Uff. Harter Tobak, aber richtig wichtig!

In diesem Buch zerlegt Alexandra Zykunov 25 Bullshitsätze, die vor allem Frauen in der Gegenwart immer noch zu hören bekommen was die Gleichberechtigung zwischen Mann und Frau angeht. Jeder einzelne Bullshitsatz wird mithilfe von Studien, Zahlen und weiteren knallharten Fakten widerlegt. Als Frau war mir schon vor dem Lesen des Buches klar, dass wir nicht gleichberechtigt sind und dass diese Standardsätze absoluter Bullshit sind. Das aber so geballt nochmal zu hören und mit Fakten unterlegt zu bekommen, ist eine ganz andere Nummer und hat mich zwischendurch sehr wütend gemacht. Ich kann dieses Buch jedem ans Herz legen, denn es zeigt deutlich, wie weit wir von Gleichberechtigung noch entfernt sind.

Whew. Tough stuff, but really important!

In this book, Alexandra Zykunov dissects 25 bullshit sentences that women in particular are still hearing today about equality between men and women. Every single bullshit sentence is refuted with the help of studies, figures and other hard facts. As a woman, it was already clear to me before reading the book that we are not equal and that these standard phrases are absolute bullshit. But to hear that again in such a concentrated way and to have it underpinned with facts is a completely different matter and made me very angry in between. I can recommend this book to everyone, because it clearly shows how far we are from equality.
