Men weren’t really the enemy — they were fellow victims suffering from an outmoded masculine mystique that made them feel unnecessarily inadequate when there were no bears to kill.

This is part of why feminism is important to everyone, not just ladies.

I have been thinking recently about masculinity and the ways in which it is packaged and sold to men—as a white male aged 18-35, I am the target demographic most of the time. I don’t know if this is a recent trend, or if I’ve only recently noticed it because of its growing relevance to me, but it seems that men are increasingly sold the idea that they needn’t—and in fact, shouldn’t—grow up.
