DO NOT read this book - Caroline Criado Perez is a TERF! I did not find out until after reading this book that the author intentionally left out issues with data collection for trans people because she is transphobic. Despite what the title would suggest, this book does not promote inclusive, intersectional feminism. You can read more about the author's stance on trans women here: https://twitter.com/irisvanrooij/status/1130080343120326661?lang=en

Such an important book for everyone to read - both women and men. It left me angry at the many ways that women are excluded and discriminated against around the world due to a lack of data or simply the failure to consider that women may have different needs to men.
