And so it's not just a relative loss of position between men and women.
It's in many cases a loss of absolute position.
These men are actually no richer than their fathers were at the same age.
That's a massive cultural shock.
And so we don't go back on the rise of women.
In fact, we need to do more.
But we also need to figure out what does that mean, how to be a father, etc.,
With fathers doing more and more in the home, we need institutions that support both mothers and fathers.
And so we do need more generous paid leave.
We need that leave to be paid at much higher levels if men are going to feel comfortable taking it.
That's just a fact.
The point about AI and the job markets now is a very interesting and timely one because what we're actually seeing right now is, and it's been true for the last few years, that there's been huge employment growth for women.
And much slower employment growth for men, job growth for men.
And so in 2025, about three and four of the jobs created were in healthcare or social services, right?
Overwhelmingly female professions.
And so you'll see just this huge rise in employment for women and much less pretty flat for men.
But it's because of this occupational separation, right?
The jobs that men have traditionally done in manufacturing, as you point out, manufacturing, mining, et cetera, they have declined.
And they've declined under President Trump just as they did under President Biden.
There is nothing that tariffs or talking about this is going to do about that.
