Women should be ready to call out mansplaining and take down the patriarchy. Every woman has probably had to experience something “mansplained” to them throughout their whole life even if once. The book has an eponymous essay that focuses on the silencing of women, with specific attention to the idea that men always believe and think that no matter what a woman says, they always know better.
