1 00:00:05,200 --> 00:00:07,520 Speaker 1: Hey, this is Annie and Samantha, and welcome to Steffone 2 00:00:07,560 --> 00:00:09,200 Speaker 1: Never Told your production of iHeart Radio. 3 00:00:18,720 --> 00:00:21,600 Speaker 2: And welcome to another edition of the minist Around the World. 4 00:00:21,960 --> 00:00:24,319 Speaker 2: I'm just gonna go ahead and let you all see 5 00:00:24,360 --> 00:00:27,520 Speaker 2: behind the curtains a bit. It's been a rough several 6 00:00:27,600 --> 00:00:30,680 Speaker 2: days due to some things that has happened in my family, 7 00:00:30,720 --> 00:00:32,279 Speaker 2: which I'm going to talk about for the Happy Hour. 8 00:00:32,360 --> 00:00:34,880 Speaker 2: So if y'all stay tuned this week or whenever y'all 9 00:00:34,880 --> 00:00:38,559 Speaker 2: want to do this, you may understand why. But so 10 00:00:38,680 --> 00:00:42,040 Speaker 2: with that, I'm kind of cheating on this one, Annie, 11 00:00:42,720 --> 00:00:45,479 Speaker 2: because I've been kind of in a brain fog. I 12 00:00:45,520 --> 00:00:48,640 Speaker 2: actually did choose a specific person that I was going 13 00:00:48,720 --> 00:00:52,519 Speaker 2: to come to, but I've just been, you know, in 14 00:00:52,560 --> 00:00:57,520 Speaker 2: that level of like chaos emotional state. Also, just like 15 00:00:57,800 --> 00:01:01,840 Speaker 2: for me, when I get into a specific place where 16 00:01:01,840 --> 00:01:07,440 Speaker 2: it's sadness and depression and like emergency situations, I go blank. 17 00:01:08,160 --> 00:01:10,880 Speaker 2: I am the freeze, but it looks like I'm being stoic. 18 00:01:11,120 --> 00:01:13,959 Speaker 2: So it's like I don't necessarily cry, but I don't 19 00:01:13,959 --> 00:01:17,600 Speaker 2: emote well. My tone of voice goes down and octave, 20 00:01:17,640 --> 00:01:19,760 Speaker 2: which has always been funny to me, like why do 21 00:01:19,840 --> 00:01:21,880 Speaker 2: I do that? And I think you can hear that 22 00:01:21,920 --> 00:01:22,680 Speaker 2: a little bit now. 23 00:01:22,959 --> 00:01:24,360 Speaker 3: But with that, I'm. 24 00:01:24,200 --> 00:01:26,920 Speaker 2: Doing a little cheating with this episode specifically because I 25 00:01:26,920 --> 00:01:28,840 Speaker 2: wanted it to come back and talk about the four 26 00:01:29,000 --> 00:01:31,880 Speaker 2: Be movement, which is the South Korean feminist movement that 27 00:01:31,880 --> 00:01:34,680 Speaker 2: we talked about previously on an episode. In the feminist 28 00:01:34,680 --> 00:01:36,800 Speaker 2: movement in South Korea, because I've seen a lot of 29 00:01:36,800 --> 00:01:40,600 Speaker 2: things that's popping up on tiktoget is really like rearing up, 30 00:01:40,800 --> 00:01:43,640 Speaker 2: especially in the US, about what this movement is and 31 00:01:43,680 --> 00:01:47,520 Speaker 2: how indicative it is to everyone, all women essentially in 32 00:01:47,560 --> 00:01:51,600 Speaker 2: all people marginalized communities when it comes to finding the patriarchy, 33 00:01:52,000 --> 00:01:56,600 Speaker 2: and it's kind of gogotten its own type of legend 34 00:01:56,760 --> 00:02:00,520 Speaker 2: behind it because as we I think said previously, it's 35 00:02:00,840 --> 00:02:04,080 Speaker 2: actually a small sect when it comes to what's happening 36 00:02:04,080 --> 00:02:06,200 Speaker 2: in South Korea. Not a lot of people in South 37 00:02:06,280 --> 00:02:07,880 Speaker 2: Korea are talking about it, and that's kind of one 38 00:02:07,920 --> 00:02:12,000 Speaker 2: of the big things that TikTok creators have been talking about. 