I thought this author had some interesting perspectives and i'm glad I read it. I've read [b:Invisible Women: Data Bias in a World Designed for Men 41104077 Invisible Women Data Bias in a World Designed for Men Caroline Criado Pérez https://i.gr-assets.com/images/S/compressed.photo.goodreads.com/books/1617113740l/41104077.SY75.jpg 64218580] and this author doesn't cover anything to this level of inequality. I feel like this author misses the mark on a lot of issues too. He talked about women excel in school and careers...and I couldn't help but think if that would really be that bad for women to start running things? I look at the presidents and still not a single woman (maybe soon...) so sometimes I feel unsympathetic towards this book at times. I do feel like men need support and need to redefine the narrow views of masculinity. (Like maybe including LGBT topics that can also impact men? idk) I felt like this book was also a bit narrow in scope, but it was a short book.
