>> Hunter Hoover: Share a space that
0:03
is pretty intimate and private.
0:07
And when they share that space with a person of
0:10
the opposite sex, things
0:13
get uncomfortable for people.
0:19
Um, welcome back to privy. Privy is a
0:21
podcast about bathrooms
0:24
recorded from my home bathroom.
0:27
I'm your host, hunter Hoover, and I
0:30
love bathrooms. Welcome back, everyone. I hope you
0:33
guys are enjoying the summer air. For those
0:35
who are joining us by video, you're going to be able to
0:38
see it in my face. Um, but
0:41
less than 20 minutes ago, I was just
0:44
neck deep in a cherry tree, just plucking
0:47
cherries, just fisting
0:50
cherries out of a tree left and right.
0:54
I swam to Jan. As soon as I got out of that tree,
0:57
it was like the floodgates of the histamines
1:00
in my face opened up, and
1:03
I unleashed an allergy cavalcade
1:06
the likes I had not seen in some time. Now
1:09
I'm also just getting over some seasonal
1:12
ish. Um, so the post nasal drip is
1:15
fierce. So, for those who are joining us, if this your
1:18
first time joining us here on privy, and you're wondering,
1:20
my goodness, is he going to talk about allergies this much
1:23
on a show about bathrooms? Like, I already clicked on this show,
1:26
and it had a toilet as, like, the
1:29
thing. Like, I was already on the fence. But, yes, there's
1:32
gonna be some allergy conversation at the beginning of this
1:35
one. We will do our best. Um, the
1:37
video editing is next to nothing,
1:40
so forgive the. Forgive the allergy
1:43
sniffles. Um, they exist. We will do our best
1:46
to power through and do that. But it's
1:48
June, and we're almost to the. We're. We're almost
1:51
to the end of the rainbow hellscape
1:54
that is June. I want to share
1:58
just my interactions. So I live here in
2:01
the, I will say, smallish city
2:03
of Albany, Oregon. And, uh, this
2:06
just today, Albany, Oregon, had
2:09
its pride celebration. They got together
2:12
downtown, and they had rainbows all over.
2:15
Um, and I. Whatever. Like,
2:18
I'm staying out of it. I chose
2:21
to not go downtown, but what I will say
2:24
is the Facebook page for. For Albany
2:27
pride, um, says that
2:29
they. That they wish that there be
2:32
no public disturbance during the
2:35
event. And I think that is an
2:38
excellent idea. The problem is, is the event shut
2:41
down at least two public roads
2:43
downtown, and I believe it's more like four, but two
2:46
that I could tell. And as far as there not being a
2:49
public disturbance, in my opinion, if we had just not
2:52
had a full blown festival of
2:55
rainbows downtown today, we could have avoided
2:58
all of the public disturbance. So much so
3:01
that I took my son and we went and put Pokemon
3:04
go elsewhere. But, um, in honor of the month of
3:07
June, we need to talk about the elephant
3:09
in the room, or perhaps it's
3:12
the ass in the corner. We try not to get political
3:15
on the show.
3:17
Um, but Papa Joe,
3:20
he came into the bathroom space.
3:23
He kind of entered the bathroom, ripped a fat
3:25
beefer. It's good he did it in the bathroom this time.
3:28
It seems like he's been willing to do that from the stage,
3:31
but he really mucked things up for
3:33
everybody. And as always,
3:36
we cannot start with Joe Byron, um.
3:40
Cause it turns out
3:43
the pride rainbows run deep in his 80
3:46
whatever year old catholic heart. But we can't
3:49
start there. Today, we are tackling the
3:52
super chill, the. The super chill
3:55
and totally uncharged
3:57
topic of
4:00
segregated bathrooms. More
4:01
specifically, sex segregated
4:04
bathrooms.
4:14
When we start talking about the history of
4:17
sex separated bathrooms, it is one where,
4:20
like most market economies, it
4:23
is not a question of when or how, but
4:26
what was the need? When did the need
4:29
arise for us to separate these
4:31
bathrooms?
4:34
And for a really long time, there wasn't much of
4:36
a need to separate bathrooms based on men and
4:39
women. In the earliest days of public
4:42
bathrooms, those of ancient Rome. There you go, guys.
