Beschreibung
A bold book about how ideas of femininity harm women
It is impossible to be a woman just like that, without qualifiers. Being a woman means being some kind of woman, usually according to culturally and socially defined standards: first a good girl, then a strong, independent superwoman, later a caring mom, and sometimes even a real bitch. All these roles are constraining for women — but like any social role, they are also automatic and unconscious, often comfortable and sometimes even advantageous. In her brilliant book Toxic Femininity, Sophia Fritz names these individual roles and stereotypical forms of femininity with uncompromising and bold honesty, breaks them down into their components, and shows how they are harmful and damaging to women, but also to men and society as a whole.
