Hello, hello, and
Unknown:welcome to the Borealis experience. I'm your host
Unknown:Aurora, and very happy to be spending some time with you
Unknown:today. Today might not be as relaxing, as usual, but it's
Unknown:just a topic I'm burning to talk about. It is about the sexual
Unknown:consent app, the debate, the discussion that is going on
Unknown:right now in the UK and the US. A couple women came out and
Unknown:yeah, pointed out guys that were mis conducting, mistreating
Unknown:harassing women themselves. Sorry. And now the government is
Unknown:trying to come up with ideas and stuff. And there's the talk
Unknown:about a consensual sex app, where when you go on a date, and
Unknown:it gets a little more intimate, you just click on this app and
Unknown:consent. And yeah, then go about your business. Of course, both
Unknown:parties do that. And I think this is absolutely dramatic,
Unknown:too, to know that we reached a point us heterosexuals that
Unknown:where we need an app to consent, and to make sure that we both
Unknown:want the same. I don't know how we got there. But I should know
Unknown:that we definitely need to communicate better and be on the
Unknown:same page more often, if not all the time. I think this problem
Unknown:that society is facing right now will not be solved with good old
Unknown:feminism. I think this is not a problem between men and women, I
Unknown:think it's a problem of power. And give me a second here it is
Unknown:a problem between men and women. But there's so many men out
Unknown:there who have good intentions, a good heart who are shy and
Unknown:humble. And we can put these guys into the same box, then
Unknown:these monsters who keep Miss Miss guiding people or misusing
Unknown:their power. Feminism was good in the 70s was good to a certain
Unknown:point. And it's still very, very good to get things down when it
Unknown:comes to equality. But when it comes to sexual harassment, we
Unknown:have to stick together after the me to movement, there were so
Unknown:many guys that came out and showed up for us women, and
Unknown:showed their support and their love and their respect and
Unknown:communicated it. And it was so beautiful to see. And those same
Unknown:man, we as women have to protect here and have to Yeah, set
Unknown:apart. Those are the guys that we need to conquer these other
Unknown:guys. And then I have a question for women like how can it be
Unknown:that we give those guys those aggressive bullies so much
Unknown:power? I think we still are guilty to some degree to fall
Unknown:for the asshole at times or to be too shy to set boundaries.
Unknown:And this is on our part we can learn to call those people out
Unknown:who behave in an aggressive way in in a sexually aggressive way.
Unknown:We have to learn how to communicate boundaries and how
Unknown:to be firm with them. And then we have to do everything to also
Unknown:be listened to and less of course again as up to the judge
Unknown:up to society. But they've been to many cases where women audio
Unknown:say that in English. They said something how And, and never
Unknown:anything happened.
Unknown:And then there's too many women out there who were raped, and
Unknown:decided to not speak out because they knew that it's not going to
Unknown:be a cheap piece of cheesecake to get out and talk about it and
Unknown:they're not going to feel supported and treated well, they
Unknown:will be questioned, and they will be put in a corner and
Unknown:mistreated mentally, even more and emotionally even more. So it
Unknown:is a very tough topic to address, I get that. But I think
Unknown:my message here is that we cannot fight that fight on our
Unknown:own. As women we need good man. If we want to talk about good
Unknown:and bad here, we need the good supportive, supportive men to
Unknown:fight this fight, we have to see that those women that were out
Unknown:there fighting for equality, standing up for feminism, they
Unknown:had babies, and those babies were not only girls that were
Unknown:guys too, and they raised those guys in a very good way. And
Unknown:there's more women out there who raise their boys in a very good
Unknown:way they respect women growing up, and they know how to
Unknown:communicate and know how to read what a woman wants and needs. So
Unknown:we have to, again, protect these men and take them by the hand
Unknown:and do this together. I hope this all makes sense to you.
Unknown:It's a very short episode today, because it's an intense topic.
Unknown:And I don't want to disturb you too much. I just wanted to put
Unknown:that out there. And hope you have a wonderful rest of your
Unknown:day. We need each other. I'm all for unity and good
Unknown:communication. And I'm very excited to be posting a new
Unknown:episode with Shaun Dustin soon, where we talk about stuff that
Unknown:we're not proud of we talk about abusive behavior, imperative
Unknown:behavior, and how we are supporting each other and
Unknown:helping each other out and can be better people now. And the
Unknown:toughest, toughest part for both of us was the day to realize
Unknown:that we were actually abuser. So maybe you can maybe you can see
Unknown:this, the opposite side and it's said to well take good care of
Unknown:yourself. And I'll be out there tomorrow. Again.
