• 0:02
  Speaker 1: Do you agree, Skip?
• 0:03
  Speaker 2: Do you think they don't need us anymore because they're providers?
• 0:07
  Speaker 3: No, I still, I think, you know, you have a
• 0:10
  Speaker 3: planet full of women.
• 0:11
  Speaker 2: Let's see how long that lasts.
• 0:13
  Speaker 1: You still need a man. You still need a man.
• 0:15
  Speaker 2: Well, I remember on the Warriors, remember the female game
• 0:19
  Speaker 2: called the Lezzies?
• 0:20
  Speaker 4: Remember that?
• 0:21
  Speaker 5: Yes.
• 0:21
  Speaker 6: Oh, my God.
• 0:22
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 0:28
  Speaker 6: Oh, my goodness.
• 0:28
  Speaker 2: See, even Wonder Woman, she didn't need a man, but
• 0:30
  Speaker 2: she let that out to get her some. I know
• 0:32
  Speaker 2: that happened.
• 0:33
  Speaker 7: That's what I'm saying. I think there's a difference between
• 0:35
  Speaker 7: need and want. Women want men. Absolutely women want men.
• 0:40
  Speaker 7: Not all women, but many women want men. And I
• 0:44
  Speaker 7: think when men hear.
• 0:45
  Speaker 2: That, they immediately go to.
• 0:47
  Speaker 7: the sex part or, you know, relationships and all of that.
• 0:50
  Speaker 7: And as if we're saying something, you know, mean, it's
• 0:53
  Speaker 7: not true. It just simply means that, you know, we
• 0:55
  Speaker 7: can stand on our own two feet, but we love
• 0:58
  Speaker 7: having men in our lives.
• 1:00
  Speaker 3: Absolutely.
• 1:00
  Speaker 8: Right.
• 1:01
  Speaker 2: Stand on your own two feet.
• 1:02
  Speaker 5: All right.
• 1:03
  Speaker 2: So let's get to some of you guys. Let's hear
• 1:09
  Speaker 2: some of you other people out there. We need to
• 1:11
  Speaker 2: hear what you guys are saying. Um, So is this
• 1:13
  Speaker 2: chick right? Do you guys not need me anymore because
• 1:17
  Speaker 2: you're the providers now?
• 1:19
  Speaker 9: 877-242-2426.
• 1:19
  Speaker 2: Get to your calls in a bit. It's the D.L.
• 1:22
  Speaker 2: Hughley Show.
• 1:23
  Speaker 5: Junius, what do you think?
• 1:24
  Speaker 2: Do broads still need us? Are we still necessary?
• 1:27
  Speaker 4: Indubitably. I'm sure that over the history of men and
• 1:31
  Speaker 4: women in America and the world, There have been arranged marriages.
• 1:36
  Speaker 4: There's been forced marriages. But then there's been traditional marriages.
• 1:40
  Speaker 2: Shotgun marriages and the like.
• 1:42
  Speaker 4: But there's love marriages also. So, yeah, I think they
• 1:46
  Speaker 4: still do. There's certain, like Jasmine said, the relationships has
• 1:50
  Speaker 4: evolved over the millennia. And so now they don't need
• 1:54
  Speaker 4: us as a provider or the sole provider, but they're
• 1:57
  Speaker 4: looking for an equal partner.
• 2:00
  Speaker 8: Equal?
• 2:01
  Speaker 4: Wait a minute.
• 2:01
  Speaker 5: Come on, man.
• 2:04
  Speaker 7: And a little Saturday night special every.
• 2:08
  Speaker 6: Year.
• 2:08
  Speaker 3: Just Saturday.
• 2:09
  Speaker 7: Don't be coming around on Wednesday and Thursday.
• 2:12
  Speaker 5: Just Saturday.
• 2:15
  Speaker 2: Right after I take my weekly bath.
• 2:17
  Speaker 7: Right.
• 2:20
  Speaker 4: Having to coincide on a Saturday.
• 2:22
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm just.
• 2:23
  Speaker 5: I just think it's silly.
• 2:25
  Speaker 2: I think it's silly, but I'll let Skip wrote it down.
• 2:28
  Speaker 2: So I'm giving it... I want to give it a
• 2:30
  Speaker 2: short shift.
• 2:30
  Speaker 5: So I'm going.
• 2:32
  Speaker 2: Listen, you guys, do you think that chicks still need
• 2:34
  Speaker 2: us these days?