39 00:02:12,040 --> 00:02:15,400 Speaker 2: Who are Asian or know a little more about this, 40 00:02:15,800 --> 00:02:18,280 Speaker 2: they will tell you immediately it's not as big as 41 00:02:18,280 --> 00:02:18,920 Speaker 2: you think it is. 42 00:02:19,280 --> 00:02:20,960 Speaker 3: A b there's. 43 00:02:20,800 --> 00:02:23,800 Speaker 2: A lot of problems within this movement that you have 44 00:02:23,880 --> 00:02:26,359 Speaker 2: to consider, and I want to take time to talk 45 00:02:26,360 --> 00:02:28,520 Speaker 2: about that part because we also talked about the declining 46 00:02:28,560 --> 00:02:32,720 Speaker 2: birth rate, which is like South Korea has the lowest 47 00:02:32,760 --> 00:02:35,240 Speaker 2: birth rate at this point in time and continues to 48 00:02:35,280 --> 00:02:38,160 Speaker 2: go lower. And we did talk about the fact that, yes, 49 00:02:38,520 --> 00:02:41,000 Speaker 2: a part of this is because of the patriarchy and 50 00:02:41,000 --> 00:02:44,280 Speaker 2: sexism within South Korea, but also another big part of 51 00:02:44,280 --> 00:02:50,120 Speaker 2: that is because it's unaffordable and unattainable to have children 52 00:02:50,280 --> 00:02:54,160 Speaker 2: and live a life that is not impoverished essentially, and honestly, 53 00:02:54,360 --> 00:02:56,840 Speaker 2: like I want to link that to my own conversations 54 00:02:56,880 --> 00:03:00,519 Speaker 2: about adoption and why adoption even started in South Korea 55 00:03:00,520 --> 00:03:03,120 Speaker 2: and why it became such a big movement in South Korea, 56 00:03:03,200 --> 00:03:06,400 Speaker 2: and how all these children were just pretty much exported 57 00:03:06,400 --> 00:03:09,520 Speaker 2: out because they were a product. But this is that 58 00:03:09,560 --> 00:03:12,160 Speaker 2: same level of conversation. It never really has helped at all, 59 00:03:12,200 --> 00:03:15,639 Speaker 2: and then the people who are responsible for child bearing 60 00:03:15,880 --> 00:03:19,520 Speaker 2: and child bearing are not helped in any way. So 61 00:03:19,560 --> 00:03:21,919 Speaker 2: that's part of the big reason. But when we talked 62 00:03:21,960 --> 00:03:23,600 Speaker 2: about the four bing movement, we're talking about you know 63 00:03:23,680 --> 00:03:26,920 Speaker 2: the four nos, which is no sex, no marriage, no relationships, 64 00:03:27,480 --> 00:03:31,720 Speaker 2: no child bearing, all of that. So with that, which 65 00:03:31,760 --> 00:03:35,240 Speaker 2: sounds like a great idea. But one of the conversations 66 00:03:35,240 --> 00:03:39,240 Speaker 2: that have been happening within TikTok community, within feminist community 67 00:03:39,320 --> 00:03:42,560 Speaker 2: is the fact that when it comes to the trans 68 00:03:42,600 --> 00:03:47,000 Speaker 2: community in South Korea, they are not welcomed as in fact, 69 00:03:47,320 --> 00:03:51,840 Speaker 2: there has been accusations that this depth of radical feminists 70 00:03:51,840 --> 00:03:55,520 Speaker 2: that have happened within South Korea are pretty much turfs, 71 00:03:55,960 --> 00:03:58,600 Speaker 2: and that's exactly who they are. There is a group 72 00:03:58,760 --> 00:04:02,400 Speaker 2: of radical femin is called the Womed, which is like 73 00:04:02,480 --> 00:04:06,440 Speaker 2: putting women in nomad together who have been accused of 74 00:04:06,440 --> 00:04:09,000 Speaker 2: a lot of things that I'm not sure exactly everything. 