1
Are you ready to immerse yourself in English today?
2
Today, I'm here with my husband, Dan.
3
Hello.
4
And you are invited to our American English kitchen where we're going to be prepping some food for a school function today.
5
And we're going to be chatting about a topic that is slightly controversial, but is going to help expand your English,
6
grow your vocabulary, and help you to enjoy the English learning process.
7
So are you ready?
8
I'm ready.
9
Let's do it.
10
And like always, I have created a free PDF worksheet that you see here over Dan's face.
11
It includes all of today's vocabulary that will appear on the screen that we are about to naturally use in this conversation.
12
And it's going to include a special bonus.
13
This is going to help you understand fast English conversations.
14
It is the audio version of today's entire lesson.
15
This is a great way to test your listening skills.
16
Can you understand us without seeing us?
17
Just listening to the audio as you're walking your dog, doing the dishes, whatever you're doing, that way you can really try to understand fast English.
18
To get this PDF plus bonus listening version, all you need to do is click on the link in the description, enter your name and email address, and voila, just like that,
19
it will land in your email inbox.
20
This is my gift, our gift to you.
21
All right, Dan, are you ready to get chopping?
22
I'm ready, I guess.
23
Okay.
24
So I want to let you know that this topic came up because I wanted to make this conversation with Dan.
25
Yeah, I'm a little scared, honestly.
26
And I said, how about we do it while we're preparing the fruit for the school function?
27
And what did you say?
28
I said, I don't know if I can do two things at once, talk and chop. Because?
29
Because I'm a man.
30
So enter our conversation topic for today while we are chopping and putting together these...
31
Preparing, planning, talking, a conversation, the camera.
32
I can't do these things.
33
This is four things all at once.
34
It's a good test.
35
So our topic today is men versus women.
36
Oh, versus.
37
Yes.
38
Who is better at certain things?
39
We do have knives.
40
We do have knives.
41
It's good.
42
But that's for the food.
43
So while, before we talk about this topic, let's just, I need some skewers, because I'm gonna make some fruit skewers.
44
We're making fruit skewers.
45
I need a lot.
46
Oh.
47
Here's one skewer for you.
48
I'm gonna need like a whole pile right here.
49
Lots of skewers.
50
Alright, I'm just gonna put stuff on them.
51
Do you have any rhyme or reason to how you want it?
52
Uh, well, I was gonna make half all fruits and half fruit and cheese.
53
Okay teenagers by the way okay
54
so um all right there's gonna be stuffing food in their
55
mouth tons of grapes tons of cantaloupe yeah tons of pineapple
56
i need to chop the strawberries still a bunch of strawberries everything's washed
57
and i need to chop the cheese okay chop the cheese i'm gonna just do the fruit skewers first okay
58
and it will be the easiest thing for me to do
59
while i'm i'm going to cut the oranges
60
which will be the easiest thing for you to do at the moment
61
and i'm gonna have to really focus really focus our first thank god the pineapple is pre-cut
62
okay i have four true or false statements about men
63
or women and then we have a lightning round one two three four five things
64
that we're gonna say who is better at blank
65
and we're gonna say it As in men or women or you or me.
66
Yes, men or women.
67
This is all stereotypes.
68
By the way, this is all averages. Who knows?
69
We're just making this up off the cuff.
70
Well, let us know in the comments.
71
It's not scientific fact.
72
If you agree or not.
73
Okay.
74
Statement number one.
75
I'm going to try to do something at the same time as you're talking to me.
76
Statement number one.
77
Men are better at driving.
78
Oh, yeah.
79
Absolutely.
80
Okay.
81
Why?
82
I can contest this, but why do you think so?
83
Well, okay.
84
Most men are better at driving.
85
Okay.
86
Well, why?
87
Because men on average have better spatial awareness.
88
Oh.
89
As far as like directions go.
90
Okay.
91
Also, men are like a little more like less likely to...
92
Man, I'm actually struggling to cut this and think.
93
That's our question number two.
94
Yeah.
95
Yeah, they're like less likely to panic under pressure.
96
Oh, okay.
97
So like, you know, you're driving, there's cars all around you.
98
I think in general, a man is less likely to freak out in that situation.
99
Okay.
100
Certainly I'm a little biased because my dad was the driver in my house
101
and I watched my mom drive and my mom was always like, just panicking all the time.
