In this episode, Elle discusses the topic of dating norms, focusing on the belief that a woman should never pay on dates. She reacts to a video showing a man filming his date's reaction when asked to split the bill, stating that the man was looking for validation but was instead criticized. Elle argues that women, by virtue of investing in their appearance, have already paid their part. She brings up the societal expectation for women to look a certain way, suggesting that men contribute to these beauty expenses. Elle insists that women are the 'prize' and should be treated and respected as such. She advises women to block any man who refuses to invest in them. Elle emphasizes the importance of self-respect and advises her listeners to abandon any situation that undermines their worth. She concludes by encouraging women to leave men who don't meet their standards, asserting that men's personal development is not a woman's responsibility.
