1 00:00:05,240 --> 00:00:07,400 Speaker 1: Hey, this is Anny and Samantha. Howcome to stuff? I 2 00:00:07,440 --> 00:00:08,760 Speaker 1: never told your production if I heard you. 3 00:00:18,720 --> 00:00:20,560 Speaker 2: And for this Monday Minni, we're going to go ahead 4 00:00:20,560 --> 00:00:23,239 Speaker 2: and put this content warning slash triggion warning at the top. 5 00:00:23,360 --> 00:00:27,440 Speaker 2: This is a conversation about suicide, violence against women, harassment, 6 00:00:27,520 --> 00:00:34,080 Speaker 2: and overall gender violence. Yeah, and this is actually referring 7 00:00:34,120 --> 00:00:37,760 Speaker 2: to some of the incident that happened in June of 8 00:00:37,800 --> 00:00:40,560 Speaker 2: twenty twenty four. It is August of twenty twenty four, 9 00:00:40,720 --> 00:00:43,200 Speaker 2: just to put a little time stamp here, in which 10 00:00:43,880 --> 00:00:48,120 Speaker 2: a city council member tried to blame women for an 11 00:00:48,240 --> 00:00:52,400 Speaker 2: uptick of suicide that was happening in South Korea. And 12 00:00:52,440 --> 00:00:55,400 Speaker 2: we've talked about it in our k Pop special about 13 00:00:55,440 --> 00:00:58,000 Speaker 2: the fact that South Korea has one of the highest 14 00:00:58,000 --> 00:01:01,279 Speaker 2: suicide rates at this point, or at least that they 15 00:01:01,280 --> 00:01:04,680 Speaker 2: did when we were doing that specific episode. You can 16 00:01:04,720 --> 00:01:07,760 Speaker 2: go back to reference it and a lot of conversations 17 00:01:07,840 --> 00:01:11,080 Speaker 2: about women no longer wanting to have children or no 18 00:01:11,120 --> 00:01:13,080 Speaker 2: longer wanting to get married in South Korea. We talked 19 00:01:13,080 --> 00:01:15,480 Speaker 2: about the four B movement, which has been a debate 20 00:01:15,480 --> 00:01:17,319 Speaker 2: in itself, but back and forth about whether or not 21 00:01:17,760 --> 00:01:20,160 Speaker 2: a South Korean women know or are a part of this, 22 00:01:20,319 --> 00:01:22,200 Speaker 2: or whether it's just kind of like been inflated by 23 00:01:22,200 --> 00:01:24,360 Speaker 2: the rest of the world up back and forth. Actually 24 00:01:24,959 --> 00:01:27,680 Speaker 2: more women are actually on board with the forur B movement, 25 00:01:27,720 --> 00:01:29,920 Speaker 2: as in fact, a lot of the women outside of 26 00:01:29,959 --> 00:01:32,399 Speaker 2: South Korea are like, we want that movement here as well. 27 00:01:32,840 --> 00:01:35,800 Speaker 2: And you can reference I believe in Monday Mini. Is 28 00:01:35,840 --> 00:01:38,160 Speaker 2: it a Monday Mini or it a Monday Mini and 29 00:01:38,480 --> 00:01:40,200 Speaker 2: a fe minist around the world. I think it was 30 00:01:41,000 --> 00:01:43,399 Speaker 2: about some of the feminist movements that were happening in 31 00:01:43,440 --> 00:01:47,400 Speaker 2: South Korea. But with that, yeah, so here's a little 32 00:01:47,440 --> 00:01:50,680 Speaker 2: bit from a Times article that wrote about it. Local 33 00:01:50,720 --> 00:01:53,559 Speaker 2: media reported Sunday on June twenty eighth the press release 34 00:01:53,640 --> 00:01:56,160 Speaker 2: by Soul City Council member of Kim Ki Duck that 35 00:01:56,280 --> 00:01:59,600 Speaker 2: included data on suicide attempts made at twenty one bridges 36 00:01:59,640 --> 00:02:02,320 Speaker 2: crossing the Han River from twenty eighteen to twenty twenty three. 