About this audiobook
A casual conversation about menopause ultimately led to a grassroots movement that raised awareness about violence against women in the form of a play, The Vagina Monologues. Here Ensler discusses how violence against women affects everyone and why patriarchy actually oppresses men as well as women, and much more.
