Ofcourse there intersections that could've been investigated deeper but I think on a whole the book does justice in an intersectional way. Where she couldn't bring in her own experience/expertise, she asked another expert or checked many sources. As a young disabled white queer woman I saw experiences validated, even painfully so at times.
Even though most of the boo 's research and content was about England/Great Britain, it nearly mimics my experiences in the Netherlands. Though I would love a similar book specificly about the Netherlands, as some of the daily discrimination people face may be more covert here.
Laura inspired to maybe, just maybe, write that book myself. Or at least try and see if I can do some research in my own feeld, communication linguistics. I can think of a few subjects but one of them is see if there are more negatively loaded words for women than man in a (Dutch) dictionary.

It mentions a lot of things that could trigger people, especially those that have dealt with heavy institutional discrimination. It's heavy stuff, take your time with it.lizwizwiz's review against another edition

The systemic misogyny and discrimination against women, transwomen, women of colour and all non-male identifying people is unbelievable. Being aware of how deep rooted it is in our society is not something that brings me joy to say the least. But it’s so so important to be conscious of what is happening around us, with us, against us. Because only by being aware can we move forward. Can we acknowledge where misogyny and just pure violence is happening, because it's so much more than you would ever imagine. It’s everywhere and we’re so used to it, so brought up with it, by it, that sometimes we’re not even aware anymore (or I wasn’t). And seeing it so blatantly exposed everywhere is terrifying.