4:45
We thought about it for the day where public
4:47
bathrooms were probably a lot more public than anyone
4:50
really wanted. Like, they're so public that if you look to
4:53
your left, you're probably going to see nasty Dave's little Dave
4:56
as he makes his deposit. Or if you're
4:59
lucky, he'll offer you to use his
5:01
spongy poo wiping wand. Check out
5:04
episode one if you want to know more about the wiping wand and
5:07
Dave. But separating everyone
5:10
from using the same bathroom
5:13
wasn't really an area of concern in
5:15
ancient Rome. And that's mostly
5:18
because
5:21
they were not worried about making sure that
5:24
women could use these restrooms. The
5:27
restrooms were for those who were going to be in the public
5:30
space. And while women did use them, they
5:33
were designed often by men, and they
5:35
were not designed thinking, oh, man, we got to make sure that
5:39
the ladies are comfortable here. Most
5:41
of the time, women were not out in public as
5:45
often or not in the same
5:47
capacity as men. And so often,
5:50
you know, we're less likely
5:53
to be using these public bathrooms.
5:56
Now, uh, a woman could
5:59
use these public bathrooms as much as
6:02
I can use an Ada big
6:04
stall. But just like the
6:07
Ada big stall is not designed for me in
6:10
mind. It's designed for people with limited mobility,
6:14
wheelchairs and the like in mind, the
6:16
public bathrooms of ancient Rome were not
6:19
designed with women in mind,
6:22
they were designed for anyone in public use. And in
6:25
ancient Rome, men were often the people who
6:28
were out in the public more often.
6:31
So, technically, yes,
6:33
Rome had unisex bathrooms,
6:36
but only in the sense that they had
6:39
bathrooms and didn't think of separating
6:42
them at all. It's a wild world.
6:45
Uh, it's really the wild west of
6:47
separate bathroom. I mean,
6:51
we're getting ready to do full circle on it.
6:54
And if you hear that and you think,
6:57
man, that really doesn't sound great. Like,
7:01
that doesn't sound like what I want to get my ish
7:04
into. I cannot stress. These
7:07
bathrooms were very public,
7:10
but they were still not quite as public
7:14
as many of the bathrooms that they used in the
7:17
middle ages. During the middle
7:20
ages, they saved time and money by not
7:23
even building bathrooms. You
7:26
know what will save us? Let's not even build toilets. Let's
7:29
just take a fat chassis right in the river,
7:31
drop a stack right in the middle of the street.
7:35
So, again, technically public,
7:38
technically a unisex bathroom,
7:41
but this time, it is only a unisex
7:44
public bathroom in the sense that all
7:47
of the outdoors is public.
7:50
By that knowledge, bears on the regular.
7:52
Where's the bears supposed to poop? If not in the woods,
7:56
but the bears on the regular, then, are using
7:58
unisex public bathrooms. Are we trying to
8:01
be no better than bears? Not as
8:04
public. Uh, but it is. And
8:07
you can't get much more public than Dr. Like hanging
8:10
beef in the middle of the street. And
8:13
that didn't last long. In the Renaissance
8:15
era, perspectives about bodily
8:18
functions and sex
8:21
separated ideas began
8:24
to shift, and there was an
8:26
increased focus and an
8:29
increased importance placed on
8:32
privacy, specifically the privacy
8:35
of a woman. How we
8:38
view the time spent in the
8:40
bathroom changed, and as they
8:43
started to perceive this separation,
8:46
as time went on, the private things that we
8:49
sometimes have to do in public
8:51
started to be separated as well.
9:01
As men and women. Both began to be in
9:04
these public spaces more often.
9:07
And with ongoing changes in cultural
9:10
norms and expectations for
9:13
both sexes as it relates to what you
9:16
do in private, this led
9:18
to women needing to
9:21
access a public bathroom more
9:24
often. And there's this moment,
9:27
do they use the same
9:29
bathroom? Like, it
9:31
seems as if there's a cultural shift at this
9:34
time, because for so long,
9:37
that's how it was. There was not a special space for
9:40
women. Um. Um. And not in a
9:43
fruity. Speaking of fruity, we got a new flavor
9:46
here. Mango, BlackBerry, polar
9:48
seltzer. Oh,
9:51
get it, get it.
