A parte dare la miglior definizione del movimento “me too” che io abbia mai letto, ho apprezzato moltissimo l’analisi non convenzionale che si porta avanti nei 6 saggi che compongono questo libro.
Ogni saggio scava a fondo nella filosofia femminista e nel suo approccio al sesso, mettendone in luce le problematiche, i limiti e anche le critiche. Ma non risulta mai sterile nella critica, poiché supportata da dati, informazioni ed esperienze, l’autrice si focalizza sull’importanza dell’intersezionalità come approccio alla rivoluzione femminista. Mi è piaciuto soprattutto come l’autrice ponga domande scomode su temi polarizzanti: è importante sapere quanto grigio in realtà c’è nelle risposte.

Ultima chicca: amo quando i saggi hanno una bibliografia che è pari alle pagine scritte

This is a perfect mass-market introduction to modern feminism. A great read if you're interested in learning more about the history/doctrine of sex within feminist movements. More breadth than depth, and not many new ideas posited—don't expect an academic text. However, this is the perfect book to recommend to those who are new to feminism and don't enjoy reading academic philosophy.
