They have talked about why she says modern dating is practice for divorce, social media and pornography, why nice guys finish last, masculinity, parenting and how to build a relationship that lasts.
Each appearance is listed below in order with a short summary.
Why ‘Nice Guys’ Always Finish Last (2025). Her most watched London Real interview, covering attraction, confidence, boundaries and what makes a relationship last. For her core argument about modern dating, watch What Women Want and Why Men Get It Wrong (2023).
Speaking in 2023, Khan said current dating culture teaches people how to have short-term connections, break up quickly and start again, rather than how to build a marriage that lasts.
She argues that most people carry some childhood trauma and fail to recognise their own insecurities. Her advice is to ask yourself first how your insecurities could damage the relationship.
Khan says dating apps, social media and pornography create an illusion of endless options, so partners are treated as replaceable. In 2025 she put it this way: you can replace your partner without leaving the room.
In her 2025 interview she said attraction is built on confidence, not compliance. She argues that men who set boundaries, keep promises to themselves and lead with certainty are more attractive than men who try to please.
Khan says her views resonate because she combines traditional Eastern relationship values with Western psychology, and she believes many people want a return to commitment and clear roles.
