In a time when the word \u003cem\u003efeminism\u003c\/em\u003e triggers all sorts of responses, many of them conflicting and misinformed, Professor Carol Hay provides this balanced, clarifying, and inspiring examination of what it truly means to be a feminist today. She takes the reader from conceptual questions of sex, gender, intersectionality, and oppression to the practicalities of talking to children, navigating consent, and fighting for adequate space on public transit, without deviating from her clear, accessible, conversational tone. \u003cem\u003eThink Like a Feminist\u003c\/em\u003e is equally a feminist starter kit and an advanced refresher course, connecting longstanding controversies to today's headlines.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e \u003cem\u003eThink Like a Feminist\u003c\/em\u003e takes on many of the essential questions that feminism has risen up to answer: Is it nature or nurture that's responsible for our gender roles and identities? How is sexism connected to racism, classism, homophobia, transphobia, and other forms of oppression? Who counts as a woman, and who gets to decide? Why have men gotten away with rape and other forms of sexual violence for so long? What responsibility do women themselves bear for maintaining sexism? What, if anything, can we do to make society respond to women's needs and desires?\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFerocious, insightful, practical, and unapologetically opinionated, \u003cem\u003eThink Like a Feminist\u003c\/em\u003e is the perfect book for anyone who wants to understand the continuing effects of misogyny in society.
