Do men actually like women — or just the benefits that come with them?
Live from Memphis, the Tonight’s Conversation crew dives into one of the spiciest debates yet. We unpack why men often seek validation from their boys before their partners, what it really means when women aren’t seen as “safe spaces,” and how scripture like the “weaker vessel” verse gets misused in relationships.
Live from Memphis, Tonight’s Conversation tackles one of the most explosive questions yet: do men even like women, or do they just want validation from other men? The panel debates why so many men value the opinions of their boys over the counsel of their partners, and whether masculinity has become more about competition than connection. The conversation digs into why some men don’t see women as intellectual equals, how vulnerability can be weaponized in relationships, and why trust and emotional safety matter more than looks.
The debate gets heated as the crew calls out the men who flex cars, clothes, and bottle service to impress other men, and the women who weaponize a man’s vulnerability when things get messy. From the toxic grip of the Red Pill community to the reality of seeking healthy male vs. female counsel, this episode is raw, messy, and unfiltered. If you’ve ever questioned whether men actually like women beyond sex and convenience, this Memphis show will shake the table.
