We have now started a new show we are excited about called "How Did We Get Here?" We will discuss many topics, and have you "The People" on to hear your stories. Please watch, comment, share and subscribe!
In this live test on Riverside.fm, Skeens and Jay discuss the love of the lie that women sometimes fall in. With the recent internet uproar over Derrick Jaxn, we wondered why women would believe something so obviously too good to be true. But I think it goes back into some of the commentary that we here from Kevin Samuels... Women want a fairytale and will do anything to believe it past better judgement and obvious signs. Women how often have you found yourself in a situation that you knew was wrong yet you stayed and continued to willingly believe the lie. Overall I think Derrick Jaxn physically gave women what they wanted in a "tall, dark, and handsome" attractive man... And then on top of that he was saying everything they wanted to hear and was usually absolving women of accountability and responsibility in the relationship. Again, as Kevin Samuels has highlighted most of us fall somewhere towards the middle in society by way of looks and finance. But, women often who are average have an expectation to get an outlier 20,10, 1 percentile type guy and that guys has ALL the options and ALL the leverage. I would shoot low and say Derrick Jaxn's audience was probably 80% women and this love on delusion made him a 6 figure a month earner. Are we here to kill the brother? No. But it is a cautionary lesson worth evaluating and carrying it further to see how this thinking impacts us in other relationships in life by way of unrealistic improper expectations. We pray that Derrick and his wife can make the true adjustments for a healthy relationship.
