With her 2016 call to arms, Fight Like a Girl (Allen & Unwin PB $29.99), we learnt that Clementine Ford is a force to be reckoned with. In Boys Will Be Boys, Ford picks apart the detritus that toxic masculinity leaves behind. This engaging and impactful book questions how sweet little boys grow up to become violent and aggressive men, and Ford attempts to answer this from multiple angles: as a feminist, as a woman who has been subject to toxic behaviour by men (in
real life and online), and as a mother raising a son. With this book, Ford is prompting people to start having conversations with each other about the societal impacts of traditional notions of masculinity, and howwe can change our culture for the better.
