  • It is here! Our first educational series - William Marston! William Marston (1893-1947) was an American psychologist, lawyer, inventor, and writer, best known for creating the comic book character Wonder Woman. Marston studied psychology at Harvard University and went on to earn a law degree. Marston's research in psychology focused on human emotions and behavior, particularly in the area of deception. He developed the concept of the "lie detector" or polygraph machine, which measures physiological changes in the body as an indicator of whether a person is telling the truth. In addition to his work as a psychologist, he also wrote under various pseudonyms, including "Charles Moulton," and authored a number of books and articles on topics such as feminism and human behavior. Marston's most enduring legacy, however, is his creation of the comic book character Wonder Woman, who first appeared in 1941. He imbued Wonder Woman with qualities such as strength, courage, and compassion, and her character became an icon of female empowerment. The Movie: "Professor Marston and the Wonder Women," depicted Marston living a kinky poly lifestyle, but how much of that is the truth? Lets take a deep dive into the life of William Marston.

do that, you know, there's a lot of questions typically.21400:10:25,380 --> 00:10:26,420Why aren't you doing that?21500:10:26,420 --> 00:10:26,900So.21600:10:26,900 --> 00:10:29,300Yeah.21700:10:29,300 --> 00:10:29,860Yeah.21800:10:31,220 --> 00:10:32,180William Marston.21900:10:35,540 --> 00:10:37,060Definitely a bottom.22000:10:39,620 --> 00:10:43,300What is up with the bottom questions today?22100:10:45,620 --> 00:10:46,980We talk a lot about bottoms.22200:10:49,540 --> 00:10:50,740Soapy bottoms.22300:10:54,100 --> 00:10:55,300There's nothing more to say.22400:10:55,300 --> 00:10:58,500There's nothing better than a soapy bottom.22500:10:58,500 --> 00:11:00,180I like a soapy bottom.22600:11:00,180 --> 00:11:00,660What?22700:11:00,660 --> 00:11:04,500A soft core, soaped up butts like from a PG-13 camp movie.22800:11:04,500 --> 00:11:05,780I can't get enough of it.22900:11:05,780 --> 00:11:07,060Drives me wild.23000:11:07,060 --> 00:11:08,580OK, let's talk about something else.23100:11:08,580 --> 00:11:12,020OK, so back to Margaret and Ethel.23200:11:12,900 --> 00:11:13,220Yes.23300:11:13,220 --> 00:11:19,620So even though her aunt would remarry a millionaire in 1922.23400:11:20,180 --> 00:11:21,060Oh, how convenient.23500:11:21,060 --> 00:11:23,620Like a billionaire nowadays or a trillionaire.23600:11:23,620 --> 00:11:25,940So someone was born in a castle.23700:11:26,900 --> 00:11:28,740And someone else is married to a billionaire.23800:11:29,700 --> 00:11:31,860There seems to be a pattern in the story.23900:11:34,020 --> 00:11:34,520However.24000:11:36,100 --> 00:11:38,740She would keep it a secret for over a year.24100:11:39,540 --> 00:11:40,500Oh, wow.24200:11:40,500 --> 00:11:41,000Why?24300:11:41,460 --> 00:11:47,700So based on my research, it was most likely to help fund her birth control movement.24400:11:49,140 --> 00:11:50,660And I say that in regards of.24500:11:50,660 --> 00:11:56,900If you're married to a millionaire, why would you need funds?24600:11:57,700 --> 00:11:59,460Like, why would you need donations?24700:11:59,460 --> 00:12:01,700Like, why not just like have your husband pay for it?24800:12:02,980 --> 00:12:03,460Sure.24900:12:03,460 --> 00:12:04,020Right.25000:12:04,020 --> 00:12:07,620So I think it also kind of paints like a different picture.25100:12:08,340 --> 00:12:08,820Right.25200:12:08,820 --> 00:12:16,980Like someone from high society, you know, kind of like fighting for a cause versus someone25300:12:16,980 --> 00:12:25,300that's like trying to very much be the average, everyday person fighting for women's rights.25400:12:25,300 --> 00:12:27,300It I think it hits differently.25500:12:28,180 --> 00:12:33,220Oh, so she was afraid of having a public image of being married into money.25600:12:35,300 --> 00:12:35,800Right.25700:12:36,340 --> 00:12:38,100Like, so imagine this.25800:12:39,380 --> 00:12:41,620Two, two different