Zach: the guy you wish you had.
Eli: the guy you don’t want to deal with, at all.
Garrett: clueless, but willing to learn.
Spot on!
Yeeeessss Zach was my favorite. Eli is the guy women would be with while still being Eli with Zach feelings. AKA FANTASY
1000% yes
ikr?
Eli is pissing me off already and I’m only a few minutes in.
Zach is like the only one who took this lesson to heart
.
..
I thought Garrett learned quite a bit too. I think Zach understood more cuz he has a girlfriend that uses it.
I actually started crying when he said the part about taking so many hormones and not wanting them. The only birth control that works for my body and my lifestyle is depo provera ("the shot") and holy sht. Just holy guacamole with a side of chipotle. The 7 days after a dose is such an emotional landslide
Frrr
I'm such an idiot i thought they would eat real birth control pills
Xoxo 2000 same
Xoxo 2000 same
Me too! What a dissapointment lol
yeah that straight up wouldn't be safe lol also what doctor gonna prescribe that haha
tomastaz walking into the doctors like
" hi, I'm here to pick up the birth control pills"
" you're s man?"
Yes now give them to me
Yo when that dude was like “she has all the hormones being pumped into her” and he actually respected her. YO YOU GOT A MANS
Soo Thoughtful!!! I wonder if him & his gf have switched to condoms!! He seemed really empathetic & concerned.
@@Stephmac2403 its still always safer using two methods, yknow, like having a backup
@YoungOasis yep, I know it's taken for other reasons. Nine is so young, but I hope it helped!! I can't imagine starting menstruation so young, and with pain. That must've been really difficult. Hoping all is well with you 👋
@YoungOasis insurance is an enemy to public health. I've had it seriously endanger my health
*makes it more realistic*
Eli: "You're just trying to make this more difficult, aren't you?"
this process is difficult, so I make process difficult, otherwise, I wouldn't be making the same process, that is the best I can describe it...
no literally!
"We appreciate what women do for us"
"Don't do that"
THANK YOU SO MUCH
she didnt say it to that, she said that when he referred to women as "creatures"
It was his patronizing attitude.
It was how he was like "women are amazing CREATURES" . WE aren't creatures. Plus he was acting super patronizing. I like that he was trying to show appreciation (I think) but he did it so wrong.
..
Right, patronizing little prick. be womanless
Don't forget though that birth control doesnt only prevent pregnancy. There are people like myself who need it for medical reasons. Without birth control I would be in the hospital every months for ovarian cysts.
Sarah Bond yup same I got polycystic ovaries it's horrid.
Sarah Bond You don't NEED it, you just use it to cover up the symptoms your body is giving you that someone in your life is unhealthy. You can look up videos of countless women who have completely healed PCOS with diet or lifestyle changes. I wish you luck
You have no idea what it's like by your ignorant comment. "Symptoms that your life is unhealthy"?? Are you kidding me!? Health issues aren't all caused by unhealthy lifestyle habits. There are things like genetic predispositions to health issues which are real and unavoidable and can only be made more bearable with medical treatment.
willowleaf17 tbh I don't think she meant it like that. As a person who has pcos also I'm aware of how hard it can be for even other women to sympathise with your condition.
It's true the doctors even say maintain a healthy lifestyle and it can the body.
Actually I do NEED it. It doesn't cover up symptoms it prevents my body from releasing eggs which cause the cysts. As someone with multiple chronic conditions I hate hearing all the time how they can just be magically fixed by change of diet and exercise. Please next time don't give advice that is false or ignorant. It actually prevents me from being in the hospital and doesn't just cover up symptoms. It's is a treatment/prevention so it doesn't keep happening.
Eli really sucked at this. He came across so badly. And then the “okay ladies you win” - it wasn’t a competition? It was a piece of perspective to encourage you to stand with women.
to be fair, I can see how he thought taking one pill a day would be easy. I am still not convinced it would be as difficult as the guys said. It seems weird that that is the aspect of birth control they would focus on rather than the actual side effects. Everyone has annoying things they have to do, and plenty of people take medications every day.
@@supdude414 and thats just it isn’t it? You’re not convinced. And you wouldn’t be until you tried it. Consistently, day in, day out. At the same time every day. When life has so many challenges. When side effects can be literal brain fog and so forth.
They cannot go into the side effects as they aren’t taking birth control, but yes perhaps a segment asking women how it affects them would have been good. I do think that it’s important to highlight that even at the base level of just administering the medication is difficult to maintain.
Let's not forget the didn't have to deal with weight gain, moody effects of bc pills or any of the other mess a woman has. I mean sheet man my friend has a painful growth on her uterus, that worsens the pain and periods her period is nearly constant and she gets anemia everytime she also breaks out
@@supdude414 men..
@@Njx063 his task was literally, swallow a tic tac every day. All I am saying is do you really blame him for thinking it is easy?

