This stirring and intimate collection brings together 30 unique narratives to paint a vivid portrait of what it means to be a queer Nigerian woman. Covering an array of experiences—the joy and excitement of first love, the agony of lost love and betrayal, the sometimes-fraught relationship between sexuality and spirituality, addiction and suicide, childhood games and laughter—She Called Me Woman sheds light on how Nigerian queer women, despite their differences, attempt to build a life together in a climate of fear.

Black women are heading to college in record numbers, and more and more Black women are teaching in higher education. But these statistics don’t guarantee our safety there. Willpower and grit may improve achievement for Black people in school, but they don’t secure our belonging. In fact, the very structure of higher education ensures that we’re treated as guests, outsiders to the institutional family—outnumbered and unwelcome.

Editor Angela P. Dodson brings together the voices of more than thirty-five accomplished women writers on the topic of violence and injustice against Black men. These writers are journalists, authors, scholars, ministers, psychologists, counselors, and other experts. They are also wives, mothers, sisters, daughters, aunties, and friends. Each lends her voice to shine a new light on the injustices and dangers Black men face daily, and how women feel about the vulnerability of our sons, husbands, brothers, fathers, uncles, friends, and other males we care about.

"Verantwortungsvoll ejakulieren" ist der provokante Debattentext für alle, die keine Angst davor haben, patriarchal geprägte Tabus zu brechen. Gabrielle Blair knöpft sich in diesem New York Times-Bestseller den Mythos vor, dass Verhütung Frauensache sei. In 28 bestechenden Argumenten legt sie dar, warum sich Männer darum kümmern müssen – aus physiologischen ebenso wie aus Gerechtigkeitsgründen. Denn Männer können lebenslang 24/7 Kinder zeugen, während Frauen pro Zyklus nur einen Tag fruchtbar sind. Darüber hinaus können Frauen ihren Eisprung nicht verhindern, während Männer ihren Samen durchaus lenken können – und sei es in ein Kondom.

“Gripping . . . a call to action—and accountability—for the entire fashion industry.”—Marie Claire A bold memoir that explores who holds the power in an image-obsessed culture, from the model and activist who helped organize the movement to bring equity to fashion “By elevating me...

Resulta fascinante que un cuerpo sin pelo, fruto de un artefacto social como la depilación, se considere muestra de feminidad innata. Lo lógico sería que el vello corporal, que separa a la niña de la mujer, se considerase intrínsecamente femenino, incluso sexi. Sin embargo, ocurre todo lo contrario, infantilizamos a las mujeres al tiempo que sexualizamos a las niñas. La mayoría de las mujeres que se depilan afirman hacerlo porque quieren, porque se sienten más atractivas o por motivos de higiene. No depilarse o mostrar públicamente que no lo hacen suele ser, más bien, una decisión política.

At the heart of this history is the female body. The century-span between the crinoline and the bikini witnessed more mutations in the ideal western woman's body shape than at any other period. In this richly detailed account, Virginia Nicholson takes us to the Frontline of Beauty to reveal the power, the pain and the pleasure involved in adorning the female body. Encompassing two world wars and a revolution in women's rights, All the Rage tells the story of western female beauty from 1860 to 1960.

Wendy Lower’s stunning account of the role of German women on the World War II Nazi eastern front powerfully revises history, proving that we have ignored the reality of women’s participation in the Holocaust, including as brutal killers. The long-held picture of German women holding down...

Cartagena was an important Spanish port and the site of an Inquisition high court, a slave market, a leper colony, a military base, and a prison colony—colonial institutions that imposed order by enforcing Catholicism, cultural and religious boundaries, and prevailing race and gender hierarchies. The city was also simmering with illegal activity, from contraband trade to prostitution to heretical religious practices. Nicole von Germeten's research uncovers scandalous stories drawn from archival research in Inquisition cases, criminal records, wills, and other legal documents.

The idea that gender is a performance—a tenet of queer feminist theory since the 1990s—has spread from college classrooms to popular culture. In Performance All the Way Down, MacArthur Fellow and Pulitzer Prize finalist Richard O. Prum brings gender performativity into conversation with genetics, development, and evolutionary biology, arguing that the sexual binary is not essential to human genes, chromosomes, or embryos. Our genomes are not blueprints, algorithms, or recipes for the physical representation of our personal sexual essences or fates.

This essential audiobook is a rallying cry for women to recognize and reject the ways social media is being weaponized against us — and instead wield it to empower ourselves. In Over the Influence, communication professor and CNN Opinion contributor Kara Alaimo reveals how social media is...

Ein Hörbuch über alles, was Frauen wissen sollten, bevor sie in die kaltherzige Welt des Kapitalismus hineingeworfen werden Die Arbeitswelt ist politisch – vor allem für Menschen, die weiblich sozialisiert wurden.

Auch heute noch. Oder wussten Sie, dass Algorithmen Frauen automatisch kleinere Kredite gewähren? Dass die Energiekrise die Preise für weibliche Produkte höher steigen ließ als für männliche? Und war Ihnen klar, dass deutsche Gesetze Väter daran hindern, Kindkranktage zu nehmen? Nein? Dann sollten Sie dieses Hörbuch hören.

Caitlin Moranová před deseti lety předpokládala, že má všechny trable za sebou. Ve svém globálním bestselleru Jak být ženou se vypořádala s patriarchátem, feminismem a vším tím, co obnáší moderní „ženství“, a měl ji čekat spokojený dospělý život plný skvělého sexu a harmonického rodičovství. Nečekal. V nové knize se proto zaobírá výzvami, které v současnosti čekají na „zralé“ ženy a stává se tak naším břitkým průvodcem dospělostí i smířením s faktem, že seznam povinností, potřeb a potíží se bude jen prodlužovat.