102
Okay, well, it's all of these answers for us are based on our personal experience.
103
Yeah.
104
So please take it with a grain of salt, whatever we say.
105
Yes. Of course.
106
I'm going to say, in general,
107
men are better drivers, but there's a caveat because I know some stats about this.
108
Oh, you can't bring in stats.
109
Okay, so what I heard, now someone out there might contest this, but- Oh, these lives are not good.
110
Yeah.
111
Oh, fresh.
112
So what I heard is that if we're going by car accident data,
113
men get into more fatal car accidents because they're doing dumb stuff like driving too fast.
114
Yeah.
115
I wanted to take out like teenage men from this equation.
116
We're talking about the whole spectrum here.
117
So men get into more fatal car accidents, but women get into more fender benders because In general, the idea was that women,
118
if women are, if it is true, and I think it is still, are the ones who are caretaking for children.
119
Oh, you're blaming the kids, are you?
120
Have you ever tried to drive with three kids in the car?
121
Yes.
122
And it's hard.
123
There's always someone talking, look at this, I want this.
124
What are you doing?
125
Why are you hitting me?
126
What's going on?
127
There's so much distraction going on.
128
Yeah, I have a superpower called ignore them.
129
So for me to ignore the kids in the car is really hard.
130
So I'm more likely to be distracted, I think.
131
So that's why women get into little fender benders, in my opinion.
132
But if it is just between me and you, you are the better driver.
133
Oh, okay.
134
Thank you.
135
I think you have a good sense of being aware of what's going on around you on the road.
136
despite what's going in your ears.
137
I can't listen to music or a podcast or the kids or a conversation and be a really good driver.
138
I can drive, but I can't be a really good driver because I'm like,
139
my ears are busy listening, comprehending, taking it in.
140
That's so beautiful.
141
Yeah.
142
Do you see these?
143
Wow.
144
And if given the choice, when we drive, you drive and I'm in the passenger seat.
145
It's not a passive job to be in the passenger seat with kids.
146
If you have kids, you know.
147
Yeah.
148
It actually drives me insane to be in the passenger seat while she's driving.
149
Not because she's a bad driver, but because there might be an expression that you've heard of, I'm a backseat driver.
150
Backseat driver?
151
Yes.
152
Yeah.
153
Even though you're not in the backseat.
154
And that just means that I'll notice things on the road and I'll have trouble not pointing it out to her.
155
Watch out.
156
Look over there.
157
Oh, he's emerging.
158
Give them some more space.
159
I think every woman who has driven with a man has dealt with this situation before.
160
Yeah.
161
And it depends.
162
I mean, on a long road trip, I'll tone it down a bit because I'll just be tired or need to take a nap or whatever.
163
Yeah, but when you're in the passenger seat and there's kids in the back.
164
But then there's no break.
165
Yeah, when there's kids in the back.
166
You're caring for the kids.
167
You're passing them snacks.
168
You're passing them a book.
169
You're trying to help them.
170
I'd much rather drive.
171
Yeah, I think, yeah, in general, I think we probably agree on that.
172
I also think men probably just like driving more on average.
173
Yeah.
174
Well, let us know in the comments if you agree.
175
All right.
176
Statement number two, true or false, women are better at- I'm just kidding.
177
Women are better at- I'm okay. At multitasking.
178
Oh yeah, definitely.
179
All these stereotypes are going to be true, aren't they?
180
Well, we'll see.
181
All right, let me think.
182
Multitasking, yeah, I mean, it's very stereotypical.
183
Is it because you can't think of a job?
184
See, now I got, yeah, I finished my...
185
Same time.
186
This is for a special tropical fruit punch.
187
Oh.
188
What was I thinking about again?
189
Multitasking. Can you...
190
No, well, I'm particularly not a very good multitasker.
191
So that doesn't help my case.
192
Okay.
193
Yeah, I think, well, I've heard, I have not scientifically verified this,
194
that women have a little more like cross communication in their brain.
195
You ever heard of this?
196
Okay, I have not.
197
And they sense more on average?
