I really wish there was an updated; post- pandemic, gender-neutral bathroom, Trump era, promotion of trans rights... version that incorporated greater recognition of intersectionality. I loved the contents of this book, but feel like there could be a broader focus on any data bias in the context of non, cishet white-male identit(ies). At points it felt a lot like a pure lit-review, but was informative nonetheless. A great and important read!

Very interesting text that brought up lots of point with stats to back them up.
 
I had 2 main gripes. Firstly it was very binary. I would have liked to see some LGBTQIA*+ representation if possible although I get that it may not fit into the premise of the book. Secondly, it felt, tonally, quite man hating which I found quite difficult.

Overall very informative but not sure if I would read again because of the tone.
