The problem with The Problem with Men is that I do believe men will have less trouble with it than the title suggests as it is actually a glorious, funny book written by a glorious funny man AISLING BEA Very moving, one of the few things I ve consumed in 2020 that has left me with a sense of hope... but one thing wasn t made clear, when is International Men s Day? JOHN ROBINS For the past decade, Richard Herring has been answering sexist trolls on International Women s Day when they ask when is International Men s Day? in the mistaken belief there isn t one. If only the trolls had learned to use Google they would realise that there is an International Men s Day - it s on November 19th. 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. With Richard s signature humour and insight, The Problem with Men is a book for anyone striving for an equal society, all year round. This is a great book but I think the last thing it needs is a quote by yet another man JAMES ACASTER
