Hot Topic - Maribel Aber

Audra Lowe: Welcome back everybody! It’s time for our topics. And I'm joined by Better’s financing crew expert Maribel Aber. Good to see you back again. Maribel Aber: Hello! Great to see you. Audra Lowe: Okay, we’re going to try to get through a couple of different topics here. We’ll see how many we can get through. We’re girls we can chat we can do it fast. Maribel Aber: We can chat! Audra Lowe: Alright, there was a poll in UK Daily Express. It said one out of four women were fed up with the pain of pregnancy, PMS and all the things that come along with being a woman and they would rather be a man. 9% said that they think that man had it better and easier physically speaking. Are there some days, because I’ll admit there are some days— Maribel Aber: I'm going to say I think that you should be all over this one honestly. Audra Lowe: I would just rather be a man. Do you think it’s that easier? Maribel Aber: I have to tell you my husband is the biggest baby when he’s like sick. Let me tell you I don’t even know he’d be able to have a baby it’s just impossible. Audra Lowe: Right! Maribel Aber: I have to be home taking sick to take care of him. You have no idea how he would last for nine months. Audra Lowe: And how they got along before you got married. And I feel bad that we don’t have any man here to defend their honor. But just the cramps alone I think would get man. Forget being sick just cramps every single month. Maribel Aber: I think they also have this in sex. I think they have this sympathetic cramp time too. I don’t know if you ever get this too, but it’s like we’re out to dinner and I'm feeling uncomfortable talk about PMS and all of a sudden you have your husband saying I don’t feel good either. Why? It’s because you don’t feel good. So no, no. Audra Lowe: It’s a different story. Maribel Aber: It’s completely different. Audra Lowe: The hair issues, clothing, even friendships it just feels difficult to be a woman. Maribel Aber: I’ll tell you, you know they're making spanks for men now. Audra Lowe: They’re menks. Maribel Aber: Menks. Audra Lowe: Yes, yes. But how many men are actually going to wear menks. And when they put them on they're going to say they're smart. They're uncomfortable. Men would never squeeze their foot into these shoes. Maribel Aber: I think that’s why guys have probably created these wonderful sexy designs because— Audra Lowe: There you go. I have to say there are some days that it seems like it would be much easier to be a man and it just seem like they think differently, they just do things differently, it’s a more simple way. Now, in weddings too. That’s the other thing you have got to pay for the wedding. When you are the woman obviously your parents pay for the wedding. Maribel Aber: That’s it! That’s true. Audra Lowe: And speaking of weddings, one of our producers Ashley is getting married as well. She’s getting married next year, she just got engaged and Ashley if you're listening I hope that you don’t do this. There is a woman who got married recently and we saw her photo online. Her entire gown is made out of a wedding cake—the entire gown. People are walking out to her and literally eating the gown. Maribel Aber: Her? Audra Lowe: Yes! I don’t think it’s a good idea. It’s different but not a good idea. Maribel Aber: I’ll go in the other side though. Just to play devil’s advocate it is artwork. It’s a once in a lifetime experience for somebody. And she is covered. Audra Lowe: For now until people started eating through the cake. But she can’t move. Maribel Aber: I know. Audra Lowe: She can’t move. You can’t take photos. Everybody has got to come up to you. I mean it’s a different idea, but a lot of people are saying I'm not too sure about all that. Maribel Aber: I'm worried about the sanitary. Audra Lowe: That’s my next questions. Maribel Aber: The sanitary factor too. Audra Lowe: Yeah. No one has plates they're just digging through the dress itself. Maribel Aber: Right. And how close are you going to get to a person. Because I was just—I don’t know if you saw this—I was just watching this in news the other day. There is a snowman sculpture. You're talking about wedding cake I'm doing the same thing. And they made it of I think Venus de’Milo. And it was this whole thing where people were like upset because they thought she should be covered. They are in a neighborhood. Audra Lowe: I did see that. She had on a bikini at first and then—yeah! Maribel Aber: Right. So I'm thinking you know, you’ve got to cover the bride. Audra Lowe: The difference is that one is going to melt. This one you got to wait for people to eat and then you can walk out of it. But I know Ashley’s wedding is going to be absolutely fantastic though. Alright thank you very much Maribel. It’s nice to have you here. Maribel Aber: Thank you. Audra Lowe: Stay with us we’ll be right back.