75 00:04:09,040 --> 00:04:10,720 Speaker 2: Everything is kind of like heresaye for me, because as 76 00:04:10,800 --> 00:04:16,360 Speaker 2: I was researching Annie, there's not much conversation about turfs 77 00:04:16,400 --> 00:04:19,240 Speaker 2: within South Korea other than yeah, obviously they're there, like 78 00:04:19,279 --> 00:04:22,119 Speaker 2: that's kind of it. But there was a conversation about 79 00:04:22,120 --> 00:04:26,880 Speaker 2: how apparently there has been they will go out fully 80 00:04:27,000 --> 00:04:31,480 Speaker 2: testing people to make sure they are quote unquote biologically 81 00:04:31,480 --> 00:04:34,040 Speaker 2: women and we I hate that term. Please don't think 82 00:04:34,080 --> 00:04:36,200 Speaker 2: that I'm trying to say that. I'm just saying this 83 00:04:36,320 --> 00:04:39,520 Speaker 2: is what they are measuring in a very turf speak, 84 00:04:40,040 --> 00:04:42,919 Speaker 2: that they are born with a vagina essentially and that 85 00:04:42,960 --> 00:04:48,280 Speaker 2: they identify as women in that level biologically, and that 86 00:04:48,360 --> 00:04:51,080 Speaker 2: they will test whether they have an Adam's apple, they 87 00:04:51,080 --> 00:04:53,600 Speaker 2: have this like birth certificate, like all these things. They 88 00:04:53,600 --> 00:04:56,400 Speaker 2: go to the extreme to make sure that they are 89 00:04:56,440 --> 00:05:00,000 Speaker 2: not trans and in that level, accusing them of being infiltrated. 90 00:05:00,680 --> 00:05:04,760 Speaker 2: So take what like again, take this with like a 91 00:05:04,760 --> 00:05:06,640 Speaker 2: little bit of what I've been reading and what I've 92 00:05:06,640 --> 00:05:09,719 Speaker 2: been seen trying to really kind of uncover to the 93 00:05:09,839 --> 00:05:14,400 Speaker 2: level like take what JK. Rowling wants to do and 94 00:05:14,440 --> 00:05:17,520 Speaker 2: then times it by five and actually happening in these small, 95 00:05:17,760 --> 00:05:22,040 Speaker 2: very small sects that have existed in South Korea. 96 00:05:22,720 --> 00:05:25,760 Speaker 3: And again this is also that same conversation. 97 00:05:25,279 --> 00:05:29,680 Speaker 2: That they are very very very anti gay when it 98 00:05:29,720 --> 00:05:32,720 Speaker 2: comes to men, so they do not want anything to 99 00:05:32,800 --> 00:05:35,840 Speaker 2: do with gay men either and are very like offensive 100 00:05:35,880 --> 00:05:38,200 Speaker 2: in every way, to the point that one group of 101 00:05:38,200 --> 00:05:41,400 Speaker 2: feminists were like, hey, this is bad. Stop using these 102 00:05:41,440 --> 00:05:46,560 Speaker 2: derogatory terms towards gay men. And they're like, now we 103 00:05:46,600 --> 00:05:48,200 Speaker 2: want to We're going to We're going to keep doing 104 00:05:48,240 --> 00:05:51,480 Speaker 2: it because they are not one of us, essentially, And 105 00:05:52,000 --> 00:05:55,799 Speaker 2: this is that conversation we've had repeatedly where history repeats itself, 106 00:05:55,920 --> 00:05:58,480 Speaker 2: and maybe because when it comes to South Korea because 107 00:05:58,480 --> 00:06:01,960 Speaker 2: we've seen them as kind of a monolithe of one, 108 00:06:02,160 --> 00:06:04,839 Speaker 2: one specific group of people that haven't had too much 109 00:06:04,880 --> 00:06:08,440 Speaker 2: diversity up until recently, and they want more diversity because 110 00:06:08,480 --> 00:06:11,359 Speaker 2: they want that money, but they don't want to change 111 00:06:11,400 --> 00:06:16,200 Speaker 2: their own backwards ideas. And again, oh my god, I'm 112 00:06:16,200 --> 00:06:19,280 Speaker 