Comedian Chelsea Handler claims she is a “threat” to “straight men”. This is because she has consciously decided to spend her life as a “single” woman with no children.
Handler seems to have fallen into the commonly held belief that if you give birth to a child and pass on your DNA to the future after your death, you will never be “free” or “happy,” but she feels no regrets about herself. He claimed not to have done so. The decision not to have children.

“I have a great relationship with myself,” the comedian added, claiming she has the ability to “know” herself because she's never put more of her DNA on the planet, which makes her weird. In fact, it suggests that a woman can only trulyunderstand herself, if she does not have the opportunity to see a microcosm of herself in the person she gave birth to.
“Listen, that's a luxury,” Handler insisted. “Not everyone has that kind of time to get to know themselves.”

Ms Handler said she received “feedback” from “all these stupid men” but ignored it as her fruitless lifestyle “threatened” her.

“They're like conservative news outlets,” Handler explained. “I'm on their radar because I don't need anything from them. So I'm a threat. I'm a threat to a lot of straight men who are insecure.”

“If you want a baby, by all means have one. But if you don't want to have a baby, that's fine,” says Handler. “Your worth does not depend on whether you get married or not, and your worth does not depend on whether you have children.”
At the beginning of the episode, before Handler joined the podcast, Ripa, a mother of three, exclaimed: “I can't wait to talk to Chelsea because she hates kids so much.”
“She has a very strong position of not having children,” the actress added of Handler, before claiming that she feels childless as well because she is an “empty nester.” .
