Winner of the 2018 Alcuin Society Awards for Excellence in Book Design - Prose Non-Fiction "Cultural rocket fuel." --Vanity Fair "Emotional and painful but also layered with humour, I'm Afraid of Men will widen your lens on gender and challenge you to do better. This challenge is a necessary one--one we must all take up. It is a gift to dive into Vivek's heart and mind." --Rupi Kaur, bestselling author of The Sun and Her Flowers and Milk and Honey A trans artist explores how masculinity was imposed on her as a boy and continues to haunt her as a girl--and how we might reimagine gender for the twenty-first century. Vivek Shraya has reason to be afraid. Throughout her life she's endured acts of cruelty and aggression for being too feminine as a boy and not feminine enough as a girl. In order to survive childhood, she had to learn to convincingly perform masculinity. As an adult, she makes daily compromises to steel herself against everything from verbal attacks to heartbreak. Now, with raw honesty, Shraya delivers an important record of the cumulative damage caused by misogyny, homophobia, and transphobia, releasing trauma from a body that has always refused to assimilate. I'm Afraid of Men is a journey from camouflage to a riot of colour and a blueprint for how we might cherish all that makes us different and conquer all that makes us afraid.

Thin and scratchy
Package Size Name: XXL, Size: 150 sheet (Pack of 12)
Unbelievably thin, brittle and terrible quality. Couldn’t wait to use them up. Like trying to sop up spills with a saltine cracker. Might consider these at half the listed price but for the incremental cost difference, actual quality paper towels are worth it to me. Lesson learned.

Good Product
Package Size Name: XXL, Size: 150 sheet (Pack of 12)
These would compare to Sparkle brand. Every sheet was very absorbant. I tried these because they were cheaper. I didn't know what to expect. They were just plain white, looked clean while sitting upright just plain. They come with select a size. I thought they were great!

Thin and cheap
Package Size Name: XXL, Size: 150 sheet (Pack of 12)
Very thin, cheap and just not what I was expecting based on the great reviews and paid a little more too. Meh.

Great option. For less clean up! these are a must
Style: Modern, Size: 90 Count (Pack of 1)
Inexpensive, sturdy, perfect instead of heavy dishes. Good versatility and size. Thick and they don’t crumple when a full supper is on them.
