The author paints an attractive picture of a supportive and authentic masculinity and her criticism towards feminists who actively exclude men from the work of reimaginging a non-patriarchal society is an effort to put to bed the notion that feminism and man-hating are inextricably interwoven.
I think this is a good introduction to feminism for men, and a call for men to start the work of liberating ourselves from a system that sets us up to fail - though it would have benefited from a bibliography to aid with further reading.