i can hear the panties dropping en masse for the big guy.
Maddy S right!? does he have a single brother?
Maddy S right!
Maddy S I know! He was amazing
Yes! Even though he is not considered to be outwardly goodlooking, but his character is so damn attractive. E-lie on the other hand.....

Agreed! This should be a mandatory regular part of the school curriculum for teenage boys

Zach was amazing. Every woman needs a man like that in their life

As a pharmacist I am impressed that the prescription filling process was not a slap and go
Ashley Bivins Ahahh I go to the doctor, say I need the pill, doctor gives me a prescription and I go to the pharmacy and they literally give it to me like that.
Tamya Herbut I get a lecture on use in front of everyone in the grocery store... the lady I got plan b from around a different pharmacy was more discrete than that.
LadyJustify 😂 Idk it always works like that in Germany because The Gynecologist just writes it down on the prescription and the pharmacist just puts a sticker on it that tells you what to do. I'm very happy with that because I live in a very small town where you know *everyone*.
I don't take birthcontrol but I take 2 different pills (antidepressant and Ritalin) and they just give me those (or say they need to order it and I have to come back later the day.
On the other hand I also have no trouble taking both at the same time every day. My problems are the side effects. It is insane how strong they are.
But why does it take so long? In my country you just come in and show your prescription and they give it to you.
My face is my birth control
Catherine Gupton oof
Relatable
Birth control isn’t only used to control birth...
My life is my birth control
I felt that😂
Wow, Zach is boyfriend goals. A guy that sensitive and empathetic, yet strong and protective. OOF 😲
.........then there's eli
@@michqlle1862 😂😭✌️
sounds like a girl friend to me.
"we're looking for solidarity, not sympathy." yeeessss
Bailey Owens solidarity in what? It's a pill that women y choose to take !
Bailey Owens its not always by choice. Sometimes there are medical reasons and even if they werent its womens choice that needs to be supported
Andreea Matei I'm not sure why you're saying this? lol no duh it's a choice AND there are also people who take it for medical reasons. I take it for both reasons. I just quoted what Daysha said in the video 😒
Bailey Owens I'm sorry. It was for the girl that commented, i don't know why i was directed to you
Fatima Abdullah it's not always by choice. Sometimes there are medical reasons and even if they werent it's women's choice that needs to be supported
You should have handed Eli a "CongratulationsYOU are pregnant" certificate.
Then make him take care of a fake baby like what we had to do in health class.
he should have had to simulate pregnancy like the try guys
For 18 years.

Eli was a complete jerk in this honestly. But Zach was amazing.
Who is Eli and which one is zach?
Miss_Anonymous x literally says in the video
Miss_Anonymous x Eli is the one in the plaid shirt and Zach is in the green coat
Garrett too tho! Like I loved how he decided to dry swallow the pills so he didn’t get to enjoy them
same with Garett
Seeing a guy say “Oh I forgot my birth control” is honestly the best thing I’ve ever heard.

