We I never we didn't have a lot of male figures. The men the men had left. I mean, my grandfather was there, but he also died, you know, uh in his 70s, and I was, you know, or in the 70s. I don't know. All I know is I remember him very vaguely. I was probably like 10 or 11 when he died. Right. And my dad died when I was 21, but like uh other than that, there weren't there weren't a lot of, I don't know, did I have an uncle? I had a I I guess I had an uncle somewhere. Yeah, I have I have uncles. Uncle Will. But I you know, I they just weren't big figures in my life. Right. The women were always more powerful, you know. Right, right.
