She strikes me as always trying to be radical. The way she describes what she was like as a young woman and now with this turnaround where she is a reactionary feminist. And Coleman should know it is quite different for a woman to parent than a man. It is a much bigger burden for women. Men are the drivers of the hookup culture. It is men's sexual preferences winning out. Women don't want to be shamed for their sexuality, but most don't enjoy hookup culture either. They don't have the power to take control. At least we have birth control and abortion. We may need better methods and many of us don't take the pill because of negative side effects and use other methods. Harrington is an intellectual that can talk a good talk about choices that work for her, but her arguments wouldn't work for me and many other women. I don't want to be in her cage.

She is a person that is very open about herself, as Coleman remarked. Liked the conversation very much.

It's very refreshing how much and how willing Mary is able to hold herself accountable for past wrong-doings and ill-natured beliefs. Introspection and humility is sorely lacking in much of today's discourse which in turn eliminates anything resembling nuance and good faith.

Harrington is so insightful, in both a theoretical and a personal way, and her voice is so warm and genuine: it's always a pleasure to hear her.

In individual cases, certainly, you are right. She is referring to the cultural idea that the nuclear family has been devalued by those movements. A strong stance, and I'm not sure to what extent I agree, but it's worth contemplating. A pop statistic for perspective: In the US in the 1960s roughly 10 or fewer white children were in a one parent home; today that is around 25%. In the 1960s roughly 25% of black children were in a one parent home; today that is around 70%. These phenomena must be reckoned wit, and the first step to reckoning is to theorize and then to see how well the theory fits events and data. Very best to you!

I’ve read a lot of Mary’s work on Unherd and enjoyed a lot of her podcast interviews. So great to hear a little more of her backstory- can much better understand how and why she thinks the way she does. A very important thinker, indeed.

Mary Harrington is both wicked smart and delightfully weird. I love her awkward random giggles at things she finds funny. And Coleman, having kids will be the most important thing you ever do.

This was one of the easiest to relate to, most compelling interviews you or anyone has ever given. Bravo to you and to your guest. She is a thinker who has in fact actually, truly, really thought deep thoughts and then explained them clearly and convincingly to the likes of me. At least for me, this interview is now the gold standard against which all others are measured.

This was good. Mary is an extremely insightful social critic with a timely message that people should engage with, whether they're largely in agreement or not. Coleman has become a fantastic interviewer. He keeps his guests and their ideas in focus; even when he's inserting personal anecdotes, they're highly relevant and genuinely additive to the conversation, not self-aggrandizing. The one time I remember him getting a bit testy was with Neil deGrasse Tyson, who's pomposity was so unbearably performative during that discussion that Coleman had to put his foot down, but his default disposition is one of humility and grace and appreciation for the thinkers that he speaks with, and it makes for really revealing explorations of the ideas that they contend with.

Brilliant insights, thank you for having her on. Such an important voice!

Incredible conversation!! Thank you ❤️

I'll listen wherever i notice MH has landed. It did seem like Coleman got more from her than I've heard before. Just for example, i believe i hadn't heard her link unemployability & ideology yet. So now her twenties are a cautionary tale I could've used in my twenties.

Awesome interview Coleman! Always insightful

Great discussion. I'll definitely look into Mary's book!

I'm male, but with such an upbringing, disposition, and education to make me familiar and interested in feminism. I'm reading more about the movement all the time, both the pro-feminists and those more critical of the movement. I think Mary Harrington is one of the most rational, cogent speakers on this topic. She definitely brings a different perspective on the topic, offering recognition for the feminine problem and compassion for women in the 21st century that conservative voices too often lack, but offering more than talking points and herd mentality that Feminism typically presents. A very thoughtful interview, sir.

Mary's great, so is Louise Perry, pls have on LP. I'm 32, I'd almost say my fav ppl are Louise, Coleman, Yeonmi Park, mainly because they're close to my age, and either high profile intellectuals doing great work, or nearly Ayaan-level heroes (Yeonmi). With that said, it doesn't mean I always agree. I tend to follow Louise's work more closely, who's a little more my generation. However, I'm a US Centrist Liberal, which pretty much matches Coleman. I'm not a moderate Conservative, either UK or US (like Mary, or Louise). Therefore, I'd appreciate if Coleman would consider engaging debate a little more, with Mary or Louise in future convos (to reiterate, these are a bunch of my fav ppl. Hearing the healthy disagreements helps me clarify my thoughts).

Thank you so much for this wonderful discussion! I would like to add (at mid-point) that abortion extremely discounts the psychological damage that results. A woman who miscarries is given the space to grieve and process. The woman who experiences an abortion has no such freedom - she must suppress in the name of “liberation”. Why aren’t women who say they care about women reaching out to to teach young, inexperienced women (and men) about the severe responsibility attached to a sexual union?

It was always men I was dating who tried to convince me to go on the pill. I tried it twice, both times at the behest of men who casually said “Why don’t you go on the pill?” Because to them it was no big deal, and would make their lives more convenient. It made me depressed, anxiety riddled, and gave me terrible acne. The worst part? It absolutely destroyed my sex drive. Effectively medically castrating me. Part of me wondered if that was a feature, not a bug. It upset me that nobody seemed to think that was an issue. As long as it convenienced men, what was the problem if I no longer found any enjoyment in the act? Even my own mother made ignorant remarks about how “there’s no excuse anymore for a woman to become accidentally pregnant.” I didn’t bother correcting her that the pill is a horrible idea, and not at all effective if you can’t take it. I’m so glad to now stumble upon more and more young women who aren’t afraid to talk about how not ok the pull is.

Speaking as a man with a vasectomy, I think a vasectomy is actually much more convenient.

Feminism was always a movement based on emotion instead of logic.

2:54 Athis moment, I praise video games and graphic designers for making imagination and commercials an improvement in direction. Some things can only be expressed and understood in newer viewpoints. Movies aren't enough now.

One definite reason for a declining birth rate is that many men don't view a marriage or family as a viable option, regardless of whether or not they want it. While social attitudes and incentives do push many to remain single, also at fault is a complete failure between the sexes of communication, trust, and a broken legal system. Men see marriage as a scam, something in which they have everything to lose (kids, wife, money, house, etc.) to a broken legal system while women see it as a patriarchal con to be reverse-played. In such a situation, the question, really, is who WOULD get married?

Yep...the trust between the sexes is simply gone. We just don't trust each other anymore. We see each other as a means to get off either sexually, financially, as some travel companion. The moment shit gets tough it is everybody for himself. Why work on conflict resolution and compromise when you can start the cycle with somebody else again? Also, there is no long term vision to why you would be with someone.

​@@Alnivol666Not just trust, I don't even like them. That distrust of strange men that we naturally have, that feeling is actually stronger in me towards women. Saying that as a man, too.

Women don't want to marry either

Mary Harrington is so unique and incisive in her views. It is so hard to argue with her views. Coleman’s “diner” allegory is outstanding. To hear him want to be a father of multiple children once again gives me hope in the future world.