Zach was so sweet he considered how women felt about this
Boy:Your just trying to make this harder
Woman: this is normal
No, it's even easier than the real pills!! (no hormones nor side effects etc...)
Less than normal infact
I think this is a reference to the pharmacy and it was fairly normal. I would just have added the pharmacist losing the prescription all the time.
Way easier than taking actual brith control, all they have to do is eat a mint Lmaø
i like how you said "boy" instead of "man" lmao
Aww "I cried a little because she's getting pumped with hormones that she probably doesn't want"
Aisha Zee lmaoo
Aisha Zee Zach is just the sweetest
Did you go for an exame before taking birth control? Sometimes the pill is not for every women, as there are other options to use as forms of birth control. I am a man, who has taken birth control, but only for my acne skin condition.
Alleria Sunfury I had no idea that the medication that I have been taking was birth control, and when I mentioned to a coworker who is going to school for nursing was wondering why I was taking birth control. I had no idea it was birth control.
WHERE IS MY ZACH 😭😭😭
It only makes me think of my dad who didn't want kids and blamed my mom for not taking birth control when she got pregnant of me... "If it was such a concern, why didn't you just wear a condom instead of putting all of the responsability on mom, dad?"
raph009 YES👏QUEEN👏
I hope you don't mind me saying this, but your Dad sounds kinda douchey.
GO GURLLLLLL
Yass queen slay snatch those weaves
raph009 mhm go you
Fun fact: when i got off the pill i got insane acne that even after 4 years of Treatment isn't gone. While on the pills i was dry like the sahara, gained weight and got depressed. My Ex (boyfriend at that time) complained constantly about me not liking the pill. Not not taking the pill, not liking the pill! Lol i'm Glad i left both the pill and the ex
lol no there’s diff types of pill
I hated taking my birth control. I am still trying to get rid of my skin discoloration/ melasma that was caused by my birth control( took them 5 years ago). When I was on my birth control, I was having crazy reactions to food; so I got off of it and it felt like someone had their hand up my vagina, and was twisting my insides.
which one did you take?

Me too... I stoped taking it because it messed up my hormones too much, without that aspect is just inconvenient -.-

@@x_jun_x it's called birth control for a reason. Taking it means considering that reason. Lololol
Well dude, I don't feel good either way because of that shrimp in your pants so stfu.
@@com.passionatebitch ACTUALLY, there are stories of girls getting pregnant WHILE on the pill.
Man my boyfriend has told me thank you so many times for me taking birth control and has offered to pay for it for me I’m lucky to have a guy who does try his best to understand and help
I've been taking birth control since I was twelve because I have severe pain and a extremely heavy flow. It's not only taking for "birth control" but for so many other reasons, I wish people would realize that.
Just wondering- totally don’t have to answer- but do you have endometriosis or something related?
Cookie Cat I take the pill because of my irregular periods. I would have a flow for a full month then it stops and returns a couple months later unexpectedly
i like pizza I don’t take the pill- but anything that works for you! I personally turn into an ibuprofen pill popper every month but that’s just me!
Same, got bad iron deficiency. Was pretty much only awake for 6-8 hours a day due to it at one point when I was twelve. Also passed out, nothing quite like waking up on the floor alone and disoriented. Parents didn’t notice since they were at work, but I am pretty sure there were other times I just passed out and they thought I fell asleep in weird places.
I was lucky that I could afford the more expensive option, since some have severe side affects.
My bff has severe anemia, without birth control she probably wouldn't stop bleeding (which in turn makes her anemia worse). I also wish people knew this is about more than babies, it's healthcare.
The guy in the glasses.... gets it, he has a girlfriend because he’s such a good catch.
Longboard Stoner it’s fake
Carlos_Perez Z your mum’s fake
The respect he has for women makes me cry 😭👏🏻
Just imagine some random person sitting next to them when the alarm goes off, and then be talking to some other person like "dude I swear, this guy's alarm went off and he went and had ONE SINGLE tic tac. He had a set time to have a tic tac"

They should have made Eli "become pregnant" and have to walk around with a fake belly for 9 weeks for having missed that ONE pill!! lol
nimaicupel YESSSSS
nimaicupel good idea
nimaicupel Hahahah yasss
love this idea! especially since he "lost" his period footage and we all know what a missed period can mean.
nimaicupel That's how my son got here lol
They literally only had the easiest part of birth control! Too bad they couldn't simulate the nausea, head rushes, migraines, dizziness, bloating, and numerous other side effects that happen every day...
I am 11 and my gma makes me take birth control IT SUCKS
That’s probably because they took tic tacs and not actual pills
Shawna Candler it's crazy what women will put up with just to receive a creampie from their bf. Pretty sad world we live in.
IfYouOnlyKnew lmao if you'd stop sniffing your own farts for two seconds and actually talk to a woman you'd realize it's generally the man that does the pressuring....on second thought though i don't think i'd want to subject any woman to a conversation with you