9:54
Praise be to he. It's just
9:57
good. Um, polar. You guys are doing good stuff out
10:00
here. But there's this moment, like, do men and
10:03
women now use the same bathroom? Since there's, like, new
10:06
standards of privacy? And for a time, that's how
10:09
it was. If there was a public bathroom,
10:12
it could be used by all intended
10:15
for males, like, designed for males in mind,
10:18
because they were the ones who were leaving the house, going
10:21
out, working, doing those things,
10:23
um, but could be used by
10:26
both. And there's been a couple of
10:29
stories about how we arrive at these
10:32
sex separated bathrooms as we
10:35
come out of the 16 hundreds.
10:37
The first is a story about the first sex
10:40
separated bathrooms placed in public, at least
10:43
the first ones that we have on record.
10:48
This was reported as
10:50
1739 in Paris, France.
10:52
You know what I found out? Here's something that I find
10:56
interesting. If you're going to
10:58
talk about the history of
11:01
bathrooms, it's only
11:04
a matter of time before you get back to Rome,
11:08
ancient Rome, which, here we are, guys, we
11:11
talk about it. Or France.
11:13
Like, the French are just wild about
11:16
toilets. They cannot get enough.
11:19
The French are absolutely hog wild
11:22
about where they go to the bathroom.
11:26
But this. This first reported
11:29
public sex separated
11:32
bathroom was reportedly used at a
11:35
restaurant as kind of a gimmick
11:37
to make the men and women of the upper class and
11:40
the establishment feel
11:43
refined, as if they have their own
11:46
special bathroom spaces. It was kind of a party
11:49
trick. Um, is the way that this
11:52
story goes. Now,
11:56
it was a way of making both the men and
11:59
women feel special.
12:02
Now, the interesting thing about this theory is
12:06
it was not technically a public bathroom
12:09
because it was a sex separated
12:12
restroom at a private ball
12:15
held by french king Louis
12:17
XVI, the Hotel Deville, in
12:20
celebration of his daughter's wedding, to which
12:23
about 14,000 people were reportedly invited.
12:26
Now, it's not technically public,
12:30
but if you're anywhere in this world, if you
12:33
are in any space on planet Earth
12:36
and there are 14,000 people
12:39
there with you, it's
12:42
going to feel pretty public. Like it? Uh,
12:45
but, yeah, the story doesn't completely
12:48
check out, but I would argue 14,000 people in
12:50
attendance might as well be public. King Louis.
12:53
Little bit. Little bit too big of a flex there. But
12:57
the second prevailing theory about sex
13:00
separated bathrooms comes
13:03
from, uh, is from. And that it
13:06
is derived from sexist ideas
13:09
out of the further intermingling of the
13:12
sexes after the industrial revolution,
13:15
um, especially post world war.
13:19
The idea is, as women went to work
13:22
and were found in work
13:25
spaces more often, the
13:27
theory says that men chose
13:30
to separate the bathrooms by
13:33
sex in order to fight back and
13:36
further limit, at least in one space
13:39
where men and women could mingle. It
13:42
was as if they're saying, if you're going to be here at work
13:44
with me, you will not be in the bathroom with me. This is
13:47
a no lady zone. Um, and if that was
13:50
true, we're going to get into that. But if that were
13:53
true, in my experience with interacting with women,
13:58
they don't care. Like, they have
14:00
almost negative desire to be
14:03
in a bathroom space with any
14:06
man. Like, I think
14:09
if. If you even ask married
14:11
couples and you ask the lady and they're like,
14:14
hey, if you had a perfect world where you could have your
14:17
own bathroom, didn't have to share with your husband, would you take
14:20
it? I think most of them are going to say
14:23
yes. Like, so,
14:26
oh, you really show to men of the industrial revolution if
14:29
this was true.
14:32
But as it turns out, many of the laws
14:35
about bathrooms and sex separation
14:38
in the workplace occurred
14:40
to curb sexual harassment that was on
14:43
the rise as men and women
14:45
populated the same public,
14:49
yet very private
14:51
spaces. Isn't that
14:53
interesting? You know, that's pretty
14:56
interesting. When men and women
14:59
share a space that
15:02
is pretty intimate and private,
15:06
and when they share that space with a person of
15:09
the opposite sex, things
15:12
get uncomfortable for people. And there were
15:15
sexual harassment cases from this,
15:18
I want to note before you, unless somebody hears
15:21
this and say, oh, well, here's another, here's another angry
15:24
whatever, trying to dunk on
15:27
sex separated bathrooms. Um, most
15:30
of the like, other than my commentary,
15:33
the last few minutes of information was gained from
15:35
Yale laws website. Link in
15:38
the. In the diddly bopper down below. Go check that
15:41
out. Um, this is their findings.
