Cause I think in our world, the idea of being single and being happier on your own is absolutely

very much like on the rise and we see that but then if you were potentially a guy listening or watching this and going oh well I'm actually seeing like the kind of incel cultural of it all and like that kind of pursuit of traditional ideas of marriage and still wanting that yeah still wanting a girlfriend or a partner and that's

that really important to you and your status and how you see yourself.

Whereas like you and I are like, I could be single and I could be happy.

And I know like statistically I'm going to be like, so there's so many things happening at once.

And I think also like the technology of it all, like we're such global citizens.

There's so much going on.

Yeah.

Wow.

Whoa.

Whoa.

So obviously, as usual, we attempted a huge bite of history and the pie trying to get everything into one.

We probably missed a few things and you're probably like, why didn't you speak about this and that and the other?

And yeah, there simply is not enough time.

But we hope you enjoyed this episode.

We really enjoyed researching this and finding out.

And I still cannot get over the fact that the courtly love

and the way that had such a massive influence.

I'm like, I'm reading fanfics that are basically the same stories.

Yeah, like literature being that.
