Older white blokes are being written off as unworthy, Top Gear star James May has said.
The 61-year-old joined his former co-star Richard Hammond to discuss toxic masculinity and the “modern man” on the Who We Are Now podcast.
May said: “I do think men are getting a bit of a bad rap recently because there is a lot of talk about toxic masculinity.”
May added: “But it’s not all of us, and we seem to be straying close to a point where simply being a bloke, especially if you’re a slightly older, lower middle class, white bloke to be honest, you’re almost immediately written off as being unworthy.”
