A History of Women in Men's Clothes: From Cross-Dressing to Empowerment by Norena Shopland
4.0
You've all heard the phrase, "Who wears the trousers?".
The answer to that is Women, whether they were allowed to or not.
A History of Women in Mens Clothes delves into the thousands of Women who history swept under the rug for carrying out their own forms of protest by forcing their way into a Mans world and refusing to be defined by their biology.
Some Women had to do this, to escape abuse and danger, others because they were finding who they are, others just because they could.
Easy to read, informative and a must-read for anyone who wants to know more about womens history.