15:44
Do with that what you will. In the
15:47
article, it is cited that the first
15:50
laws about sex separated
15:52
bathrooms can be seen in Massachusetts in
15:55
1887. Now, the
15:58
media, that modern day media,
16:01
I'm looking at you, modern day media, you sick
16:04
freak. Um, they incorrectly
16:07
assume that since this is the first time
16:10
we see Allah calling for sex
16:13
separated bathrooms, it's the first time it ever happened.
16:16
But for lack of a better way of saying it,
16:19
that's stupid. It's also not
16:22
accurate.
16:30
I want to also note, as we transition into the
16:33
next section, that much of the
16:35
research and much of the information in this
16:38
episode is in the debt of A.
16:41
W. Brulette Carter, who wrote an article
16:44
debunking the history of sex separated
16:47
bathrooms in 2018. Again, link
16:50
episode description go, go check out,
16:53
uh, cite your sources, kids.
16:57
If. If I'm going to tell you something, cite your sources.
17:00
It's the best thing you can do.
17:02
If you want to read it, it's down there. It's a lot, but it's
17:05
good information. But first is noted that this
17:08
idea of separating sexes in
17:11
public, yet private natured spaces,
17:14
bathrooms, locker rooms,
17:17
pretty much the two things, you know, like, here we
17:20
are, goes back to ancient times, and they
17:23
have found writings and other notes about times
17:26
when women would be allowed to access these public
17:29
bathrooms. So what it was is, like I said,
17:32
with the ancient roman public bathrooms, in
17:34
certain parts and in certain cities, they would have
17:37
women hours or women blocks where
17:40
they would block off sections of time. And that was
17:43
when women and children could go.
17:47
Again, they didn't. It was unisex, but they
17:50
separated when they could go. Greek writing
17:53
and greek culture speaks of human nudity and
17:56
privateness as something that ought to be kept
17:59
separate as often as they were able to
18:02
do so. This is seen in songs, plays,
18:05
artistic depictions of the time.
18:08
Jonathan Swift, in his satire of the
18:11
nobility, wrote of setting up a bunch of
18:14
toilets so they can sit out there and take a dump.
18:16
And in it, he wrote about putting, quote,
18:19
the other sex in the cells on the
18:22
left. In other words, even in
18:25
Jonathan Swift's time in, um,
18:28
early England, they
18:31
were separating. The idea of
18:34
separating private spaces based on
18:36
sex was not uncommon, and it was not
18:39
unheard of, mostly
18:41
because they could intuit that it was the
18:44
right thing to do.
18:47
These can be seen in the history of separate
18:50
sex in public baths within the United States
18:53
since the outset of the country. And we covered the public
18:56
bath movement, um, back. I think it
18:59
was during the bit about the Chicago
19:01
fire. Um, you'd have to go check that out.
19:05
Um, in short, those public baths in America
19:08
had a. Had a different problem. It was not sexism.
19:10
It was outright racism. That was the
19:13
trouble with those. It should also be
19:16
noted that this
19:19
idea that we need to separate
19:22
the sexes did not apply to
19:25
the lower class. It was the nobility that
19:28
often had this treatment. It was as if the
19:30
low class had to just deal with sharing these
19:33
spaces with one another, rather
19:36
than what is tried to be peddled today by
19:39
the media. That is that sex separated bathrooms
19:42
are a, uh, modern sexist idea used
19:45
to separate us. It would seem that
19:48
quite the opposite is true.
19:50
Rather, as you look back at history and
19:53
you take a good, long look at common
19:55
sense, you realize something.
19:59
We have been seeking to
20:02
have sex.
20:07
What a place to. Stop that sentence. I'm sorry, kids.
20:11
Um, we have been seeking to have sex
20:14
separate private spaces for m men and
20:16
women since pretty much ever.
20:19
The instances where they were not. Were special. They
20:22
were outliers, and in many cases, not the
20:25
standard by which you wanted or
20:28
desired to have things measured.
20:32
In the instances where they were unisex bathroom,
20:35
there was often special care taken to
20:38
figure out still how to
20:41
separate based on sex
20:43
for the comfort and privacy
20:46
of the different sexes.
