Yeah, on my birthday.
You know, when I'm feeling frisky.
But, you know, I remember when I was younger, I used to bring a girlfriend back to my house.

And he's like, you know, it's my house.
Why should I change my behavior?
Because he decided to bring somebody home.
My dad would put a shirt on.
If company was over, he'd have a shirt on.
To be clear, that's very specific to my dad.
But yeah, as you get older, you sort of want to engage with that a lot more and you feel more comfortable about doing that.
And actually it's something to celebrate.

My children are...
don't really have that much of an, you know, like they know what their background is, but are they that bothered about engaging with it?
No, not particularly.

I mean, the good news for you is that you're trying for kids.
For me, the ship has already sailed.
