Women Don't Owe You Pretty

Written by Florence Given

Narrated by Florence Given

WRITER AND ACTIVIST FLORENCE GIVEN TELLS YOU HOW FEMINISM IS GOING TO RUIN YOUR LIFE (IN THE BEST WAY POSSIBLE).

A vibrantly illustrated primer on modern feminism for the Instagram generation encouraging us to question the insidious narratives that would hold us back from self-acceptance, self-love, and our own power. With her refreshingly audacious voice and unmistakable art style, Florence Given explores all corners of the conversation, from overcoming insecurity projection and the tendency to find comfort in other women's flaws to how to recognize and fight against the male gaze and other toxic cultural baggage and embracing sex and body positivity. Women Don't Owe You Pretty is here to remind us that everyone is valuable as they are and we owe the world nothing, least of all pretty.

This was an amazing listen and really made me think about who I am as a person and what matters to me, versus what I do to conform to others' expectations of me. I both aggressively nodded along in agreement and reflected on personal behaviors and decisions where I've settled for "crumbs," and continue to. This is a must read.

I love how everything was clear and understandable in a way that celebrated or respected each experience. Very well written and eye opening, even for long time feminists that thought they’ve heard it all.

Honestamente, empezó interesante, pero es un libro de autoayuda basado en teoría feminista u no hay nada que odie más que los lo ros de autoayuda (más a los que no se atreven a ponerse esta etiqueta). Le daría menos estrellas, pero no se puede.

No ofrece nada nuevo y parece que intenta mucho ser "buena" feminista.

Parece algo que leería en una publicación de Instagram.

Lo recomendé y me arrepentí después del tercer capítulo.
