This booklet kept popping up on booktuber videos I've watched over the years, and since I've been reading through some quick feminist essays, I finally picked this up at my local Barnes & Noble. It's a lighting-fast read, actually less than 50 pages. But Adichie is wonderful and I can't wait to read more of her work. She puts things in such wonderfully plain terms that I wish I'd read this long ago - just today I had a male co-worker comment (I think perhaps jokingly knowing him) that the title of the book was silly because being a feminist meant I wanted women in charge of everything. I told him that being a true feminist means equality between everyone of all genders. He proceeded to then say, "Well then why is it FEMinist? If there was a movement called MENinist you'd be up in arms." My response was "The last 3,000+ years have been all about men, and women have been oppressed and excluded from the narrative on purpose." There's a passage in Adichie's talk that explains exactly this - to take the FEM out of it is to ignore the problem stems from gender inequality specifically to put women at a disadvantage.