• 2:35
  Speaker 9: 877-242-2426.
• 2:36
  Speaker 2: It's the D.L. Hughley Show.
• 2:39
  Speaker 5: Tune in to the D.L.
• 2:41
  Speaker 4: Hughley Show and make your voice heard.
• 2:43
  Speaker 5: Today's black women, they're not women anymore.
• 2:46
  Speaker 8: They're ratchet, disrespectful.
• 2:49
  Speaker 5: And there's money harvest.
• 2:51
  Speaker 9: Hey, I'm a light, complex young lady, and I want
• 2:55
  Speaker 9: nothing lighter than me. I want chocolate, okay?
• 2:58
  Speaker 3: You know, there was more unity in the 70s and
• 3:00
  Speaker 3: the late 60s.
• 3:01
  Speaker 2: You know, than there will ever be again when it
• 3:03
  Speaker 2: comes to black people, in my opinion.
• 3:05
  Speaker 1: Call 1-877-242-2426 and let us know what you think about
• 3:10
  Speaker 1: today's topic.
• 3:11
  Speaker 2: We're going right to the phones.
• 3:13
  Speaker 1: What do you think?
• 3:14
  Speaker 10: Oh, I just think that's a ridiculous thing to say.
• 3:16
  Speaker 10: Of course, men are still needed. I'm not going to
• 3:20
  Speaker 10: go down the list of reasons why men are needed.
• 3:23
  Speaker 10: But I think what they have to ask themselves is,
• 3:26
  Speaker 10: do you want to be needed or do you want
• 3:28
  Speaker 10: to be wanted? Because I could see the frustration in
• 3:31
  Speaker 10: a man's face if a woman only got him around
• 3:34
  Speaker 10: if he's needed. So I just know I would want
• 3:38
  Speaker 10: to be wanted instead of needed.
• 3:41
  Speaker 8: My grandmother actually made more than my grandfather. And it
• 3:44
  Speaker 8: all depends on the circumstances of the relationship. My grandfather
• 3:48
  Speaker 8: didn't dislike or go to resent my grandmother. My grandmother
• 3:54
  Speaker 8: did not go to resent my grandfather. They just put
• 3:57
  Speaker 8: their heads down and worked together and supported the family
• 4:00
  Speaker 8: all together. So, in some cases, and nowadays, yes, William will,
• 4:06
  Speaker 8: to a degree, emasculate the man for making less than her,
• 4:10
  Speaker 8: or if she has to pull more weight than he does.
• 4:13
  Speaker 8: But that depends on the relationship and how they feel
• 4:16
  Speaker 8: about each other.
• 4:17
  Speaker 6: No, you don't need anyone, but it's always great to
• 4:20
  Speaker 6: have someone because you need to have someone to balance
• 4:24
  Speaker 6: the work, the children. So even if you make more
• 4:27
  Speaker 6: money than the man does, that doesn't mean that he's
• 4:30
  Speaker 6: less of a man. It's just he may have a disability.
• 4:34
  Speaker 6: He could have gotten hurt. Anything could happen. So if
• 4:36
  Speaker 6: you are supportive of your man, regardless of what is
• 4:39
  Speaker 6: going on, you are both balancing that life balance. for children,
• 4:44
  Speaker 6: helping clean around the house, anything, just as long as
• 4:47
  Speaker 6: you have that communication. So I definitely don't say you
• 4:50
  Speaker 6: don't need one. It's always great to have a support
• 4:53
  Speaker 6: system regardless of anything.
• 4:56
  Speaker 3: I think it's an interesting question. I think that it
• 4:58
  Speaker 3: does limit the chance in the society that we live
• 5:01
  Speaker 3: in because I think when a woman starts making money,
• 5:04
  Speaker 3: I think a woman– it's like a woman's ego changes.
• 5:07
  Speaker 5: And I don't think that's in a bad way.
• 5:09
  Speaker 3: I think that's just the logic of how women think today.
• 5:12
  Speaker 3: I think it's harder for a woman to make more–
• 5:15
  Speaker 3: to be the breadwinner and– not feel as if, you know,
• 5:20
  Speaker 3: feel some type of resentment at a certain point. So
• 5:24
  Speaker 3: I think she makes a strong point with that. But
• 5:26
  Speaker 3: I think if the love is really there, then it
• 5:28
  Speaker 3: can work. So that's the obstacle on that.
