Über diesen Titel

From the wickedly funny and feminist creator and host of the Throwing Shade podcast, a collection of hilarious personal essays and political commentary perfect for fans of Lindy West and Roxane Gay.

Since women earned the right to vote a little less than 100 years ago, our progress hasn't been the Olympic sprint toward gender equality first-wave feminists hoped for, but more of a slow, elderly mall walk (with frequent stops to Cinnabon) over the 400 million hurdles we still face. Some of these obstacles are obvious - unequal pay, underrepresentation in government, reproductive restrictions, lack of floor-length mirrors in hotel rooms. But a lot of them are harder to identify. They're the white noise of oppression that we've accepted as lady business as usual, and the patriarchy wants to keep it that way.

Erin Gibson has a singular goal - to create a utopian future where women are recognized as humans. In Feminasty - titled after her nickname on the hit podcast Throwing Shade - she has written a collection of make-you-laugh-until-you-cry essays that expose the hidden rules that make life as a woman unnecessarily hard and deconstructs them in a way that's bold, provocative, and hilarious. Whether it's shaming women for having their periods, allowing them into STEM fields but never treating them like they truly belong, or dictating strict rules for how they should dress in every situation, Erin breaks down the organized chaos of old-fashioned sexism, intentional and otherwise, that systemically keeps women down.

This book covers everything from STDs to politics to academia. Whilst being hilarious, it covers serious topics with serious criticism but manages to avoid getting too dark and depressing (because those are the times we live in right now) with a good dose of humor and sarcasm (and Gibson doing voices is hilarious as well). While I listened to it, I repeatedly went from frowning to head shaking immediately followed by snorting and laughing. Listen to/ read this book now! It's a must read for feminists, people who are not yet feminists but should be (looking at you Angela Merkel) and fans of Throwing Shade hosted by Erin Gibson and Bryan Safi.

Educational, infuriating, hilarious and important
