Publisher's Synopsis

_____________________________
We all know a good boy.

He's a 'Feminist'... in his Tinder bio.
He ghosts you, but then feels bad. (For a moment.)
He's not mansplaining, just aggressively clarifying.
And he's open to being wrong. Theoretically.

Ready to call time on rewarding those who clear the low bar of not being outwardly awful?

Awards for Good Boys explores why so-called and self-proclaimed good boys are actually not that great, and makes literal our tendency to applaud men for doing the absolute least. It will make you cry-laugh, feel validated, and help you unravel your own assumptions about what makes us good. ______________________________
'Shelby and her art are extremely my shit. You need this book.' Samantha Irby, author of We Are Never Meeting in Real Life

'A short book of one woman's opinions. It's funny, but I prefer when men are funny or else my ego feels bruised.' Ben from Twitter
