What About Men?

Author(s): Caitlin Moran

Non Fiction

A frank, funny and galvanising exploration of masculinity, and a manifesto for male allyship, from million-copy bestseller and feminist powerhouse Caitlin Moran.


As any feminist who talks about the problems of girls and women will know, the first question you will ever be asked is 'But what about MEN?'


After eleven years of writing bestsellers about women and dismissing this question, having been very sure that the concerns of feminism and men are very different things, Caitlin Moran realised that this wasn't quite right, and that the problems of feminism are also the problems of, yes, men.


So, what about men? Why do they only go to the doctor if their wife or girlfriend makes them? Why do they never discuss their penises with each other - but make endless jokes about their balls? What is porn doing for young men? Is their fondness for super-skinny jeans leading to an epidemic of bad mental health? Are men allowed to be sad? Are men allowed to lose? Have Men's Rights Activists confused 'power' with 'empowerment'? And is Jordan B Peterson just your mum - but with some mad theory about a lobster?


In this book, Caitlin intends to answer all this and more - because if men haven't yet answered the question 'What About Men?', it's going to be down to a busy woman to do it.


Product Information

"I love this book. It's a refreshing reply from a staunch feminist to the question 'What about men?' that gauges the complexity and nuance of the question. It seems men definitely aren't lobsters but we sure have a lot in common with dogs... It's great for creating a base for authentic conversation about improving things for everyone..." -- Adam (staff)