• 5:31
  Speaker 2: So is this chick right? Do you guys not need
• 5:35
  Speaker 2: me anymore because you're the providers now?
• 5:36
  Speaker 1: 877-242-2426.
• 5:37
  Speaker 2: Get your calls.
• 5:39
  Speaker 5: In a bit.
• 5:40
  Speaker 2: It's the D.L. Hughley Show. So take a gander at this.
• 5:42
  Speaker 2: Take a listen to this.
• 5:44
  Speaker 11: Statistically speaking, when a wife out-earns her husband, the likelihood
• 5:47
  Speaker 11: of them getting a divorce goes up by 50%. And
• 5:49
  Speaker 11: it's already, for the record, sitting at around 45 to 50%.
• 5:52
  Speaker 11: So tack that on by another 50% and the odds
• 5:54
  Speaker 11: of them making it are slim. And that's for a
• 5:56
  Speaker 11: few reasons. One, if a woman is footing the bill
• 5:59
  Speaker 11: for most things because she's making more money naturally, she
• 6:01
  Speaker 11: may grow to resent her partner. She may feel that
• 6:03
  Speaker 11: he's not pulling his weight and start emasculating him 300%.
• 6:05
  Speaker 11: And by the way, that's not to say that there
• 6:08
  Speaker 11: aren't examples of couples where the woman makes more money
• 6:10
  Speaker 11: that do go the distance. But the odds are not
• 6:13
  Speaker 11: exactly stacked in your favor if you do fall into
• 6:15
  Speaker 11: that category.
• 6:16
  Speaker 10: Do you agree?
• 6:17
  Speaker 2: We're going right to the phones.
• 6:19
  Speaker 9: I just think that is just the most ridiculous thing
• 6:23
  Speaker 9: I have ever heard a woman say. Men are so
• 6:27
  Speaker 9: much more than just a bankroll or a paycheck. Sure,
• 6:33
  Speaker 9: women can earn their own money.
• 6:35
  Speaker 3: Yeah, we can provide.
• 6:36
  Speaker 9: For ourselves, but the man is the protector. He's a lover.
• 6:40
  Speaker 10: He's a friend.
• 6:41
  Speaker 9: He's a companion. There's so much more to the opposite
• 6:45
  Speaker 9: sex than just money. And she sounds just young and
• 6:51
  Speaker 9: dumb and inexperienced. I mean, I've been married. I love
• 6:55
  Speaker 9: having a man around the house to lift this and
• 6:59
  Speaker 9: bring this in, the muscle around the house and all
• 7:01
  Speaker 9: of that. So there is so much more to men.
• 7:05
  Speaker 9: than just the money aspect. You want to have someone
• 7:08
  Speaker 9: that you can go places with and have fun with,
• 7:11
  Speaker 9: someone to laugh with. So there's just so much more
• 7:14
  Speaker 9: to it than money.
• 7:15
  Speaker 10: Please, please, sister, be quiet.
• 7:19
  Speaker 5: I think her argument falls flat. I mean, she mentioned
• 7:22
  Speaker 5: mature stuff and money, but one thing she failed to
• 7:26
  Speaker 5: mention is love. Love conquers all. I mean, without love,
• 7:30
  Speaker 5: what's good is money? For her to say that a
• 7:33
  Speaker 5: woman doesn't need a man, why would God create a
• 7:35
  Speaker 5: man and woman then, if that was the case? She
• 7:39
  Speaker 5: seemed like she knew more than what God's plan had
• 7:42
  Speaker 5: for us. The fact that a woman makes more money
• 7:44
  Speaker 5: and she doesn't need a man is just ludicrous, you know?
• 7:48
  Speaker 5: So I don't know where she's getting that from or
• 7:49
  Speaker 5: what book she's reading. It makes no sense. I think
• 7:52
  Speaker 5: we all need somebody. There's no independent person on the
• 7:55
  Speaker 5: face of this earth. I have never met one. Everybody
• 7:57
  Speaker 5: needs someone. Every creature on this earth needs someone. But
• 8:01
  Speaker 5: love is one thing that she never mentioned. She never
• 8:04
  Speaker 5: mentioned love. So if you love a person, nothing else matters.
• 8:07
  Speaker 6: You know, some women might feel that way, but not
• 8:10
  Speaker 6: all women feel that way.
• 8:12
  Speaker 10: And that's out of the order of the way God
• 8:14
  Speaker 10: created a family, man, then woman, and child.
