This series is now available as a single pdf document for easy reading. Find it here. This series of posts is about sexism against men. My own history is that as a not effeminate but certainly psychologically feminine teenaged boy, and well into adulthood (indeed up to this day), I felt I suffered in many ways from being male. I also felt that the ways in which I suffered were obvious. I thought it was clear to everyone that it was surely better to be female; that women have it easier and better. I didn’t know it at the time, but I was in desperate need for a community, a culture, where my suffering could be made legible, where people older and wiser and more knowledgeable than me would help me see, articulate, and resolve the problems I, being a man, faced.
