It’s perfect for those who don’t feel right in their skin, who feel a little lost in life. It’s like a map in which the author guides you through the journeys of feminism and along with many tips for when you are feeling lost.

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.

I loved the way this was written and could identify with the majority of the author's struggles. A very intersectional, sensitive, funny and take-no-bullshit approach to the way women are seen as vessels of male expectations. A must-read.
