challenging informative sad medium-paced

4.5

Excellent and infuriating read. 

None of the topics discussed were new to me but were laud out in a concise and logical manner and clearly well researched.  

I especially appreciated the closing where he personal passion is apparent - empowering her daughter to entitlement equal to that of a man.

i really liked this book. there were many things i didn't know (especially because a big part is about the US). make sure to check the content warnings, there are some parts that could be very disturbing (describing of murder, rape, other crimes against women)!!

Manne dives deep into what the patriarchy gives men (specifically white and rich men) and gives detailed retellings of how desolate the world is. It is a sad read as a young woman, even the last chapter, and raises the question of "How do I reach these entitlements she lays out for me? Is it too late?" A necessary read.

Fantastic book, especially in this social/political climate with the US war on abortion rights and the protests/massacres in Iran
