A very quick read, but that doesn't stop it from getting into heavy topics in a deep way. Since it's a collection of essays by different authors, it doesn't necessary flow. I definitely felt it important to expand into reading some books on the feminist topics and open my eyes further to the mindset women are forced to have-- and the collection of different viewpoints did just that. In particular, I enjoyed the titular essay "Men Explain Things to Me" which forces you to consider what 'mansplaining' must be feel like. I also enjoyed "In Praise of the Threat: What Marriage Equality Really Means" that relates opposition to same-sex marriage to the threat that equality between genders has on the deeply rooted views of marriage of some demographics, and '#YesAllWomen" which gave some great concrete examples on how the development of language helps identify issues and is the first step in liberating women from those issues. Overall, a good overview on the progress that has been made, that greatly emphasizes that most of the work is still left to be done. Some of the essays in the middle dragged and didn't pack as much of a punch-- which are the reason I only gave three stars. Five stars to the specific essays I called out, though.