2: gonna offend so much to the South Korean people and 113 00:06:19,360 --> 00:06:22,800 Speaker 2: communities and to my Asian peoples. I'm not saying this 114 00:06:22,880 --> 00:06:26,440 Speaker 2: is everyone. I am not saying that every South Korean 115 00:06:26,440 --> 00:06:28,400 Speaker 2: person is like this. I'm not saying every Asian person 116 00:06:28,480 --> 00:06:31,360 Speaker 2: is like this. Obviously I would hope that because as 117 00:06:31,360 --> 00:06:34,320 Speaker 2: a South Korean person myself, that would be awful. 118 00:06:35,040 --> 00:06:37,360 Speaker 3: But we can't deny this does exist. 119 00:06:37,400 --> 00:06:40,320 Speaker 2: So I'm talking about it as a whole in general, 120 00:06:40,360 --> 00:06:42,560 Speaker 2: as in, like, this is happening there, we have to 121 00:06:42,560 --> 00:06:43,640 Speaker 2: acknowledge it happening. 122 00:06:43,880 --> 00:06:46,400 Speaker 3: We can't look at one thing and neglect the other side. 123 00:06:46,480 --> 00:06:49,600 Speaker 2: Because what it comes down to is the lack of intersectionality, 124 00:06:50,160 --> 00:06:53,800 Speaker 2: which has been a lesson that we have learned repeatedly, 125 00:06:54,640 --> 00:06:57,359 Speaker 2: and knowing that this is important for any movement, for 126 00:06:57,440 --> 00:07:01,120 Speaker 2: any type of equality or equity to happen, intersectionality has 127 00:07:01,160 --> 00:07:04,960 Speaker 2: to be in this conversation. This is why so many 128 00:07:05,000 --> 00:07:07,640 Speaker 2: things have failed within our own system in the US. 129 00:07:07,960 --> 00:07:08,560 Speaker 3: We know this. 130 00:07:08,680 --> 00:07:11,240 Speaker 2: We know that when we were talking about the rights 131 00:07:11,240 --> 00:07:13,520 Speaker 2: to vote, women's rights to vote, they did not give 132 00:07:13,560 --> 00:07:17,440 Speaker 2: about people of color, specifically about black women. And to 133 00:07:17,440 --> 00:07:20,480 Speaker 2: this day it's still that conversation when it comes to 134 00:07:20,520 --> 00:07:24,240 Speaker 2: equitability and who gets what and why, there's a hierarchy 135 00:07:24,600 --> 00:07:29,160 Speaker 2: within feminism and within women's ranking or within those people 136 00:07:29,160 --> 00:07:32,760 Speaker 2: who are marginalized. So I say that as an overall 137 00:07:32,800 --> 00:07:36,400 Speaker 2: caveat to know not all South Korean people feel this way, 138 00:07:36,640 --> 00:07:39,040 Speaker 2: as in fact, the people that I have been looking 139 00:07:39,200 --> 00:07:43,400 Speaker 2: at or watching or seeing TikTok creators who are South 140 00:07:43,480 --> 00:07:46,160 Speaker 2: Korean are in the same conversation as I am. 141 00:07:46,440 --> 00:07:46,720 Speaker 3: I'm in. 142 00:07:47,000 --> 00:07:48,760 Speaker 2: I feel like I've got a good ranking of people 143 00:07:48,800 --> 00:07:53,160 Speaker 2: who are like, Okay, great, these are my people. My 144 00:07:53,520 --> 00:07:58,360 Speaker 2: FYP is working for me. Wonderful in that we think 145 00:07:58,440 --> 00:08:02,880 Speaker 2: that this conversation to be had, this idealized version of 146 00:08:02,920 --> 00:08:06,120 Speaker 2: the four P movement, is wonderful in that like, yes, 147 00:08:06,200 --> 00:08:09,480 Speaker 2: we want to have a call to equality and to 148 00:08:09,560 --> 00:08:14,720 Speaker 2: build a better system for not only women, but every 149 00:08:14,840 --> 00:08:27,760 Speaker 2: marginalized person ever, and that this is part of the change. 