I really liked bell hooks's approach to this. She focuses on incorporating male problems into feminism as a focal point, not excluding them.

Interesting. What's a good place to start reading what bell hooks said about this?

The Will to Change by bell hooks is the one book that made me feel seen as a person. Usually I open a feminist book with the suspicion that the author will be like "all men are evil" and that usually makes me care less about feminism for a while. But that book was a pleasant surprise, it spoke to me and not at me.
