WEBVTT - Why Are We Obsessed With The Kardashian’s Sexuality? 🏳️‍🌈

0:00:01.520 --> 0:00:04.440
<v Speaker 1>Flex and Frooms Flex and Fromes. This is the Flex

0:00:04.480 --> 0:00:05.960
<v Speaker 1>and Frooms catch up podcast.

0:00:08.039 --> 0:00:11.960
<v Speaker 2>The Internet cannot stop speculating about the sexuality of the Kardashians,

0:00:12.000 --> 0:00:15.120
<v Speaker 2>and therefore Flex and Frooms, your favorite professional opinion has

0:00:15.320 --> 0:00:17.560
<v Speaker 2>are going to weigh in, add to the void, add

0:00:17.600 --> 0:00:19.640
<v Speaker 2>to the void, add to the speculation.

0:00:20.160 --> 0:00:24.040
<v Speaker 1>So four years Kendall Jenna.

0:00:24.120 --> 0:00:27.840
<v Speaker 2>Yes was being i want to say, accused of being

0:00:27.840 --> 0:00:32.360
<v Speaker 2>a lesbian. The Kardashians broadly never commented on that fact.

0:00:32.479 --> 0:00:36.240
<v Speaker 2>But suddenly, in the storyline of their celebrity Kendall suddenly

0:00:36.280 --> 0:00:40.600
<v Speaker 2>was dating every second basketballer, high profile relationships. This did

0:00:40.640 --> 0:00:43.520
<v Speaker 2>not stop, the chatter, did not quell anything. People thought,

0:00:43.760 --> 0:00:48.479
<v Speaker 2>that's suspicious because we're not seeing we're not seeing the

0:00:48.520 --> 0:00:51.680
<v Speaker 2>before stage of these relationships. They go from not existing

0:00:51.720 --> 0:00:55.200
<v Speaker 2>to being high profile court side done fishing.

0:00:55.560 --> 0:00:56.800
<v Speaker 1>Then there's Kylie Jenner.

0:00:57.000 --> 0:00:59.800
<v Speaker 2>People have also speculated that she is also in fact

0:00:59.840 --> 0:01:02.720
<v Speaker 2>a lesbian or bisexual, and that she's been in a

0:01:02.720 --> 0:01:06.520
<v Speaker 2>long term relationship with her best friend Starsy, who was

0:01:06.560 --> 0:01:09.840
<v Speaker 2>Daty TikToker at the moment, and that Travis Scott was

0:01:09.920 --> 0:01:12.280
<v Speaker 2>for Kylie what she is for him, which is this

0:01:12.360 --> 0:01:16.600
<v Speaker 2>pr relationship that serves both of their business needs. Kylie

0:01:16.640 --> 0:01:21.120
<v Speaker 2>needs to appear ideal in the traditional sense, traditionally sexy,

0:01:21.200 --> 0:01:24.280
<v Speaker 2>traditionally successful, and Travis Scott needed to come up. The

0:01:24.319 --> 0:01:26.720
<v Speaker 2>thing is, when I start digging deep and I do

0:01:26.800 --> 0:01:28.760
<v Speaker 2>my research, goot in my reddits, and I'm like, why

0:01:28.760 --> 0:01:31.880
<v Speaker 2>would the Kardashians lie or why would they hide this?

0:01:32.120 --> 0:01:34.720
<v Speaker 2>It all comes back down to the same conspiracy that

0:01:34.840 --> 0:01:38.319
<v Speaker 2>Chris Jenna doesn't think that queerness is good for branding.

0:01:38.520 --> 0:01:40.959
<v Speaker 1>I haven't even heard of this. Isn't this so like?

0:01:41.040 --> 0:01:44.560
<v Speaker 2>This is so particular to the point where over Valentine's Day,

0:01:44.680 --> 0:01:48.560
<v Speaker 2>Kylie posted a carousel of her and Starcy on staying

0:01:48.600 --> 0:01:50.440
<v Speaker 2>on a basketball court, and the first picture is like

0:01:50.480 --> 0:01:53.440
<v Speaker 2>them smiling, being friends, the second pictures them giggling into

0:01:53.440 --> 0:01:56.520
<v Speaker 2>each other's ear, the third pictures them kissing like mouth

0:01:56.600 --> 0:01:59.040
<v Speaker 2>to mouth, and then the fourth pictures like them giggling again.

0:01:59.240 --> 0:02:01.720
<v Speaker 2>And the comments were like history will say they're just

0:02:01.840 --> 0:02:06.360
<v Speaker 2>friends and two best friends in a room they might kiss.

0:02:06.560 --> 0:02:08.959
<v Speaker 2>But then on the counter people were saying, I don't

0:02:08.960 --> 0:02:11.639
<v Speaker 2>think she's gay. She just gives off strong vibes with

0:02:11.680 --> 0:02:13.440
<v Speaker 2>the straight girl who makes it with their friends for

0:02:13.480 --> 0:02:16.560
<v Speaker 2>guys attention. Someone says, she's clearly not a lesbian, she's

0:02:16.600 --> 0:02:18.640
<v Speaker 2>all about marketing and attention, and you guys buy this

0:02:18.760 --> 0:02:21.560
<v Speaker 2>every time. I don't have strong thoughts in it either way,

0:02:21.600 --> 0:02:24.360
<v Speaker 2>but I do think it's very interesting when people make

0:02:24.480 --> 0:02:28.679
<v Speaker 2>the assumption that the Kardashians just do things for marketing,

0:02:28.919 --> 0:02:31.440
<v Speaker 2>and I'm like, but it works, doesn't it Because we

0:02:31.520 --> 0:02:34.480
<v Speaker 2>can't get their names out of our mouse. So whether

0:02:34.600 --> 0:02:37.760
<v Speaker 2>or not she actually is or she isn't, we shouldn't

0:02:37.800 --> 0:02:42.400
<v Speaker 2>speculate generally. I feel like if we apply the most

0:02:42.440 --> 0:02:46.959
<v Speaker 2>skepticism possible and that everything the Kardashians do is manufactured

0:02:46.960 --> 0:02:50.079
<v Speaker 2>for marketing, genius genius, anthropological, because we.

0:02:50.040 --> 0:02:52.840
<v Speaker 1>Don't stop chit chatting about them, what is it? What

0:02:52.960 --> 0:02:53.360
<v Speaker 1>is it?

0:02:54.560 --> 0:02:56.600
<v Speaker 2>I think it is though they're lucky, there's so many

0:02:56.680 --> 0:02:58.800
<v Speaker 2>of them in that family, that's it shoulder. Then to

0:02:58.840 --> 0:03:01.160
<v Speaker 2>market on your own, you can cross marker between the

0:03:01.200 --> 0:03:04.760
<v Speaker 2>siblings their relationships. We need to start a family group.

0:03:05.440 --> 0:03:07.680
<v Speaker 1>We're twins, yeah, but we need to get more and

0:03:07.760 --> 0:03:09.000
<v Speaker 1>we need to start cross promoting.

0:03:09.560 --> 0:03:11.480
<v Speaker 2>I really think we should still do that idea where

0:03:11.480 --> 0:03:14.000
<v Speaker 2>we find like a group of doppelgangers for each of us,

0:03:14.000 --> 0:03:15.200
<v Speaker 2>and we make them all hang out.

0:03:15.080 --> 0:03:17.760
<v Speaker 1>In a room. Absolutely, focus group, build a line, answer

0:03:17.760 --> 0:03:21.880
