Martha Stewart Attempted To Explain Why She Hasn't Had Many Relationships With Men, And It's Certainly A Hot Take
After watching Martha Stewart's new Netflix documentary, people have no choice but to stan.
Aptly titled Martha, the "candid documentary charts the unstoppable rise, sudden fall and hard-won comeback of lifestyle icon Martha Stewart" — from Martha herself, per the Netflix logline.
It also delves into Martha's personal life — including her relationship history. You may have already seen one clip going around of Martha calling out her ex-husband for cheating, just for a producer to call her out about her own affair.
Now, a new clip of Martha talking about her hate for talking about feelings is also going viral.
In an interview, Martha was asked whether she's been open about her feelings in any of her relationships. "No," she confessed.
"That's probably why I haven't had very many personal relationships with men, for example, because I..." Martha said, looking deep in thought. "Couldn't care less," she laughed.
I have never heard anyone articulate my exact sentiment on this. The Netflix documentary on Martha Stewart is very good. pic.twitter.com/LUdgySH3QO

Shrugging, Martha explained, "It doesn't interest me so much to know, you know, 'Oh Charles, how do you feel this second.'"
"I don't care, actually," she stated. "I do care about, 'Charles, what are you doing? What are you thinking about?'"
Martha explained that, as an active and ambitious person, she prefers hearing about a person's actions. "I think more about everything that I'm doing, things that I'm working on, things that I would like to work on, things that I'd like to accomplish. That's where I'm best," she said.
People felt very seen.
Posting the clip on X, one person wrote, "I have never heard anyone articulate my exact sentiment on this. The Netflix documentary on Martha Stewart is very good."

"I now identify as Martha Stewart," someone else said.
TikTok user Nicoraxoxo echoed that sentiment, writing, "As I'm getting older I'm turning more into Martha."
This person said they never considered themselves a fan of Martha, just to find out they're exactly the same.
Someone else jokingly called her the "avoidant attachment final boss."
While another said, "I fear I've reached this point."
People also just really appreciated Martha's honesty, whether they could relate or not.
I’m the total opposite lmao! But as someone who’s trying to be a little less preoccupied with feelings. I really appreciate this sentiment. I’m going to check this out, thanks for sharing. ✨

omg i struggle with this so much. the inability to find questions for someone bc it feels inauthentic to ask for the sake of showing interest and not bc they're genuinely doing something interesting. the silence that falls when they take it personally and never ask back. https://t.co/Rb6ftM3NeR

I loved this doc. I never really connected to her, but after watching this I understood her on another level.
