It’s as if you read my mind… and then expressed it a hundred times more eloquently than I ever could! Thank you for writing this. You have perfectly articulated one of the most frustrating social dynamics of our time, “the perfect (exhausting) storm” that is the convergence of female empowerment and male disconnection. While women have been working so hard to heal and find our voice, men have been lulled into emotional dead zones. I love that you referenced bell hooks too, because her books are everything. You are so brilliant Kate and I am thankful to you for articulating what needs to be discussed as often as possible… if there’s any hope of us collectively healing as a society!
