Manspressions is a timely and hilarious look at the behaviour of men, right from mantrums to manger. Said behaviour has been getting a lot of press recently; there are the mansplainers who talk over you and the manspreaders who invade space on a train by spreading their legs out wide. What makes them act the way they do Embracing the new wave of feminism that has spawned kickass YouTube videos and fierce feminist hashtags, Manspressions creates a common language for topics that were once difficult to talk about because we lacked the words to do so.
