reminds me of something sociologist Emily Carian noted when she was on the pod last year: "Nearly all of the feminist men I interviewed, their feminism was really about proving that they were a good guy.

It was what we would call identity work, building their identity as a feminist, as a good guy, working through their feelings around their identities."