37 00:02:02,880 --> 00:02:06,640 Speaker 2: Of sixty nine attempts, twenty four hundred eighty seven were 38 00:02:06,640 --> 00:02:09,120 Speaker 2: by men, one thousand and seventy nine by women, and 39 00:02:09,240 --> 00:02:11,840 Speaker 2: five hundred and three by those of unknown gender. The 40 00:02:11,919 --> 00:02:14,400 Speaker 2: report noted that in twenty eighteen, four hundred and thirty 41 00:02:14,400 --> 00:02:17,040 Speaker 2: people were reported to have attempted suicide on the bridges, 42 00:02:17,160 --> 00:02:19,840 Speaker 2: including two hundred and eighty eight men sixty seven percent, 43 00:02:20,160 --> 00:02:22,800 Speaker 2: while in twenty twenty three, the total attempts rose to 44 00:02:22,960 --> 00:02:26,240 Speaker 2: one thousand, thirty five, with seven hundred ninety eight, or 45 00:02:26,280 --> 00:02:30,280 Speaker 2: seventy seven percent involving males. The press release quoted comps 46 00:02:30,320 --> 00:02:33,400 Speaker 2: suggesting a cause for the trend. Unlike in the past, 47 00:02:33,440 --> 00:02:37,600 Speaker 2: when patriarchy and the ideology of male supremacy were prevalent, 48 00:02:38,080 --> 00:02:42,200 Speaker 2: Korea has recently begun to change into a female centric society, 49 00:02:42,480 --> 00:02:45,920 Speaker 2: with women outnumbering men by about five percent as of 50 00:02:45,919 --> 00:02:49,760 Speaker 2: twenty twenty three. As the number of women increases, various 51 00:02:49,760 --> 00:02:53,519 Speaker 2: factors are occurring, including changes in the marriage market due 52 00:02:53,600 --> 00:02:56,680 Speaker 2: to the shortage of men's labor and an increase in 53 00:02:56,760 --> 00:03:00,440 Speaker 2: men having difficulty finding marriage partners, as well as changes 54 00:03:00,480 --> 00:03:03,000 Speaker 2: in the roles of men and women due to women's 55 00:03:03,040 --> 00:03:08,400 Speaker 2: participation in society. The article continues. The solution Kim concluded 56 00:03:08,480 --> 00:03:11,520 Speaker 2: in the press release was that quote, in order to 57 00:03:11,680 --> 00:03:16,840 Speaker 2: overcome the expansion of female dominated phenomenon, it is necessary 58 00:03:16,840 --> 00:03:19,600 Speaker 2: to improve gender quality awareness so that men and women 59 00:03:19,600 --> 00:03:21,359 Speaker 2: can enjoy equal rights and opportunities. 60 00:03:21,480 --> 00:03:21,840 Speaker 1: Kim too. 61 00:03:21,960 --> 00:03:25,640 Speaker 2: Local newspaper Han kiore I wrote this based on my 62 00:03:25,680 --> 00:03:29,799 Speaker 2: own personal beliefs inferring the cause of the male suicide rate. 63 00:03:30,160 --> 00:03:33,680 Speaker 2: The paper also cited experts who refuted Kim's analysis, pointing 64 00:03:33,680 --> 00:03:36,320 Speaker 2: out that men have long had higher suicide rates than 65 00:03:36,320 --> 00:03:39,200 Speaker 2: women in Korea and across the world, regardless of the 66 00:03:39,200 --> 00:03:42,760 Speaker 2: status of gender equality. The latest World Health Organization data 67 00:03:42,800 --> 00:03:45,640 Speaker 2: shows the global age standardized suicide rate to be more 68 00:03:45,680 --> 00:03:48,640 Speaker 2: than twice as high for males at twelve point six 69 00:03:48,680 --> 00:03:51,680 Speaker 2: per one hundred thousand than for females