Beschreibung
In 1913, suffragette Emily Wilding Davison threw herself under the hooves of the king's horse... In 1970, feminists stormed the Miss World pageant... And now comes Caitlin Moran's book... Never before has it been better to be a woman. We have the right to vote, access to birth control, and since 1727, we haven't been burned as witches. But there are still a few probing questions to ask... Why are we expected to get Brazilian waxes? Should you get Botox? Is it true that men secretly hate us? What should we call our vagina? Why does wearing a bra hurt? And why does everyone ask when you’re going to have a baby? Caitlin Moran answers these and other questions in her book How to Be a Woman, which is part memoir and part passionate tirade. We follow Moran from her terrible thirteenth birthday ('I weigh eighty kilos, have no friends, and when boys see me, they throw gravel at me') through her adolescence to work, strip clubs, love, obesity, abortion, shopping, motherhood, and much more. In 2011, Caitlin Moran won the Galaxy National Book Award.
