truly incredible work. amia srinivasan clearly understands the history of the feminist movement and its failures but is not afraid to challenge what it is today and go back to get ideas from our predecesors. srinivasan does not just tell us what she thinks but asks questions and helps us think thru issues facing feminist movements today

Took a minute to get into the rhythm of the writing of this book but once i did i loved it!! This feels real balanced whilst not advocating for a right to sex despite the title. Instead this book advocates a restructuring and redefinition of how feminism can work to help ALL women not just those with power.

Aikamoista tykitystä, vaikea olla mitään muuta mieltä. Kuuntelin tämän, mikä ei ollut täysin luontevaa, luulin yhtä esseetä viitteiksi!
Nostaa ehkä enemmän kysymyksiä kuin esittää vastauksia.
Joiltakin osin paljon perusasiaa ja historian kertaamista, mutta toisaalta kirja uskaltaa katsastaa myös nykyfeminismin kipupisteitä (kuten seksipositiivisuutta, pornoa, lesbojen kieltäytymistä suhteista transnaisten kanssa).
Omaan mieleen tulee jäämään varmaan parhaiten kysymykset opettajien ja opiskelijoiden suhteista, koska se maailma oli tuttu ja jo aikanaan sekava.