at five point 70 00:03:51,760 --> 00:03:55,839 Speaker 2: four per one hundred thousand. So there's so much, there's 71 00:03:55,880 --> 00:03:58,280 Speaker 2: so much, there's so much to be said about this. 72 00:03:58,280 --> 00:04:01,680 Speaker 2: This was just one man's opinion. It made global news, 73 00:04:01,760 --> 00:04:04,680 Speaker 2: and there's so many people who came back and was like, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa. 74 00:04:05,520 --> 00:04:07,760 Speaker 2: This is not how the rest of South Korea believes. 75 00:04:07,880 --> 00:04:10,320 Speaker 2: This is not what we think, YadA YadA, YadA, but 76 00:04:10,400 --> 00:04:13,400 Speaker 2: in actuality it actually they. It may be it may 77 00:04:13,440 --> 00:04:17,279 Speaker 2: be more on par with that. There has been an 78 00:04:17,360 --> 00:04:20,279 Speaker 2: anti feminist movement that has happened. We know, and we 79 00:04:20,320 --> 00:04:25,240 Speaker 2: talked about the fact that the government, the last presidency 80 00:04:25,320 --> 00:04:29,920 Speaker 2: on the current presidency, he ran on an anti feminist 81 00:04:30,000 --> 00:04:34,120 Speaker 2: movement and got rid of the All Women's board, like 82 00:04:34,240 --> 00:04:37,080 Speaker 2: he was really adamant that is all women's fault when 83 00:04:37,080 --> 00:04:40,120 Speaker 2: it comes to low birth rate and low marriage status. 84 00:04:40,160 --> 00:04:41,919 Speaker 2: They've also blamed a lot of women for being a 85 00:04:41,920 --> 00:04:44,039 Speaker 2: part of the careers YadA YadA, as he kind of 86 00:04:44,040 --> 00:04:47,880 Speaker 2: already said in that conversation, and he's not the only one. Again, 87 00:04:48,680 --> 00:04:51,359 Speaker 2: I don't know if the numbers are as high as 88 00:04:51,400 --> 00:04:53,839 Speaker 2: it seems from the outside, or it's just that they're 89 00:04:53,880 --> 00:04:58,520 Speaker 2: the loudest, much like the US, which could absolutely be it. 90 00:04:59,120 --> 00:05:02,440 Speaker 2: And I'm wanting to to go a little further into 91 00:05:02,520 --> 00:05:06,800 Speaker 2: this article, which says they blame women. Blaming feminists and 92 00:05:07,160 --> 00:05:11,320 Speaker 2: reverse discrimination for social ills, including the country's severe demographic declined, 93 00:05:11,400 --> 00:05:13,640 Speaker 2: is not new in South Korea. Even as the country 94 00:05:13,680 --> 00:05:18,000 Speaker 2: remains far from female dominated, South Korea's overall gender quality 95 00:05:18,040 --> 00:05:21,679 Speaker 2: has actually regressed in recent years, particularly in the realm 96 00:05:21,680 --> 00:05:24,880 Speaker 2: of women's political empowerment. According to the World's Economic Form's 97 00:05:24,960 --> 00:05:28,480 Speaker 2: most recent annual Gender Gap Index, in which South Korea 98 00:05:28,520 --> 00:05:30,360 Speaker 2: brings one hundred and fifth of the one hundred and 99 00:05:30,400 --> 00:05:34,400 Speaker 2: forty six countries analyzed in twenty twenty three, down from 100 00:05:34,440 --> 00:05:36,760 Speaker 2: the ninety ninth in twenty twenty two, so they went 101 00:05:36,839 --> 00:05:41,359 Speaker 2: down another like six in its ranking, and again not 102 00:05:41,480 --> 00:05:44,680 Speaker 2: surprising as that was part of his whole platform in 103 00:05:44,800 --> 00:05:47,240 Speaker 2: order