@@daepicducky1345 the sad truth
Since Eli missed it, he should have worn the pregnancy belly for the remainder of the time! With a bag filled with fake pee that would leak, like us women have 2 go through when being pregnant!
Boo hoo, men have to go through different problems than us and we dont understand that they have gender specific problems too! WAAAH!
Zayden Edwards Lol chill
Yes and his pee bag should be inside the waist of tight pants so every time he laughs, coughs, or sneezes the pee come out in his underwear.
So maybe take all the necessary precautions to NOT get pregnant if you know the ordeal it is and aren't prepared for it? But oh no, it's much easier to try and shame men.
@@Razzy1312 no one is shaming men. Just showing them what we go through. If no women got pregnant because they weren't willing to go through the ordeal, we as humans would cease to exist. Stop being so defensive. This isn't about you personally, but if you feel so attacked by watching this video, then maybe you should avoid the whole ordeal by taking the necessary precautions to NOT watch things like this.

"My girlfriend does things for me and one of them is taking birth control pills". LOVE him! Men don't think about the fact that we put medications (which have side effects) into our systems.
Or... use other means of protection, if u dont want to?
Cyvan birth control isn't just taken to prevent pregnancy, some girls take it because it helps them with cramps
Lilah H if women use them for cramps that’s not a a thing a woman does for her significant other it’s a thing she does for herself
The Outcast condoms aren't as sure as pills and comdom + pill is better than just one of the two
Condoms are not 100% sure, Condoms + Birth Control are basically the best option.
Everyone's talking about Zach and Eli and I'm over here like Garrett went home between bars to take his pill. Lol
The Evil Banana YAAAS someone noticed that too!!
Honestly he should have gotten in trouble for that. For a lot of birth control you can't take it around the time you consume alcohol.
Plus he dry swallowed it as well!
I have never head of that before?
ive never been on bc but why cant you dry-swallow?
Gotta love Zach! He actually cares about his girlfriend.

🐙 MantasU90 It's how I'm choosing to describe him, nice try tho
Physically taking a pill isn’t hard. Mine are on my desk next to my bed. I take it as soon as my morning alarm goes off. The hard thing is the side effects: weight gain, mood swings, headaches, loss of labido etc
ChixWithaOpinion I had a HORRIBLE time with it. I decided to do it @8pm and was rarely home so I changed it to 8 am and it was still not easy as I’ve never taken pills before. It’s a routine that takes time to get use to
@@bizzybee438 I could never find a good time to take it, my sleep and work schedule is too messy. It absolutely destroyed my mood (I was constantly sad and angry) and my libido was suddenly non-existent and took MONTHS to get back after going off the pill.
I stopped taking mine, i got prescribed last year, no one told me a side affect was depression, I attempted suicide because I felt so bad, if I had known at the start it was the pill causing it I would have stopped after the first month but i suffered through a whole year... never again, I'll settle for my month long bleeding and anemia over the pill
What bothered me about taking the pills is that every day I felt like I was poisoning myself.
Polina Tkachenko I hope you are better now. Birth control changed my whole personality back then when i used it. Never again.
Eli doesn’t realize he can see different time zones on he phone lol

