Key Discussion Topics & Insights
1. Are Women More "Ruthless" Than Men in Relationships?
(Main discussion: 04:26–06:34, 38:44–39:44)
-
LeBron James' comment referencing "ruthless ass bitches who do men dirty" ignites the discussion.
-
Truth argues women are "way more ruthless" than men, citing stories about women setting men up, cheating, or exploiting them post-breakup, including scheming for child support or assets:
- "Women be out here setting dudes up, getting them robbed, getting them killed... Men don't do that to females." [04:49]
- "It's almost like trying to strip a man down to just naked bare knuckles. Like how they do you in jail." [06:01]
-
Azar raises how the divorce system can compound this perception.
-
Both acknowledge men "dog" women too, but they differ on who's more prone to coldness and revenge.
2. Cheating: Who Cheats More, and Who Gets Caught?
(06:34–09:55)
-
Truth claims: "I think women cheat more than men." [07:33]
-
Azar disputes this, noting men are "more sloppy" and get caught more:
- "I have yet to see a whole bunch of women cheating... I think women do cheat and they get away with it a lot more slicker and quicker than men." [09:03]
-
They agree women generally cheat only when emotionally checked out, while for men, temptation and opportunity are larger triggers.
3. Dating Red Flags & Appearance Standards
(12:09–17:54)
-
Truth recounts ending a date because the woman wore a sweatsuit to a fancy spot, stressing the importance of "first impressions" and feeling disrespected:
- "This is what you think of me? I'm taking you to this nice restaurant and you came in a sweatsuit." [14:21]
- "If you on a first date, don't come in a sweat." [15:03]
-
Azar agrees with keeping one's appearance and effort up for their partner.
-
Truth's preference: "If you out with me, you are a representation of me. You're an extension of me." [17:01]
4. Grooming, Standards, and Cultural Shifts
(19:09–22:36)
-
The upkeep women undergo (nails, hair, waxing) versus expectations men have.
-
Azar calls out the unrealistic asks from men who don’t consider the time and cost:
- "It's not as expensive to upkeep a man than it is a woman... your nails are... $170, your hair is $300..." [20:06]
-
Hilarious aside about the Skims "vagina thong" with faux pubic hair, with Azar and Truth baffled but amused at the product’s popularity:
- "Who's buying those items? Like a lot of women did? Because it's sold out, clearly." [22:28]
5. Fake Outfits, Social Media, and AI Companions
(23:10–25:46)
- They riff on how fake hair, nails, even fake nipples and hip enhancers are changing attraction and "fooling men."
- Truth jokes: "I'm about to take me a AI... robotic something. Since everything fake. Might as well go AI." [24:24]
- On relationships with AI, Truth says, "It depends on if it's hittin'." [24:38]
6. Player Culture—Are Women Drawn to Men With Options?
(26:08–32:01, 34:15–36:00)
- Inspired by Joy Taylor's comment about liking men prepared for overnight guests, Truth insists that's just "player" behavior—women are often intrigued by desirable men:
- "I think Joy like that. Cause I think Joy a player too. She a little player." [27:16]
- Azar is skeptical, feeling that seeing overt evidence of other women is a turn-off and makes her feel unsafe.
- Truth describes friends with stocked "walk of shame" closets for their guests—heels, sweats, PJs in all sizes—leaving Azar incredulous.
7. Sex, Intimacy, and Relationship Realities
a) Solo Sex Habits and Relationship Boundaries
(44:01–54:12)
- Harvard study suggests men should ejaculate 20+ times a month to reduce cancer risk. Both hosts question the science, but Truth thinks, "I'm sure it's guys that play with themselves every day." [45:05]
- Azar asks if self-pleasure in a relationship feels disrespectful; Truth says he doesn't mind if he's present:
- "I would like to be present some of them days and just be, like, watching a movie." [46:42]
- Azar: "That's uncomfortable... you want a man to, like, be like, ooh, something..." [47:15]
b) Sex Toys and Turning Each Other On
(51:04–53:48)
- Azar: "I'm a clit simulation person...my toy is for the clitoris... and then, boom, I'm gonna come." [51:41]
- They joke about the male "fleshlight" and walking in on a partner using it, debating if that's crossing a line:
- Azar: "I don't mind if a man does that... but save it for me." [53:48]
- On sex dolls: "If a man has that, you're out of control." [54:38]
c) Can Sex Save a Relationship?
(55:31–56:46)
- Truth: "Sex makes it last longer than it needs to because the issue still didn’t go away." [56:23]
- Azar agrees: sex is a "band-aid", not a real solution.
8. Co-Parenting, Boundaries, and Gifts
(59:20–61:44)
- Should baby mamas/daddies exchange gifts?
- Azar: "I think one thing that I couldn't forgive in a relationship is someone cheating with their baby mom."
- Truth shares he used to get Token Gifts "so the kids can see I'm just being nice" [61:33]—but Azar is firm: boundaries should be established before anyone new is involved, not after.