to be elected. And people were like, yeah, absolutely, 104 00:05:47,520 --> 00:05:49,320 Speaker 2: and I just also want to read from the BBC 105 00:05:49,400 --> 00:05:52,240 Speaker 2: because again it made headlines, it made world news, and 106 00:05:52,279 --> 00:05:53,760 Speaker 2: of course it come to my attention because it's in 107 00:05:53,760 --> 00:05:57,800 Speaker 2: my feed specifically with South Korea the BBC Rights. However, 108 00:05:57,880 --> 00:06:01,239 Speaker 2: his comments followed a number of unscientific and sometimes bizarre 109 00:06:01,279 --> 00:06:04,360 Speaker 2: political proposals aimed at tackling some of South Korea's most 110 00:06:04,440 --> 00:06:08,279 Speaker 2: pressing social issues, including mental illness, gender violence, and the 111 00:06:08,360 --> 00:06:11,560 Speaker 2: lowest birth rate in the world. Last month, another sole 112 00:06:11,720 --> 00:06:14,280 Speaker 2: counselor in the sixties published a series of articles in 113 00:06:14,320 --> 00:06:17,760 Speaker 2: the authority's website encouraging young women to take up gymnastics 114 00:06:18,000 --> 00:06:21,640 Speaker 2: and practice pelthy floor exercises in order to raise the 115 00:06:21,720 --> 00:06:25,120 Speaker 2: birth rate. At the same time, a government think tank 116 00:06:25,200 --> 00:06:28,160 Speaker 2: recommended that girls to start school earlier than boys so 117 00:06:28,200 --> 00:06:30,600 Speaker 2: that classmates would be more attracted to each other by 118 00:06:30,640 --> 00:06:31,160 Speaker 2: the time they. 119 00:06:31,040 --> 00:06:32,080 Speaker 1: Were ready to marry. 120 00:06:32,440 --> 00:06:47,640 Speaker 2: They have some odd ideas. Unfortunately, I can't ignore the 121 00:06:47,640 --> 00:06:50,039 Speaker 2: fact that some of the violence against women in South 122 00:06:50,120 --> 00:06:54,839 Speaker 2: Korea has only increased. There's an article written by Koreapro 123 00:06:55,040 --> 00:06:57,960 Speaker 2: dot org talking about dating violence, and they wrote the 124 00:06:58,080 --> 00:07:01,679 Speaker 2: National Police Agency has reported a sharp increase in dating 125 00:07:01,760 --> 00:07:05,279 Speaker 2: violence cases from about forty nine thousand and twenty twenty 126 00:07:05,320 --> 00:07:07,839 Speaker 2: to a record high of more than seventy seven thy 127 00:07:08,120 --> 00:07:11,480 Speaker 2: twenty twenty three, with more than nineteen thousand reports so 128 00:07:11,600 --> 00:07:13,640 Speaker 2: far this year, and this was written in May twenty 129 00:07:13,640 --> 00:07:17,800 Speaker 2: twenty four. However, out of nearly fourteen thousand alleged perpetrators 130 00:07:17,840 --> 00:07:20,720 Speaker 2: of dating violence in twenty twenty three, only three hundred 131 00:07:20,760 --> 00:07:24,880 Speaker 2: and ten individuals two point two two percent were arrested 132 00:07:25,000 --> 00:07:29,480 Speaker 2: specifically for such crimes, the National Police Agency confirmed to 133 00:07:29,560 --> 00:07:33,080 Speaker 2: Korea Pro. The Korea Women's Hotline has reported that at 134 00:07:33,160 --> 00:07:35,120 Speaker 2: least one hundred and thirty eight women were killed by 135 00:07:35,160 --> 00:07:38,360 Speaker 2: their husbands or boyfriends in twenty twenty three, and additionally, 136 00:07:38,400 --> 00:07:41,680 Speaker 2: three hundred and eleven women