Caitlin Moran has often been confronted with the question “But what about men?” And at first, TBH, she DGAF. But when she heard a young man saying he was “boycotting” International Women’s Day because “it’s easier to be a woman than a man these days,” she wondered: Are unhappy boys and men also making unhappy women? The statistics are grim: boys are falling behind in school, are at greater risk of depression and suicide, and are increasingly susceptible to online misogynist radicalization. Will the sixth wave of feminism need to fix things for men if it wants to fix them for women? Moran began to investigate, talking to the men in her and her daughter’s life, raising very difficult topics and receiving vulnerable and candid responses. Moran opens a genuinely new debate about how to reboot masculinity for the twenty-first century, so that “straight white man” isn’t shorthand for “bad news".
