2017 was the year of women. they fought against injustice in the women s march in january. they fought back against abuse of men in the me too movement. they won a great number of elections in november. the silence breakers were time s people of the year last november. what is the state of relations between men and women today? will all this turmoil lead to better and more equal ties or to suspicion and tension? there are few people better placed to answer that question than my next guest, joanna kohls was a brilliant reporter for years. then she became a brilliant editor. she s now the chief content officer at hurst and the author of a new book love rules. you have worked your way

i have my dear friend and chief content officer and author of the new book you ve got to pick up love rules how to find a real relationship in a digital world. janet, you ve studied the impact of the digital media. all the information we put out there. when we hear from these two guys, not specifically facebook specifically, but what mike zuckerberg saying it s a one off, aufrl our data gets harvested, gets used to it, is that the world we re living? i think so. and think people don t care, that s what s fascinating. we have the millennial generation who understand and want to do everything on the computer and dating apps. but i think this is a generational gap. think older people care because they have a sense of what privacy means and i think millennial and gen z and alpha generation are seeing everything they do that somehow goes out into cyber space and they really
you think much better than perhaps you should. and it s leading to all sorts of issues. and actually the british police who keep all sorts of data on this have discovered when they call a new sexual predator, and that s telling people in particular. if you meet someone online, you have a long, flirty exchange then you meet them in the flesh in a bar or restaurant or whatever and then you go home with them on that first date, you are more likely you re six times more likely to be sexually assaulted than if you had just met someone in a bar, go home with them. why? because they think there s a whole new layer of searchual predators looking to entrap people and it s fascinating. you know what else is fascinating? this book love rules you ve got to read it. thank you so much. thank you so much. we ll be back in two. better, faster
