What does it mean to be male in the 21st Century? Award-winning artist Grayson Perry explores what masculinity is: from sex to power, from fashion to career prospects, and what it could become--with illustrations throughout. In this witty and necessary new book, artist Grayson Perry trains his keen eye on the world of men to ask, what sort of man would make the world a better place? What would happen if we rethought the macho, outdated version of manhood, and embraced a different ideal? In the current atmosphere of bullying, intolerance and misogyny, demonstrated in the recent Trump versus Clinton presidential campaign, The Descent of Man is a timely and essential addition to current conversations around gender. Apart from gaining vast new wardrobe options, the real benefit might be that a newly fitted masculinity will allow men to have better relationships--and that's happiness, right? Grayson Perry admits he's not immune from the stereotypes himself--yet his thoughts on everything from power to physical appearance, from emotions to a brand new Manifesto for Men, are shot through with honesty, tenderness, and the belief that, for everyone to benefit, updating masculinity has to be something men decide to do themselves. They have nothing to lose but their hang-ups.Binding Type: Paperback

PERFECT
This blanket is exactly what I was looking for. I purchased the twin size but use it as a throw on my couch and all my guest love it. It is warm and snuggly.

GET IT! Luxurious, soft and modern
Color: Black, Size: King (108" x 90"), Color: Black, Size: King (108" x 90")
I don’t write many reviews, but had to for this one. This blanket is SO SOFT and it has a little weight to it. The king size is perfect and even a little longer than most king comforters. It is double sided, so the underside fuzz is a little shorter. It kept us warm but not too warm. If you overheat easily, this is perfect. I didn’t notice any shedding. I haven’t washed it yet but hopefully it won’t lose its luster once I do. I love the bubble pattern of the fur. The fur is luxurious and not cheap looking. It looks amazing on our bed.

Amazingly soft and beautifully made!
Color: Cream White, Size: Twin (60" x 80")
I was on the fence about purchasing this blanket as I was looking at other options and having trouble deciding. I ended up taking a chance on this one and I'm very happy with the result. This blanket is exceptionally soft and will keep you toasty warm. I keep mine at the end of my bed. It adds a cozy aesthetic to my bedroom. To put it simply, this blanket is both functional and beautiful.
Mine arrived in a air-sealed bag, but it fluffed right up the moment I opened the bag. I decided to wash mine before using it, however, it did not have any unpleasant smell that made me do so. My only reason for washing it is because I have allergies and sensitive skin, and it was more a precaution than anything else. Regardless, it washed up nicely and even after coming straight out of the washer was still fluffy and soft. If you also decide to wash your blanket, DO NOT put it in the dryer. You will absolutely ruin the faux fur if you do. I hung mine up on the staircase banister to dry overnight and it was ready to toss on my bed the next morning.
What I'm super impressed about with this blanket is that I haven't experienced any shedding whatsoever. I haven't found fur on my bed, there was no fur in the washer, nor have I found any tufts of fur after dragging it back and forth from my bedroom to the living room.
It's a quality blanket that looks exactly like the more expensive name brand ones, but without the hefty price tag. I'd also like to note that my cat LOVES laying on it. I'm going to order a smaller one specifically for him to put in the living room on his bed.
