Abstract
[Extract]
It is becoming increasingly common — and socially acceptable — for men to describe themselves as feminists. Barack Obama and Justin Trudeau — as well as Joseph Gordon-Levitt and John Legend — are among those to publicly adopt the label.
This level of high profile male support for feminism would have been unthinkable 10 or 20 years ago. It shows the growing acceptance of feminism as a mainstream social justice movement. This is surely a positive development.
