  • Introduction to Video Content
  • This Is Why We Should Be Sending Women To WarIn this video, comedian Shawn Felipe shares his observations and insights on marriage and gender roles in society. He humorously reflects on his own experiences before and after getting married, highlighting the challenges and the growth it brings out in a person. Felipe describes himself as an anxious person who is always looking forward to the next phase of his life, constantly striving for more.He jokes about the difficulty of marriage, comparing it to math and teasing his Asian background by saying there's no calculator to solve the problems that arise in a relationship. He recalls moments of anger and frustration where he would walk away to avoid saying or doing something regrettable, but his wife's response always brings him back to reality. She advises him to always do what he does best: walk away from his problems. Felipe jokingly refers to his temporary retreats as putting on 'the panties' or 'mantis' (a play on the word panties), implying that men need protection from their emotions.From there, Felipe delves into the idea of women being better suited for war because of their emotional complexity and intuition. He imagines a scenario in which women are sent off to war, leaving the enemy confused and unsure of what's happening. He even humorously suggests using women on PMS as a tactic, proposing that their synchronized cycles could lead to additional teamwork. This notion plays on the stereotype of women being more emotional and unpredictable during their menstrual cycles.Felipe concludes by referencing his father's experience in the Vietnam War and humorously suggests that women could have been a formidable force against the enemy. He imagines the Vietnamese soldiers being shocked and unsure of how to respond to an army of women in the jungle. His comedic exaggeration highlights the power that women possess, both emotionally and physically, and challenges societal norms regarding gender roles in military combat.Overall, Shawn Felipe's comedic take on marriage and women in war offers a lighthearted perspective on gender dynamics and stereotypes. While his jokes may be seen as playful and exaggerated, they also invite reflection on societal expectations and the underutilization of women in certain fields. Through humor, Felipe encourages us to question and reevaluate preconceived notions.
