In this episode, Elle dissects the viral TikTok trend where women post videos claiming "my boyfriend said he'll get me [something expensive] if this gets [insane amount] views." Elle examines how these social media challenges function as modern humiliation rituals that normalize below-minimum relationship standards. She shares a striking example where an influencer purchased Coach bags for a creator whose husband set impossible conditions, illustrating how these trends reveal societal issues around women's worth. Elle concludes with her signature wisdom: "You don't need a rich man. You need a generous man," emphasizing that women deserve partners who materialize their desires when capable, rather than subjecting them to public challenges for basic consideration.
