Summary

Since women earned the right to vote a little under one hundred years ago, our progress hasn't been the Olympic sprint toward gender equality first wave feminists hoped for, but more of a slow, elderly mall walk over the four hundred million hurdles we still face. Some of these obstacles are obvious: unequal pay, under-representation in government, reproductive restrictions, lack of floor-length mirrors in hotel rooms. But a lot of them are the white noise of oppression that we've accepted as lady business as usual, and the patriarchy wants to keep it that way. Gibson's collection of make-you-laugh-until-you-cry essays expose the hidden rules that make life as a woman unnecessarily hard-- and deconstructs them in a way that's bold, provocative and hilarious. -- adapted from publisher info
