Everything was hilarious.
I had the best of crack.

What happens with women, especially post-menopausal women, you know, by the time you get through the worst of menopause and you're kind of late 50s, 60s, whatever, it coincides with the pressures of lots of other things starting to lift.
Maybe career issues.
family, kids, mortgage, all starting to lift.
So you feel like you're coming up for air.
It feels like you've been swimming underwater and now you come up for air.
And you suddenly look around and you go, what are we still fighting for equality and this, that, the other for?
And you get mad.
We're still doing the same thing that we did like 40 years ago.
We still have a gender pay gap.
We're still watching our daughters fight for equality in sport, for example.
They're just too off the top of my head.
There's a million things that we're still fighting for equality in.
Oh, yeah.
