TORONTO—In the face of criticism and financial repercussions for several recent
controversial statements, including the demonetization of his YouTube page, clinical
psychologist and media personality Jordan Peterson told reporters Monday that he took
comfort in the knowledge that his fanbase is 95% female.

“Whenever the cancel culture
brigade comes after me, I can brush it off because the facts speak for themselves, and
the fact is, my listener base is almost entirely composed of progressive women,” said
Peterson, who added that while he had been pleasantly surprised but skeptical at first,
multiple independent surveys he had commissioned of his online followers and buyers of
his books confirmed that women make up the overwhelming majority. “Sure, it’s
frustrating to see people trying to drag me over the coals on Twitter, or use one or two
statements I’ve made to cast aspersions on my whole character, but at the end of the
day, women are clearly interested—the most interested, as several independent polls
show—in what I have to say.

You would be surprised how many women identify with
Jungian archetypes of masculinity that separate the real men from those who simply
follow the dictates of our all-too-woke society, and the diet of only red meat I support
finds an obvious consumer base among women. And while I certainly appreciate the
women who make up virtually my entire online following, it’s also important to remember
that the internet isn’t everything, and it’s those sold-out talks attended almost
exclusively by women that really make what I’m doing all worth it. Ultimately, women are
the ones who realize that you need to slay the green dragon if you’re ever going to save
your soul.”

Peterson added that if he had one regret in his role as a controversial public
speaker, it was that he hadn’t yet won over the remaining 10% of transgender people who
don’t already financially support all of his work.
