanks with gas.
	And suddenly, Biden has the nerve to bail out wealthy Americans again.
	And guess who's paying for that?
	We are.
	But the good news is you don't have to play their game anymore.
	Opt out of the system and move your cash into gold and silver right now before it's too late.
	Call my friends at GoldCo right now at 855-491-2348 And tell them Deanna sent you.
	Or go to goldco.com slash shots right now to learn the three simple steps you can take to protect your savings with gold and silver.
	Take action today to protect yourself and your family from financial collapse before the White House takes it all away from you.
	Go to goldco.com slash shots right now and learn how you can get up to ten thousand dollars in free silver.
	Yes, that's ten thousand dollars in free silver.
	Again, that's goldco.com slash shots, goldco.com slash shots, and they'll get you all set up.
	Make sure that you protect yourself, protect your savings, your future, and your family with Goldco.
	And studies have shown, yeah, and the data shows that women, that's in a natural, it's a woman's natural instinct.
	And, you know, the media will tell you and trick you and lie to you and say, this is what you guys really want.
	You want, you know, you want the glamorous lifestyle.
	You want to travel to Australia when you want to.
	Child-free life is so great.
	But in reality, your instincts are going to catch up to you at some time.
	Motherly instincts start kicking in if not by 20, then by 30.
	By 35, women are starting to get baby fever if they haven't settled down yet.
	And a lot of times when they really start getting baby fever, their instincts really start kicking in as a woman.
	It's too late.
	And they regret it.
	And so people like you and I are hated by feminist women.
	I mean, I've lost a lot of friends and a lot of women supporters by sharing these thoughts and publishing my book, and same with probably you.
	But in reality, I'm the only one, you're the only one telling them the truth.
	We're trying to save them from disaster.
	We're trying to save them from going down there.
	It's the most compassionate thing to tell someone they're doing something wrong.
	Yes.
	The most compassionate thing is to look your best friend, your sister...
	Your aunt and the I and say, listen, it's time to stop.
	You can't continue down this path or your loneliness will be with you on your deathbed.
	And I think that that was a remarkable thing about the study.
	The women they were asking were about 78 years old.
	So they were definitely on the other side of the arc of their life.
	They really had the time to process what their life brought them, joys and hardship.
	And the main point was that children were always a gift.
	They brought the joy to life.
	There was no regret when children came in.
	And at some point in our society, we stopped listening to women that had been through it and came to the other side and said, no, no, no.
	This is how you live a peaceful, kind life.
	And I think the quicker we get back to a legacy building society, the easier it is for these women to come back into the fold.
	Because right now we promote casual sex above all else.
	It is instant gratification.
	It is, who's making me happy now?
	Does he give me the ick?
	If he gives me the ick because he's told me he liked me, then I have to cut him, but let me go talk to the guy that literally won't say a word to me.
	None of this makes any sense.
	The process doesn't make sense outside looking in.
	Being married now for 12 years, I say to myself, these single women, they have it all wrong.
	They're so confused.
	It's like, look at your happily married friends.
	Are your happily married friends going and doing X, Y, and Z? No, okay, so then let's do X, Y, and Z, what they're doing to make it, it's the easiest A, B, and C formula.
	But for whatever reason, we've allowed this kind of like wool to be pulled over our eyes and say, okay, I'm not gonna believe what my eyes are seeing.
	I'm not going to see the destruction around me.
	I'm not going to see that I'm the reason that I have this problem.
	As a mother of four, I could go out on any trip I wanted to go.
	I can go to the farmer's market.
	I can go to brunch with my friends.
	I can go to any concert I want to.
	My children are never going to be a reason why we can't do things, but they may be a reason why I don't want to do things.
	You think that brunch on a Saturday is the most fulfilling thing I could do with my life, or my children on a Saturday morning?
	It's one of those unfortunate Situations where you're like, you'd be so much happier if you just did it this way.
	I promise you, just follow me.
	And these women are just looking at you like, you barbarian.
	Why would you ever want to send us back into the kitchen?
	Because we make good soup.
	We do.
	We make good soup.
	Let's go feed our families.
	Exactly.
	The greatest lie ever perpetuated on humanity was feminism, the most destructive lie, I believe.
	It's destroyed women, families, and therefore also destroyed men, because men a lot of times can't find a good woman, and so then they go down that path as well, the promiscuous path.
	So one of your other headlines were, too, is we need to start normalizing slut-shaming again, and you don't need to spend a full decade getting blackout drunk and sleeping with strangers.
	And one statistic I read as well is that there's been studies, I think multiple studies, that showed that women who have promiscuous casual sex are much more likely to get depressed and be on anxiety and depression medications.