150 00:08:30,280 --> 00:08:34,080 Speaker 2: So it's interesting to see and have this conversation about 151 00:08:34,120 --> 00:08:37,200 Speaker 2: what this looks like because again, like there's that small 152 00:08:37,200 --> 00:08:41,520 Speaker 2: group of people that came through and was like, yeah, yeah, yeah, 153 00:08:41,600 --> 00:08:44,160 Speaker 2: we want rights, but we need to start with only us. 154 00:08:44,280 --> 00:08:47,640 Speaker 2: It's kind of that that's not gonna work for you, boo. 155 00:08:49,240 --> 00:08:51,320 Speaker 2: It's gonna kill this movement. It's gonna kill it in 156 00:08:51,360 --> 00:08:55,839 Speaker 2: every way. But if we can do a sustainable level 157 00:08:55,920 --> 00:08:59,960 Speaker 2: of growth in understanding that, this is a good, great start, 158 00:09:00,520 --> 00:09:02,280 Speaker 2: but now you need to look at the bigger picture. 159 00:09:02,360 --> 00:09:06,120 Speaker 2: And that's again that whole like conversation when it comes 160 00:09:06,160 --> 00:09:11,080 Speaker 2: to movements like the Fourbe movement. For those who are 161 00:09:11,440 --> 00:09:13,800 Speaker 2: talking about and celebrating it, there's parts of a week. Again, 162 00:09:13,880 --> 00:09:17,640 Speaker 2: I think it's great to celebrate. I'm like, yes, stick 163 00:09:17,679 --> 00:09:22,439 Speaker 2: it to the man literally, but but we have to 164 00:09:22,480 --> 00:09:26,440 Speaker 2: look into what is behind the scenes and yeah, where 165 00:09:26,480 --> 00:09:28,960 Speaker 2: it's coming from, and what they think it is their 166 00:09:29,080 --> 00:09:33,800 Speaker 2: change impacting that community. And from what I gather, obviously 167 00:09:33,840 --> 00:09:37,480 Speaker 2: the birth rates are not great and the Korean government 168 00:09:37,720 --> 00:09:40,160 Speaker 2: isn't panic I've seen recently. 169 00:09:40,200 --> 00:09:41,959 Speaker 3: Again my TikTok feed. 170 00:09:41,840 --> 00:09:46,920 Speaker 2: Is hilarious, but a lot of Korean celebrities specifically men 171 00:09:48,200 --> 00:09:51,360 Speaker 2: trying to encourage people to have babies, like as a 172 00:09:51,400 --> 00:09:54,160 Speaker 2: side note, as if like you know, when you have 173 00:09:54,240 --> 00:09:56,320 Speaker 2: a go like a movie like go Dogs, or like 174 00:09:56,360 --> 00:09:58,959 Speaker 2: when you like are a fan of something, you just 175 00:09:59,080 --> 00:10:02,319 Speaker 2: run in there the braves or something like randomly move on. 176 00:10:02,920 --> 00:10:06,400 Speaker 2: But that's what I'm saying celebrities and have children, Like 177 00:10:06,840 --> 00:10:10,959 Speaker 2: it's like, wow, they're really desperate in this conversation and 178 00:10:11,040 --> 00:10:14,120 Speaker 2: trying to get like people to have more and more children. 179 00:10:15,160 --> 00:10:19,640 Speaker 2: Of course, the bigger conversation about like who is providing 180 00:10:19,720 --> 00:10:22,080 Speaker 2: what and what is being said, and we talked about 181 00:10:22,080 --> 00:10:25,679 Speaker 2: this again with the birth rate episode, that they're just 182 00:10:25,760 --> 00:10:28,760 Speaker 2: putting small band aids and not looking at the bigger picture, 183 00:10:28,880 --> 00:10:30,840 Speaker 2: which is a fault for both sides. 