Cybersexism: Sex, Gender and Power on the Internet by Laurie Penny

5.0

Penny slashes through the bullshit men say to defend a sexist internet - and point out that Free Speech should be protected - for the women being silenced, not as a shield to hide behind for the misogynist idiots who think they have a right to verbally assault women. The first 15 pages list the state of online harassment, and it is a horrifying read - but luckily Penny also believe that we can all save the internet together and make it liveable for all geeks male and female. Read it if you think feminism isn't necessary anymore, or that the internet is free and open to all - or if you want to join the fight for good - and btw. the writing is excellent!