198
sense like like actual senses like smell yeah i've heard
199
that i've heard
200
that that's also why for example there's more going on like
201
all the time in a woman's brain i get more over
202
stimulated easily than you do my hands yes please wash your hands
203
and i move from that spot yeah i get more over stimulated than you do
204
and this might be like a personal preference difference thing
205
but for example when there's music on like when i'm driving
206
or just when there's music on it's hard for me to also have a conversation
207
because there's like two auditory things happening maybe that's just me i'm the same though okay
208
but when it comes to like child care there's a lot of multitasking
209
that happens yeah what like that i think that's where the rubber meets the road, knowing like what every kid is doing at the moment, what I need to be doing,
210
what needs to be done next.
211
Like this is a lot of coordination.
212
I think it's sequential things like that or organizational type stuff.
213
This is person to person as well, I think.
214
But you know, I'm a teacher and that's one thing that I struggle with.
215
I'll forget some little details here or there about our schedule and I'll have to rely on my coworkers.
216
But it seems like the women, there's a lot of women teachers out there they usually know
217
that schedule like in more detail or they'll recall it okay easier okay
218
so maybe i think well i have to like write it on a sticky note
219
and put it on my glasses like right in front of my face is it a nature
220
or nurture skill though to multitask well am i just better at multitasking because all my life
221
I've been expected to juggle multiple things or like I don't think so
222
personally okay thanks for cutting these you're welcome do they make
223
them too small no I have some gigantic strawberries on there some kids gonna be really happy
224
and then some little wait does this relate this multitasking relate to like finding stuff in a refrigerator
225
or is that another question.
226
No. Or is that directions?
227
I did not add that because ...
228
Well, that's a good question though.
229
Let's add that at the end.
230
Okay.
231
Teaser.
232
Okay.
233
The next one is men are more competitive.
234
Yeah, absolutely.
235
Okay.
236
I agree.
237
I think men are more competitive, but why do you think that is- I feel like that's one of the main differences.
238
Okay.
239
Why do you think men are more competitive?
240
Because men compete with each other more often.
241
Yeah, but they compete more often because they want to.
242
Well, they want to compete.
243
So what's the leg?
244
They have to compete.
245
The base.
246
Because they got to impress the ladies, you know what I'm saying?
247
Oh.
248
So you got like all the male birds trying to ruffle their feathers and make the female birds look at them.
249
Yeah.
250
Yeah.
251
Pretty much.
252
Okay.
253
But also like just by experience, you know, any game that I've ever played,
254
in general, men are going a little bit harder.
255
I'm thinking like board games, you know, or card games.
256
I've found more men to care in those circumstances.
257
I have an opinion about this.
258
So I think that this is my personal experience.
259
It might be different for other women,
260
but I think I am always aware of how other people are feeling or like perceiving the event.
261
I don't want to be, I don't want to make them feel uncomfortable.
262
Now, I am competitive in some situations.
263
I'm not the least competitive woman, but I think women want other people to stay happy
264
and be happy and be comfortable and not be too controversial or calling out someone.
265
We're more likely to agree with other people or agree with each other, pat each other on the back.
266
I believe in psychology it's even called agreeable.
267
agreeable yeah yeah i think in general women try to be more women maybe naturally are or
268
nature nurture whatever it is are more agreeable yeah um
269
that said i have met some very competitive women absolutely
270
and also like uh you know students that i teach at a middle school
271
well a elementary and middle school and some of those girls are very competitive Yeah, I think women can absolutely be...
272
Wow, this is quite the pineapple piece.
273
Women can definitely be competitive, but...
274
It's also different things.
275
I think as women post...
276
Women as adults, I would say like...
277
Oh, we're talking about adults.
278
...pretty, I think are different than like teenagers and children as adults.
279
Like we are women now.
280
We're not like ...
281
I feel like ...
282
We are women.
283
Yeah.
284
That's what I always wanted my husband to say.
285
But I feel like ...
286
I could do that nowadays.
287
I'm a woman.
288
There, I said it.
289
It's true.
290
Wow.
291
Well, thanks for coming clean.
292
I feel like adult women are more agreeable than adult men.
293
I think the ...
294
What can you say?
295
The litmus test- It's just the averages.
296
The least agreeable people I've ever met have been men.
297
That's, I think, the litmus test.
298
If you're thinking about a room of 15 people,
299
someone says something, who is the most likely person to disagree with that statement in a room of 15 people?
300
A man.
301
A woman probably has a lot of, or most likely has a lot of ideas, a lot of thoughts, a lot of opinions about it,
302
but the first person to speak up about it and show some negativity is most likely to be a man, in my opinion.
