She emphasizes the need for women to prioritize their own needs and not to justify or defend their positions to 50/50 men. Elle points out that being in a relationship with a man is labor and risk, and that the 50/50 concept often only applies to finances, while women still end up doing the majority of physical and emotional labor. Elle suggests that women who live with their parents rent-free and debt-free are being set up for success by their parents, a privilege that 50/50 men may potentially undermine. She concludes by advising women to leave 50/50 men alone, as they are in survival mode and are not likely to provide the support and financial stability.
