nicolemillo 's review for:

The Female Eunuch by Germaine Greer

I must confess...I zoned out occasionally and will likely have to re-read/re-listen to this at a later date. There were a lot of things that I'm already aware of which were well expressed, other things seemed a little out of date or somewhat unconvincing, still others belaboured.
An aside: although I recognise why it was done (I think), I wasn't keen on the use of vulgar terms and racial or homophobic slurs for emphasis/shock value...I have difficulty seeing any of that language usage as a reclamation and it just ended up feeling unnecessary and distasteful.
