A review by wchereads
Things Are Against Us by Lucy Ellmann
Did not finish book. Stopped at 47%.
This started out very interesting (first essay is arguably my favourite and the most relatable), then quickly became very dull and frustrating. While I do think the author still had a point here and there, ultimately I find her feminist views to be very trans-exclusive with a fixation on genitals and organs.
Now, I absolutely think there are spaces AND frankly an urgent need for more education and awareness about afab/traditionally considered female anatomy. I just think those sorts of education and criticisms of patriarchy and the harms of toxic masculinity can and should exist without being exclusive/intolerant.