Thank you Zach. Never pressure a woman to get on birth control if she's too uncomfortable. Every woman is different, but bc can make your entire body (and brain/mental health) go through an entire roller coaster. I studied neuroscience, and the way hormones can change even the way you THINK, it's pretty incredible but it can be challenging. Unfortunately, bc was not for me. I really tried to work with it for 7 months, but my mental health was completely at risk. :(
TheMACKitten I had a period for a whole year from the implant, got the depo shot felt insane the whole last month. Worst feeling ever. Have latex sensitivity. The struggle is severe. I feel for the all the ladies taking bc out here.
It is so annoying when people are like ”just taka birth control”, well i quess some girls are about to die then
I think it's really sad knowing that a lot of women have to use birth control :( Based on a quick google search, pills are 99% effective if used perfectly, 90% otherwise. Condoms are 98% effective for perfect use, 85% if not. Condoms can protect from STDs, pills can't. Then there's the side effects of taking pills... I mean, personally, I don't think taking pills are worth it considering all the stuff it will do to my body :c ...Of course, what you do to your body is your decision, I just hope that all women are at least given that choice...
Right!
yeah I was taking the pill for acne and I am pretty sure that taking the pill coincided when I started suffering from depression yelp.
I think this video was really well put together, but I wish it had hit harder on the fact that not all women take birth control to avoid pregnancy. Some take it to balance hormones (that's why I take it), to decrease how heavy their period flow is, decrease the risk for ovarian cysts, and many more reasons. But overall, this was a good video to show the daily frustration of taking birth control, and I'm glad BuzzFeed shined a bit of light on the subject.
Wes Is a Mess I relate. After I started taking it, there's nearly no blood at all when I'm on my period, and I don't get as many cramps. That's the reason I'm grateful for birth control. Not the fact that it lowers the chance of pregnancy, but the fact that it doesn't feel like someone is ripping out my ovaries with a rusty nail.
Taylor-Chan exactly. im glad that i don't feel like im about to die every month aha
I was about to post something similar to this. I had to start taking birth control after I was in the hospital for being anemic because my period was a month long.
Kayla Aldridge While I had to start just to help my hormones, it's also helped the length of my periods. Sometimes, I would have periods that would last up to two weeks. After I started, they've shortened to 4-6 days.
Kayla Aldridge that is literally exactly what is happening to me right now
Zach: “Men just let them decided don’t pressure them, just let them decide. It’s their body it’s their choice.”
Zach gives me hope for future generations.
So they think birth control should be free... but not women’s sanitary products... 😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡
*screams into pillow for hour
Just an edit/side note
I am slightly educated on the matter. I personally think they both should be free. I get that birth control has other purposes. I’m sick of people comparing it to toilet paper though, Lori Johnson.
What's your point? Birth control literally saved my life from my horrible unknown bleedning that gave me anemia for 2 years. I even had to get many blood bags for it, so it's good for those that suffer like me or have something similar.
And I agree with the pad and tampons too btw!
¿Por que no los dos?
Why cant both just be free
Making sanitary products free would be like making toilet paper and toothpaste free. Just because everyone needs it does not mean that it should be free.
Maybe they should reduce the price. Some boxes of tampons are $9. That kind of crosses the price limit, and it is not what we should be paying for it.
Zach is so understanding.

Ugh I pity any girl who has the misfortune of dating Eli, that guy just straight up SUCKS. foh.
As a boy I don’t claim Eli
My periods used to be so bad that I would miss at LEAST 2 days of school each month. That builds up to about missing 15-20 days of the year. Birth control helped me to not only take control of my education, but take control over my life. The cramps were so bad that I couldn’t even walk.
I don't take birth control but I do miss a lot of school because of cramps
Docs need to take womens pain seriously and schools/work places should have days off for women who have difficult periods. It can be physically impairing. Sorry you have to go through this, my family has bad periods too and you should ask your doc about possible ovarian cysts too cause that can be related to the pain
I don't take the pill but when my period comes it hurts and i just take a pill for that and that's it
It was the exact same for me!! they were so painful the first few days of my period and no (safe) amount of painkillers would help. It was honestly debilitating and taking birth control makes that part so much easier for me.
I feel you. I have to sleep on my desk because it's the only thing that doesn't hurt. And it doesn't allow me to go home. I MEAN SERIOUSLY BRUH.
Keith was in this video for like few seconds and he nailed it 😂😂
"E-lie"

