At times eye opening but the deluge of statistics and the #resistance sentiment turned me off it

Struggled with the varying pace and flow of writing. Intended to be quirky but found it difficult to read. Very interesting information just not conveyed very well

Essential read - may already be aware of some of the points raised in this book, but seeing them all together, structured the way they were, really drives the message home. It's a classic catch 22 - we don't collect data on marginalized folks and lack of data doesn't allow us to see the scathing gaps.
This book made me angry, upset and disappointed, but also left me with hope for the future because now we are talking about fair representation and this ignorance is not permissible or normal anymore.
So much of the discrimination is normalized and if nothing else, this book questions the accepted definition of "normal" in context of gender.

This book really opened my eyes to biases that I have lived with as a woman that I did not recognize as dangerous rather than just annoying. I would recommend that every woman reads this book and every man reads this book twice.
