Particularly if you've been conditioned to think that being a man is X, Y, Z, and suddenly you're told all those things are things to be ashamed of. And now we've had the pendulum swing back a little bit, and you're seeing a sort of corrective balance, where I think people have begun to work out where the boundaries are, where the lines are, to a degree.

And you're seeing it at the moment with the whole Greg Wallace scandal in the UK. And, you know, for American viewers, very simply, he's a guy who does a cooking show on TV who's been very laddish for 20 years or so. And now that laddishness has come back to be used as a stick to beat him. And he said a lot of things which are pretty unpalatable to women who've now ganged up to complain about him.

But again, that raises that whole area of workplace banter. workplace relationships, right? I mean, I read that until 10 years ago, 40% of all marriages began with a workplace romance.

That's historically because of the gender imbalance in the workplace.

Well, I like the idea of it. I certainly think that when you've got a thumping win for a guy like Donald Trump, who's been helped over the line by people like Elon, like Joe Rogan and others, who simply don't tolerate or believe in the concept of cancel culture, that's incredibly powerful.
