| Summary: | What the hell happened?<br> In The Great Feminist Denial the authors talk with women--feminists and non-feminists, young and old, famous and not famous, child-free and with child--and use their responses as a starting point from which to refocus the key debates.<br> Dux and Simic argue that, ultimately, feminism is still necessary for everyday life. Even the most cursory glimpse at the social and cultural landscape suggests an urgent need for a politics that identifies inequalities, differences and strengths specific to women as a sex.<br> The Great Feminist Denial puts an ailing feminist past to rest, and proposes a way forward that offers young women of today a new way of calling themselves feminists. |
