A hilarious celebration of lifelong female friendship | Jane Fonda and Lily Tomlin

[@mirandabug]

This might sound silly, but as a young woman, I look at these two and can finally see through the veil of ageism in our culture. These women are beautiful and strong, and wear their age well. They inspire me to live in a healthy and cheerful way and help me to recognize that life doesn't cut off after 30, or 50, or even 70. There is always more to look forward to and it can get better instead of worse.

[@kellynewman6374]

Miranda Lorett, “even 70” 😂😂😂

[@buzoff4642]

A lot of our ageism is from living location transient lives driven by college and job relocating. Gone is Gram lives either across town, or living in the same house. We're also living silo'ed, by age, by income and by profession. Gone is everyone from President/VP, to white collar, to manufacture, to janitor, in the same building. Zero relationship between the groups now, splayed across the country if not the planet. We're going to have to fix what we've broken, what you've inherited. Straight out of the movie Animal House, We f'ed up, we trusted them.

[@gordontheengineswifedr.nirmal]

It’s not silly it’s a wonderful insight! They r ageless role models. Imagine if young people acted more like these two- refined, yet silly, demure, yet always youthful. A perfect balance without the ignorant attention seeking falseness of modern youth

[@lola_nenek]

I began searching about them after i’ve watched GRACE AND FRANKIE. They have changed my melancholic view of life being old. I suddenly realized that am still young at 53 and can be vivacious! I want more tv series of them😍

[@audreydemott963]

You can see how they embody exactly what they’re saying in their own friendship with each other. They’re incredibly candid but respectful, kind and caring for the other. Their body language alone shows how comfortable they are with each other and how much kindness and love is in their friendship. Female friendship is such a blessing indeed ❤️

Lighten up, people. Men and women have different kind friendships, studies have been done, yes, there are exceptions...but for those who are baby boomers, it has been a bit of a wild ride. These women are talking about female friendships, which has been proven to help us remain healthier and live longer. Be thankful to the women who paved the path before us, I had to protest to wear pants to public school. Think about that for a moment...and think about being told to sit down little lady, because a boy had something to say...lets honor the brave women who spoke out, giving the women of today the right to stand in equality, to be a chef, a doctor, or whatever they dream of becoming.

One friend has been there for me for 35+ years, others not nearly as long. I value all of them.

[@kfedup27]

This comment section has become its own unofficial study of how people can hear the same words and glean completely different meanings from it. My personal interpretation is that we, each and every one of us, are born with the capacity to share the same kind of relationships with each other as anyone else, regardless of gender, social class, etc. All that changes once outside forces begin to act on us, be those forces patriarchal, matriarchal, religious, economical, or fill in the blank. For us to deny that these outside forces exist is a bit ludicrous. If anything, all the comments I've read are proof that the force is strong with many commenters.

[@missfunkadilly]

+kfedup27 Lol yes. Ironic isn't it.

[@nikiniki8212]

I agree. We heard the same message. It’s like racism or prejudice. Little kids don’t care. We love each other. We become influenced by society and that’s when prejudice arises. The macho attitude or the I am just a woman or whatever comes out. Without the negative influences of society, we would all possibly be more compassionate and loving people of everyone including ourselves regardless of our differences. But then life maybe a little boring I suppose. 🤔

[@marias7599]

Very wise comment

[@youtuber6185]

kfedup27 I felt it was uplifting and supportive of close female friendships. But Lily said women have been marginalized and have not been studied much. That’s a load of garbage. Women haven’t been studied ? Cmon..... just trying to get status through the group identity politics hierarchy of victimization. Like .... we’re not black but we are suppressed women. How Rediculous.

[@kgbeezr75]

@@youtuber6185 I think she was specific though and said that studies hadn't been done on how stress effects women, only on how stress effects men...the really interesting bit being that it seems to add longevity for females, whereas the opposite was true for men. That's what I thought they were saying anyway. Certainly women have been prominent in studies of other areas.

