I emerge slightly less mystified about existentialism and with a useful framework of gender to consider and interrogate. An incredibly dense book I'll need to come back to.

4.5. Was it hefty? Yes. Did it tire me at times? Yes. Was it cunty? Also yes, in the best ways possible. Have we progressed much as a society? Yes and no.
