From reproductive rights and the wage gap to #MeToo and #TimesUp-gender inequality permeates nearly every aspect of our culture. From birth and on through adulthood, the message that our sexist society sends to women and girls is clear: you're not enough.
You’re not valued enough to get paid the same salary as a man with the same job title. You’re not worthy enough or perfect enough to be taken seriously or respected. You’re not responsible enough to make decisions about your body or reproductive rights.
These negative messages are internalized on a deep psychological level. In fact, the effects of sexism are directly represented in the high rates of anxiety, depression, sleep problems, and eating disorders among women and girls—and these effects are even more severe for queer women, disabled women, and women of color. Isn’t it time you said ENOUGH?
This revolutionary feminist self-help guide offers real tools you can use to:
- Combat the effects of discrimination and gender/race inequality
- Improve your self-confidence, gain self-esteem, and build resilience
- Actively resist internalized negative messages you've received while living in an openly sexist, patriarchal culture
There's a lot of work to do. This book will help you get started now.
