men to avoid in art and life 2025 wall calendar

Through its unlikely pairing of classical artwork and meme-style captions, the Men to Avoid in Art and Life wall calendar highlights the universally female experience of having her area of expertise explained in great inaccurate detail by an overly confident mansplainer.

This calendar is the perfect present for Galentine’s Day, Mother’s Day, birthdays, or for whenever you’re feeling particularly weighed down by the patriarchy (always). Whether it’s the Sexpert or the Patronizer, the men in each painting are shockingly familiar, proving the inconceivable antiquity of their existence. From Tersigni’s infamous Twitter thread and wiildly popular book, this wall calendar connects us through laughing at the unfortunately topical and frustrating experience of being a woman.
