libscote 's review for:
Full Frontal Feminism
by Jessica Valenti
I think this is a good introduction to feminism, and it definitely left me feeling more fired up (in a productive way) than I had in a while. I think the cover image is an interesting choice considering the inside content. I do understand the complaint that it focuses a lot on young white upper-class cisgendered straight able-bodied women, however, since it is an introductory text, I guess I am okay with that. It's not that they are ignored completely, but the focus could be seen as what I listed above. Of course, maybe that is easy for me to say since I fit pretty perfectly into that description. I guess I'll have to read more reviews by other people. Overall, for me, it was a good book.
ETA: I just reread the subtitle of the book and was thinking further about what the book is about. Does the book guide young women to realize why feminism matters? I think it does.
