Invisible Women: Exposing Data Bias in a World Designed for Men by Caroline Criado Pérez

 "Animal care is women's work"

I feel very fortunate that gender does not play a role in our house/relationship, and I am not relegated to doing all of the housework simply because I was born a woman. I'm also very fortunate that in my career, I've not been exposed to a lot of the sexist issues raised in this book, because working in animal care and teaching animal care means I've always worked in a fairly female-dominated industry. That said, animal care being referred to as "women's work" is still frustrating. 

This book lays out a lot of ways in which women are suppressed in different areas of life. It gave me a lot of appreciation for the situations I've not (yet) been faced with, but I hadn't considered many of the things talked about in this book, and now I feel informed and irritated. 

I would highly recommended this if you're in the mood for a feminist non-fiction read.