survived attended murders. According to 137 00:07:41,680 --> 00:07:43,560 Speaker 2: the hot line, a woman faces the risk of being 138 00:07:43,640 --> 00:07:46,440 Speaker 2: killed by her husband or mel partner every nineteen hours 139 00:07:46,480 --> 00:07:48,960 Speaker 2: in South Korea. The data reveals that twenty percent of 140 00:07:48,960 --> 00:07:51,680 Speaker 2: perpetrators claimed the crime was accidental or occurred in the 141 00:07:51,680 --> 00:07:55,040 Speaker 2: heat of the moment. Other reasons perpetrators cited included demanding 142 00:07:55,080 --> 00:07:58,280 Speaker 2: divorce or separation that was eighteen percent, suspecting the victim's 143 00:07:58,360 --> 00:08:02,440 Speaker 2: relationship with another man fourteen per and feeling ignored four percent. 144 00:08:02,920 --> 00:08:06,280 Speaker 2: And the Korea Women's Hotline emphasizes that violence against women 145 00:08:06,320 --> 00:08:09,560 Speaker 2: within intimate relationships is a continuum of violence. It is 146 00:08:09,640 --> 00:08:13,400 Speaker 2: never truly accidental. So I've seen more and more. I 147 00:08:13,400 --> 00:08:16,480 Speaker 2: feel like there's a constant rise and things that are happening. 148 00:08:16,800 --> 00:08:19,760 Speaker 2: These things are not getting questioned again. Two point two 149 00:08:19,720 --> 00:08:24,160 Speaker 2: to two percent have been actually arrested for these crimes, 150 00:08:24,760 --> 00:08:26,840 Speaker 2: and even more so. The Human Rights Campaign had a 151 00:08:26,880 --> 00:08:30,400 Speaker 2: little more data about different things, including digital sex crimes, 152 00:08:30,520 --> 00:08:33,360 Speaker 2: so they wrote this. The government struggles to address digital 153 00:08:33,440 --> 00:08:36,480 Speaker 2: sex crimes, including widespread posting of pictures of women and 154 00:08:36,480 --> 00:08:39,839 Speaker 2: girls without their consent. According to a report released in 155 00:08:39,840 --> 00:08:44,800 Speaker 2: March by the MOGEF, digital sex crimes targeting children increased 156 00:08:44,880 --> 00:08:48,320 Speaker 2: between twenty nineteen and twenty twenty one. In June, the 157 00:08:48,360 --> 00:08:52,000 Speaker 2: government's Sexual Violence Safety Survey found that fifty one percent 158 00:08:52,120 --> 00:08:55,199 Speaker 2: of seven five hundred and five women surveyed worried about 159 00:08:55,200 --> 00:08:59,120 Speaker 2: becoming victims of sexual violence while using public bathrooms or 160 00:08:59,280 --> 00:09:04,720 Speaker 2: taking taxi alone. Again, there's been a huge conversation and 161 00:09:04,760 --> 00:09:08,360 Speaker 2: a huge uptick of crimes of like upskirt cameras and photos, 162 00:09:08,360 --> 00:09:12,040 Speaker 2: and very little has been done about that. In February, 163 00:09:12,080 --> 00:09:15,600 Speaker 2: South Korea's Ministry of Justice shut down the mogef's plans 164 00:09:15,640 --> 00:09:19,480 Speaker 2: to revise the legal definition of rape to include non 165 00:09:19,520 --> 00:09:23,400 Speaker 2: consensual sex. South Korean courts have interpreted the penal code 166 00:09:23,520 --> 00:09:26,880 Speaker 2: very narrowly, often ruly in favor of the perpetrator when 167 00:09:26,880 --> 00:09:32,600 Speaker 2: there are mitigating circumstances such as an abreation. So they 168 00:09:33,160 --> 00:09:37,560 Speaker 2: