Gabrielle Blair propõe uma mudança fundamental no debate sobre a gravidez indesejada e, consequentemente, sobre o aborto. O raciocínio é simples: a maioria esmagadora dos abortos decorre de uma gravidez indesejada, e todas as gestações indesejadas são causadas por homens. Uma nova maneira de pensar Em 28 argumentos, Blair defende que o foco dessa discussão deve deixar de ser o controle do corpo feminino e se voltar para a responsabilidade masculina.

Los pensamientos que tu mamá haya nutrido acerca de ti a partir del momento mismo de tu concepción—y aún antes de ser concebido(a)—el amor con el que te haya acogido, la relación que haya habido entre ustedes durante tu primera infancia, en la niñez y en las siguientes etapas de tu vida pueden seguir desplegando hasta la actualidad una influencia positiva o negativa sobre tu vida, dependiendo de la imagen que hayas recibido de ella.

Kristof and Sheryl WuDunn, take us on a journey through Africa and Asia to meet an extraordinary array of exceptional women struggling against terrible circumstances.

More girls are killed in this routine 'gendercide' in any one decade than people were slaughtered in all the genocides of the twentieth century.

In 2020, Georgia Harrison's world was ripped apart when her ex-boyfriend Stephen Bear shared intimate footage of her online without consent. But this is not a sad story - it's a story about the power of hope, a journey to justice, and a rallying cry for change. Thanks to Georgia's trailblazing and courageous campaign, Bear was found guilty of revenge porn, voyeurism, and two counts of disclosing private sexual photographs and films with intent to cause distress.

The use of entheogens, or psychedelics, is out of the closet today. LSD, psilocybin, MDMA, and other medicines once associated only with the counterculture are now being legally studied for their healing properties. But as Rachel Harris shows, the underground use and study of psychedelics by women dates back to the Eleusinian Mysteries of ancient Greece. Harris interviews the modern women elders carrying on this tradition to gather their hard-won wisdom of experience.

Joan Didion was a writer’s writer; not only a groundbreaking journalist, essayist, novelist and screenwriter, but a keen observer who honed her sights on life’s telling details. Her insights continue to influence creatives and admirers, encouraging them to become close observers of the world. The World According to Joan Didion is a meditation on the people, places, and objects that propelled Didion’s prose and an invitation to journalists, storytellers, and life adventurers to “throw themselves into the convulsions of the world,” as she once said.

«Ogni volta in cui le donne vengono ammazzate la reazione unanime è sempre quella di un composto, sommesso, quasi imbarazzato: "poverina"». Quando leggiamo la notizia di un femminicidio stiamo in realtà leggendo un'altra storia: quella di chi quel gesto l'ha compiuto, quasi mai di chi l'ha subito. Come se la vittima non fosse al centro della vicenda, e non potesse - neppure da morta - ricevere l'attenzione che le spetta.

Egg freezing is rarely about women postponing fertility for the sake of their careers. Rather, the most-educated women are increasingly forced to delay childbearing because they face a mating gap—a lack of eligible, educated, equal partners ready for marriage and parenthood. For these women, egg freezing is a reproductive backstop, a technological attempt to bridge the gap while waiting for the right partner. Their stories reveal the extent to which it is logistically complicated, physically taxing, financially demanding, emotionally draining, and uncertain in its effects.

Have you ever been told that your pain is imaginary? That's the reality of the more than 190 million people suffering the excruciating condition known as endometriosis. Journalist Tracey Lindeman knows it all too well. Decades of suffering from endometriosis propelled the creation of BLEED—part memoir, part investigative journalism, and all scathing indictment of how the medical system fails patients.
