\u2018That\u2019s all gone\u2019
\ue000I went through a period, this would have been in the 90s, where

the feminist movement were blockading just about everything,
and I remember going into the offices where I worked and it
being picketed by the feminists and things. Now, that's all

gone... I think everybody accepts now that women will
always be thought of as sex objects by men, but the thing
about 'well, don't treat me as a sex object' - well, I'm sorry love,
everybodyis going to - that is life.
