Review of 'Of Boys and Men' on 'Goodreads'

4 stars

After spending too much time thinking about "manosphere" types (how do they actually manage to sell their snake oil???), I think this might be the right questions to ask about how we help men reinterpret existence in a modern era. I get that it might feel "taboo" to the author (who takes exceptional pains to try being some sort of "centrist" whisperer) but reorienting masculinity (even at the intersection of race) in a healthy way that can make well-adjusted men with support networks just seems to be a no brainer for quite literally everyone.