are so far behind in conversation about sexual violence, domestic violence, 169 00:09:37,880 --> 00:09:42,280 Speaker 2: all of those stalking, against digital sex crimes or any 170 00:09:42,320 --> 00:09:44,720 Speaker 2: of that. But they really want to blame women for 171 00:09:44,760 --> 00:09:48,920 Speaker 2: all these other conversations, the low birth rate, the low marriage, 172 00:09:49,000 --> 00:09:53,520 Speaker 2: the loss of jobs, men's suicide. Is honestly, really really 173 00:09:53,559 --> 00:09:56,680 Speaker 2: blatant about how no one's really seeing the root of 174 00:09:56,679 --> 00:09:57,240 Speaker 2: this problem. 175 00:09:58,080 --> 00:10:05,120 Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, and yeah, it is really upsetting because it 176 00:10:05,240 --> 00:10:08,160 Speaker 3: is so many times I feel like, well, why do 177 00:10:08,240 --> 00:10:10,880 Speaker 3: you think women don't want to have kids? Why do 178 00:10:10,880 --> 00:10:13,080 Speaker 3: you think women don't want to be with men? Like 179 00:10:13,120 --> 00:10:16,920 Speaker 3: what I can show you all of this data, I 180 00:10:16,960 --> 00:10:18,760 Speaker 3: can tell you stories. 181 00:10:20,120 --> 00:10:25,439 Speaker 1: And yet instead you are like women, why or why 182 00:10:25,480 --> 00:10:27,600 Speaker 1: won't you just go along with it? Why won't you 183 00:10:27,640 --> 00:10:27,880 Speaker 1: do this? 184 00:10:28,160 --> 00:10:32,479 Speaker 2: Yeah, and again like they're literally doing a punishment system, 185 00:10:33,120 --> 00:10:35,280 Speaker 2: like when the birth rate of like, okay, women, we 186 00:10:35,360 --> 00:10:37,200 Speaker 2: need you to have less jobs. So what we're going 187 00:10:37,280 --> 00:10:38,840 Speaker 2: to do is like try to see if we can 188 00:10:38,880 --> 00:10:40,760 Speaker 2: talk you out of working, or we're gonna try to 189 00:10:40,960 --> 00:10:45,520 Speaker 2: at the same time, and knowing these families cannot actually 190 00:10:45,600 --> 00:10:48,760 Speaker 2: sustain without both of them working. The amount of demand 191 00:10:49,360 --> 00:10:52,800 Speaker 2: and about amount of power of corporations in this area 192 00:10:52,880 --> 00:10:56,000 Speaker 2: and very little power for the employees, the level of 193 00:10:56,040 --> 00:10:59,320 Speaker 2: nepotism that could happen within this industry. Again, the amount 194 00:10:59,440 --> 00:11:02,920 Speaker 2: of stressed, like the competition and getting a job has 195 00:11:03,040 --> 00:11:06,160 Speaker 2: been pretty pretty intense. Like again, one of the higher 196 00:11:06,200 --> 00:11:10,160 Speaker 2: causes of suicide is the economics and that type of status. 197 00:11:10,160 --> 00:11:12,360 Speaker 2: And we've talked about that before. And they're not being 198 00:11:12,360 --> 00:11:15,480 Speaker 2: able to meet these standards. That is the actual conversation, 199 00:11:15,559 --> 00:11:17,559 Speaker 2: and no one was willing to have it. The amount 200 00:11:17,640 --> 00:11:19,560 Speaker 2: that you have to pay in having a home does 201 00:11:19,640 --> 00:11:22,559 Speaker 2: not meet the amount that you're being paid by your employee, 202 00:11:22,559 --> 00:11:24,400 Speaker 2: which is also in the US as well, but I 203 00:11:24,400 --> 00:11:27,800 Speaker 2: think it's even significantly more in South Korea the differentiation. 