"Girl Up is the second book by Laura Bates who started the Everyday Sexism website and social media phenomenon where women share experiences of sexism that they have experienced. The aim was to highlight the myriad ways that women experience sexism in their everyday life - an issue often overlooked in the headlines of wage gap, body image and so on. Bates' first book, Everyday Sexism, collected a lot of these shared stories and was a powerful and depressing read." - Amazon Reviewer

  • Mô tả

They told you you need to be thin and beautiful.
They told you to wear longer skirts, avoid going out late at night and move in groups - never accept drinks from a stranger, and wear shoes you can run in more easily than heels.
They told you to wear just enough make-up to look presentable but not enough to be a slut; to dress to flatter your apple, pear, hourglass figure, but not to be too tarty.
They warned you that if you try to be strong, or take control, you'll be shrill, bossy, a ballbreaker. Of course it's fine for the boys, but know your place.
They told you "that's not for girls" - "take it as a compliment" - "don't rock the boat" - "that'll go straight to your hips". They told you "beauty is on the inside" but you knew they didn't really mean it.
Well f**k that. I'm here to tell you something else.

In her next book, Everyday Sexism Project founder Laura Bates gives bold and tangible arguments against the unrealistic pressures we face, undercutting imposed societal stereotypes with intelligent wit. Part manifesto, part agony column, this is a hilarious must-read with illustrations, infographics and cartoons to encapsulate the truth about sex, body image, pornography, relationships, social media, feminism and all the other lies they told us.
