Why all men need to do better. (video essay)

Описание: Thank you for watching this video. I am very much open to criticism, so if you think there’s anything I’ve said that is wrong or could be worded better then please let me know and I’m happy to learn and grow :) There’s so much to say about this topic but the main purpose of this video is to try and educate men who may be completely oblivious to these issues. Please share this with the men in your life and encourage them to take a deeper look into sexism in our society. Thank you.

The best way to educate yourself is to listen to women themselves. Here are a list of resources you can use, if there's any you would like me to add please comment them below:
