Stories of passing groundbreaking laws against sexual harassment. For these women, #MeToo was not the beginning - and it is not the end.

The Second World War represents one of humanity’s greatest tragedies. Yet in the thick of cruelty, suffering, and loss, ordinary women secretly stood against the Nazi regime, selflessly serving as bearers of peace and hope.

Eine Mischung aus Donnerwetter und Liebeserklärung an die feministische Szene. Die Genderstudies sind ein Minenfeld: Eine "woke" Jugend cancelt, was nicht bunt genug ist, während ein Großteil der feministischen Fortysomethings fragt, was die Streits um Privilegien, Gendersternchen oder Pronomen-Salat überhaupt sollen. Ist das Problem im heutigen Feminismus in Wahrheit ein Generationenkonflikt? Dabei könnte es doch so einfach sein: Raus aus dem "ich weiß alles besser" – und zwar auf beiden Seiten.

In this most original examination of America's post-9/11 culture, Susan Faludi shines a light on the country's psychological response to the attacks on that terrible day. Turning her observational powers on the media, popular culture, and political life, Faludi unearths a barely acknowledged but bedrock societal drama shot through with baffling contradictions. Why, she asks, did our culture respond to an assault against American global dominance with a frenzied summons to restore "traditional" manhood, marriage, and maternity?

Men are responsible for all unwanted pregnancies. Why? Ovulation is involuntary. Ejaculation is not. Yet, it's women who are expected to do the work of pregnancy prevention. Why must women be responsible for men's bodies, as well as their own?

Le harem et les cousins est un ouvrage remarquable et dérangeant à plusieurs titres. Il dérange par la vigueur de ses hypothèses et l'ampleur des problèmes qu'il soulève, par les liens qu'il établit entre une histoire plurimillénaire et les réalités les plus quotidiennes, enfin par son extraordinaire liberté de ton pour traiter de choses graves. Avec cette œuvre prend véritablement corps en France une anthropologie de la Méditerranée faisant ressortir des parentés structurelles, jusque-là plus ressenties qu'analysées, entre les sociétés établies autour de cette mer.

Tutto è corpo, il corpo è tutto. Il corpo ci rende potenti e vitali, ci umilia e ci offende. Il corpo è una vittima. Il corpo è un oppressore. Il corpo è violato, straziato, ucciso. Il corpo è arma di protesta, strumento di piacere. Il corpo nasce, soffre, gode, muore. Il corpo è vulnerabile; ma la vulnerabilità del corpo è una forza di liberazione. Olivia Laing ha capito di essere corpo innumerevoli volte nel corso della sua vita: ogni volta che è scesa in piazza a manifestare, in ogni rapporto sessuale, ogni volta che ha temuto per la sua incolumità.

Il Tantra è la metodologia che permette di purificare l'amore da tutto ciò che lo avvelena. Per capirlo, è essenziale partire da una comprensione fondamentale, ovvero che noi siamo una realtà energetica, ed esiste un'unica energia vitale che opera attraverso di noi. Come Osho spiega, "è la stessa energia vitale che al livello più basso si manifesta come energia sessuale, e al livello più elevato si manifesta come spirituale. Pertanto, secondo me, non esiste opposizione di sorta, nessun conflitto."
