Backlash against feminism is not inevitable. Only ~10% globally think gender equality is a negative. Society has embraced the “masculinization” of women but hasn't yet enabled the “feminization” of men. We must enable boys and men to move beyond rigid masculinity. theconversation.com/mens-concern...

Men’s concerns are real but backlash is not inevitable – the new rules guiding feminism

Recognising that some men feel left behind doesn’t mean giving in to misogynists.

I spoke about lookism bias against women w/ Dahlia Stroud for the Stressed But Well Dressed Podcast. Lookism is traditionally defined as a beauty bias. However, for women, no matter what the women looked like, they were criticized or discriminated against. open.spotify.com/episode/7cBB...
