    In part 2 of a two-parter Simon and Lee carry on (obviously) from last week and get lost (and het up) discussing misogyny.

    Things covered: voting with our own best interests, the ruling classes, the feminist narrative, misogyny, Bob going shopping for batteries, skin hunger after COVID, getting closer and closer, women and fear, more misogyny, seeing ourselves in other men, rape culture, consent, 16 Candles, The Breakfast Club, Lee's huge fondness for horror films, the final girl (the girl who survives), Nightmare on Elm Street (spoilers), Star Wars (briefly, also BIG spoiler), violence, the responsibility of men to be small, Jefrey waking up early on the weekends, Lee's face has two settings (Binary Face Miller), Lee's age (he's 5 years younger than Simon), Hannah Arendt, to make monsters of others, recognising degrees of humanity, Eichmann trial (in Israel, not Nuremberg), how to edit this essay, saying goodbye.

    Correction: Eichmann was tried in Israel in 1961, not in post-war trials in Nuremberg.
