Although I didn't agree with all of it and some would say it is not new information, I found this book super insightful and filled with some really great information and reality checks. I think this is a great intro/beginners insight into feminist thought and a very intriguing read for anyone who needs a reminder of their self-worth.

Florence Given ist eine international  jungen Stimmen des Feminismus in den sozialen Medien. 

Inhalt: 
Die zweiundzwanzigjährige Florence Given ermutigt ihre LeserInnen, sich von gesellschaftlichen Erwartungen freizumachen. Ob es um »pretty privilege«, Selbstliebe, »Catcalling« oder Enthaarung geht, Florence Given öffnet uns die Augen darüber, wie stark das Frauenbild in unserer Gesellschaft noch immer von Oberflächlichkeit und Sexismus geprägt ist, und was das für Frauen an Einschränkungen zufolge hat. Sie geht dabei alle Themen an, die heute wichtig und kontrovers diskutiert werden: Rassismus, Sexismus, queere Identitäten, Body Positivity, Online-Dating und toxische Männlichkeit. Ein feministischer Ratgeber (nicht nur) für junge Frauen.

Meinung: 
Auf unfassbar sympathische Art und ohne erhobenen Zeigefinger, sondern mehr aufzeigend, bespricht Sie gesellschaftliche Probleme und patriarchale Strukturen, so wie Misogynie. Zudem gibt die Autorin Ratschläge internalisierte Werte dieser Themen aufzubrechen und sich selbst kritisch zu hinterfragen. Sie tut Sies mit Hilfe Ihres jüngeren Ichs und versucht diesem den gesellschaftlichen Druck zu nehmen.
So erklärt die Autorin mit ganz viel Empathie und Charme warum Diversität so wichtig ist und wie wir unsere Privilegien kennen sollten, um Feminismus für alle zugänglich zu machen.
