Why We Like It Often you have to choose between a little sass or data driven analysis when reading about sex and gender issues. Not so with Caroline Criado-Perez's Invisible Women. As we highlight in our blog, Criado-Perez lays out the striking implications of erasing women in considerations ranging from car crash dummies and urban planning to health care and military uniforms and beyond. And she conveys this information with exactly the amount of annoyance that one would expect, which is to say, a lot. Follow Caroline on twitter @CCriadoPerez Why We Like It
As discussions of women's anger growing increasingly louder in the press, Rebecca Traister takes a hard look at why angry women make people so angry and what we can do about it. It's perfect reading at a time when we hear continuous chat about problems with some (e.g., the women) political candidates anger and not others (e.g., the men). It's an easy read, but one that will leave you good and mad. Follow Rebecca on twitter @rtraister |
