Tell Him
So many women have the power to infiltrate misogyny in their own homes. It starts by never taking for granted how poisonous society can be to the male psyche, and protecting boys from the onslaught of misinformation everywhere.
All you have to do is tell him the truth.
Tell him what happened to us.
Tell him our whole story. Tell him how only very recently we were able to fight, protest, beg and starve our way to basic human rights.
We may have to fight our generation of men, (and the one before that,) for our rights, our safety and for our voices to be heard, which is sad and frustrating. But we have a golden window of opportunity to completely shape the future of our entire society from our living rooms. Build these men from scratch to fit women, rather than to take up all the space and force us to compact ourselves to the little corner allocated to us by them.