204 00:11:28,400 --> 00:11:31,000 Speaker 2: But with that, we talked about the education system before 205 00:11:31,120 --> 00:11:33,720 Speaker 2: and how how much money they have to pay for 206 00:11:33,760 --> 00:11:36,479 Speaker 2: a kid to get ahead, and because it's so competitive, 207 00:11:36,480 --> 00:11:39,319 Speaker 2: if you don't have money, these kids will not make 208 00:11:39,360 --> 00:11:42,480 Speaker 2: it onto the university or make it onto the secondary education. 209 00:11:42,760 --> 00:11:44,720 Speaker 2: They have to have tutors. They have to have specialized 210 00:11:44,760 --> 00:11:48,000 Speaker 2: tutors who are seen as gods in some aspects because 211 00:11:48,000 --> 00:11:49,800 Speaker 2: they have so much control when it comes to helping 212 00:11:49,880 --> 00:11:53,839 Speaker 2: children educationally move forward. So again, why would you want 213 00:11:53,840 --> 00:11:55,840 Speaker 2: to put your child through that if you can't afford 214 00:11:56,240 --> 00:11:59,439 Speaker 2: to give them that opportunity? Such an odd like cyclical 215 00:11:59,760 --> 00:12:05,800 Speaker 2: conversation and like constant pushback that the question is why 216 00:12:05,800 --> 00:12:09,280 Speaker 2: would we again? And the fact that there's so much 217 00:12:09,280 --> 00:12:14,720 Speaker 2: stress that to a lot of people, suicide is the answer, 218 00:12:15,240 --> 00:12:19,360 Speaker 2: which is so upsetting in itself, and giving the blame 219 00:12:19,480 --> 00:12:24,200 Speaker 2: to a specific gender is an odd next step, like 220 00:12:24,240 --> 00:12:27,079 Speaker 2: it's not an odd like this is obviously answer. 221 00:12:27,440 --> 00:12:32,679 Speaker 1: What it feels very in cel like the right it does. 222 00:12:33,120 --> 00:12:34,880 Speaker 2: It doesn't make sense like we were doing fine when 223 00:12:34,880 --> 00:12:37,720 Speaker 2: were just men doing the you know, being the main 224 00:12:37,760 --> 00:12:40,440 Speaker 2: focus of society and you're like, no, you weren't. The 225 00:12:40,480 --> 00:12:41,680 Speaker 2: suicide was still high. 226 00:12:44,120 --> 00:12:45,400 Speaker 1: Yeah. 227 00:12:45,920 --> 00:12:51,160 Speaker 3: Yeah, it's just that whole idea of like when men 228 00:12:51,520 --> 00:12:56,400 Speaker 3: blame women for like their own violence or their own 229 00:12:57,120 --> 00:13:00,319 Speaker 3: whatever it is, it's often against women. 230 00:13:01,400 --> 00:13:09,040 Speaker 1: I'm like, no, wait, wait, wait, what, let's let's hold 231 00:13:09,120 --> 00:13:09,440 Speaker 1: up here. 232 00:13:11,360 --> 00:13:14,080 Speaker 3: This is not correct, but we've seen it has massive 233 00:13:14,120 --> 00:13:22,160 Speaker 3: implications on anxiety and has led too h violence. So 234 00:13:23,320 --> 00:13:26,320 Speaker 3: it's something we have to talk about and keep an 235 00:13:26,360 --> 00:13:26,720 Speaker 3: eye on. 236 00:13:26,920 --> 00:13:28,319 Speaker 2: Happy Monday, everybody. 237 00:13:30,559 --> 00:13:33,439 Speaker 3: Yes, I was just thinking about this today. It's interesting 238 00:13:33,480 --> 00:13:35,959 Speaker 3: to me how many things we're talking about with cults 239 00:13:37,040 --> 00:13:41,040 Speaker 3: this month. It wasn't intentional, but cults and in cels 240 00:13:41,080 --> 00:13:45,200 Speaker 3: and things like that.
