For all the boys and young men currently afraid that being male means some kind of moral death sentence: the same world that produced Neil Gaiman and Donald Trump also produced Levar Burton, Steve from Blues Clues, and my (step)dad, who isn't famous but did look at a deeply traumatized child with a bunch of mental health issues and said "is anybody going to support that?" and then didn't wait for an answer. There are good men out there doing good work in ways both big and small. Choose to use your strength to help rather than hurt, your voice to speak for those who must be silent, and you can be one of them.

One of my uncles was a radiographer (the person who takes the x-rays, not the person who analyses them); another worked for a land development firm in a country town here in Western Australia. All good men, all hard workers, who largely kept to themselves and didn't cause any outcry.

I thank all of these men for providing me with counter-examples for my first encounters with radical feminism; between the living examples of my father and uncles, and the living history my mother explained to me about how things actually *had* got better for women in the thirty years between her being 18 and me being 18, the whole thing of radical feminism never actually stuck. I wasn't willing to believe "all men were shit", because I knew a number of men who weren't.
