El reflejo de la lucha callada, ante el machismo, de millones de mujeres en todo el mundo, desde la óptica particular de Marge Simpson. Yo estaré aquí para auparte, sostenerte y para sacrificarme. Yo, que ya he asumido mi papel. Yo, que no estoy dispuesta a que repitas mis errores. Yo, que quiero que tú, Lisa, seas lo que a mí no me dejaron ser: autónoma, independiente, una mujer del siglo XXI. Que si quiere llorar, llora; que si quiere gritar, grita. Que debe gritar. Y sonreír únicamente cuando de verdad quiere hacerlo.

Bullshitsätze wie "Viele Frauen wollen doch gar keine Karriere machen." oder "Vermisst du dein Kind nicht, wenn du alleine wegfährst?" bekommen wir wohlwollend von unseren Freundinnen zu hören oder werden uns von engsten Familienmitgliedern heimtückisch ins Ohr geflüstert, bis wir ihnen glauben – und das Patriarchat sich freudestrahlend die Hände reibt. Dieses Hörbuch ist die ultimative Anleitung zum Parieren solcher Sätze.

With The Tiger and the Cage, Bolden uses her own experience as the starting point for a journey through the institutional misogyny of Western medicine—from a history of labeling women “hysterical” and parading them as curiosities to a lack of information on causes or cures for endometriosis, despite more than a century of documented cases.

Siamo immersi nelle turbolenze di una crisi spaventosa ma che può spalancarci – se sapremo agire con decisione – la strada di una grande svolta, quel cambiamento duraturo che in tanti auspichiamo. Oggi, nel mondo, una donna su tre è vittima di abusi e quotidianamente oltre cento donne sono assassinate da uomini che dichiarano di amarle.

As Daphné B. obsessively watches YouTube makeup tutorials and haunts Sephora’s website, she’s increasingly troubled by the ways in which this obsession contradicts her anti-capitalist and intersectional feminist politics.

La tecnología tiene un papel determinante en lo cotidiano: el trabajo, la educación y la vida social. Pero es un área profundamente desigual para las mujeres.

Chicas en Tecnología® es una invitación a reiniciar el sistema, a que las mujeres consideren a la tecnología como una aliada para mejorar el mundo.

Lauren Fleshman—one of the fastest American women runners—explores scientific and social research while telling her own story in a bold, energetic voice.

Women are expected to be many things. They should be creative, but not crazy; passionate, but not angry. They should be fertile, feminine and self-reliant, not barren, butch or solitary. Women, in other words, are caught between social expectations and a much more complicated reality. In The Defiant Middle, Kaya Oakes draws on the wisdom of women mystics and explores how transitional eras or living in marginalized female identities can be both spiritually challenging and wonderfully freeing, ultimately resulting in a reinvented way of seeing the world and changing it.
