That\u2019s to say that there\u2019s only one kind of stereotyped male and stereotyped female and anyone else needs to swap boxes.

Now in 2022 he believes the situation is reaching a crucial turning point and we need to wake up urgently. In this conversation with Rebel Wisdom\u2019s David Fuller he talks about how our current culture\u2019s domination by a \u2018left brain\u2019, reductionistic, materialist and literalist perspective had reached crisis point. He explains how this is manifesting as a \u2018war on reality\u2019, and a series of attacks on free speech.
