Fierce Self-Compassion: How Women Can Harness Kindness to Speak Up, Claim Their Power, and Thrive by Kristin Neff

1.0

I have a problem with books for women that perpetuate sexism directed toward men (and the converse), especially without backing claims with data. Eg. “[T]he power of those women threatens men’s identities, so insecure men act out to humiliate and degrade them.”

We may suspect that’s true, but stating it as fact without support doesn’t make it true.

The book is rife with similar claims, many unsubstantiated.

There’s enough blowhard opinion masquerading as fact in the media. I’m not interested in consuming. DNF.
