What feminist books would you recommend to a man who is open to new ideas and willing to learn but is very new to feminist ideas? Hoping to educate someone without coming on too strong and alienating him. Fiction or nonfiction welcome. Just hoping to expose a man’s mind to the female experience.

Rebecca Solnit - recollections of my non-existence I think it can show interested men how life from a perspective of a woman often looks like. To understand some of the traumas of living as a woman in a patriarchal society.

Also the TED talk of Chiamanda Ngozi Adichie: https://youtu.be/hg3umXU_qWc?si=ywHZQNZw2pfxhNMu[1] I have never read her essay book with a similar title but that one should also be easy to read and a good start into feminist thinking.
