If you're going to be serious with a straight guy, get him to read this book first. 

Also teaches the general humanity some empathy for women. That women's issues are not just about women, men play their roles too, as bystanders, as complicit in their inaction, in thinking it's not their role. 

This took me a while to finish because by the time I finished, I felt enraged by the last line. Goes to show the writing of this author as succinct and it cuts to the core.
