    Thanks. Did you try searching for “unlikeable” instead of “likeable”? Here’s one about that. I suspect the UK isn’t much different.

    (edit to add a quote from AOC in that article:)

    When you call Elizabeth Warren or Kamala Harris ‘unlikeable’, that’s an unsubstantial, unsubstantive, fluff, bulls**t, misogynistic word to use. Unlikeable? What is that? It’s not a policy critique.” --AOC

      I didn’t, I focused on “likeable”. Thanks for the link, I do clearly have a lot to learn and would like to. There’s just so much I don’t see, whether that’s that I just don’t pay attention, or don’t experience it as a man, or that I don’t want to recognise what I do see.

      I appreciate your time, and I’ll work to educate myself 👍
