Titoli in Studi sulla femminilità

As women, we're expected to be sexy, but not sexual. We're bombarded with conflicting, shame-inducing, and disempowering messages about sex, instead of being encouraged to connect with our true sexual selves. Sexy gets reduced to a performance, leaving us with little to no space to reckon with the complexities of sexuality. In a culture intent on telling you who and how to be, standing in your truth is revolutionary.

What's the recipe for a successful relationship? How does one look after intimacy and overcome a crisis? After the success of her previous book Chill. You Can't Be Perfect Anyway, Tatiana Mindewicz-Puacz focuses on relations between partners. It would seem that when it comes to love, the most important thing is to fall in love and after that everything will fall into place - we will live happily ever after. Why, then, do so many of us feel lonely in our relationships? Why, after some time, do our conversations turn into battles?

Your menstrual cycle is your fifth vital sign - a barometer of health and wellness that is as telling as your pulse or blood pressure. Yet most of us see our periods as nothing more than a source of inconvenience and embarrassment. The reasons for this are vast and complex and many are rooted in misogyny. The fact is, women the world over are taught the bare minimum about menstruation, and the messages they do receive are negative: That periods are painful and gross, that they turn us into hormonal messes, and that they shouldn't be discussed.

Dr. Ernst Gräfenberg was among the most sought-after gynecologists in pre-World War II Germany. The creator of the first IUD, known as the Gräfenberg ring, he was posthumously credited with identifying the eponymous "Gräfenberg spot" or G-spot. He was also a Jew in Nazi Germany, and by 1938 he had been stripped of his practice, his possessions, and his freedom and was languishing in a Nazi prison.

This is an unconventional biography of an unconventional woman. Eglantyne Jebb moved from drawing rooms to war zones, often defying expectation and at times breaking the law. Although not fond of individual children, she founded Save the Children and originated the revolutionary concept of children's human rights. Clare Mulley brings to life the brilliant, charismatic, passionate, and compassionate woman, whose work has saved millions of lives and permanently changed the way the world treats children. Save the Children ambassador Joely Richardson narrates this extraordinary story.

Delving behind Canada’s veneer of multiculturalism and tolerance, Policing Black Lives traces the violent realities of anti-Blackness from the slave ships to prisons, classrooms, and beyond. Robyn Maynard provides listeners with the first comprehensive account of nearly 400 years of state-sanctioned surveillance, criminalization, and punishment of Black lives in Canada. While highlighting the ubiquity of Black resistance, Policing Black Lives traces the still-living legacy of slavery across multiple institutions.

Old New Worlds intertwines the immigrant stories of the author and her great-great grandmother. Sarah Barker and her new husband sail from England in 1815 to minister to the indigenous Khoihoi in South Africa’s Eastern Cape. In the midst of conflict, illness, and natural disasters, Sarah bears 16 children. Two hundred years later, Judith leaves post-apartheid South Africa with her new American husband to immigrate to the United States. She is drawn to Sarah’s immigrant story in the context of her own experience, and she sets out to try and trace her.

The grass isn't greener on the other side: Heiresses have always been viewed with eyes of envy. They were the ones for whom the cornucopia had been upended, showering them with unimaginable wealth and opportunity. However, through intimate historical biographies, Women of Means shows us that oftentimes the weaving sisters saved their most heart-wrenching tapestries for the destinies of wealthy women. Women of Means is bound to be a non-fiction best seller, full of the best biographies of all time.

Derrière ce titre ironique, Roxane Gay développe une réflexion révolutionnaire et bienvenue sur l'état actuel du féminisme. Lassée des prises de position parfois trop clivantes de certaines organisations féministes, elle rappelle que la défense de l'égalité des sexes ne dispense pas d'assumer ses contradictions. On peut aimer la télé-réalité, se peindre les ongles en rose et revendiquer le fait d'être féministe.

Enfant de l'immigration, Lydia Guirous, n'a pas eu de difficulté à s'intégrer. La France, elle l'aime. Trop peut-être ? Au point de déranger ceux qui voudraient qu'elle la rejette ? À mi-chemin entre le manifeste et le témoignage, l'auteur pointe la dangereuse dérive d'une France qui a honte de ses valeurs, de son histoire et abdique face à la montée du communautarisme et de l'islam radical.

Jodidas pero contentas es una reflexión divertida sobre la complejidad de ser mujer, de lo exigente, absurdo y mil veces contradictorio del rol femenino. De la lata tan enorme que da eso de tratar de ser una mujer perfecta, ser una "supergüoman", donde se da por hecho que ya tenemos que saber cómo serlo por el simple hecho de haber nacido mujeres y cómo en realidad, estamos totalmente perdidas, agotadas, estresadas y salimos del paso lo mejor que podemos, que ya es mucho.

Egyptian-born and London-raised, Alya Mooro grew up between two cultures and felt a pull from both. Where could she turn for advice and inspiration when it seemed there was nobody else like her?