	I mean, there's a clear link between casual promiscuous sex for women and depression and anxiety, right?
	I think so.
	I think that there is this disconnect between men and women.
	Men think that women can handle the amount of casual sex that men can, and I honestly don't believe that men can really handle the amount of casual sex they have themselves, but especially not to the degree that women can't.
	We are emotionally High-strung creatures.
	We're not complicated.
	We want love and we want security.
	And so if we are being told that we can't have that, but instead we can have fleeing moments of sexual gratification, it's going to send our brain into like overdrive mode.
	Okay, how do I process the fact that this guy does not love me, but he wants me for my body?
	How do I process the fact that this man does not love me, he doesn't want to support me, but I have to rearrange my schedule in order to be around him.
	I have to do all of these things in order to be able to invite him into my home.
	These aren't normal processes for women to go through, and I think that slut-shaming is one of those things in our society.
	It sounds just so awful.
	It sounds like, you know, you're just Aunt Lydia, essentially, you know, just demonizing every woman that's come across you.
	But in reality, what we need to be doing is holding ourselves to a higher standard.
	Our celebrities Our famous people that are going to go out there and be role models, whether they like it or not, if they're in front of a screen, they are a role model to people growing up and to people around them.
	We have to hold them to a higher standard.
	Our content has to be held to a higher standard.
	We can't be continuing to allow women go out in the world as if nobody sees them, but they expect to be seen at the same time.
	It's a dichotomy that men cannot Process in the same way that we can't process casual sex.
	They look at us and they say, she's beautiful.
	She's wearing something that makes me feel sexual and I'm going to go up and talk to her.
	But women Don't want that.
	They're showing all the signs and then they're pushing these men that come and make these advances in public away from them.
	And so I think that if we can just boil down to the fact that the way we hold ourselves as women is how the next generation is going to see themselves, if we tell them that the only worth we have is in our sexual bodies, then it is another generation of women that we've sold the lie to that sex And love can never be together again.
	That they are two separate things.
	When, if anything, they are more connected than almost anything else on Earth.
	Sex and love were meant for marriage.
	And when you have it in marriage, it is better than any other sexual gratification that you can get outside of marriage.
	When you have a happy, loving marriage where the husband and wife respect each other, your sex life is more than you could ever imagine.
	And I wish that these women understood and these men understood that there is something better waiting for them, that unlimited partners is not the way to garner that.
	And that was my point with the Joe Jonas and the Sophie Turner split.
	It seems insane to me that these two beautiful people with young daughters are not gallivanting around the world somewhere, just running out her anxiety.
	If she is partying too much, if this really is what it is, then Jonas has a responsibility on himself to take her and heal her.
	Whatever is broken inside her, he needs to help her.
	And allowing the divorce to go through would be such a mistake, in my opinion.
	It was just wasted energy.
	I agree.
	It's a tragedy how many families break apart, how many divorces happen.
	I think a lot of them could be saved and be healed.
	And our children are watching these celebrities get together, then get divorced, then get together, then get divorced, then get together, then get divorced, and they think that is normal.
	It's normal to try on husbands as you would choose, and we have to stop that cycle.
	Yeah, and the role models like Cardi B are out there literally saying your WAP is all you got.
	You know, like go out there with that WAP and make that money and get a lot of guys and stuff.
	It's just so sad and like how they've how they've devolved.
	It's the rise of the OnlyFans culture where everything is a commodity.
	Everything on your body is a commodity.
	Yeah.
	And if you even listen to songs from the 40s or 50s, and you listen to songs now in pop culture, it just totally illustrates the fall of our culture and our society and the family unit and women and men.
	I mean, it just epitomizes that brokenness and that fall into destruction.
	I think nothing speaks that more than...
	Do you remember the controversy over Baby It's Cold Outside?
	Yeah.
	And every year around Christmas time, they're like, look how sexist this is.
	It's practically rape.
	He just wants her to stay in.
	That's the sign of what love used to be.
	Constantly coaxing one another together.
	Constantly drawing each other together.
	The cat and mouse game.
	That's called flirting.
	That's normal.
	I know.
	It's not rape.
	That's how normal interactions between men and women go.
	You don't play games all the time.
	You just...
	That is...
	I thought that was probably the biggest sign that our culture had lost its way.
	When I listened last year, someone actually said, how do you hate baby it's cold outside, but like walk?
	How can you do the same?
	And the guy says, WAP is about women's empowerment where baby it's cold outside was showing that the patriarchy was still in control of sexual relationships.