politicians.25900:12:41,620 --> 00:12:42,120Yeah.26000:12:42,900 --> 00:12:44,180One politician.26100:12:44,180 --> 00:12:49,460So something that's a very hot topic today, affordable housing.26200:12:50,580 --> 00:12:57,220So if what, if one, one politicians yelling about affordable housing, trying to get.26300:12:58,100 --> 00:13:04,180More options on the market, trying to fundraise, get money for programs, get grants for programs.26400:13:05,300 --> 00:13:08,100So let's say, sorry, let's say both of them are doing that.26500:13:08,660 --> 00:13:09,700One politician.26600:13:11,140 --> 00:13:12,340You find a lot of money.26700:13:12,340 --> 00:13:17,300One you find out came from a very.26800:13:18,900 --> 00:13:23,780Poor background was homeless, struggled to find affordable housing.26900:13:23,780 --> 00:13:25,220Now he's in Congress.27000:13:25,220 --> 00:13:26,020He's fighting.27100:13:26,020 --> 00:13:33,940He's yelling for affordable housing versus someone who is a millionaire.27200:13:35,060 --> 00:13:40,340Screaming about affordable housing, which one I think hits harder.27300:13:40,340 --> 00:13:44,500I mean, it sounds like, you know, obviously the person with that background27400:13:44,500 --> 00:13:49,540cares more about that cause because they, they got to where they're at now.27500:13:51,300 --> 00:13:52,180From the beginning.27600:13:52,180 --> 00:13:52,680Yeah.27700:13:53,060 --> 00:13:54,660Of dealing with that problem versus.27800:13:55,700 --> 00:14:01,060You know, someone who's lived a life of luxury being like, yeah, I care about poor people.27900:14:02,180 --> 00:14:03,860Yeah, it becomes very political.28000:14:03,860 --> 00:14:08,340Like, oh, you're just choosing a hot topic because you know, people you're trying to get reelected.28100:14:08,340 --> 00:14:17,860And this is my like personal opinion from the research that I did, but I do feel like maybe she28200:14:17,860 --> 00:14:24,100did think that it was going to help her public image if everyone all of a sudden knew that she was28300:14:24,900 --> 00:14:26,900this very wealthy, like millionaire.28400:14:28,500 --> 00:14:30,100That's just personally my opinion.28500:14:30,980 --> 00:14:32,500So she kept it hidden.28600:14:33,140 --> 00:14:33,640Right.28700:14:34,020 --> 00:14:38,260However, her new husband is the president.28800:14:38,260 --> 00:14:44,500The person that paid for all of his college tuition at Tufts university.28900:14:47,460 --> 00:14:47,960Nice.29000:14:48,580 --> 00:14:49,080Very nice.29100:14:49,620 --> 00:14:50,500So pay pig.29200:14:55,380 --> 00:14:56,020Oh gosh.29300:14:56,900 --> 00:14:59,780I don't think they had the term pay pig back then.29400:15:01,060 --> 00:15:02,340Maybe I don't know.29500:15:04,340 --> 00:15:05,380He's a pay pig.29600:15:05,380 --> 00:15:13,220Anyways, so in her freshman year of college, by the way, she was an English major.29700:15:14,660 --> 00:15:15,620She started school.29800:15:16,500 --> 00:15:19,940She was already two months behind in her semester.29900:15:19,940 --> 00:15:23,860So it was kind of, she was struggling right from the gate.30000:15:25,060 --> 00:15:30,340She didn't really do that well grade wise in college.30100:15:30,980 --> 00:15:33,140She was in the glee club.30200:15:33,140 --> 00:15:37,060She was on the newspaper staff for the college.30300:15:38,100 --> 00:15:40,500She was chairman of the social committee.30400:15:41,140 --> 00:15:42,420She played basketball.30500:15:44,100 --> 00:15:47,220She landed a leading role in the opera.30600:15:48,900 --> 00:15:55,060And she was a member of Alpha Omega cron phi sorority.30700:15:56,100 -->

the Tufts liberal club.31200:16:06,340 --> 00:16:09,780So she did a lot of extra activities.31300:16:09,780 --> 00:16:10,900Extra curriculars.31400:16:10,900 --> 00:16:11,400Yes.31500:16:12,020 -->

00:17:12,040Her grades would come up.34000:17:12,040 --> 00:17:13,160She would do better.34100:17:14,440 --> 00:17:19,000Something to note here, her sophomore year, she actually invited her aunt to

talked about this, I believe, in the very first episode34500:17:29,160 --> 00:17:35,800about how college campuses were trying to keep women from talking and fighting,34600:17:35,800 -->

