Laser focused and concise analysis of the role of entitlement in the landscape of patriarchy. Not one to read for relaxation! Very well rounded analysis that is explained well. My only complaint is I personally hate the coining of terms like "himpathy" but I recognize the advantage in being able to quickly call back to earlier concepts.

An interesting insight into how misogyny is embedded in our (and particularly US) society, based on sociological studies and news items. A bit depressing but also kind of hopeful in the end.

Being aware of a prevailing disparity between male and female entitlement, this still felt like a punch in the gut. This should be a mandatory book for every breathing man out there 👺

This is a good book that talks about how widespread male entitlement is within society, I like how it balances both studies and stories from people, but I feel like this is more of a collage of different people’s works. The only chapter where I felt like the author had a personal stake in what she was saying rather than reiterating others, was the one about a female politician. Overall not bad though.

Examines how male entitlement creates injustice in the justice system, workplace and relationships.