L Crooks get yourself a Zach
Which one was he?
(I’m new to this channel)
“Whatever women just gotta use birth control and should never need abortion!” Men can’t even remember a once a day pill themselves. 🙄🙄🙄😑
Not to mention birth control pills aren't 100% effective, just like most things
The public shaming Eli went through was amazing! 👏🏼👏🏼
Tahiti Kruse
...how is that amazing??
@gailjj yet if it was inversed you would be having a fit.
@Lady Destiny at least he was one of the only guys who volunteered
DAYSHA HAD TOO MUCH FUN WITH THIS😂LIKE BEING THE PHARMACIST AND MAKING A CONTAINER
Arooj Saeed Honestly I would be like that too 😂
Birth control is not just to prevent pregnancy. I take birth control to regulate my period. Some people don't understand that different types of birth control do different things.
Armyy
Sarah Novak yup some people really don't understand me.start from my family.
I completely understand. Because I take birth control for the same exact reason. That is what some people will never understand. Those who think birth control is so women can screw around and not end up pregnant. Or those who think women shouldn't ever take birth control because women are meant to make babies. I hope people will start to see that birth control is so much more.
Thank youuu!
Honey Bliss birth control is used for that too but mostly it's still for BIRTH CONTROL.
Idk why at first I thought they were gonna take REAL birth control pills 😂😂
I thought the same. Lol
Same
I actually thought men would be taking real birth control pills....
BaraPersson That'd be a clinical trial. The real trials were shut down because the men got uncomfortable. What a world.
nehemie1255 they didnt get uncomfortable. They experienced bad side effects. A lot of them wanted to commit suicide. Before u try to trivialize because "oooh poor men cant handle things me, a W O M A N, can do" try to do ur research okay boo?
Koko Lear Those are regular and proclaimed side effects of the approved and prescribed versions for women. I do research for a living hun. Handle those feelings.
Koko Lear Im assuming you meant can't not can? Good luck boo.
nehemie1255 then u should be fired
ZACH GETS IT SO WELL WE NEED MORE MEN LIKE HIM
What the title should be :Grown men complain about having ticktacks. Lol :)
its just funny that they are complaining about eating candy everyday like dude life ain't that rough😂
What's a ticktack?
@@hazy5959 its a mint
apart from Zach at least
I mean its better than click bate because when i saw this i was physically appalled by the tittle
Zach is a legend. He really made sure to think and inform himself on issues & it's amazing to see GOAT
"Women want solidarity, not sympathy." #preach
One time I dropped the last pill into my shaggy area rug and I literally was on my hands and knees for 2hrs looking for it. I found it and haven’t gotten pregnant. Victory for me.
Miranda M Oh my goodness! So I’m not the only one who has done this! I’ve also accidentally dropped one down the sink drain, and that was terrifying.
Same. I have a small heart attack each time I drop one. The damn things are smaller than these tic tags they're using for the video!
👏👏👏
That’s why I always keep a spare pack at home for such situations haha
U shoula picked up the rug and shook it
Daysha killed it with this idea
I love her for it. Soooo much.
It was a stupid idea and the biggest click bait ever they used tic tac’s and scripted the whole thing
@@lCarlosoba Could you explain more objectively why it was "stupid"?
@@lalune1235 there is literally no need for this video. Men don't take birth control, it's like making women wear condoms. It makes no sense.
@@rain-wk5qy there is something called Femidom... Sooo.... And if I am not mistaken it was made to put others in ones shoes. It can help teach people social and emotional competences even if it is just a little bit.
I can see Eli's dating pool narrowing down more and more as the video progressed.
Daysha, this video was faaaantastically produced and you are now my role model.
Zach gets it. I loved listening to him speak. Very refreshing to hear him reflect. A+ guy
I love that one guy. We all love that one guy.
BooksAndBroadway *swoon*
BooksAndBroadway who?
Frauke Thoms Zach! The one with the girlfriend. He's the best.
No we do not.
___ we get it. You don't like dude. 👏👏👏👏👏 now go away.
When he said “Imagine if you knew you were doing this for the next 15 years” SIR THATS LIFE FOR WOMEN. FROM PERIODS TO BIRTH CONTROL TO MENOPAUSE- I hate it here
"I cant believe the last part of his name is so significant"
"what?"
'E-LIE' lmaooo
caught in elie
My name Ellie :3
zach is a good lad, every girl deserves a boyfriend like that.
such a sweetheart
Now that is a fact!
Except the ones who are a conplete pos
And not everyone takes birth control to prevent pregnancy, which is something I dont think a lot of people take into consideration too.
Exactly! I'm scrolling through the comments and people not informed...at all!
Ulptai • I'm asexual but I still take birth control to regulate my period
