C'est la première fois que je lis des essais, et je ne sais pas si j'ai choisi le bon livre pour commencer.
Sur les six, j'ai adoré lire le premier et le dernier, mais ceux au milieu m'ont ennuyé. Je suis quand même contente d'avoir lu ce livre car les idées qu'il a apporté vont mûrir dans mon esprit, elles sont déjà en train de se faire leur chemin !

Za duży rozrzut. Raz sprawa sądowa, raz anegdotka z życia, raz opis fotografii. Niby ta sama tematyka, ale mi takie nieuporządkowane teksty czyta się fatalnie. A szkoda bo niektóre są świetne.

I read it in 2 hours. It's a good crash feminism book but as a poc/Arab feminist, I could not relate to it. It didn't talk of women of colour and our struggles. It completely ignored the whole notion of poc feminism which is a shame, because it's such a short book and it could have easily done that and gotten 4 stars out of me. It was such a white-cis-straight-woman-explaining-feminism book, which isn't a bad thing, but I got bored of that narrative. It's a nice refresher of information, of course, but otherwise, it was just a fast fun read for me.
And I really don't get why chapter 6 is included in the book.
I'd recommend it to that friend who is skeptical about why we need feminism in this day and age.

This wasn't what I thought it was and that's probably my fault...
What I thought it was: A witty but truthful take on " mansplaining," the origins of the term and how it endures
What it actually was (IMO): A quick word on "mansplaining" and the rest a very cerebral take on the endurance of the patriarchy and feminism
I wasn't prepared to read such a book. I'm not cultured enough to appreciate many of the things she referenced in its pages but that's just me.

Ik had soms wat moeite met volgen waar het heen ging, of wat de punten waren die er eigenlijk gemaakt waren. Maar ik werd wel mooi met mijn neus op de feiten gedrukt en het heeft me bovenal aan het denken gezet, en zal me hopelijk helpen om zelf situaties te herkennen zodat ik ook deel kan maken aan de strijd. Zo las het ook: strijdend.
