- And welcome back to an unnamed thing on our series

which we're kind of calling ask yourself,

but we don't know really what to call it yet.

- Yeah, so if you have any ideas

what we can call this series,

obviously like some series speak for themselves,

but the questions for series or you know--

- Yeah, brits react to.

- Or slang, but what's this?

- But this is kind of a thing where we

ask ourselves questions that prompt us to

think more about our morals,

think about our opinions about stuff and voice them

and often the best story

or the best thing that comes up in the video

is used as the title.

So maybe you guys can help title this series.

- Life questions, ask yourself

like what could it be?

- Would you rather,

but not really would rather, would it?

- Yes, or would you rather?

We'll find things.

- We'll find a title.

But yeah, we're still testing this format.

So we hope you're enjoying it so far.

On to the first question.

- So if you watched the second episode,

you'll have seen that we ended with this question,

but we didn't answer it.

So remind us what it was.

- Which sex do you think had it easier in our culture?

Have you ever wished you were of the opposite sex?

I'm interested to see what you were thinking of Joel.

'Cause I would be interested to see if you think

females have had it easier.

Depends what you're going for, doesn't it.

- But what's it mean in this?

Because it's changed a lot even in my lifetime.

I think women are now being a lot more

respected than they were back in the day.

Like even when I was born or when I was younger.

- It's still not quite equal, or is it?

- No, it's not.

I don't really think men have been treated

more fairer throughout the centuries.

I still think they probably are treated better now

than women are.

But I still think men are treated really badly

like, it is getting worse for men at the same time.

- In other ways.

- In other ways, so like before it used to

women just used to be the ones

that felt bad about their bodies

because they'd see Photoshop models in bikinis.

But now guys have that all the time.

The amount of guys that are like with six packs

and they're ripped and like,

I feel the pressure that I need to be hairless,

I need to have a hairless torso,

really muscular, really strong.

Like in the exact same way that you feel the need

to have like a perfect hourglass body, hairless as well

and like, do you know what I mean?

- Yeah, when it comes to like body

or like the way you know,

the way that the media wants you to look

or tells you that you should look.

And then there's also just like in the world of jobs

you've got like men

being favored for certain jobs, you know.

Are women less employable because

one day they're gonna have a child

and that they might cost that company

X amount of money because they're like, you know,

some might see that as like a weaker gender almost

because they take time out of their--

- Yeah, it's bad.

- Even though you know,

you shouldn't really see pregnancy as an illness.

But like, there's so many things.

- And women are even paid less.

- Have we got it easier?

Yeah of course, that's the biggest one.

The pay gap, and the gender pay gap.

but I don't know.

Have I ever wished I was of the opposite sex?

I think when it comes to like my menstrual cycle,

I wished I was a man,

so I wouldn't have to deal with this.

And also because emotionally,

females like you know, different hormones isn't it?

And it's like my sort of month is like oh.

Whereas perhaps like males just sort of have like one level

often.

I know that's not for everyone,

but just in my own personal experience of like,

emotionally, yeah, I have wished that I was a man.

Lia wishes she was a man.

- That's the title of this video?

- Why I wish I was a man?

- Yeah.

- I just think life could be a bit simpler, a bit easier.

But you know what?

Embrace being a woman.

- Yeah, exactly.

The only times I've wished being a woman

is just in the way that you would be--

I'd like to experience it, to know what it's like.

- Oh yeah, just be like,

what's it like to be a woman today?

- To like be oh, I've got boobs.

- Oh, what's that?

- But no, but also I think another bad thing,

I do think women have it worse than men by the way but,

another thing that's bad for men is that like

you can't really show emotion.

Like women can display any emotion.

Yeah they might get called out on it

be like, you're dramatic or you're this

which is not right either.

But equally men,

like the amount of suicide in young men is so high.

- Yeah, it's huge.

- Because we're taught we're not allowed to cry

we've got to be big strong men.

