Livre très intéressant, parle d'un sujet que je connaissais pas assez mais la structure rend la lecture assez fastidieuse (+ de 6 mois) parce que les arguments sont pas organisés de manière répétitive dans leur structure. Les arguments sont très bien justifiés ( ou démontés) et des propositions sont apportées pour changer la société. Peut être compliqué à lire parce que la violence des zhoms est citée telle quelle.

This is one of those books that I wish everyone read. 
It was an insightful book, fleshing out some already known terms and view points whilst exposing me to others. It definitely bred some interesting analysis within my own life and was an interesting book to talk about. 
The only reason I didn’t give it a 4 star review was purely because there were some opinions and conclusions the author made that I found difficult to agree with or understand. 
But for the most part, I really do think it was an important read and I’m glad I’ve read it.

It was incredibly challenging to know the following things;
1. People that Laura talks about in this book exist in large, hidden numbers
2. They could be anyone

This book contains extremely important and helpful information. It is something I think everyone should take a gander at least once in their life - regardless of their gender, sex or orientation. Because this is a reality we all face and interact with, even if it is on very different levels from one person to the next. But it honestly gave me so much anxiety listening to the audio book, that I need to make sure everyone is aware that it is a very difficult read / listen, and it is okay to read it in small doses.

An incredibly important and relevant read. As part of a very online generation, I knew a little about the communities online that breed misogynistic views and opinions but I never knew how much of an impact it had on society and "offline" in the real world.