campus.34900:17:42,920 --> 00:17:47,480And it seemed like a lot of students, men included, males included, were against that.35000:17:47,480 --> 00:17:48,280They were like, fuck that.35100:17:48,280

distinctive student of class of 1926.35700:18:18,360 --> 00:18:18,860Wow.35800:18:18,860 --> 00:18:22,060She's very prestigious in her own right.35900:18:23,980 --> 00:18:24,480Yeah.36000:18:25,100

kind of relieved to find out that that wasn't the event.39700:20:12,700 --> 00:20:14,300Yeah, I was like, OK, cool.39800:20:15,420 --> 00:20:16,220I like that.39900:20:16,220 --> 00:20:17,020This is better.40000:20:17,020 --> 00:20:18,060This is a lot better.40100:20:18,060 --> 00:20:18,460OK.40200:20:18,460 --> 00:20:19,020I love that.40300:20:19,020 --> 00:20:19,580That's funny.40400:20:20,620 --> 00:20:21,120All right.40500:20:22,380 --> 00:20:27,980So in the fall of 1925, what happens?40600:20:28,620 --> 00:20:32,300William Marston arrives at Tufts University.40700:20:32,300 --> 00:20:34,780And we talked about this in a previous episode.40800:20:34,780 --> 00:20:37,420He always has like the right timing for everything.40900:20:37,420 --> 00:20:38,220Yes.41000:20:38,220 --> 00:20:38,620Really?41100:20:38,620 --> 00:20:39,340Seriously?41200:20:39,340 --> 00:20:45,100Now, what's very interesting is he arrives as a assistant professor.41300:20:45,100 --> 00:20:45,900And I want to.41400:20:48,540 --> 00:20:49,180Assistant.41500:20:50,780 --> 00:20:53,340He's an assistant professor.41600:20:54,220 --> 00:20:55,020William is?41700:20:55,020 --> 00:20:56,060He went from.41800:20:56,060 --> 00:21:03,580Yes, he went from Harvard to teaching at American University.41900:21:03,580 --> 00:21:08,380And then and also being on the psychology board.42000:21:10,380 --> 00:21:18,060So he went from all that to teaching at Tufts University as an assistant professor.42100:21:19,500 --> 00:21:20,300Why?42200:21:21,740 --> 00:21:23,740So this is a this is a huge.42300:21:23,740 --> 00:21:24,860Yeah, he sounds.42400:21:24,860 --> 00:21:28,620Yeah, because he had like a really good job and really good career.42500:21:29,100 --> 00:21:32,540And I think that part was actually present represented in the movie.42600:21:32,540 --> 00:21:33,740It was.42700:21:33,740 --> 00:21:34,140It was.42800:21:34,140 --> 00:21:35,740We know something happened.42900:21:36,620 --> 00:21:38,780We don't specifically know.43000:21:38,780 --> 00:21:44,140So, for instance, we know he was fired from American University after he was arrested43100:21:44,140 --> 00:21:45,820in charge with fraud.43200:21:45,820 --> 00:21:47,580However, all charges were dropped.43300:21:48,860 --> 00:21:55,100We do know, for instance, Sadie did not follow him to Massachusetts.43400:21:55,100 --> 00:21:58,940She took a job in New York instead for a psychology journal.43500:21:58,940 --> 00:22:02,620So you're talking about kind of a newlywed company or.43600:22:03,660 --> 00:22:07,740They're freshly together and they go on separate paths.43700:22:07,740 --> 00:22:13,260He was doing very well academically in his career and then takes a huge demotion.43800:22:13,260 --> 00:22:16,460And then she also changes careers.43900:22:17,580 --> 00:22:25,180She she takes a I think this might be her first job out of college.44000:22:25,180 --> 00:22:26,460I'm not entirely sure.44100:22:26,460 --> 00:22:30,140But the fact is, you know, and Sadie.44200:22:31,020 --> 00:22:33,660Sadie is not your typical woman at all.44300:22:33,660 --> 00:22:40,060Keep in mind, it's very much rumored that Wonder Woman is kind of based off of Sadie.44400:22:40,060 --> 00:22:43,500So she is a very strong, independent woman.44500:22:43,500 --> 00:22:48,060And we'll kind of get into that a little bit later, but she wanted to focus on her career.44600:22:48,780 --> 00:22:51,820She didn't want anything to hinder her career at all.44700:22:51,820 --> 00:22:59,820However, it is a little odd that you're going to take a job in a different state from your husband.44800:22:59,820 --> 00:23:00,620All together.44900:23:00,620 --> 00:23:03,260Yes, newly