[@zoponex3224]

The sort of male friendship they describe is a sad affliction of the west. Men in the east are able to love and even touch each other lovingly, just as women do. We need to make it okay for men to show their need for and ability to love. It is the ridiculous macho culture that has taken that from them and I, like these amazing ladies, feel sad that men have to miss out on that. Think of Rumi and his Shami; has there ever been a deeper, fuller love than that? Men can have it to - it is part of what feminism offers.

[@kgbeezr75]

It seems sort of noteworthy that while that's true, of men in the east, they also tend to be more homophobic (with a few exceptions). So it would be interesting for someone to tie that in and explain it. Is there any relationship? Does widespread homophobia make it ok for men to be close because they don't fear being seen as gay? Does the liberalization (gay friendliness, "metrosexuality") of the west make men fearful of seeming un-masculine (often associated with being gay, but unfairly)? 100 years ago men in the west seemed closer, you see them holding hands in photos (and they're presumed to not be gay), but gay people weren't even really considered on any level then, for most it would have been an impossibility for someone they know to be gay. In many ways it seems like men have progressed, but as that's happened the "toxic masculinity" aspect has intensified too.

[@BrendaRodriguez-ei3yf]

I love what you said I agree 100%:)

[@joyling5976]

I don’t think it’s the women’s problem “to make it okay for men to show their need for and ability to love”. Men need to take up responsibility for themselves. Women can support them. But, no one gets anywhere in life, unless they want change in themselves. Just a plain fact of life.

[@gperson1967]

You can always tell which groups are not in charge of society by witnessing how reluctant people are to be associated with them in any way.

[@29aaronjones]

@@joyling5976 many women call men names like " they must be gay" when men express their feelings or get along really well. Many WOMEN accuse men of looking gay if they have close relationships and talk about their feelings to each other. How is this possible? why is this done? well, I suspect it is some kind of vicious jealousy and an attempt to keep the attention on them. Pure selfless instinct. care to comment?

That is so true, at the risk of using gender stereotypes I actually do think that women are more able to be vulnerable and disclose their deepest emotions and struggles, but only due to the irritating construction of 'masculinity' that society expects of men. I encourage every one of my male friends to do the same because it's so important that they speak about their feelings and struggles too, men need to feel they can speak about feelings too.

[@jtrain5615]

It's not threatening. These women are cool, but they're making incorrect statements. For one thing, it's a proven fact that men die earlier than woman, because they make up 90 percent of all high risk and hazardous vocations, such as: active military service, police officers, fire-fighters, construction workers, etc.

[@renatajustkowski3282]

That is certainly not WHY men die earlier. First, your percentage is incorrect, it's much lower than 90%. Second, those variables (occupation, income . . .) are all factored out of the equation. Also, you fail to take into account that only women can birth babies, and many women still die of complications from pregnancy, either at birth or decades later. That's also factored out. What they focus on are diseases and natural causes. What they're saying is true.

[@jtrain5615]

I don't know where you're getting your information, but it certainly IS "why men die earlier." The occupations, etc., are ABSOLUTELY NOT included in the equation, and these studies have been conclusive for decades. I know it hurts the current extreme feminist's narrative, but facts are facts. Men die earlier because of the higher risk jobs/positions they overwhelmingly hold, such as: military service, police officers, fire-fighters, construction workers, etc. - and according to many studies, earlier deaths in men are due to financial stress due to 73% of American men being the primary bread-winner (*that number has been in sharp decline since 2001.) BTW - giving birth (while not a walk on the beach) is not a health hazard.

These two share a wonderful chemistry in Grace and Frankie. I didn't know they were close friends.

[@johncarbona7343]

Love them both. Always have. I so remember Lily on laugh-in. The telephone operator and the child in the huge chair.

[@twominutetips]

Excellent interview. Thank you.

[@BigfootForestVanIsle]

I absolutely adore Lily Tomlin. What a mentor! What an iconic woman.

