    About this audiobook

    A diverse group of celebrities, activists, and artists open up about what feminism means to them, with the goal of helping readers come to their own personal understanding of the word.

    Feminists Don't Wear Pink and Other Lies is a collection of writing from extraordinary women, from Hollywood actresses to teenage activists, each telling the story of her personal relationship with feminism. Often funny, sometimes surprising, and always inspiring, this book aims to bridge the gap between the feminist hashtag and the scholarly text by giving women the space to explain how they actually feel about feminism.

      A collection of essays from women in fields as diverse as acting, journalism, activism, and academia discussing what feminism means to them. The collection works hard to be intersectional and has both British and American perspectives included (although maybe slightly more weighted to the British end) and as with any collection there are hits and misses throughout. My biggest quandary while reading was determining who this collection is for. The introduction (and my library's classification which reflects a larger publisher classification) seems to mark the book as being for teens and college-aged women. However, the vast majority of essays in this collection are of interest to feminists of all ages and there are several essays that I would argue aren't going to be as resonant for teens at all. For example, I adored Helen Fielding's revival of Bridget Jones to rant about feminism but I'm not sure how enjoyable the read would be for teens who weren't even alive when the first Bridget Jones book was published. That aside, this is a smart, inspiring, and challenging collection of essays and I encourage you to pick it up if even only one of the contributors names intrigues you.
