Explaining modern dating standards in Uberfrom @gracebeverley
[01]
Overview
The creator, filmed in a car, explains her perspective on modern relationship dynamics to her Uber driver. She argues that because women are now financially independent, their expectations for male partners have evolved beyond traditional provider roles, requiring men to contribute equally in all aspects of the relationship to be considered a valuable partner. She refutes the driver's traditional viewpoint by stating that women are leaving relationships for reasons beyond infidelity because they now have higher standards for emotional and domestic partnership.

Transcript
Because women can now earn and have a bank account and have a house and all of these things without men, they need men to carry extra weight to be worth dating. Because my my way of thinking, I'm like a good man. Yes. I think the dynamics of what people want from relationships is changing and therefore when they are like the people you were saying who who get in this taxi and say oh I left I left my husband no because they cheated on me but because of all these different things, it's because they're now allowed to ask more from their relationship. Women are working full time and also often being mothers full time and having all of the mental load of, you know, what's needed with the children and what's needed with the washing and all of these different things. Still is better intruded in one. Well, not if you're unhappy. Not if you feel like one person is getting away with doing absolutely nothing. No. That's rubbish. Historically, men would need to provide and women would need to do everything else. Whereas no women are also providing, and therefore, they need men to take on some of the rest of the stuff because otherwise women are working and doing all the stuff at home. I do agree with you.
