Growing up in Las Cruces, New Mexico, the lean child of working-class Chicago transplants, Judy Grahn hungered to connect with the larger world, to create a place for herself beyond the deprivations and repressions of small-town 1950s life.

Some days—or weeks, or months, or even years—being trans feels bad. Yet as Hil Malatino points out, there is little space for trans people to think through, let alone speak of, these bad feelings. Negative emotions are suspect because they unsettle narratives of acceptance or reinforce virulently phobic framings of trans as inauthentic and threatening.

In Life Stages and Native Women, Kim Anderson shares the teachings of fourteen elders from the Canadian prairies and Ontario to illustrate how different life stages were experienced by Metis, Cree, and Anishinaabe girls and women during the mid-twentieth century.

The mainstream discourse surrounding gender equality is a repertoire of violence: harassment, rape, abuse, femicide. These words designate a cruel reality. But don't they also hide another reality: that of violence committed with the complicity of the State? In this book, Françoise Vergès denounces the carceral turn in the fight against sexism.

Black women have been dehumanized through sexual objectification in the United States of America for hundreds of years and are still being degraded to this very day. The history behind this needs to be shared with the world so that the negative untruths about the Black woman can be dispelled and our young women will understand that media, news, music, and television are also tools used to take away their intelligence, respect, strength, beauty, and self-pride that they innately own.

"Trans*innen? Nein, danke! Warum wir Frauen einzigartig sind und bleiben".

Selbst zu definieren: Ich bin jetzt kein Mann mehr, sondern eine Frau? Frausein ist kein Kostüm.

Les femmes ont une histoire, une histoire de luttes pour leurs droits, conquis, arrachés, défendus, une histoire de colère contre les discriminations, les inégalités, une "Rage against the machisme." L'historienne Mathilde Larrère, spécialiste des révolutions du XIXe siècle, retrace les combats féministes de la Révolution française jusqu'au mouvement #MeToo d'aujourd'hui, sur les pas de Louise Michel, de Gisèle Halimi, mais aussi de tant d'autres invisibilisées, comme Pauline Léon, Malika El Fassi, les colleuses contre les féminicides.

Se un mostro è un corpo spaventoso perché fuori controllo, una donna mostruosa è una donna libera dal controllo dell'uomo. "Il mostruoso femminile" è un saggio sulla natura selvaggia della femminilità, che viaggia tra mito e letteratura, cronaca nera e cinema horror, mostrando la primordiale paura che il patriarcato nutre da sempre nei confronti delle donne.

Depuis plusieurs décennies, nous réfléchissons au sens de la féminité, à l'éducation de nos filles que nous voulons fières et émancipées. Nous luttons à l'école, dans la rue, auprès de nos familles pour tordre le cou aux clichés et leur offrir des chances égales à celles des garçons. Mais nous continuons d'élever nos fils dans le même moule patriarcal, comme si nous pouvions déconstruire le sexisme sans nous interroger sur la masculinité !

Ist es zu spät, neu anzufangen? Was macht das Leben gut? Mutterschaft - wer bestimmt, was das bedeutet? Wo ist die Liebe? Was war noch mal mit Sex? Brauche ich eine Therapie oder nur einen Spaziergang? Bin ich zu alt für Hüftjeans? Was geschieht mit meinem Gesicht? Und ist hier noch jemand so müde?
