I'm Afraid of Men by Vivek Shraya
challenging
4.0
"Why is my humanity only seen or cared about when I share the ways in which I have been victimized and violated?"
"How cruel it is to have endured two decades of being punished for being too girly only to be told that I am now not girly enough."
"What would my body look and feel like if I didn't have to mold it into both a shield and an ornament? How do I love a body that was never fully my own?"
This book was eye opening. It is a quick read and an important one.