303
I think for me, one-on-one, I could be more less agreeable, approach someone, talk to someone.
304
You're pretty nice.
305
You're pretty nice, honey.
306
She's very nice.
307
Thank you.
308
I think ...
309
Well, we kind of got off topic.
310
Competitive is not mean.
311
Anyway, let's go to the next one.
312
See, now I'm getting into other little details.
313
How can I cut this thing in a in a different way.
314
So the next one is women are more organized.
315
Oh, we kind of talked about this a little bit.
316
Yeah, I think so. On average.
317
Well, it kind of goes back to the multitasking thing. But, I don't know.
318
I feel like this one could be 50-50.
319
Pretty easily.
320
okay and i i don't
321
and i'm just looking at my own personal life i have
322
a lot of students you know there's a lot of odd students at my school odd i hope
323
that they watch this and really love that you say that they're odd
324
they'd appreciate being called odd most of them okay uh and there's some pretty disorganized
325
gals i don't really think that one's gendered
326
that well think about not 12 year olds okay think about a 30 year old woman
327
and a 30 year old man yeah i guess usually it's
328
more likely for a woman to be more organized overall i
329
you just i don't know it could be social too like women tend to like organize the schedule
330
and who's coming over when
331
and life stuff like for me this is also personality i
332
have to go to work to get in an organized mindset like
333
when i'm at home i'm just like i'm at home
334
and then i go to work and i'm like all right now i'm getting in my laser focus
335
but this could just be me yeah well part of this thought for me was
336
statistically males you check the statistics again well this i think
337
this is a kind of a commonly known thing statistically males
338
are more likely to have adhd than women oh is
339
that right and interesting i felt like
340
that was common knowledge maybe it's not okay maybe i'm wrong internet check me out check it out
341
if it's right or not um but i think part of part of adhd is struggling with,
342
what's it called when you're trying to be- Executive function.
343
That's the word, executive function.
344
I've never looked this up before in my life.
345
People like Dan, who might or might not be- I've never been formally diagnosed.
346
Diagnosed with ADHD.
347
Excuse me.
348
I feel like this, the organized element of it, women- I'm moving on to cheese.
349
Okay, you're doing cheese.
350
Is that ADHD?
351
No, that's great.
352
Okay.
353
I feel like women are generally more organized.
354
It could be 50-50, but my gut says.
355
Certainly my experience.
356
I've met more organized women than men.
357
Yeah.
358
Yeah.
359
So how is it that men are more likely to be the CEO of a company?
360
Because you have to be really organized for that, right?
361
Well, a lot of that is assertiveness, too, though.
362
Oh, okay.
363
So maybe it's competitiveness?
364
Yeah, competitive.
365
I mean, guys can be really organized.
366
And like I said, I can even be organized if you put me in the right circumstance.
367
I just have to...
368
It's almost like I can be organized and focused on one thing.
369
ADHD.
370
But I'm more likely to miss the big picture or miss the other little details.
371
Yeah.
372
I think that's exactly what I was saying.
373
You can be really organized with one focus thing and maybe that's- Cheers.
374
Cue perfect timing.
375
Oh, I just ...
376
but I like the moment
377
that you say something it's almost like I have this you
378
know in the moment I say something is say anything me
379
the moment you say anything personally you know how in the movie a beautiful mind
380
or like in any kind of like uh criminal detective movie or tv show they have like a clear board.
381
It's a meme at this point.
382
All the math and all the things.
383
Immediately, 30 things come to my mind.
384
And I start organizing.
385
We have to do this first and this second and this second.
386
And I have to tone down that voice in my head and just like, okay, are we just chatting about this?
387
Or is it serious?
388
Because my brain already jumped to 30 steps ahead.
389
Yeah.
390
And sometimes that's good, but sometimes it's not.
391
I think it can be helpful for like getting stuff done, but it's not- Well, that's why you marry people like me.
392
Marry people like me.
393
Married a person like me.
394
Yeah.
395
I think it's not helpful for reflection.
396
So I'm trying to get better at reflection.
397
Anyway, that's my personal stuff.
398
It's not good for reflection, really?
399
Yeah, because I don't spend time.
400
I'm just organizing and doing and doing and organizing, and I'm not thinking.
