Adam Ruins Everything – How Prostitutes Settled the Wild West
source
this felt very jewish and subversive
Did people actually take this guy seriously?
oh, i see! so it was all of their own idea and decision! right😂
1:47
I'll never believe in a million years that a bunch of whores would make the west it is now. Shame on you for glorifying and celebrating this terrible act
Women 🍵
2:21 tsk tsk adam… men worked all those things.
Distorted western society
Why isn't this a movie..
LOVE, Peri Gilpin. She's always hilarious.
Apostle Paul was a tent maker. He said the world isn’t my h0me with the Hebrews. One day we will teleport into Jupiter with Lord YHWH
Hey, thats Roz off of "Frasier"
HOW ARE WE NOT TALKING ABOUT PERI GILPIN!!!!??????
I think many people read the title as "Only prostitutes settled the Wild West". It is more of a "how prostitutes helped settled the Wild West".
"saying women are good doesn't devalue your contributions as a man" is one of my favorite quotes. All genders contribute to society so we need to respect them all
Rozz from Frazier is very convincing as a prostitute. (I thought she sounded familiar.)
interesting
this is dumb as hell
the Wyoming thing isn't exactly accurate. Women getting the right to vote in Wyoming was more of a political move that was originally designed to try to get the governor at the time (I think, I would have to re look it up) kicked out of office. people ended up voting for it just bc nobody thought it would actually pass
Nevada really said "BUT NOT US" this is one of my favorite fun facts to pull out after this video!
Vote
1924
1800s
Woman power
This is present day, right?! Sounds like it!
Women did more to develop the west than men???? Is that found on a feminist forum???
Men built the towns, Men built the schools and churches. Women just provided money made by dirty jobs.
Roz from Fraiser.
I think the title should be changed to ALL women
No wonder the west is messed up its heridatory from there fore fathers
WOW! Well I'll be a 3 pecker barn Owl. I never knew any of this!
If prostitution was legal, the women would generate more economic power than the men, converting society from a patriarchy to a matriarchy, it makes sense why it isn't legal.
touche
This video helped me figure out my purpose in life..I will quit my job now and open a brothel!!
No wonder it's called the wild west.
Yaaa I'm pretty sure women didn't take there money and start businesses that part is a made up lie. Some did but majority of women were wanting too own business they wanted land a family and a strong husband. I have never seen so much manipulation as this. Who cares anyway your not gonna change history I feel like that's what this is re writing history. Lies lies devil lies
"I had nothin'" (3:24) – hey, you don't ever say that. knowing you were bluffing, professional card players can find your tells a lot more easily. 😀
Well I'll be a three peckered barn owl. Classic 😅. I like how the Uncle Sam character is appropriately inserted in every episode.
I got healed from hsv1/2 introduction and the response of #DrOseghaleSundayHerbalHome when I saw recommendations.
Proud to be an African American….
wasnt it illegal
If you want a fine example of this in media. Watch yellowstone. Grwat series
Told ya women aren’t helpless
Frontier Onlyfans
America went from prostitution to porn.
Damn it, Roz.
I made a goblin madame NPC designed off this video/history. She's my favorite NPC and very much a large and in charge woman.
Bruh I like early voting
All this one really does is perpetuate yet another infamous misconception about the Wild West. Most saloon girls weren't prostitutes. Some were, but they only worked at the really upscale places.
Moral of the story: capitslism rains supreme
