As Reah questioned the impact of the #MeToo movement, she set about examining the ways in which women are socially conditioned to not just tolerate abuse but even prop up abusive systems. That forms the premise of her new book, Complicit: How Our Culture Enables Misbehaving Men, and so Jen caught up with her to chat about this, as well as how women sometimes benefit from complicity, victim blaming, and how cultural identity informs it all.
