German National Radio voted "The 7 Best Books for Young Readers"!
Uncover the prejudices and myths of "feminism" and usher in the real era of "equal rights"!
Feminism? Does anyone still need it now? Isn't everyone equal already? Of course things are not that simple. Turn on the TV, and women’s figures are still the focus of criticism; in the workplace, it is common for men and women to be paid differently for equal work; in families, housework and childcare are still regarded as women’s “vocations”...In today’s rapidly changing technology, Women's status is still stagnant yesterday.
As a concept, "feminism" tries to achieve gender equality and eliminate gender discrimination by clarifying gender norms. As the #MeToo trend sweeps the world, more and more people are rethinking the importance of gender issues, but do we really understand what "feminism" is? How has feminism affected our lives?
This book is written by a well-known editor-in-chief of German news. Starting from the development history of the feminist movement, it explores the images of women in contemporary society, aesthetic standards, gender relations, sexual violence, and women's roles in work and family. Discrimination and anti-feminism, with concrete suggestions on how we can fight back against typical prejudices.
Feminism isn't a slogan, it's a belief; it's not just about women, it's about all of us. "Gender" can affect how we are a "person". If we want to break the injustice of "sex discrimination", we can only stand up for equality by ourselves. Now is the time to take action!