20:50
It seems we separated these spaces
20:53
for the purpose of privacy. Men and women are different,
20:56
and also for the purpose of safety.
21:00
But there's been this push recently to try and
21:02
retell a portion of bathroom
21:05
history. And here on privy, we like bathroom
21:08
history. We like it a lot, so leave
21:11
it alone. And
21:14
the reality is, sex
21:16
separated bathrooms are
21:19
the norm. And
21:22
that brings us to a
21:25
segment of who in
21:28
the news
21:34
now, while, again, we are trying. We try not to
21:37
get political here on privy. This poo in
21:40
the news is. And it is centered
21:43
on bathroom things.
21:46
A simple Google search today.
21:49
The point you're listening to this, you have probably about five
21:52
days left of this rainbow
21:55
thing. Um, and a quick google search of
21:58
title ix and bathrooms. It's going
22:00
to bring a lot up these days. Um, title ix
22:03
is the civil rights law Congress passed
22:06
in 1972, which demands that
22:09
schools that receive federal funding
22:12
ban discrimination based on many
22:15
basis. And at the time, one of
22:17
those basis is that it could not discriminate on
22:20
was sex at the
22:23
time. This law did a lot to
22:26
secure the rights of women and their
22:29
access to safe public spaces,
22:32
specifically in education settings, and was
22:35
huge for the implementation of
22:38
women's sports in
22:40
education related facilities and
22:43
entities. In 2020,
22:46
Joe Biden was elected, and he seems bent
22:49
on pandering to any demographic that will
22:52
listen as he tries to get reelected this
22:54
year. Again, not to get political, but I want
22:57
to remind all of the
23:01
elder Gen Z, millennial, and young
23:03
Gen Xers who might still be staring down some student
23:06
loan debt. We were promised it to
23:09
be paid off, and it has not been.
23:14
So here we are. And he seems
23:17
bent on pandering to any demographic that
23:20
will listen as he tries to get reelected this
23:23
year. And the biggest thing he
23:26
did recently, and by the time
23:29
this comes out, he probably has done something even more
23:32
wild. But he redefined
23:35
sex, the term sex
23:38
male female, uh,
23:41
to include and also
23:43
mean and encompass the term
23:46
gender. The problem is, that's
23:49
not how it works. This
23:52
redefine will allow
23:56
all genders, transgender students, to choose
23:59
to use a bathroom based on their gender,
24:02
rather than using a bathroom based on
24:05
their sex. So you can have a
24:07
man with male
24:09
genitalia and male
24:12
tendencies identify as
24:15
a female in gender and use the girl's
24:18
bathroom with your
24:20
sisters, daughters, and the like. There's a couple
24:23
problems here. We don't usually make
24:26
laws to cater to people's feelings.
24:29
Laws are generally based in facts,
24:31
and they serve to protect people.
24:36
They are often based in facts that can be proven and are not,
24:39
uh, based on a person's feelings.
24:41
Turns out it's really hard to prove
24:45
how someone feels, or, better yet,
24:47
whether or not they do feel a certain way.
24:51
Second problem here is this change to title ix
24:54
undoes a lot of the work that Title
24:57
Ix originally sought to do,
24:59
namely, create safe spaces for
25:02
females and all
25:05
races. But in the encompassing
25:09
conversation, females in public
25:11
life here in the states,
25:14
our country is in huge debate over this. And by that,
25:17
I mean a minority of the population, which is really loud,
25:20
has bent the ear of the president. He wants their
25:23
vote. That's why this goes through in August
25:26
3, unless we get a big screeching halt from the
25:29
Supreme Court. It's interesting that this
25:32
happens just months ahead of the election.
25:35
Why didn't he do it on day one? Makes me wonder,
25:38
you know, it makes me wonder why week one,
25:40
just first week out of the gate, why Joe Biden didn't
25:43
come in and do that. It's kind of interesting to me.
25:46
But whether you agree or not, remove the
25:49
politics here for a second. Set it aside.
25:53
The reality is that this change
25:55
allows any teenage boy to follow your
25:58
daughter into the bathroom, and vice
26:01
versa, any teenage girl to follow
26:04
your son into the bathroom.
26:08
And I think if we're
26:10
honest in doing so, we are giving
26:13
up the already established rights,
26:17
young men and women, for the desired
26:20
mental comforts of a
26:22
vastly small population of kids that will be
26:25
taken advantage of by a larger
26:27
population of sick young people.
