Excellent if difficult read. I would characterize its main conclusion as 'traditional ideas of masculinity alienate men who fail to live up to them and make them vulnerable to radicalization by woman-hating fringe groups, and those groups do material harm'; I'm kind of disappointed that the book does not engage with the fact that it is men who created and enforce those traditional ideas under the patriarchy, thus resulting in a 'it hurt itself in its confusion' situation.
There's certainly a discussion to be had on whose responsibility it is to dismantle systems of patriarchy, and a large divide might be if men can be trusted to give up the system that keeps them in power.

The content is super important and obviously very well researched, at points it doesn’t feel repetitive but it also super informative .