husband.45000:23:04,060 --> 00:23:10,140And also at the same time, your husband got arrested for fraud, but all charges were dropped,45100:23:10,140 --> 00:23:19,260got fired from a university and is no longer on a psychology board and also is now an assistant professor.45200:23:19,260 --> 00:23:21,340I mean, the major happened there.45300:23:21,340 --> 00:23:30,380Well, that and I believe a lot of a lot of women's success at the time was also framed around how successful their husband was.45400:23:31,260 --> 00:23:32,060Correct.45500:23:33,180 --> 00:23:33,660Yes.45600:23:34,940 --> 00:23:39,580Now, something that I can't say for sure.45700:23:40,300 --> 00:23:41,340This is what happened.45800:23:41,340 --> 00:23:47,260But looking at like timeline of events, keep in mind, this is 1925.45900:23:47,260 --> 00:23:54,860Yes, 1925 and 1923, he published a book.46000:23:57,180 --> 00:24:01,180OK, so this is always that the book on this theory?46100:24:01,180 --> 00:24:02,620No, not yet.46200:24:02,620 --> 00:24:03,420Oh, yeah.46300:24:03,420 --> 00:24:07,660But he published a book on or sorry, not a book.46400:24:08,220 --> 00:24:10,780He published an article about sex.46500:24:11,340 --> 00:24:11,900Oh, boy.46600:24:12,940 --> 00:24:16,620Oh, I probably said this may have been the catalyst.46700:24:16,620 --> 00:24:17,020Yeah.46800:24:17,020 --> 00:24:21,180Now, keep in mind, you know, psychology there.46900:24:22,540 --> 00:24:22,860You know.47000:24:24,220 --> 00:24:29,100A lot of psychologists in this time period are obsessed with talking about sex.47100:24:29,100 --> 00:24:33,420I mean, you had Sigmund Freud.47200:24:33,420 --> 00:24:37,180Yeah, that guy who everything was sex to him.47300:24:37,180 --> 00:24:42,140Every every, you know, sex could be explained for every single thing.47400:24:42,140 --> 00:24:43,180In a suddenly.47500:24:43,180 --> 00:24:46,220Yeah, he talked about sex with how many different family members?47600:24:46,220 --> 00:24:48,140Oh, like all of them.47700:24:48,140 --> 00:24:48,380Yeah.47800:24:48,380 --> 00:24:48,780Yeah.47900:24:48,780 --> 00:24:49,500Oh, my God.48000:24:49,500 --> 00:24:50,140Yeah, that guy.48100:24:51,420 --> 00:24:53,340So that that one.48200:24:53,340 --> 00:24:58,540But I kind of I kind of feel like maybe his article didn't go so well48300:24:58,540 --> 00:25:02,540and he started kind of getting maybe knocked down a little bit48400:25:03,180 --> 00:25:06,540on his kind of academic ladder.48500:25:06,540 --> 00:25:09,820Also, getting arrested doesn't help, even though the charges were dropped.48600:25:09,820 --> 00:25:12,780But it looks bad.48700:25:12,780 --> 00:25:13,740It looks bad.48800:25:13,740 --> 00:25:13,980Yeah.48900:25:13,980 --> 00:25:15,180Professional career does.49000:25:15,180 --> 00:25:18,380And I could see people back then being hyper judgmental of,49100:25:19,100 --> 00:25:20,380you were accused of that.49200:25:21,100 --> 00:25:23,020Yeah, but all the drops, all charges were dropped.49300:25:23,020 --> 00:25:24,940Yeah, but you were accused of that.49400:25:24,940 --> 00:25:25,180Yeah.49500:25:26,860 --> 00:25:28,300You know, now.49600:25:30,460 --> 00:25:32,060We don't specifically know.49700:25:32,060 --> 00:25:35,660I kind of feel like maybe it was a it was a few different things.49800:25:36,300 --> 00:25:40,540So we don't specifically know, but I feel like maybe it was a few different things49900:25:40,540 --> 00:25:47,100of, you know, the article, maybe some other things. What we do know is what happens50000:25:47,100 --> 00:25:50,220at Tufts. And I think maybe that can kind of be a clue.50100:25:50,940 --> 00:25:59,820So at Tufts University, Olive took experimental psychology with William Marston in 1925.50200:26:00,380 --> 00:26:04,540And besides gym class, it was her only a.50300:26:06,140 --> 00:26:06,640Interesting.50400:26:07,500 --> 00:26:09,420Oh, that's very interesting.50500:26:09,420 --> 00:26:09,920Interesting.50600:26:10,300 --> 00:26:17,740In fact, she also took applied psychology, abnormal psychology and a research seminar50700:26:17,740 --> 00:26:22,540meant for grad level students.

