I'm Afraid of Men by Vivek Shraya
4.0
This is one of those books that I want to re-read again and again because I feel like each time there'd be something new I'd get out of it. The more I read books/watch videos about gender the more convinced I am that it is a hard thing to pin down and I feel like this handled that very well.
There are many quotes from this book that I found impactful but this one in particular got to me:
"And so, I'm also afraid of women. I'm afraid of women who've either emboldened or defended the men who have harmed me, or have watched in silence. I'm afraid of women who adopt masculine traits and then feel compelled to dominate or silence me at dinner parties."
