Summary:
'Get ready to get
unladylike
with this
field
guide
to the what's, why's, and how's of intersectional feminism and practical hell-raising. Through essential, inclusive, and illustrated explorations of what
patriarchy
looks like in the real world, authors and podcast hosts Cristen Conger and Caroline Ervin blend wild histories, astounding stats, social justice principles, and self-help advice to connect where the personal meets political in our bodies, brains, booty calls, bank accounts, and other confounding facets of modern woman-ing and nonbinary-ing. By laying out the uneven terrain of double-standards, head games, and handouts
patriarchy
has manspread across society for ages,
Unladylike
is here to unpack our gender baggage and map out the
space
that's ours to claim." --From publisher.
