Richard Herring is writing a book prompted by his annual Twitter responses to men asking when is International Men's Day.
The Problem with Men: When is it International Men’s Day? (and why it matters) is published by Sphere on November 5. An audio book will also be available.
Every year on International Women's Day sexist trolls ask this question on social media and Herring has taken it upon himself to spend the day patiently answering every enquiry.
Once and for all, there is an International Men's Day and it's on November 19th. Alright?
In The Problem with Men Richard expands on his Twitter discussions and tackles some of the big questions surrounding the problems of toxic masculinity - for women, but also for men - including:
- Should men fear feminism?
- Is society sexist against men?
- Could you win a point against Serena Williams?
*spoiler* The answer to all of these is no.
The Problem with Men is a book for anyone striving for an equal society, all year round.