401
This is for cheese.
402
That's for little cheese cubes.
403
I organize those plates.
404
I'm just going to throw the cheese on here for now.
405
Okay.
406
So now we have a little lightning round.
407
Are you ready?
408
ready okay the statement is who is better at
409
and i'm going to say the thing and then in three you are me
410
or is it just men and women we're going to say men
411
or women on three okay okay who is better at cutting
412
the cheese who's better at saving money three two one women i don't i have no idea
413
saving money yeah these are these ones are not so black and white
414
so some of these are they're less stereotypical well stereotypically i feel like women are the one who spend the money
415
yeah you're a you are a uniquely cheap person my dear
416
well it's not just saving money though like memes about ladies shopping and stuff yes but i think in reality women
417
because of the organization and the planning ahead, women have more, if we're thinking about like the 30-year-old woman,
418
just as like in the middle of life, there's still a lot of life ahead.
419
She has some experience, but not a lot of experience.
420
Like that's why I'm just saying 30-year-old.
421
I think the average 30-year-old woman is better than the average 30-year-old man at planning for the future financially
422
and having a little nod of fear of like, oh, we need to save money.
423
Oh, we need to have some security.
424
Oh, I need to do this.
425
That's my opinion.
426
I could be very wrong.
427
Stereotypically, you know, and it's a stereotype, but, you know, men make the budgets and then women spend it.
428
I would say, okay, this is maybe based on like my friends.
429
The women I know buy the necessary items and the occasional unnecessary items.
430
but men splurge on like big things
431
that could possibly waste a lot of money like that fancy car
432
or the whatever i've certainly seen that yeah
433
so i think in the in that way that's like how men
434
and women spend differently like women make a lot of those smaller purchases out of necessity, maybe out of fun, go buy a shirt every now and then.
435
But men might be more likely to waste big amounts of money.
436
Yeah.
437
Maybe.
438
I mean, probably.
439
I don't know.
440
I'm on the internet saying this now.
441
A man is more likely to buy a boat or a motorcycle or a car even.
442
I know in our household, it's certainly true that I'm the spender.
443
Yeah.
444
Even so, you're not.
445
But I'm not a big...
446
You're not very spendy.
447
Huge spender like some people.
448
Yeah.
449
I think you're...
450
And I'm always looking for the deal and all that.
451
Compared to me, you're a spender, but that's not hard.
452
Vanessa is ultimate frugal.
453
I'm pretty frugal.
454
Okay.
455
The next one.
456
Who is better at expressing emotions?
457
Three, two, one.
458
Women.
459
Women.
460
Okay.
461
So this one was kind of stereotypical.
462
Why do you think it is that women are better at expressing emotions?
463
Well, I think that women seek validation of their emotions more than men do.
464
From other women?
465
Women and their partner.
466
Okay.
467
But women as well.
468
I'm pretty sure I even recently I looked this up because I had to teach something for middle school.
469
and women way more go to each other and talk about their feelings.
470
Men don't.
471
We just, you know, go and hang out with the boys.
472
Do you think that is a learned behavior?
473
I mean, I'm sure it partly is, but I also feel like it's probably somewhat nature for a man to be more,
474
suppressed with his emotions because you don't want to be too like evolutionarily
475
if we're talking about like 50,000 years ago for humans you
476
don't want to be too forthright about like all your feelings
477
you don't want to look sensitive you know all this kind of stuff and
478
that is certainly like around men like men don't want to
479
look sensitive around each other a lot of times it's kind of changing nowadays
480
but yeah I'd say that's probably the main tension nowadays is
481
that women want men to know about how to validate their emotions how to express their emotions all of
482
that like that's a value that women are seeking now in a man.
483
And that's like a big evolutionary change, I think, or like cultural shift, I think. Who knows?
484
A hundred years from now, it might be very different.
485
Yeah.
486
I kind of, you know, part of me does believe a little bit men don't have to as much as women think they do.
487
But, you know, I've certainly gotten some benefit from, you know, going to therapy and letting stuff out and whatnot.
488
Like that's a value.
489
I just don't think like day to day, I don't think a man seeks it out or wants to or needs to.
490
I have heard statistic here.
491
It didn't just come from my brain.
492
I read that after a breakup, statistically, it's harder for men because women,
493
when they have something difficult going on in their lives, will reach out to friends and talk to friends and process it more.
