Brett Cooper Talks Marriage, Motherhood, And Feminism In 2024

Daily Wire host Brett Cooper opened up about marriage, motherhood, and the “quiet revolution of young women” against feminism in 2024.

Speaking to Chris Williamson on his “Modern Wisdom” podcast, the 22-year-old host of “The Comments Section” opened up about her decision to get married in March despite being told by people on the Right that it wasn’t a wise choice. 

“It’s been wonderful,” Cooper said. “I have always known I wanted to be married. I’ve always known that I wanted to be a mother. I had a career in Hollywood, I was a child actor for 10 plus years.”

“And I remember I had a conversation with my best friend of the time, we were walking through Burbank. And I brought up a concern that I had had basically since I started in this industry and started working with adults…I got to see how they were operating, how they balanced their career and family and marriage, and I did not like what I saw,” Cooper continued.

“So, yes it is pretty radical, but even in this industry of being in media, being more on the Right, I still heard it. Still heard it from conservatives, like ‘you’re on the up and up, are you sure you want to do that?’ from people that are pro-family and pro-marriage,” the DW host added. 

Later, Cooper talked about how Gen Z feels about motherhood and she pointed out a recent study that found “over half of women do believe that motherhood is just as or more important than a career…these are not conservatives. These are just normal women.”

“They don’t want to brand themselves as conservatives, they want to get married,” she added. “They believe that hookup culture is bad and they believe motherhood is important. And so I think deep down, because these are biological instincts, I do believe that women have those urges and want that…there are more women than people think that are waking up.”

The DW host explained, “There have been an influx of women just on my social media alone speaking out about cultural issues, social issues, political issues, talking about voting for [former President Donald] Trump.”

“These are not political accounts, these are random influencers just girls on their you know private personal social medias talking about the things that Biden is doing in regards to Title IX, the transgender issue,” Cooper said.

“That they have been completely woken up realizing, ‘oh I don’t actually want this anymore,’” she added. “Mix that in with the women that are in their 30s, they get made fun of constantly on X for crying in their car about the fact that they can’t meet a guy because they prioritize their career over dating.”

Williamson then asked Brett if she thought we were “seeing a kind of quiet revolution of young women beginning to see the importance of motherhood,” and she said yes.

Cooper agreed that the “push back against casual sex, against hookup culture” is somewhat tied in with a “conservative movement,” as Williamson mentioned.

“I think that there is a lot of overlap, but I don’t think that this is a lot of women suddenly being like, ‘you know I’m conservative’… that’s not what it is. It’s women being intelligent and having self awareness and looking at the world around them and going, ‘this doesn’t sit right,’” the DW host said. 

“I think that… in general, women are looking around going ‘oh my gosh, what we’ve been told and fed for the last 20-30 years, none of this makes sense. We need to take a step back and reevaluate and think we’re seeing this in real time,” she added.
