Now that statement i can agree with. It is certainly much easier, very much easier, if the system supports you. What upsets me, and something for which I have no respect, is the endless moaning from women about their 'unequal wages.' The women who are doing this moaning aren't the one's who are earning basic wage. They are very much at the top end.

In terms of priorities, we have climate change, a highly destructive pandemic raging, a war that threatens to become nuclear, and some greedy women are upset because there is a couple of grand difference in terms of aggregate with male payment.

Many years ago, I worked in a casino. Part of our duties was to count the money in the slot machines. The coinage was exceptionally heavy, and as a young 22 year old, I find them very difficult to carry. I suggested to the boss that it ws a man's job to carry this kind of weight. He turned to me and said, "You get paid the same salary - you do the same job."

I don't see anyone stopping women in the west from taking part in public debate. That said, I wish Nancy Pelosi would retire.