Ulptai • I take it to treat amenorrhea
Ulptai • I take it to control ovarian cysts and irregular cycles.
Ulptai •
6:10 He cried about it...He's a keeper.
You know it's Daysha who edited the video with all those sneaking comments written about Eli.
Cyn V the description says it’s by kristin but i wouldn’t be surprised if daysha helped lol
Savannah lol it doesn’t say Kristin edited it, says that dr Kristen was in the video
Buzzfeed is challenging men to have prostate cancer
Allahu-A how? by giving them tic tacs?
Eli acted cocky and like he didn't care but Zach's mindset is like every girls wet dream 😂😂 he was super sweet
Rosie Dispari gotta get me a man like Zach lol
Rosie Dispari HEY there's another Rosie in the world instead of me❤️LOVE TO ALL THE ROSIES!!
Eli is lucky he's cute. Zach has impressed me in other videos as well.
My bf looks and acts like Zach 😍
Ekaekto nothing to brag about lmao
Eli is so out of touch with women it's actually pretty sad.
i know, i had a crush on him but the more i see him the more i realize what a jerk he is.
I know he's being so rude
How is he being rude? I had to take a pill every day for a month at a certain time after I had surgery. Sure its hard but you have to do what you gotta do. Being committed to a responsibility can be hard at times but you have to get used to it.
WhereMyMemes What about people who have to inject themselves everyday, as you say responsibility.
I just feel badly for any partners he has or had
Bring a legitimate concern to your girlfriend and have her say, “you are emotional because you are on your period.”
Underrated comment.
Zach's girlfriend is a lucky girl- what a sweet guy :)
Libby Danielson
Wow must be easy to say when you're writing that behind a screen. :-)
KittyC. Ohhhhh!!
the big guy is so intelligent and in-tune ❤
thataprilgirl, Mr. Pretty-green-eyes is 💯 % in my eyes.
thataprilgirl
Yeesss Zach gets it. His girlfriend is a lucky girl.
thataprilgirl yeah he's so sweet he's a great guy looks like he's gf is lucky 🍀
thataprilgirl yeah he is so down to earth and understanding, great guy
if the pills such a big deal why not just wear a condom
We need more men like Zach in this world. ♡
We definitely don`t.
lol why not? ^
Jael Suidan their wouldn't be any women left for the rest of us
+clorox bleach good yall dont deserve women
Jael Suidan Informed people really are the best to talk to. They have more understanding than those who are ignorant.
I wish there were more guys like Zach. He had so much empathy and literally thought of it everything women go through. Eli on the other hand, I feel sorry whoever he ends up being in a relationship with cuz he is insensitive, unwilling to learn and have empathy. Garrett and Zach really got what the test meant.
People who are saying the concept is stupid clearly don't understand it. This is basically an experiment where the point is more important than the outcome; it didn't matter if they failed or not, the point is men are making decisions about your bodies and they have no idea what the decisions even are that they are making. It's supposed to motivate women to stand up for themselves and encourage men to stand with them. Well done, Deysha ❤️
Yes! Very well said! 😄
Why did it say they have to dry swallow the pills? Do you have to dry swallow birth control? I thought you could take it with water or something.
Katelyn Steffens
You can use water so idk why either I guess since a tic-tax is smaller it doesn't matter
👍👏
It kills me that Eli was making fun of women for talking about having to deal with it but then he was the biggest baby about it. Guess what, women deal with SOOO much more than just having to remember to take it, and some women get deathly ill on the pill (myself included) and have to deal with men like that (and even other women) that don't understand how difficult it is. I physically can't take the pill because I get so sick I can't eat and can barely do anything because I feel like I'm going to puke my guts out at any second, not like "oh my tummy is upset" but so bad that I literally can't think about anything but trying not to throw up, I couldn't even get through a three month trial of BC pills. Every other form of birth control can be JUST AS BAD if not worse, and you shouldn't have to experience it to understand that and empathize with it.
then dont take it lol go find other stuff
Kelly Grogan my mom was exactly like that so she had to get those t shaped things put in her body
Quit bitching it’s not my fault you choose to put chemicals in your body that make you ill and don’t have the common sense to stop eating it
@@Garbo38 well it's not her fault that you don't have the common sense to understand she pretty much needs it so stfu, you have no right to come at her when you clearly don't understand it
I feel you... 😔
Zach you are truly an amazing man and your girlfriend is a lucky woman.
Kayla Marie Clark Ik right mark
buzzed rules they can't interact with the comments ;(
serene polo h
Kayla Marie Clark Zack is so sweet
Just get the depo shot
WE MUST PROTECT ZACH AT ALL TIMES😫❤️
