Word I can’t make out in Youtube clip.
The sentence begins around 5:38 in the following clip: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xQfADR9KeIE

“...and has actually almost produced an _____ again in (the) objectification of women.”

Thanks for your help!

Answer

Agreed with Michael, the word I'm hearing is 'upflip'. (Which is not a word as far as I know)
Uptick or uplift would be better suited, I think the guy just misspoke.

Answer

I think he spoke poorly there. I can{t really make out what he says either, but my guess would be either "uplift" or "uptick", both of which would refer to an increase.

Answer

Thanks Andy. Hehe -  that sounds funny.

Answer

Hi Mikkel, I hear "upclip". I was curious to know what he did say so I've watched the clip on BBC iplayer with subtitles and they have it as "...and has almost produced an upper lip again in the objectification of women.” Which doesn't make any sense to me. I guess nobody knows for sure what he said.

Answer

Thanks Micheal. I also heard it as "upclip".
