Maybe you think women are overreacting when they talk about stuff like this. But here’s the thing… women keep telling us this crap makes them uncomfortable. And what do we do? We ignore them. We tell them to lighten up, accept a compliment, stop making everything about them, and that’s wrong. It is about them. We should be strong enough to be able to back off when women tell us the things we do scare them.
— While most Me-Too-themed books I’ve read focused on the victim, this one shared the focus with the victim’s brother, who perpetuated rape culture but eventually learned from his mistakes and stood up for what’s right, and that was really refreshing to read.
