accessible, intro to feminism essays  and despite nothing new, it was still engaging. however where is the intersectionality and capitalism was mentioned on the second last page lol. Also what is going on with the ode to Virginia Woolf and Susan Sontag’s fractured relationship.

reflective

3.75

Not what I was expecting and was definitely reflective and informative, a lot of statistics shared. I did become distinctly aware that this writing was coming from an American cis white woman’s perspective and it failed to take into account some women’s perspectives outside of that point of view, but an important read nonetheless.
