Summary

I Hate Men by Pauline Harmange is a provocative essay that explores the impact of misogyny, reflecting on personal and societal experiences. Harmange questions prevailing attitudes about men's behaviour and suggests that misandry can be a form of self-protection and solidarity among women. Blending philosophy and personal narrative, the book invites readers to consider how distancing from men could be a pathway to female empowerment and deeper understanding.

I Hate Men

The feminist book they tried to ban in France ‘A delightful book’ Roxane Gay

More than a banned book, the must-read on feminism, sexism and the patriarchy for every woman

Description

I Hate Men is the feminist book they tried to ban in France. It's described as ‘a delightful book’ by Roxane Gay.

Women, especially feminists and lesbians, have long been accused of hating men. Our instinct is to deny it at all costs. (After all, women have been burnt at the stake for admitting to less.)

But what if mistrusting men, disliking men – and yes, maybe even hating men – is, in fact, a useful response to sexism? What if such a response offers a way out of oppression, a means of resistance? What if it even offers a path to joy, solidarity, and sisterhood?

In this sparkling essay, as mischievous and provocative as it is urgent and serious, Pauline Harmange interrogates modern attitudes to feminism and makes a rallying cry for women to find a greater love for each other – and themselves.

About the Author

I Hate Men is Pauline Harmange's first book. Originally published by Monstrograph as Moi les hommes, je les deteste, it was subject to a censorship attempt by an adviser in France's Ministry for Gender Equality in September 2020. Sales skyrocketed as a result and the French rights were then acquired by Editions du Seuil, and the foreign rights snapped up by publishers around the world. Pauline Harmange lives in Lille.