--> 00:31:32,300It's just a ton of butt.60500:31:33,260 --> 00:31:33,980A ton.60600:31:33,980 --> 00:31:34,220OK.60700:31:35,180 --> 00:31:35,740OK.60800:31:35,740 --> 00:31:36,620A booty.60900:31:39,580 --> 00:31:46,220Now, William Marston's disk theory is a behavioral model that explains how individuals61000:31:46,220 --> 00:31:50,380tend to respond to their environment and interact with with others.61100:31:50,380 --> 00:31:56,620So basically, disk puts people into four different personality traits.61200:31:57,180 --> 00:32:01,340So the D, the I, the S and the C all stand for something.61300:32:01,340 --> 00:32:03,180Can you guess what they stand for?61400:32:05,580 --> 00:32:07,340D is obviously for dominance.61500:32:07,900 --> 00:32:08,460Yes.61600:32:08,460 --> 00:32:11,660I is for influence because, you know, I'm an influencer.61700:32:12,220 --> 00:32:12,780Oh, my gosh.61800:32:12,780 --> 00:32:13,020Yes.61900:32:13,020 --> 00:32:20,620S is for subs steadiness.62000:32:20,620 --> 00:32:21,180Right.62100:32:21,180 --> 00:32:21,820Right.62200:32:21,820 --> 00:32:24,300And C is for conscientiousness.62300:32:24,300 --> 00:32:24,940Correct.62400:32:24,940 --> 00:32:25,340Wow.62500:32:25,340 --> 00:32:25,980OK.62600:32:25,980 --> 00:32:28,620I thought I was so as was submissive.62700:32:28,620 --> 00:32:31,660One would think one would think.62800:32:32,220 --> 00:32:33,340Well, there's dominance.62900:32:33,340 --> 00:32:33,660I forget.63000:32:33,660 --> 00:32:34,460I forget.63100:32:34,460 --> 00:32:35,820It's not BDSM yet.63200:32:35,820 --> 00:32:36,780This is before.63300:32:36,780 --> 00:32:39,420This is the pre to be dominance.63400:32:39,420 --> 00:32:41,580This is the pre to be dominance.63500:32:41,580 --> 00:32:43,420I thought it would be dominance and then this.63600:32:44,940 --> 00:32:47,100BDSM isn't a thing yet.63700:32:47,100 --> 00:32:47,900OK.63800:32:47,900 --> 00:32:50,860So I got this early 1900 still.63900:32:50,860 --> 00:32:51,420All right.64000:32:51,420 --> 00:32:52,060Yes.64100:32:52,060 --> 00:32:53,020Yeah, definitely.64200:32:53,020 --> 00:32:53,900BDSM is like.64300:32:55,580 --> 00:32:56,300Not around yet.64400:32:57,100 --> 00:32:58,300I mean, I would say it's around.64500:32:58,300 --> 00:33:00,780It's around, but it's not called that term, isn't there?64600:33:01,580 --> 00:33:06,780So kind of going into a little bit deeper, D dominance,64700:33:06,780 --> 00:33:11,500people with dominant personalities are assertive goal oriented.64800:33:11,500 --> 00:33:12,700Decisive.64900:33:12,700 --> 00:33:16,940They're typically very confident and enjoy taking charge of all situations.65000:33:17,980 --> 00:33:18,940Makes sense.65100:33:18,940 --> 00:33:19,440Yes.65200:33:19,980 --> 00:33:26,620The I individuals with influential personalities are outgoing, optimistic, and sociable.65300:33:27,340 --> 00:33:31,420They enjoy building relationships and are good at persuading others.65400:33:32,780 --> 00:33:33,420That makes sense.65500:33:34,940 --> 00:33:36,780S steadiness.65600:33:36,780 --> 00:33:43,500People are steady people with a steady personality are patient, supportive, and reliable.65700:33:44,060 --> 00:33:48,060They are typically team players who value harmony and stability.65800:33:50,220 --> 00:33:50,940OK.65900:33:50,940 --> 00:34:01,340So see conscientiousness are individuals that are analytical, detail oriented and systematic.66000:34:01,340 --> 00:34:05,740They value being very accurate and driving for perfection.66100:34:06,460 --> 00:34:07,020OK.66200:34:07,020 --> 00:34:08,700So it's like, yeah.66300:34:09,260 --> 00:34:12,940Which you would need in order to even pronounce your letter.66400:34:13,660 --> 00:34:20,540It's almost like the dis theory back then was used a lot like was that one personality test that we do nowadays.66500:34:22,220 --> 00:34:23,260Oh, the Myers-Briggs.66600:34:23,260 --> 00:34:26,780Yeah, it's like a very basic Myers-Briggs personality test.66700:34:26,780 --> 00:34:27,580It seems like.66800:34:27,580 --> 00:34:28,940Have you guys done that, by the way?66900:34:28,940 --> 00:34:29,420No.67000:34:29,420 --> 00:34:31,420What are you?67100:34:31,420 --> 00:34:33,420Oh, gosh, what am I?67200:34:33,420 --> 00:34:34,700I was like, Ian.67300:34:34,700 --> 00:34:35,500We're the same.67400:34:35,500 --> 00:34:36,700FJ or ENFP.67500:34:36,700 --> 00:34:38,700No, we're ENFP.67600:34:38,700 --> 00:34:39,260ENFP.67700:34:39,260 --> 00:34:40,220Both of us.67800:34:40,220 --> 00:34:40,700Yeah.67900:34:43,740 --> 00:34:44,860Does that scare you?68000:34:46,220 --> 00:34:47,740I'm just going to leave the podcast now.68100:34:47,740 --> 00:34:48,540Why?68200:34:48,540 --> 00:34:49,340Hang on.68300:34:50,140 --> 00:34:50,620Why?68400:34:50,620 --> 00:34:51,580Does it?68500:34:51,580 --> 00:34:52,540Is that bad?68600:34:52,540 --> 00:34:53,580I think.68700:34:53,580 --> 00:34:54,780Let me like.68800:34:54,780 --> 00:34:55,820They're like, yeah.68900:34:55,820 --> 00:34:57,340I think that's the.69000:34:57,340 --> 00:34:59,500Most toxic one.69100:35:01,500 --> 00:35:03,500Extrovert.69200:35:04,380 --> 00:35:04,940Yeah.69300:35:05,660 --> 00:35:07,580So that's very interesting.69400:35:07,580 --> 00:35:09,580I'm an INFP.69500:35:10,620 --> 00:35:13,420You guys are ENFPs.69600:35:13,420 --> 00:35:14,460Mm hmm.69700:35:14,460 --> 00:35:21,500So we are very similar personalities, except for I'm introverted and you both are extroverted.69800:35:21,500 --> 00:35:22,060Yeah.69900:35:22,940 --> 00:35:23,820Wow.70000:35:23,820 --> 00:35:33,420It would make sense because like back in the day when we used to go party and stuff, you were very you would you would you would come out of your own shell eventually.70100:35:33,420 --> 00:35:36,380But it was mostly like I was instantly out of my own shell.70200:35:36,380 --> 00:35:39,020I was just like, oh, I was I was always out of my shell.70300:35:39,020 --> 00:35:41,020Yeah, whatever.70400:35:41,020 --> 00:35:49,580So yeah, it does seem like it's a very basic version of the Myers-Briggs test.70500:35:49,580 --> 00:35:51,980But specifically.70600:35:51,980 --> 00:35:56,540When it comes to like dominance and submission, right?70700:35:56,540 --> 00:36:11,180Well, so the whole idea is that by better understanding the four personality types, one can improve communication, build stronger relationships and enhance teamwork in personal and professional settings.70800:36:11,180 --> 00:36:14,220So I think the other one is mainly.70900:36:14,220 --> 00:36:16,220A lot like broader.71000:36:16,220 --> 00:36:21,820On like, hey, this is kind of who you are in life.71100:36:21,820 --> 00:36:24,140This is more so I kind of feel like in a.71200:36:26,140 --> 00:36:28,140Professional like.71300:36:30,140 --> 00:36:33,980Again, teamwork, working together, how to get what you want.71400:36:33,980 --> 00:36:34,780Mm hmm.71500:36:34,780 --> 00:36:39,580So which would make sense why, you know, it's still used in kind of like a business atmosphere.71600:36:39,580 --> 00:36:42,060So it's the Myers-Briggs test for business professionals.71700:36:42,060 --> 00:36:42,780I guess.71800:36:42,780 --> 00:36:47,180For your business