Reviving Ophelia is the first book I ever read about some of the differences men and women face in society.
It's pretty dated now, but the main concepts hold up very well. I recommend it to many of my female friends, and most of them have told me they wish they'd read it earlier.
I always smile when I think of it, too. Somehow, it got shipped to my unit when I was in the military and deployed. Who the hell would even think to donate that book to a platoon of Marine grunts? We actually had some pretty good discussions start - but they usually degenerated into talking about how much we wanted to get laid. None of us had seen a woman who spoke English in six months or so.
Anyway - read it. It's good.
