Would you go, oh, yeah, absolutely, spread the love?

Right.

That is an issue.

I appreciate your honesty.

Give it up for Amanda, everybody.

Thank you.

And we might return to that point.

We might return to that point.

But I understand that feminism to exist has to paint in fairly broad brushstrokes.

Like comedy, it doesn't work if you constantly read out the exceptions.

Can you imagine that?

Have you ever noticed how women leave things on the bottom step of the stairs?

But not all women, and certainly not single women.

And let's not forget those old single women who live in bungalows.

Also, we need to bear in mind the bigger picture.

Globally, when it comes to privilege, it's fair to say that men are still doing okay, but how does the UK compare?

Going into this episode, my hunch was that one reason men are angry is because their financial strength is being eroded.

I researched how much the gender wealth gap has narrowed in the last 10 years.

However, and you might like this, Amanda, annoyingly, I found out that the wealth gap in particular got worse for women since COVID, which obviously is annoying for women, but it was annoying for me because it didn't help my point.

The Women's Budget Group suggests that women used up more of their savings during the pandemic and immediately after, which put a check on progress.
