And there was this very odd moment.

I don't know if you remember this, but in one of President Trump's State of the Union addresses,

He had this line where he said, we've created X number of jobs, whatever it was.

And this is the one where all Democrat women were in suffragette white.

Do you remember that?

And they were kind of jeering him.

But then it comes to this point where he says, we've created X number of jobs and most of them went to women.

And you could just see all the Democrat women in their suffragette white thinking, oh, what do I do?

Do I cheer?

They did end up cheering.

There was this kind of moment where they're like, yes, that's great.

But it's also kind of weird for President Trump to be bragging about the fact that he was the president who was creating the female economy, right, given how he'd run.

And so it's just a good example of the oddity of this.

But the broader point is that many of the AI-protected jobs in things like healthcare are more hands-on.

They are much more female dominated, at least for the moment.

And so that does mean that, and no one can predict how this will go, that does mean that men are kind of losing out.

And so for me, it means that the need to get more men into those professions, many of which are really desperate for workers.

So if you think about nursing and teaching and social care and childcare and so on, they're desperate for workers.

It's not just that there aren't very many men in healthcare and education, it's that the share is actually declining.
