Are men allowed to make mistakes? Feminist Advice Friday paid subscriber bonus
A male reader thinks the pendulum has swung too far.
A reader asks…
I’m a man. My wife sent me your work, and I have been reading it with interest. I consider myself a feminist. I agree with a lot of what you say, and am trying to do better.
But I often come away wondering: Are men allowed to make mistakes? Sometimes I feel like the pendulum is swinging too far in the other direction, and now men are the ones expected to live up to a perfect standard of behavior.