personality, everyone does have like a different personality when it comes to business.71900:36:47,180 --> 00:36:48,540That is very true.72000:36:48,540 --> 00:36:49,580I am.72100:36:49,580 --> 00:36:53,100Let's be honest, like you're a different person when you're when it comes down to.72200:36:53,100 --> 00:36:57,420Well, yeah, like you like even like when you're at work, you like you put your work smile on.72300:36:57,420 --> 00:36:59,740It's a different kind of smile than your authentic one.72400:37:01,020 --> 00:37:01,740Right.72500:37:01,740 --> 00:37:03,740Yeah, I definitely agree with that.72600:37:03,740 --> 00:37:04,940Yeah, our kind of work.72700:37:04,940 --> 00:37:05,500Yes.72800:37:05,500 --> 00:37:08,380Except for us, these are our real smiles, by the way.72900:37:08,380 --> 00:37:28,940Right. Yeah. So Olive actually took her professor to show him how new pledges and her sorority were hazed, which involved dressing them up as babies, blindfolding them, tying their hands behind their backs and hitting them with sticks or paddles.73000:37:28,940 --> 00:37:30,540Hold on a second.73100:37:30,540 --> 00:37:33,020Someone that was in charge of that.73200:37:33,020 --> 00:37:35,020Yeah, I think that's a good one.73300:37:35,020 --> 00:37:42,700Someone that was in charge of that had that was playing to like their fantasy of some sort.73400:37:42,700 --> 00:37:46,140I do believe so.73500:37:46,140 --> 00:37:50,220I mean, part of it is going to be just kind of tradition.73600:37:50,220 --> 00:37:56,460I mean, we still see fraternities doing stuff like that, even though they're not really supposed to, I don't think anymore.73700:37:56,460 --> 00:37:59,740But you still see fraternities doing this today.73800:37:59,740 --> 00:38:07,500So I think some of it is probably just tradition, like, oh, hey, every year we do this.73900:38:07,500 --> 00:38:17,500However, at least somewhere down the line, there's there's people that maybe they don't even know it, but they this is a kinky side to them.74000:38:17,500 --> 00:38:19,260Yeah. Interesting.74100:38:19,260 --> 00:38:22,060On both sides, the people that are in charge and the people that are.74200:38:22,060 --> 00:38:27,020Yeah, it's like from the dominant perspective, they're like, yes, yes.74300:38:27,020 --> 00:38:31,500Do this humiliating thing for me. Pledge your loyalty to me.74400:38:31,500 --> 00:38:37,100Yeah. And then on the Somerset side, it's like, I'm just happy to be here.74500:38:37,100 --> 00:38:41,940So all of invited William to the.74600:38:41,940 --> 00:38:45,180Her sorority initiation for hazing.74700:38:45,180 --> 00:38:47,100I mean, it was hazing.74800:38:47,100 --> 00:38:51,900Oh, OK. Was it her being initiated or is it just other sorority members?74900:38:51,900 --> 00:38:59,580Based on my research, I believe it was just witnessing other people's initiation.75000:38:59,580 --> 00:39:05,420I think she was already actually in to the sorority.75100:39:05,420 --> 00:39:13,580And again, the movie depicts William Marston sneaking in and like not it's not known that he's in there.75200:39:13,580 --> 00:39:17,180Right. Like the sorority doesn't know that he's watching.75300:39:17,180 --> 00:39:24,060However, we do know that afterwards, all of them, William conducted interviews on the upper class women75400:39:24,060 --> 00:39:32,700who were hazing and the research that they kind of came up with was that in most cases,75500:39:32,700 --> 00:39:38,540the women that were involved enjoyed what was happening.75600:39:38,540 --> 00:39:42,460Interesting. Yeah, the movie definitely did not.75700:39:42,460 --> 00:39:46,300It definitely looked like, oh, we're sneaking into doing something naughty.75800:39:46,300 --> 00:39:49,340Right. Yeah. And it was like something all of was here.75900:39:49,340 --> 00:39:51,740You should come watch this. Right.76000:39:51,740 --> 00:39:53,820Yeah, it's like all of knew it was going on.76100:39:53,820 --> 00:39:59,420But that does kind of sound like isn't that how that type of research would even come to be known to begin with?76200:39:59,420 --> 00:40:06,340I could totally understand the professors learning that these sororities and fraternities are doing stuff like that.76300:40:06,340 --> 00:40:10,020And they're like, oh, I wonder why they're doing that.76400:40:10,020 --> 00:40:11,900Yeah. And they just started studying it.76500:40:11,900 --> 00:40:13,620So that's a that's a really good point.76600:40:13,620 --> 00:40:19,100I mean, he's a psychology assistant professor.76700:40:19,100 --> 00:40:26,900So, you know. Yeah, it could be, hey, we're let's kind of try to figure out why this is happening.76800:40:26,900 --> 00:40:32,100He's establishing disk theory. He's coming up like, hey, like this is consensual.76900:40:32,100 --> 00:40:35,220Hey, they are enjoying it.77000:40:35,220 --> 00:40:36,980That's interesting to me.77100:40:36,980 --> 00:40:42,980I wonder what all of intentions of inviting him were besides for just research purposes.77200:40:42,980 --> 00:40:50,260It's hard to say, because obviously we don't have like all the facts here, but maybe all of.77300:40:50,260 --> 00:40:54,380Did go to William and say, like, hey.77400:40:54,380 --> 00:40:56,940You know, I've taken like.77500:40:56,940 --> 00:41:06,340Four of your classes, something that's kind of interesting is, you know, my sorority does hazing every semester or whatever.77600:41:06,340 --> 00:41:08,420So maybe she pitched it to.77700:41:08,420 --> 00:41:14,860But what we do know is what happens the next year in 1926.77800:41:14,860 --> 00:41:19,860Olive actually graduates from college.77900:41:19,860 --> 00:41:22,660Yay. Yay. Congratulations.78000:41:22,660 --> 00:41:32,140Nice. And also at that college graduation, William invited his wife, Sadie, to the graduation ceremony to, quote,78100:41:32,140 --> 00:41:39,180meet someone special and there is a photograph of William.78200:41:39,180 --> 00:41:44,180Olive, Olive's mother and Sadie.78300:41:44,180 --> 00:41:53,260Oh, wow. So kind of a group photo of all of Sadie, William and then all of his mother.78400:41:53,260 --> 00:41:56,980So that was their first meeting. Yeah.78500:41:56,980 --> 00:42:01,780As far as we know, I wonder what was going on in Sadie's mind.78600:42:01,780 --> 00:42:07,780Like. How much information do you think that he?78700:42:07,780 --> 00:42:11,700Gave Sadie about all of my wonder.78800:42:11,700 --> 00:42:21,580Like, did she walk into this just thinking, oh, this is just one of his favorite students or like, is this someone that my husband's interested in?78900:42:21,580 --> 00:42:26,900My opinion is based on.79000:42:26,900 --> 00:42:31,860Details that are about to come up in the story.79100:42:31,860 --> 00:42:43,260To me, I think it was Sadie did not know a whole lot, and it was very much like, hey, come be my favorite or like maybe someone that's like.79200:42:43,260 --> 00:42:52,700Very kind of. Because keep in mind, Sadie and William both got degrees in psychology.79300:42:52,700 --> 00:42:59,620So it very much could have been a hey, this person, this young person just graduated from college.79400:42:59,620 --> 00:43:04,700They're very smart, very bright.
