Yeah, we don't tell. It's certainly not in Scandinavia. That's not what we tell poor people. Just pull yourself up by the bootstraps. That's more of an American strategy. But what you said about the insult term is very interesting. Unfortunately, that coin was termed, or at least it spread into the mainstream with these terrorist attacks of the 2010s.

And what this has caused, it's very unfortunate. I mean, incels, it's arguably the most or one of the most marginalized groups in society. On some level, it is the most marginalized group. These are men that are being deprived of life opportunities. You're just suffering in solitaire.

And I wrote one op-ed in Norway where I said, there's a reason why you don't know the name of a single Norwegian incel. I speak up about these matters and I'm in a position to endure the hatred and the attacks that come and they have become increasingly grave. Could you imagine what happened if a regular guy, an incel, spoke up and said, I have never had any mating opportunities.

Let me tell you how this destroys my life. First, he wouldn't be met with compassion. He'd be villainized. He'd be seen as a misogynist and a potential terrorist. So we've created the culture where these men that are the most marginalized, and you could say oppressed, aren't even allowed to speak up about how terrible their lives have become.

So we don't hear anyone bear witness to this marginalization. Women spoke up loudly and proudly about what the patriarchy were doing to them, and they succeeded with liberating themselves from that. It's very difficult to see in the short to mid-range how these men can be a part of the public conversation because the costs that we impose on them are so enormous.

And to that other thing you said about how can we raise up men, well, that's what you could call one of the Scandinavian paradoxes. In raising up women, as I again, I think that I mentioned to you last year, the Norwegian welfare state, men pay more into it in taxes than they receive from it. Women receive more than $1.2 million from the welfare state over their lifetime than they pay in taxes.