494
And men have to culturally, nature, nurture, I don't know, feel like they have to just be okay.
495
I'm fine.
496
I'm fine.
497
But really, they're not fine.
498
And there is something therapeutic in being sad with someone else or like getting it out a little bit, you know?
499
Yeah.
500
And the statistic...
501
The guy usually has like one friend that he can talk to.
502
I mean, one friend is great.
503
I remember one particular time in my life, though, I had no friends.
504
Aww. That sounds really pitiful.
505
Yeah.
506
I had just moved to a new city, and we broke up, and that was terrible.
507
So you didn't even have me when we were dating?
508
Yeah.
509
Well, yeah, that's a long story.
510
Yes.
511
Years ago.
512
Saga.
513
Decades ago.
514
Well, also, I think the clearest statistic is that the adult topic here,
515
the suicide rate is highest for men.
516
And maybe that's similar.
517
I don't know if this is just me hypothesizing, but men don't have that outlet when they're going through hard times.
518
they might not have that like vulnerability with other men to be able to decompress and like
519
even say I'm having a hard time like to be able to not be a man
520
and I'm fine like if you can
521
I think that can be vulnerable with someone
522
but I also think men are more likely to do like
523
a drastic thing well maybe that's the competitive part like the risk-taking okay well anyways let's go to the next one.
524
This video is getting a little longer than I thought.
525
Okay.
526
The next one is who is better at fixing things?
527
Fixing things?
528
Physical things.
529
Physical things.
530
The faucet's broken.
531
A man.
532
I agree.
533
So I think women can do it.
534
That's a stereotype for a reason.
535
Yeah.
536
I think women can do it. Can they? Can they?
537
I haven't seen you try.
538
Not very often.
539
So I think certain things, stereotypically, women fix.
540
I think women fix problems all the time very well.
541
They certainly try to fix people, don't they?
542
Daniel.
543
But when it comes to like the faucet or something, if there's a man available to fix it, like if you're married to somebody,
544
you're going to hope or want him to fix it.
545
Woman wants the man to fix it.
546
But let's be real.
547
I know plenty of single women who do everything and fix everything.
548
So I feel like women's skill is rising to the occasion.
549
You gave birth.
550
You got a baby.
551
You're healing.
552
You got to feed that baby.
553
You do it.
554
Like you're going to push through ultimate difficulty and do it.
555
And I think if you weren't here, yeah, I'd fix the faucet.
556
Like I would do those things.
557
But I like delegating to you and having you do those things.
558
Okay.
559
I don't want to doubt you.
560
Don't doubt.
561
I finished all my skewers.
562
But wait, I didn't give my opinion there.
563
Oh, really? go ahead men okay uh but i think there's as far as like differences between men and women
564
a lot of this has to do with interest as well this is a good pointer
565
um one big divergence is the interest in people versus things
566
and men tend to be interested in things yeah devices yeah
567
uh stuff yeah commodities economics more than women on average on
568
that and that i've certainly seen that with fixing stuff or being into the minutia of speakers for example
569
music speakers uh i don't know it's like there's a whole subculture of men doing these things and
570
And it's not that a woman can't be there, but she's got to like know her stuff to be like, oh This girl knows her stuff.
571
I feel like a woman might have to they almost have
572
to prove themselves more exactly would feel like she has to prove Herself in that man's sphere
573
Just as much as like you in the teaching sphere might
574
feel like you have to prove yourself as a man Like there's not many men teachers if I was teaching kindergarten.
575
Yeah.
576
Yeah Well, you were teaching elementary school last year.
577
It's true.
578
Like, that's considered a more typically female job.
579
Yeah.
580
But I feel like you kind of straddle the line pretty well.
581
I think sometimes it's the same with sports as well.
582
I do remember I played hockey.
