Women’s liberation is elusive because we frequently forget what it means. The Macho Paradox, written by pioneering anti-violence educator Jackson Katz, contains the opinions and experiences of women and men who have tackled the subject from all angles, as well as talks of contemporary events in politics and pop culture. Or, to put it another way, we can’t remember something we’ve never had. As a result, one’s vision is stymied from the start. This international celebration, on the other hand, is powerful as a reminder of women’s battles. It’s also useful for men who sincerely respect women (and have overcome the caveman effect) to provide their own support, questions, and opinions on the meaning of womanhood and gender equality.
