Download The Essential Gloria Steinem Reader Book in PDF, ePub and Kindle
Gloria Steinem, one of the most iconic feminist thinkers of the world, spent her early years in India. Her time in the country revealed to Gloria the Gandhian insight that change, like a tree, must grow from the bottom up. Subsequently, her decades of work with the feminist movement in the US and across the world taught her that violence and domination are normalized by the false division of human beings into subject and object, the dominator and the dominated, 'masculine' and 'feminine'. In As if Women Matter, Gloria Steinem and activist Ruchira Gupta bring together a selection of ground-breaking essays by Gloria which, since the time that they were first written, have transcended borders and have laid the groundwork for much of modern feminist thought. In these pages, Gloria demonstrates how racism and discrimination based on caste and class differences cannot survive without controlling women's bodies-she also describes the many ways in which women and men are fighting that control. She brilliantly analyzes Adolf Hitler's obsession with masculinity, and finds a gendered understanding of violence in the making. She distinguishes between erotica and pornography, locating the difference between the two in the inequality that governs relations between the sexes. And, in addition to a trenchant account of a few days she spent as a Playboy Bunny, this volume also carries a never-before-published essay on sex trafficking by Gloria, 'The Third Way'. As if Women Matter is scholarly, profound, and leavened by a lightness of touch which makes the most complex arguments accessible to all readers.

Download The Pleasure Gap Book in PDF, ePub and Kindle
American culture is more sexually liberal than ever. But compared to men, women's sexual pleasure has not grown: Up to 40 percent of American women experience the sexual malaise clinically known as low sexual desire. Between this low desire, muted pleasure, and experiencing sex in terms of labor rather than of lust, women by the millions are dissatisfied with their erotic lives. For too long, this deficit has been explained in terms of women's biology, stress, and age. In The Pleasure Gap, Katherine Rowland rejects the idea that women should settle for diminished pleasure; instead, she argues women should take inequality in the bedroom as seriously as we take it in the workplace and understand its causes and effects. Drawing on extensive research and interviews with more than one hundred women and dozens of sexual health professionals, Rowland shows that the pleasure gap is neither medical malady nor psychological condition but rather a result of our culture's troubled relationship with women's sexual expression. This provocative exploration of modern sexuality makes a case for closing the gap for good.

Download Gender and Justice Book in PDF, ePub and Kindle
Intended for use in courses on law and society, as well as courses in women's and gender studies, women and politics, and women and the law - this book that takes up the question of what women judges signify in several different jurisdictions in the United States, United Kingdom, and European Union. In so doing, its empirical case studies uniquely offer a model of how to study gender as a social process rather than merely studying women and treating sex as a variable. A gender analysis yields a fuller understanding of emotions and social movement mobilization, backlash, policy implementation, agenda setting, and representation. Lastly, the book makes a non-essentialist case for more women judges, that is, one that does not rest on women's difference.

Download Uncovered Book in PDF, ePub and Kindle
"In her foreword, author Susan Seligson states what all men and women already know: "Breasts are an inexplicably big deal." Whether hidden under layers of clothing, half-revealed in the service of fashion (and flirtation) or laid brazenly bare, breasts matter. They demand response, provoke moral questions and force confrontation with the very notion of taboo. Over a period of six years, Jordan Matter photographed over 100 women bare-breasted in New York City. They varied in terms of age, education and profession. Every one was a volunteer. Every subject faced reactions to her decision to defy convention, and many confronted feelings of shame and inadequacy. But after the shoots, the women were unexpectedly euphoric--and Matter wondered just what he had uncovered. Many of the women agreed to interviews or wrote their own texts for this collection, revealing their journeys toward self-acceptance. The result is a remarkable chorus of shared experience, secret fears, optimism and wisdom. Uncovered celebrates the controversial female body. But it also honors the individual women who were willing to confront their culture and themselves. These are their images and their stories, in their own words." -- Publisher's description

Download Relationships Matter Book in PDF, ePub and Kindle
Women who want to advance their careers know they must develop a network. Yet for most women, especially those at mid-career level, building a network is an arduous task that ends up low on the priority list. Women at this level are prone to hunker down, work hard, and expect their work to speak for itself. They assume that excellent work will be rewarded with advancement. They also assume that getting ahead by "playing the game" will compromise their integrity.In this ground-breaking book, Dr. Rosina Racioppi, President and CEO of WOMEN Unlimited, Inc., explains why these assumptions are dead wrong. While excellent work is a prerequisite for success, without strategic thinking, visibility, and the ability to leverage relationships for knowledge, resources, and practical wisdom, outstanding work is a dead end.Relationships Matter draws on WOMEN Unlimited's extensive experience partnering with Fortune 1000 organizations, the author's comprehensive research, and in-depth interviews with 10 successful leaders. In these pages, you'll discover: - Why a sense of curiosity could be one of your top assets - How to play the game without compromising yourself - Why what you know is less important than who knows what you know - How to determine and grow the right network to achieve your goals - How to remain authentic while strategically developing relationships While grounded in research, Dr. Racioppi's recommendations are practical and actionable-and she shares them in the context of compelling stories of women who have achieved their career dreams.
