I've never seen this video before. Pretty awesome. Especially how the female broadcaster shut down the debate as soon as Rudov caught the other in a contradiction (claiming to not need a man, yet takes his money).
At one point, the woman even said her head was hurting. Real truth does hurt.
When the broadcaster was saying that men judge themselves by the amount of money they have, the car the drive, the country club they go to, it would've been great if Rudov could've showed she was really projecting the feminine's own judging of men by that criteria.
Perhaps he could've said something like,
"Men judge each other based on their character, principals and actions. As far as cars and all the rest, a discerning man can appreciate quality and it's value and will natuarlly pay it's price if he can afford it. Should he drive a Corrolla if he can afford a BMW? Should he live in the ghetto if he can afford a nice neighborhood? It's women who are judging the man superficially by his clothes, cars, and status and use that criteria to determine a man's worth. Your denial and projection of it onto me is so you won't have to see your own egotism in this regard"
Not an easy thing to notice, think of, and say on the fly in the heat of an argument. It took me several re-writes to get it down and I feel it still falls short of expressing the significance of projection, especially in that moment.
And yet even if Rudov could've pulled that maneuver off, the bitches would've just gasped, grabbed for a bottle of Tylenol and accused him of being a Freudian pervert, before cutting the program off.
