serendipitysbooks's review against another edition
4.25
I’m Afraid of Men was simultaneously easy to read, and incredibly difficult to read. The words and the sentences were easy and conversational but the message they contained? The impact of toxic masculinity, entrenched gender roles, misogyny, homophobia, transphobia and more? That was difficult to read, to consider just how much pain, stress, anxiety and fear one person has borne as a result of faulty social constructs and the thoughtlessness and deliberate hurtfulness of others. A slim, accessible and important read.

I recommend listening to the audiobook read by the author and listen to the last 15 minutes at 0.75x speed because every word she speaks is stunning

The timeline was really confusing for me at some points and I kind of stuggled to link it all together when a lot feels discombobulated but i liked the message behind each other stories.