[@MagaCrazy62]

Truly a wonderful interview.

[@susanr5546]

I love their intelligence and their humor, and I love it that men are becoming increasingly open to expressing themselves. I think, too, of the great friendships I have seen between men. I have five superb women friends and I can so relate to what these three women are speaking of.

Hi Susan hope you’re okay?

They're so freaking amazing, inspirational and funny. I absolutely LOVE Jane and Lily. I never anticipated devouring Grace and Frankie at the rate I did. These two and Sam blow that show out of the water for me. I have NEVER before binge watched an entire season in 1 day. They are just brilliant, talented women.

[@unknown-lf6zx]

I love them. Lilly was an idol of mine growing up. She's so funny. Jane too! That show is amazing.

[@MM-og6wt]

I love these women so very much!! Im 43 and watched Grace and Frankie all seasons 4 times!! powerful on and off stage. Thank you Jane and Lily for your inspiration.

[@aleandrade1941]

Damn didn't expect Jane being so informed, she's amazing! And Lily is too funny

[@gordontheengineswifedr.nirmal]

These two r priceless. They r gold together n i enjoy learning from them

[@vlad6024]

Just some people, sitting, having good time. Good for them.

[@kathleenboyer6989]

Love this interview, Jane can only be serious about her beliefs and Lily with her years of delivery can hardly speak seriously without the laughter. It is the perfect George Burns and Gracie routine!! Love you both ladies.

[@kimjasso9953]

These are some brilliant women!

[@youtuber6185]

Kim Jasso There is gender equality already. Statistics now price that women have equal opportunity, are graduating at a higher rate and have equal income when taking all factors into consideration. They think it’s still 1962 and it’s simply not. How about pushing for women empowerment in the Middle East. Or do Muslim women not deserve equality?

[@parsnipmcgee329]

Great interview. I don't know if it's a regional thing (I live in Seattle), but I see a lot of those male tropes changing. Everybody hugs, which is still strange to me, and I overhear them having pretty interesting conversations about women, racism, homophobia. It's cool, I must say.

[@punzelle]

Love these two; just binged on Grace and Frankie and am now up to date for the new season that begins this week! ~

[@Huffdanny-p2n]

Hi Susan hope you’re okay?

[@annemariemcclure1447]

Yes Jane , Lily and Pat. Keep putting it out there. We are listening.

[@teesagirl]

Jane really gets passionate about our planet. She’s an excellent speaker..

[@Huffdanny-p2n]

Hi Sandra hope you’re okay?

[@sivgreyson]

I quite enjoy that Jane spoke directly to the ways in which men are _socialized_ into manly being (as women are also _socialized_ into womanly being). Moreso, I love Lily saying that men get comfortable in patriarchy. It’s this friction between self and structure (culture, capitalism, nationalism, etc.). Men don’t only need to start working on themselves and the ways they build/feed/benefit from patriarchy, but there is also a much larger fight (a fight to dismantle structure and reimagine worlds) that we all (men, women, non-binary, genderqueer, and so on) need to come together to join.

[@k.chager5784]

Thank you Ladies for sharing.

[@ritsy5106]

I was lucky to meet Lily Tomlin at a park in LA while she was filming a movie. Such a nice and down to earth lady. Loved the experience ❣️

[@ariel3234]

Remarkable ladies individually, world changing as a duo

[@lisabrodersen2629]

These two are wonderful in "Grace and Frankie!" The older I get, the more I relate to the experiences of the two characters. I've watched every episode twice because it makes me smile and laugh. I am excited for season 6.

[@Huffdanny-p2n]

Hi Lisa hope you’re okay?

[@BP-K9sBeHave]

I just love these 2! Thanks for this TED TALKS!

[@aliciadematteis7181]

These ladies are such an inspiration to all of us. They are beautiful, funny, intelligent , caring. They have been able to articulate in a very simple way all my thoughts and feelings. Thank you
