Yeah? See, I think there's something to that. 903 01:01:34,691 --> 01:01:38,569 I think on some level, women don't mind the idea of destroying a man. 904 01:01:38,653 --> 01:01:42,865 Like, I was once walking down the street with my ex-girlfriend, right? 905 01:01:42,949 --> 01:01:47,449 We just walked by these real - four of just-looking guys next to a Camaro. 906 01:01:47,871 --> 01:01:51,165 And, uh, one of 'em sure enough says, “Hey, baby, nice ass.” 907 01:01:51,249 --> 01:01:54,919 So I'm like, "All right.

Know what I mean? 912 01:02:06,139 --> 01:02:09,559 So who just got pushed to the front line on that one? You see what I'm saying? 913 01:02:09,643 --> 01:02:12,520 I mean, women say they hate it if you're all territorial and protective, 914 01:02:12,604 --> 01:02:16,983 but if it suits them, then they'll tell you you're being all unmanly or wimpy. 915 01:02:17,067 --> 01:02:21,567 You know what? I don't think women really wants to destroy men. And if - 916 01:02:21,988 --> 01:02:24,865 Even if they want to, they don't succeed. You know what I mean? 917 01:02:24,950 --> 01:02:27,118 I'm sure even men are destroying women - 918 01:02:27,202 --> 01:02:30,330 or are capable of destroying women much more than women. 919 01:02:30,413 --> 01:02:32,832 Well, anyway - It's depressing.

It's a birth dance. 927 01:03:06,950 --> 01:03:09,035 - A birth dance. - Yeah. 928 01:03:36,938 --> 01:03:39,065 - Should I give her some money? - Yeah. 929 01:03:39,149 --> 01:03:42,235 Everything that's interesting costs a little bit of money. 930 01:03:43,987 --> 01:03:48,487 So a birth dance, huh? Looked a little bit like a mating dance to me. 931 01:03:48,700 --> 01:03:51,661 No, but really, women used it when giving birth. 932 01:03:51,745 --> 01:03:54,205 In some part of the world, they still do it. 933 01:03:54,289 --> 01:03:55,498 - Yeah? - Yeah. 934 01:03:55,582 --> 01:03:58,001 The woman in labor enters a tent, 935 01:03:58,084 --> 01:04:00,920 and the women of her tribe surround her and dance, 936 01:04:01,004 --> 01:04:03,339 and they encourage the birthing woman to dance with them 937 01:04:03,423 --> 01:04:05,716 - so as to make the birth less painful. - Yeah? 938 01:04:05,800 --> 01:04:09,094 And when the baby's born, they all dance in celebration. 939 01:04:09,179 --> 01:04:12,056 Wow. I don't think my mom would've gone for that. 940 01:04:13,058 --> 01:04:15,685 I like the idea of dancing as a common function in life, 941 01:04:15,769 --> 01:04:17,604 something everybody participates in. 942 01:04:17,687 --> 01:04:20,106 Mmm.
