Discover 'Entitled', a groundbreaking exploration of male entitlement penned by the insightful philosopher Kate Manne. In this compelling 2021 release from Penguin UK, Manne delves into the pervasive issues surrounding misogyny by revealing the insidious nature of male entitlement that stretches far beyond mere sexual advances. This B-format paperback spans 288 pages of clear-eyed analysis, effectively challenging societal norms surrounding admiration, bodily autonomy, knowledge, and power. Through vivid cultural references—from the Kavanaugh hearings to viral stories like 'Cat Person' and critical figures like Harvey Weinstein and Elizabeth Warren—Manne crafts a nuanced narrative that exposes how a privileged man's sense of being owed something has damaging repercussions. 'Entitled' addresses a spectrum of phenomena including mansplaining, the medical neglect of women's pain, and the alarming escalation into violence exhibited by incels. With sharp wit and intellectual rigor, this book invites readers to understand that toxic masculinity is systemic, implicating us all in its consequences. Manne's vision promotes a paradigm where women demand and deserve the same respect and entitlements as men—an essential read for anyone invested in gender equality, power dynamics, and the future of society.
