Question for the readers of this sub!
Hi I'm looking for a nonfiction book recommendation! I'm in the (i think) minority of being a woman who follows this sub and I have never had a positive male example in my inner circle. In result I struggle with being uncomfortable around men (even coworkers) because I assume that I'm only seen through a romantic/sexual lense (something my dad always told me about men), I struggle with clothes shopping by asking myself "would this 'decrease' catcalls", and I'm a somewhat late bloomer (21F) who never had a romantic experience in my life because of fear & just simply not knowing what a healthy relationship looks like. This sub existing in the first place affected me in a positive way and I'm really grateful for it. Since I'm graduating college soon and will really enter the real world, I want to heal my relationship with men in 2026.
TLDR: Onto my question, are there any nonfiction books that you recommend that's either on healthy masculinty and/or how women can heal their relationship with men/the masculine? (Read paragraph above if you need specifics)