583
And as long as, like, a girl doesn't have, like, a chip on her shoulder about it, and they're just like, yeah, I'm playing the game as best I can, and they, like, know something,
584
guys are usually going to be like yeah come on in here let's do it you know
585
because they just don't want they don't want like drama they don't want extra drama
586
but men amongst each other this is my experience okay well
587
well we might get some we accept women as long as
588
they don't bring their in the man-dominated spheres like you know like
589
because i was on a hockey team mm-hmm it didn't explicitly say a woman can't be there
590
but no women joined there was a woman though right yeah no i'm saying
591
that there was and
592
that nobody said anything about it first of all i think this person was transgender
593
so they didn't explicitly say this
594
but you know she didn't make a fuss about being a woman there like you guys aren't respecting me enough
595
because i'm a woman like she just was playing the game
596
right just like there to do the thing it's not about gender it's doing her best doing anything okay um
597
and she was good enough to hang
598
that helps you know you don't want to be like i can't touch this person
599
yeah bump them yeah like they have to be able to play on the same with the same rules
600
and the same things if you're playing same with men
601
when they're certainly women it helps
602
that it was it wasn't a it was a no checking
603
league you know we weren't actually checking means hitting each other
604
and stuff okay so we were talking about fixing things
605
and we got a little off track which is fine
606
but um i have i chopped a new skewered that's what it turned into but we didn't put any of the
607
cheese on the skewers i didn't i was just skewering okay i have two more
608
and we're going to keep them really fast
609
because this lesson is getting very long okay who is better
610
at oh wait you have these two good there's more to
611
be made who is better at keeping things clean three two one
612
uh i want to say my opinion about this first i think women are better at keeping things clean
613
because women are really good at noticing details like everybody who is married has experienced this I guarantee it 100%
614
that a woman can walk into a room and a man can walk into a room and they will notice different things.
615
Like the counter is a mess.
616
I will clock that.
617
I'll notice that.
618
But Dan might not notice it.
619
But once you know like, oh, Vanessa really cares about the counter being clean, then, you know, you'll clean it and take care of it and whatnot.
620
But I notice things and I think women notice stuff like the focus,
621
the multitasking of things and like what's going on is really strong for women.
622
And I feel like for me, when our house is clean, I feel so good.
623
There's like something deep within my soul that feels good, cleansed, like relieved relieved.
624
There's a weight that's off of my shoulders.
625
Anyway, that's how I feel.
626
Why do you think women are better at keeping things clean?
627
Why do I think they are?
628
Yeah.
629
Oh man, I don't know.
630
Big question.
631
I just agree with you.
632
In this case, you know, there might have something to do with,
633
you know, women caring more about their home environments like having a more holistic scale
634
or a sense about it okay maybe can i have some
635
more pineapple i'm done um okay well let's do the last
636
one are you ready the last one what piece of cheese
637
oh you got cheese on there good for you okay the last one is slightly more controversial uh-oh okay Okay.
638
Who is better at handling stress?
639
Three, two, one.
640
Men.
641
Women?
642
Okay.
643
I feel like I'm not sure about this.
644
Well, it depends on the stress.
645
I think that's the answer.
646
Yeah.
647
Why do you think men?
648
Like, what's the situation where you- Well, I already mentioned the car situation.
649
Yeah.
650
Yeah.
651
High stress environments, men tend to work in those like his job.
652
So in the workplace?
653
Climbing, especially like physical risk.
654
I think a man is much more likely to disregard the danger in front of them.
655
You know, like climbing radio towers or whatever, fixing light bulbs and stuff like that.
656
Plumbers, getting down dirty in the muck, in the mud, in the mire.
657
All that stuff.
658
Which is a form of stress.
659
Mm-hmm. And I don't know.
660
I feel like women get stressed more in general.
661
They at least emote their stress more.
662
I think that's it.
663
I think that the stress, I mean, obviously by what I said about the suicide rate, men are going to keep it in, which is not good.
664
Don't do that.
665
Don't forget the cheese.
666
Cheese.
667
One piece of cheese.
668
You're going to set the cheese right in front of you.
669
Okay.
670
You want to put it right there?
671
I'll put this.
672
But I think that there are certain things that me and my mom friends,
673
for example, were like, our dudes would never be able to handle this.
674
And it's a lot of...
675
A lot to die home and child care and peopling like dealing with
676
uh it's the multitasking really of like okay we got a
677
birthday party on saturday i need to get a present for
678
that kid i need to make sure
679
that everyone is ready by blah blah blah time
680
so like i'm like gaming it out in my head you know
681
so like that that helps me deal with stress by being organized
682
and like i guess this is a more individualistic thing than a gendered thing
683
dealing with stress yeah well i don't know i think i made my case pretty well
684
men i we're talking about different things here i think we are talking about different things
685
because for example i have a plus like i don't like ladies come home
686
and like they said they might have dealt with the thing better.
