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.

Heroines in History: A Thousand Faces moves beyond stories of individual heroines, taking a thematic, synthesizing, and global in scope approach to challenge previous understandings of heroines in history. Responding to Joseph Campbell's Hero with a Thousand Faces, Katie Pickles explores the idea of a transcultural heroine archetype that recurs through time. Each chapter addresses an archetypal theme important for heroines in history. 

The Foxfire Magazine, a literary journal first published in 1967 in Rabun Gap, Georgia, was founded on the belief that stories and meaning could be found in Appalachian spaces, not only in classics such as Shakespeare. Filled with poetry and prose from local students and authors, the magazine also featured interviews with relatives and neighbors. These oral histories conducted by students from the Rabun Gap-Nacoochee School quickly became the star of the magazine. Now, pulled from the vast Foxfire archive, come twenty-one oral histories from southern Appalachian women.

Demonic temptresses–from siren-mermaids to Lilith–are well known today, and their mythology focuses around the seductive danger they pose to men. But the root of these figures can be traced back 4,000 years and in their earliest incarnations they were in fact demons worshipped and feared by women.

Game On is a celebration of the trailblazing women opening doors for others, and a manifesto for women’s sports–a rallying cry to ensure the progress we are currently seeing goes from strength to strength.

1974. A 22-year-old Jacqui French stands for a photograph in Omaha, Nebraska, thousands of miles from home. Behind a carefree smile lies a fierce hope, fuelled by the promise of a new beginning and the tapestry of opportunity an America of Gloria Steinem, Dorothy Pitman Hughes, and the newly passed Roe v. Wade, appeared to offer. The world was changing, and women’s fortunes seemed to be changing with it. It was this photo of her mother, discovered by accident decades later, that set Marisa on the path to this book.

Die Ehe ist in unserer Gesellschaft unantastbar. Trotz ihrer Institutionalisierung wird sie als Inbegriff der Liebe romantisiert und mythisch verklärt. Dabei verschärft eine Heirat für Frauen oft die Ungleichheit, und sie führt zu finanzieller Abhängigkeit. Die Bestseller-Autorin Emilia Roig blickt hinter die Fassade eines patriarchalen Konstrukts und weist Wege zu einer Revolution der Liebe. Die Ehe normiert Beziehungen und Familie, kontrolliert Sexualität, den Besitz und die Arbeitskraft. Sie ist eine wichtige Stütze des Kapitalismus und lässt uns in binären Geschlechterrollen verharren.

As women, we all have our own personal preferences when it comes to the type of man we want to date or be in a relationship with. However, it's safe to say that most of us desire a partner who possesses certain qualities, such as honesty, loyalty, respect, responsibility, empathy, support, communication skills, trustworthiness, kindness, and a good sense of humor.
