Why has your book got one star on Goodreads? Because I'm being attacked by normie liberal women, I think. So we sent out some galleys, some free copies to just avid Goodreads readers and women who are not in our sort of sphere thinking about things that we are. And I think also because the book looks like an anti-capitalist. Marxist book, there's no indication that I would sort of be skeptical of the mental health industry or um talk about cultural trends like family breakdown.

And so a lot of the reviews are women warning each other that this is not what you expect and you might be hit with a viewpoint you disagree with. Um and so it's a lot of girls who've got through the first chapter and then I've said something like about trans and they've just given up and warned each other not to carry on. You're horrendous. Yeah. When did you start

Writing about women and girls? I started um 2021, so it's been a long time. Um, and it was mostly because I felt anxious and I wanted to figure out what was going on. And so I was trying to map it all out and it's taken me sort of five, six years to finally finish the book. So it's it's not only research that I've done, but it's basically years of my life.
