Le destre reazionarie si stanno impossessando di temi e parole che accompagnano da decenni le battaglie femministe, e ne stravolgono il significato. La stessa parola "femminista" è stata svuotata e manipolata, piegata a servire un progetto politico di esclusione delle minoranze e delle alterità, una nuova idea di società e di umanità, in cui nel nome delle donne si invocano razzismo, xenofobia, omotransfobia, guerra.

Millions of women have felt the power of birth, and countless women long for it. But for too many, birth can seem like a purely clinical experience — something to get through as quickly as possible in order to get on with the joys of being a mother. In Made for This, author Mary Haseltine draws on Pope St. John Paul II’s Theology of the Body to show that birth is an essential part of who God created women to be, body and soul.

Riotous and galvanizing, Tits Up excavates the diverse truths of mammary glands from the strip club to the operating room, from the nation’s oldest human milk bank to the fit rooms of bra designers. Thornton draws insights from plastic surgeons, lactation consultants, body-positive witches, lingerie models, and “free the nipple” activists to explore the status of breasts as emblems of femininity. She examines how women’s chests have become a billion-dollar business, as well as a stage for debates about race, class, gender, and desire.

Von Adele Schopenhauer über Shulamith Firestone ins 21. Jahrhundert: Kinderfreie sind eine verkannte Größe in un-serer Welt. Es geht in diesem Buch nicht darum zu behaupten, dass kinderfreie Frauen und Männer immer und überall die besseren Menschen sind. Es geht aber sehr wohl darum zu zeigen, dass es eine unsagbar anmaßende Position ist, Menschen mit Kindern zu bevorzugen und sie als Helden zu feiern.

Mickaël Bergeron nous arrive avec un cri de ralliement pour ses semblables, dans lequel il plaide pour un véritable leadership au sein de la masculinité, qui contribuerait à remettre en question des normes, comportements et politiques sociales.

Reproductive Justice is a first-of-its-kind primer that provides a comprehensive yet succinct description of the field. Written by two legendary scholar-activists, Reproductive Justice introduces students to an intersectional analysis of race, class, and gender politics. Loretta J. Ross and Rickie Solinger put the lives and lived experience of women of color at the center of the book and use a human rights analysis to show how the discussion around reproductive justice differs significantly from the pro-choice/anti-abortion debates that have long dominated the headlines.

Warum menstruieren Frauen? Warum erkranken sie eher an Alzheimer als Männer? Und warum müssen wir Frauen in den Wechseljahren jede Nacht die Laken durchschwitzen? Viel zu lange hat sich die Wissenschaft fast ausschließlich auf den männlichen Körper konzentriert. Erst in den vergangenen 15 Jahre haben Forscher verschiedener Fachbereiche neue spannende Entdeckungen dazu gemacht, wie sich der weibliche Körper in den letzten 200 Millionen Jahren entwickelt hat, wie er funktioniert und was es wirklich bedeutet, biologisch eine Frau zu sein.

Solnit nos ofrece un nuevo e indispensable repertorio de ensayos que analizan diferentes cuestiones, como por qué la historia del silencio está indisolublemente ligada a la historia de la mujer, o por qué a los niños de cinco años no les justan los juguetes de color rosa. También escribe sobre hombres que son feministas y hombres que son violadores, rehuyendo el estereotipo.

Souad a dix-sept ans, elle est amoureuse. Dans son village comme dans beaucoup d’autres, l’amour avant le mariage est synonyme de mort. " Déshonorée ", sa famille désigne son beau-frère pour exécuter la sentence. Aux yeux de tous, cet homme est un héros. C’est ce que l’on appelle un " crime d’honneur ". Ce n’est en fait qu’un lâche assassinat. L’exécutant ne risque rien, il n’est presque jamais poursuivi, encore plus rarement condamné. Plus de cinq mille cas sont répertoriés chaque année dans le monde, bien d’autres ne sont jamais connus.

Simone de Beauvoir affranca la donna dallo status di minore che la obbliga a essere l’Altro dall’uomo, senza avere a sua volta il diritto né l’opportunità di costruirsi come Altra. Con veemenza passa in rassegna i ruoli attribuiti dal pensiero maschile alla donna – sposa, madre, prostituta, vecchia – e i relativi attributi – narcisista, innamorata, mistica.

Was hat Scham mit Weiblichkeit zu tun? Scham zu empfinden ist vollkommen normal, ganz unabhängig vom Geschlecht. Doch Frauen schämen und entschuldigen sich besonders oft: für den eigenen Körper, weil sie als zu erfolgreich gelten, Single sind oder kinderlos bleiben. Anika Landsteiner hat ebendieses Phänomen auch bei sich festgestellt und geht der Frage nach, warum das so ist.