184 00:10:30,840 --> 00:10:32,320 Speaker 3: And when I say both sides, for those who. 185 00:10:32,240 --> 00:10:34,400 Speaker 2: In the government who are like, oh, women are the problem, 186 00:10:34,440 --> 00:10:35,840 Speaker 2: but you know here you go, let. 187 00:10:35,720 --> 00:10:37,640 Speaker 3: Me help you with daycare. That's it. 188 00:10:38,040 --> 00:10:40,400 Speaker 2: As where feminists are like, all right, we're gonna stop 189 00:10:40,440 --> 00:10:43,280 Speaker 2: having children, We're gonna stop getting with men. 190 00:10:43,400 --> 00:10:44,559 Speaker 3: And I do know one. 191 00:10:45,000 --> 00:10:48,960 Speaker 2: Specific founder of this movement or at least like a 192 00:10:48,960 --> 00:10:51,720 Speaker 2: spokesperson for the movements like just you know, merry women. 193 00:10:52,440 --> 00:10:54,080 Speaker 3: But it's like, yeah, let's do that. 194 00:10:54,080 --> 00:10:58,240 Speaker 2: That makes sense again, but they leave out so many 195 00:10:58,240 --> 00:11:01,360 Speaker 2: more people and so many others, And again knowing that 196 00:11:01,440 --> 00:11:03,679 Speaker 2: movements like this radical movements like this, and I use 197 00:11:03,720 --> 00:11:07,439 Speaker 2: the word radical, which it feels like a double edged 198 00:11:07,440 --> 00:11:10,920 Speaker 2: sword because it's used as a negative in so many 199 00:11:10,960 --> 00:11:14,280 Speaker 2: ways too. Because when I saw radical feminists, it didn't 200 00:11:14,360 --> 00:11:16,960 Speaker 2: hit me in my thought process of being like, oh, 201 00:11:16,960 --> 00:11:20,960 Speaker 2: there turfs, even though that's in the name right in 202 00:11:21,040 --> 00:11:24,240 Speaker 2: my ideals when it came to South Korea, because feminism 203 00:11:24,320 --> 00:11:28,680 Speaker 2: was so not new necessarily but becoming kind of growing 204 00:11:29,080 --> 00:11:32,400 Speaker 2: in the last ten years and has fluctuated much like 205 00:11:32,440 --> 00:11:35,400 Speaker 2: everywhere else that I was hoping that I don't know, 206 00:11:35,840 --> 00:11:37,160 Speaker 2: like it didn't include turfs. 207 00:11:37,440 --> 00:11:39,280 Speaker 3: But I should have known better because. 208 00:11:39,000 --> 00:11:42,640 Speaker 2: We also know that the queer community in places like 209 00:11:42,679 --> 00:11:45,520 Speaker 2: South Korea are not widely accepted. It's still taboo. Is 210 00:11:45,559 --> 00:11:48,480 Speaker 2: still one of those things that you should be a secret. 211 00:11:48,679 --> 00:11:52,880 Speaker 2: They're not gonna outright like crucify you. I guess it's 212 00:11:52,920 --> 00:11:56,080 Speaker 2: a better way to say, although I'm not necessarily true 213 00:11:56,080 --> 00:11:59,440 Speaker 2: that they do. They people get are in violent situations 214 00:11:59,480 --> 00:12:02,760 Speaker 2: and get a used and are taking advantage by the 215 00:12:02,760 --> 00:12:05,040 Speaker 2: system because they're queer, but. 216 00:12:06,480 --> 00:12:08,439 Speaker 3: Knowing that they are just like, shit, no, it's not 217 00:12:08,480 --> 00:12:08,920 Speaker 3: that bad here. 218 00:12:08,960 --> 00:12:10,680 Speaker 2: It's kind of the same thing where they say, no, no, 219 00:12:10,720 --> 00:12:11,920 Speaker 2: there's no racism in South Korea. 220 00:12:11,960 --> 00:12:12,840 Speaker 3: What are you talking about? 221 00:12:12,880 --> 00:12:13,080 Speaker 1: What? 222 00:12:13,200 --> 00:12:15,040 Speaker 2: No, no, no, and then you're like, no, you are 223 00:12:15,200 --> 00:12:19,640 Speaker 2: appropriating and then essentially just stealing content or stealing things 224 00:12:19,640 --> 00:12:22,560 Speaker 2: from the black community of the US because you like 225 00:12:22,600 --> 00:12:24,120 Speaker 2: it so much, but you don't want to give credit 226 00:12:24,160 --> 00:12:24,880 Speaker 2: and you want to make. 227 00:12:24,760 --> 00:12:26,280 Speaker 3: Money like you're stealing. 