This is such a great read, and such an important series. It can feel really overwhelming to navigate this moment when people are pushing back against patriarchy, because in the push-back I worry that men, particularly young men still figuring things out, can feel criticized in ways that aren't constructive. I'm coming at this from the perspective of a mom to a young man. I know it's a confusing world, and I don't always know how best to support him, and how to keep an open dialogue about the conflicting messages and harms of patriarchy without just sounding like his crazy feminist mom. I want him to trust that his family will alway be a refuge for him, but sometimes I worry that he feels like he has to be a different version of himself out in the world than he is here at home. I want for him to live a whole life with all the parts in harmony. Conversations like there are so important. Thank you.