687
They still come home stressed, right?
688
Yeah.
689
I mean, maybe- They're still like, I just did 5,000 things today.
690
Yeah, but then they're still going to make dinner and still going to blah, blah, blah, and still going to pick up the kids from soccer
691
and do all those things and push through instead of checking out.
692
I'm not saying they're strong.
693
I think the stereotype is that men would check out and be like, I'm just going to sit on my phone.
694
I've had too much going on.
695
I need a break.
696
That could be possible.
697
And women are like, I got like, I'm coordinating all the things still.
698
And I still worked all day.
699
And I did all this stuff.
700
And like, maybe that's multitasking.
701
I don't know.
702
These topics overlap.
703
Okay, I'm going to finish this skewer.
704
And then I think before we go, we need a am I overdoing the skewer?
705
A handshake.
706
We need a handshake.
707
We need a handshake.
708
A men and women coming together for the better, greater good of humanity.
709
Wow.
710
Are you ready?
711
Yeah.
712
Good job.
713

Aussprache, auf die du achten solltest
Der Sprecher verwendet 230 Kurzformen und abgeschwächte Formen, zum Beispiel I'm, don't, you're. Sprich sie in der kurzen Form, so wie du sie hörst.
- Die „th“-Laute: feather /ˈfɛðə/, therapeutic /ˌθɛɹ.əˈpjuː.tɪk/, mathematics /mæθ(.ə)ˈmæt.ɪks/
- Die Laute „sh“ und „zh“: emotion /ɪˈməʊ.ʃən/, handshake /ˈhæn(d)ˌʃeɪk/, reflection /ɹɪˈflɛkʃən/, spatial /ˈspeɪ.ʃəl/, distraction /dɪsˈtɹæk.ʃən/
- Lange Wörter – auf die Betonung achten: stereotype /ˈstɛ.ɹi.əˌtaɪp/, vocabulary /vəˈkæb.jə.lə.ɹi/, stereotypical /ˌstɛɹ.iː.əˈtɪp.ɪ.kəl/, statistically /stəˈtɪs.tɪ.kə.li/, statistical /stəˈtɪs.tɪ.kəl/
Laute, die Deutschsprachigen schwerfallen:
- /w/ — mit runden Lippen, nicht wie das deutsche „w“ (/v/): voilà /(v)wɑˈlɑ/, whatnot /ˈwʌt.nɑt/, anyways /ˈɛn.iˌweɪz/, equation /ɪˈkweɪ.ʒən/, workplace /ˈwɝkˌpleɪs/
- Stimmhafter Auslaut — /b/, /d/, /g/, /z/, /v/ am Wortende nicht verhärten: organize /ˈɔɹɡənaɪz/, nowadays /ˈnaʊ.ə.deɪz/, relieve /ɹɪˈliːv/, anyways /ˈɛn.iˌweɪz/, emerge /ɪˈmɝd͡ʒ/
- /æ/ — offener als „ä“: vocabulary /vəˈkæb.jə.lə.ɹi/, handshake /ˈhæn(d)ˌʃeɪk/, overlap /ˌəʊvəˈlæp/, distract /dɪˈstɹækt/, distraction /dɪsˈtɹæk.ʃən/

Was ist die Shadowing-Technik?
Shadowing ist eine wissenschaftlich fundierte Sprachlerntechnik, die ursprünglich für die professionelle Dolmetscherausbildung entwickelt und durch den Polyglotten Dr. Alexander Arguelles populär gemacht wurde. Die Methode ist einfach aber wirkungsvoll: Du hörst englisches Audio von Muttersprachlern und wiederholst es sofort laut — wie ein Schatten, der dem Sprecher mit nur 1–2 Sekunden Verzögerung folgt. Anders als passives Hören oder Grammatikübungen zwingt Shadowing dein Gehirn und deine Mundmuskulatur, gleichzeitig echte Sprachmuster zu verarbeiten und zu reproduzieren. Studien zeigen, dass es Aussprachegenauigkeit, Intonation, Rhythmus, verbundene Sprache, Hörverständnis und Sprechflüssigkeit signifikant verbessert — was es zu einer der effektivsten Methoden für die IELTS Speaking-Vorbereitung und reale englische Kommunikation macht.
