Transcript

00:00I am a person, let's say I am a man, I want to choose a woman.

00:02So what kind of woman will I choose?

00:04I'll choose a woman who pleases me, ingratiates me, but never really challenges me to the core.

00:11Some amount of challenge is okay, that is fun.

00:13Let the two of us play air hockey.

00:15We are challenging each other.

00:16But if somebody challenges you to the core, shakes you up to the foundations,

00:20that's not admissible or is that?

00:22And therefore all our relationships just result in continuation of our misery.

00:28Not just continuation actually.

00:29Enhancement, aggravation.

00:31I will always choose a woman who does me no good.

00:33And if a woman exists, coincidentally, who can be of real help to me,

00:39the job of thought will be to push that woman aside.

00:42Reject her the first thing possible, because she is the one who will shake you up.

00:47She will move into your house and the house will collapse.

00:50Ditto for the other combination, you know.

00:52As a woman, you don't want a man who will challenge your most fundamental beliefs.
