Pussy: A Reclamation by Regena Thomashauer

3.0

---

I was really disappointed by this book. The title is SO GOOD but the contents didn’t live up to it. Super repetitive and subpar writing, not queer friendly, very gender normy, and not really educational. I waffled between 2 and 3 stars, but landed on 3 because I did feel that immersing myself in the word “p*ssy” (added the * since idk what words will be flagged) and everything related was helpful on my journey of unlearning purity culture. But for those who are thinking about reading this, there are a lot better books to help with that. My faves to date are “Becoming Cliterate” and “A Celebration of Vulva Diversity.”