	And I'm sitting here listening to it and I'm thinking to myself, and what reality is feminism?
	Being in control of sexual relationships is better for society.
	Let's go back.
	WAP is not great.
	Not great for society at all, but not great as a song anyway.
	So let's get better content out there in general.
	Yeah, and glorify women, you know, glorify motherhood, glorify femininity, glorify family, then homemaking again.
	Have role models that are like that for women.
	Fortunately, this is all, like the new Barbie movie, right?
	It was just total feminism crap.
	Betty Friedman, one of the founders of the newer Waves of Feminism, she said, and this is one of her famous quotes was, you know, the reason why I started looking elsewhere was because I was just so bored being at home and just making PBJ sandwiches for the kids and cooking for my husband and taking care of my man.
	There's more to this world than that.
	It's just so terrible and boring and submissive.
	And I'm like, you know what?
	If people were honest these days, I think a lot of these working women would trade their working life right now to stay at home, have the luxury of staying at home, and the privilege of taking care of your man, making PB&J sandwiches for your kids, and cooking at home, and being taken care of and provided for so you don't have to go work 9 to 5.
	Or 80-hour-a-week job slaving to the man.
	I mean, like, what?
	That was a luxury, a privilege.
	And women have replaced that life, that fulfilling life, with this slave-to-their-job life, which is really better.
	I mean, come on.
	Yeah, our husband is the corporate company now, and our children are the bottom line.
	And then...
	The women that are alone and only have the corporate life, they don't even have the love and the care that they need to continue to live a fruitful life because they're going home to nothing.
	They're going home to their cat and their plants and they're wondering why.
	But they get to go to Venice.
	They get to go to Venice on a Tuesday, so somehow that's better than motherhood.
	Yeah, brunch life, wine life.
	And I'll just say real quick, too, that, you know, this new culture, too, of working mom daycare.
	It also sucks.
	And it's not very good for women or the family, too.
	I was reading a Reddit post the other day in a parenting group, and the woman said, I feel really guilty about leaving my daughter so much with her grandmother.
	And reading the post, it was terrible.
	She's a three-year-old, sorry, two-and-a-half-year-old, And she spends all day long in daycare, every day full time.
	And then after that, half of the time she spends with the grandmother so that, and this is the worst part, the mother only works part time.
	She doesn't even work full time.
	She doesn't need the daycare, but she works part-time, and she's so busy with her hobbies.
	She likes to snow ski.
	She likes to horse ride.
	She likes to do all her hobbies, and she doesn't want to do any...
	She doesn't want to stop her life of hobbies at all, and that's why her two-year-old is thrown into full-time daycare, even though she doesn't even work.
	She just works part-time, and then the rest of the time, she's with her grandma half of the week.
	I mean, it's terrible, and so many women are bragging about that.
	I love...
	You know, having my child in daycare all day so I can do my own thing and stuff.
	I mean, what?
	It's a culture of narcissism.
	They would rather be inconvenienced by a hobby or their job than they would be inconvenienced by their own flesh and blood, and that's that.
	But it speaks to the nature of which are decided a hierarchy of needs.
	You've got, you know, on one side...
	Women who want to take care of their family and see immense fulfillment and joy in doing those things for their family and raising their children or just see the responsibility behind it.
	You have a child.
	You have a responsibility to make sure that that child becomes a good adult is the reason why you've been given that child to raise.
	And I think it's really sad the reality that daycare has become such a large part of the family structure.
	It is almost like the third parent.
	Yes.
	And in reality, I mean, if you look at any main news stream reporting, daycares, schools, they're all abuse factories.
	These teachers have given up.
	The behaviors are terrible.
	Daycares alone, I mean, All you have to do is Google daycare, and likelihood is that outside of, like, popping up your local daycares, you'll see this person was a pedophile, this person abused a child, and it'd just be news report after news report after news report of these tragic incidents that are going on, and you look at that, and people are still, both parents in the home, still dropping their kids off at daycare.
	It just seems like an unfathomable thought to me.
	I agree.
	I mean, you know, some parents, they have to have to have daycare to make ends meet.
	I understand that and respect that.
	But for so many other parents, it's not a need.
	It's, you know, a woman wants to keep climbing that corporate ladder, wants to get those career accomplishments.
	Well, Mary, this has been a really riveting discussion on women and our culture and sexuality and how truly I, my prayer is that we really start Lifting up role models and glorifying women that are role models of motherhood and taking care of the family unit and taking care of your man and all of these traditional values that really, really need to be restored because the opposite of that are what's breaking our culture and destroying our women.
	All right, that's all the time we've got for today.