And even on this channel,

like the amount of people that like,

"Joel's not a real man.

"He said like this or that."

And I'm like, you're stupid.

- Yeah, like the definitions of what it means to be a man

and not being able to

be emotional.

No wonder male suicide is so much higher

than female suicide because

there's all that pressure to be a man.

- Yeah, exactly.

- Really hard.

- Just those phrases I hate,

like man up or like

oh, you're being such a girl about it and things like that.

That's not good for men or women to hear.

- It's not is it.

There was a company that did a campaign like

like a girl.

And there was like showing girls doing stuff.

But it was like why should we be saying

oh you kick that, like a ball.

- Like a girl, yeah.

- But then all the girls are doing it really well.

- Yeah, they're doing it well.

And I think that's what lots of people might view that

as being like oh, it's so liberal like PC.

But I think I'm not offended if people say, "Man up."

But I just think it perpetuates not a good--

- Of what a man is.

- Well, what a man is or what a women is as well.

'Cause women are far stronger than men

in so many different ways.

- Like pregnancy.

- Yeah, exactly.

- And in other ways, yeah.

- But anyway, yeah so that's that.

- We always get really deep in these.

- I know, I love it.

You want me to read one too?

- Yeah, go on then.

'Cause it's too long anyway for me to read.

'Cause I'm a woman.

(laughter)

Joke, that's far to long.

- Man up. - Man up Lia.

- Oh my gosh, this is so good.

It's so dark, this is like Black Mirror.

So you're given the power to kill people

simply by thinking of that deaths

and twice repeating the word goodbye.

So basically like going, "Goodbye, goodbye."

People would die a natural death--

- I love the example.

- And no one would suspect you.

Are there any situations in which you would use this power?

So basically I could walk down the street,

see someone I don't like,

think about them dying and go, "Goodbye, goodbye."

They'll die a natural death.

No, I won't be implicated at all.

They've have a natural death, would I do it?

Would you do it?

- I'm about to break the rules of this.

Well if you're saying bye to each other like,

goodbye, goodbye. - Goodbye, goodbye.

But you're not thinking of them dying.

- You have to be going, I want you to die.

Goodbye, goodbye.

- I don't think that's the point

about accidentally killing people.

- I think the point is.

- I think it's mostly the moral

of whether you would kill someone

and get away with it.

- The point is, basically the question is, yeah.

Would I kill people if I could get away with killing them?

No, I wouldn't.

There's no one I wanna kill that much.

Well, there's a few.

There's a few people on the not nice list,

but I'm gonna kill them.

It's like when you say to people like,

would you rather this person died immediately

or be in jail?

If someone did something horrible to you and your family,

would you not want them to like--

- Suffer. - Suffer,

but then it's like the tax man is,

we're all paying for that person to suffer?

- I know, I don't know.

- I don't know what the answer is to that.

- But you know what the answer to this one,

I think I'd probably would.

I'd like to think I wouldn't.

But the amount of times where if you just get really angry

or see someone on TV,

not necessarily someone you know.

But like someone like a politician or a celebrity

or someone that you really don't like.

You don't like what they stand for,

you don't know what they say.

I definitely wish politicians dead before,

which is terrible.

But I reckon I would use that power if I could.

I think I would.

I don't think I'd use it regularly.

I wouldn't go around going, goodbye, goodbye.

- Yeah.

Imagine how you'd feel after the first one

knowing you've killed them.

That's nuts.

- It's crazy.

- Someone's dead, and you're like I did that.

- I did that.

- And everyone's like, "How did they die?"

- Yeah, but what if they're a horrible person?

What if they're, like, extremely like racist

and really mean and just really just an evil person?

What if they're a murderer?

What if they're criminals that's in jail

that you do wish was dead?

- It's tough.

I still don't know if we should have the--

- I know.

- You or I should have the power to take that.

It's tough, isn't it.

- I could see my mom watching this be like,

"Joel no.

"We don't get to decide when people die."
