How to Be a Woman

<p><strong><em>NEW YORK TIMES </em>BESTSELLER</strong></p><p><strong>The book that launched a feminist revolution--the hilarious memoir/manifesto from Caitlin Moran the UK's answer to Tina Fey Chelsea Handler and Lena Dunham all rolled into one (<em>Marie Claire</em>).</strong></p><p>Though they have the vote and the Pill and haven't been burned as witches since 1727 life isn't exactly a stroll down the catwalk for modern women. They are beset by uncertainties and questions: Why are they supposed to get Brazilians? Why do bras hurt? Why the incessant talk about babies? And do men secretly hate them?</p><p>Caitlin Moran interweaves provocative observations on women's lives with laugh-out-loud funny scenes from her own from the riot of adolescence to her development as a writer wife and mother. With rapier wit Moran slices right to the truth--whether it's about the workplace strip clubs love fat abortion popular entertainment or children--to jump-start a new conversation about feminism. With humor insight and verve <em>How to Be a Woman</em> lays bare the reasons why female rights and empowerment are essential issues not only for women today but also for society itself.</p>