• 8:18
  Speaker 9: And you just can't.
• 8:19
  Speaker 6: Take it upon yourself and say you don't need men.
• 8:21
  Speaker 9: Anymore because men always needed around.
• 8:24
  Speaker 3: The fact that I had to raise all three of
• 8:26
  Speaker 3: my children.
• 8:28
  Speaker 9: On my own I always wanted and needed a good
• 8:31
  Speaker 9: man around. So just because men are not taking the
• 8:34
  Speaker 9: responsibility that they were placed here to do doesn't mean
• 8:39
  Speaker 9: that they're useless.
• 8:41
  Speaker 2: We got one of my favorite new segments. We have
• 8:44
  Speaker 2: some of the funniest comedians in the country. Some you know,
• 8:46
  Speaker 2: some you don't.
• 8:46
  Speaker 5: It's the D.L.
• 8:47
  Speaker 3: Hughley Show.
• 8:48
  Speaker 2: It is time for our feature, Welcome to the Stage,
• 8:50
  Speaker 2: where we spotlight some of the funniest comedians ever. Some
• 8:53
  Speaker 2: you know, some you do not. Welcome to the stage,
• 8:56
  Speaker 2: Tyree Elaine.
• 8:57
  Speaker 1: I just want to give some advice. I have a
• 8:59
  Speaker 1: side dude. Dude I see on the side of my
• 9:02
  Speaker 1: regular relationship. It keeps the regular relationship strong.
• 9:05
  Speaker 3: It does.
• 9:06
  Speaker 1: Ladies, if you're gonna cheat, please be responsible. Do it
• 9:09
  Speaker 1: with somebody who looks like your man. That way, if
• 9:10
  Speaker 1: you get pregnant, you got about a 90% chance of
• 9:13
  Speaker 1: getting away with it. I'm just trying to make your
• 9:15
  Speaker 1: holiday pictures make sense because I've seen some where I'm like,
• 9:17
  Speaker 1: you and the baby look cute, but who's that dude?
• 9:21
  Speaker 1: Am I wrong for saying that? I don't know.
• 9:23
  Speaker 8: Who knows?
• 9:23
  Speaker 1: But I know this. There's a double standard between men
• 9:25
  Speaker 1: and women. I was with a guy three and a
• 9:27
  Speaker 1: half years, okay? He goes overseas to play ball for, like,
• 9:30
  Speaker 1: a year. I didn't have no proof that he was cheating,
• 9:32
  Speaker 1: but you know how you just know? You know, because
• 9:34
  Speaker 1: you doing it, so you know all the behavior to
• 9:36
  Speaker 1: look for. But seriously, he's gone for a year to
• 9:39
  Speaker 1: play ball. I'm not stupid. I pick him up from
• 9:41
  Speaker 1: the airport. I'm like, how many women was you with overseas?
• 9:43
  Speaker 1: He tells me 12. I was like, okay. I took
• 9:46
  Speaker 1: it like a G. I could have killed both of us.
• 9:48
  Speaker 1: I was like, okay. whatever, because I braced myself for it.
• 9:53
  Speaker 1: What I didn't brace myself for was him asking me
• 9:55
  Speaker 1: how many dudes I was with while he was gone.
• 10:00
  Speaker 1: I was like, I'm grown, what? But since we was
• 10:04
  Speaker 1: being honest, I told him I was with only one
• 10:05
  Speaker 1: other dude. He flips out. Because I had a baby
• 10:08
  Speaker 1: about a dude, but I'm like, really? My one baby
• 10:12
  Speaker 1: versus your 12 grown women, and you're going to sit
• 10:14
  Speaker 1: up here and sweat the small stuff?
• 10:16
  Speaker 6: Really, Raheem?
• 10:17
  Speaker 1: I said, look at my son's face. He looks just
• 10:19
  Speaker 1: like you.
• 10:19
  Speaker 10: You're welcome.
• 10:22
  Speaker 1: You know how hard it is to find a black
• 10:24
  Speaker 1: man with red hair and freckles? It's an anomaly. Thank
• 10:28
  Speaker 1: you guys so much. My name is Tyree.
• 10:30
  Speaker 6: Hilarious.
• 10:31
  Speaker 2: We're going to be talking to musical artist Robert Glasper,
• 10:35
  Speaker 2: one of my favorites on the D.L.
• 10:36