228 00:12:26,960 --> 00:12:29,240 Speaker 2: But that's you don't think that's racism, which is an 229 00:12:29,240 --> 00:12:37,200 Speaker 2: odd flex just pretending like it doesn't exist, like yeah, no, 230 00:12:37,240 --> 00:12:40,120 Speaker 2: it's still it still does you're being racist. Or when 231 00:12:40,160 --> 00:12:43,199 Speaker 2: you say you don't you don't know about black people, 232 00:12:43,200 --> 00:12:47,079 Speaker 2: and then you do a really bad stereotypes of what 233 00:12:47,120 --> 00:12:50,120 Speaker 2: you think because you saw it from a racist film 234 00:12:50,120 --> 00:12:52,480 Speaker 2: in the US. From the US, it's just so many 235 00:12:52,480 --> 00:12:54,840 Speaker 2: double edged swords. But just because you pretend like it 236 00:12:54,840 --> 00:12:57,600 Speaker 2: doesn't exist there, or they don't talk about it as 237 00:12:57,640 --> 00:12:59,760 Speaker 2: as much as there, that it doesn't exist, then that's 238 00:12:59,800 --> 00:13:02,080 Speaker 2: a problem. And that's kind of that level of what 239 00:13:02,160 --> 00:13:07,000 Speaker 2: I've seen within that four Be movement, which again, according 240 00:13:07,040 --> 00:13:10,520 Speaker 2: to many, many many, is not that big it's again, 241 00:13:10,559 --> 00:13:15,080 Speaker 2: I think it's growing more popular internationally than it is 242 00:13:15,240 --> 00:13:18,400 Speaker 2: anywhere else. And you know, and because many of those 243 00:13:18,440 --> 00:13:22,079 Speaker 2: who understand not to appropriate, they leave the original term 244 00:13:22,520 --> 00:13:26,760 Speaker 2: as is. Although I want to say, take off your 245 00:13:26,760 --> 00:13:31,199 Speaker 2: corset was a movement that was essentially like westernized with 246 00:13:31,280 --> 00:13:34,360 Speaker 2: the whole corsets uh binding women, and that was a 247 00:13:34,400 --> 00:13:38,400 Speaker 2: movement essentially similar to that burning the bra all those 248 00:13:38,679 --> 00:13:39,960 Speaker 2: to the flour bee movements. 249 00:13:40,520 --> 00:13:41,679 Speaker 3: So it's something to remember. 250 00:13:41,760 --> 00:13:45,880 Speaker 2: But I'm saying all this because I think it's important 251 00:13:45,920 --> 00:13:49,800 Speaker 2: that we look at every aspect, because if we ignore 252 00:13:50,920 --> 00:13:53,800 Speaker 2: the bad, then we allow for history to repeat itself 253 00:13:53,840 --> 00:13:57,040 Speaker 2: where it's like we eat our own essentially, and that's 254 00:13:57,160 --> 00:13:58,839 Speaker 2: going to be a problem, and I don't want to 255 00:13:58,880 --> 00:14:03,080 Speaker 2: see that happen. I would love again for equality in 256 00:14:03,120 --> 00:14:06,280 Speaker 2: itself and equity in itself to come through, but also 257 00:14:06,320 --> 00:14:09,080 Speaker 2: to remember who we're fighting for, and it's not just 258 00:14:09,320 --> 00:14:12,400 Speaker 2: us as individuals or our own small community. 259 00:14:12,760 --> 00:14:14,600 Speaker 3: And I'll say, I say small and very like. 260 00:14:14,840 --> 00:14:18,719 Speaker 2: You know, our very niche community as opposed to realizing 261 00:14:18,720 --> 00:14:19,520 Speaker 2: the bigger picture. 262 00:14:20,160 --> 00:14:23,720 Speaker 3: Once again, Yes, yes. 263 00:14:27,160 --> 00:14:28,640 Speaker 1: It's important to talk about this stuff. 264 00:14:29,200 --> 00:14:31,280 Speaker 2: I'll just bring all the bad.