26:30
But sometimes the
26:32
news, like my underpants in the middle of
26:35
privy summer, is messy.
26:42
So why try and make this change?
26:45
Well, you see, bathrooms because they are separated
26:47
by sex and are in the cultural
26:50
zeitgeist a lot nowadays. An
26:53
article by NYU published in 2016
26:56
states that sex separated bathrooms are
26:59
largely due to sexism related to women as
27:02
they grow in their social roles. It argues, as it
27:05
quotes, enforced
27:07
segregation erodes dignity of their very
27:10
being. It is, right on its face,
27:13
unequal. And trust me, this is
27:15
just one of many articles pushing this.
27:18
This idea that sex
27:21
separated bathrooms exist to tear down
27:24
women. But you know, what is a really
27:27
modern idea? Like, really
27:30
modern is gender.
27:33
And as it would seem, and as it would happen,
27:36
the idea of gender is probably less than 100
27:39
years old now. We're not solving a gender debate. Here on
27:42
privy. But we are going to weigh in on bathrooms
27:45
because that's why we're here. We care about bathrooms.
27:48
There's a podcast about bathrooms. That's what this
27:50
is. And it
27:53
seems that we separate bathrooms
27:55
based on sex.
27:58
The parts in our pants, if you will,
28:02
not based on gender.
28:05
The feelings that we have in our body and our
28:07
brain, they argue your
28:10
gender is how you feel. It's impossible
28:13
to separate on gender. As
28:16
a result, they go non gender
28:19
bathrooms. And the problem is, according to them, we
28:22
all have gender. We're just supposed to suppress it
28:25
in favor and in favor of a
28:28
gendered bathroom. That's
28:31
why, if you are going to separate, if
28:34
you're going to separate bathrooms at all, you
28:36
separate based on sex. What's in the
28:39
pants? What is your DNA?
28:42
And the reason you do that is because,
28:45
yes, there might be someone who is
28:48
male sexually, and they say
28:51
that they are female gender. But
28:54
because this is a public space
28:57
and you are entering into a private,
29:00
public space, we separate based
29:03
on your biology, what is in your
29:05
pants. Feel whatever you like.
29:08
Now, the other path forward
29:11
here, if you're not going to separate,
29:14
if you're not going to do sex, separated bathrooms
29:18
and you want to work out your gender on your go, do that.
29:22
The other option is single
29:25
stall
29:28
bathrooms. Just single stall bathrooms. One
29:30
person. We don't care what type of person that
29:33
is. But make all the bathrooms single stall. If
29:36
that's your path forward,
29:40
if you don't think like. And this is different than
29:42
this idea of open stall, wherein all
29:45
the men and women go in and then they split.
29:50
Single stall. There's one room, one way
29:53
in, one way out, one person.
29:56
That's it. If you're gonna. If you're not gonna separate on
29:59
sex, separated bathrooms, that's the path forward.
30:04
If you don't think this is, if you don't think all of this stuff is a
30:06
mess, go check out the last few winners of
30:09
America's best restroom. And a lot of them have
30:12
kudos because they have these all access
30:15
bathrooms. But it's redundant because any
30:17
gender can use any bathroom because it's a feeling,
30:20
and not all feelings are good, real, or should be
30:23
valued. Rather,
30:27
as it seems we always have, bathrooms
30:30
were, are,
30:32
and should be continue to be separated by
30:35
sex, male and female.
30:39
That'd make them all single stall. That's the only path forward.
30:42
Or, to quote the
30:44
article from earlier, Carter's article,
30:50
the alternative bathroom histories do not
30:53
fail merely because they incorrectly
30:56
explain how bathrooms first
30:59
became separated by sex. They do not,
31:02
err, because they seek to tell the stories of
31:04
LGBTQ peoples. They
31:07
fail because they exclude the
31:10
histories and experiences of other vulnerable
31:13
groups, specifically women and the
31:15
poor. Those who push
31:18
narratives that contort women's history, even
31:21
when they do so in the interest of aiding transgender
31:24
people, oppress women while
31:27
supporting the rights of everyone to be treated fairly, women
31:30
and supporters of women have the right to push back
31:33
against those narratives, end quote. And so we
31:35
do. June's almost
31:38
over. We're almost on to some freedom.
31:48
Well, guys, we hung in there. Uh,
