Red Slicing through the fun and foibles of twenty-first-century womanhood with deft and funny prose, the book covers everything "from our noble goals to our worst hypocrisies". Existing fans of her podcast and newcomers alike will love this irreverent guide to a very modern tug of war Cal Wilson was cruelly snatched from us on 10 October 2023. Repeating this episode is our tribute to her. Okay, I have a lot to say about this one! First of all I have now read quite a few non-fiction educational books about Feminism and I've got to say this has been one of my favourites. It is writen in a way which is accessible, entertaining and informative. Although I do feel as though I am fairly educated on feminism already I definitely learnt some things I didn't know already, and I don't feel like you need any kind of knowledge of Feminism to enjoy this book. I loved it though and should be mandatory reading for all/most feminists in the western world. It's also given me more confidence to get out there and take up space and not apologise and can the whole 'if it's okay, if you don't mind, I know you're busy' shit.

I went into this book not knowing what to expect. In all honesty, I saw this book in the "New release" section in Waterstones, and as soon as I saw the word "Feminist" on the front cover, I thought "Yes Sister! I just HAVE to buy this!" The show has featured guests such as Shappi Khorsandi, [2] Gemma Arterton, [11] Dawn O'Porter, and Aisling Bea. [7] Frances-White aims to create diverse and inclusive panels of guests. [2] Reception [ edit ] Apparently, Deborah Frances-White has a podcast, which I have also never tuned into. I may have to rectify that at some point. This book explores feminism in quite a frank way, but I didn't find all of it engaging. It covers the issues women have to deal with in a male dominated work place, abuse and even sexual issues.

This is the story of Wu Zetian, who as ‘Chinese Emperor’ helped to spread Buddhism in China. This is the story of Genghis Khan’s powerful daughters, who ruled his empire for him. This is the story of Christine de Pizan, one of the earliest feminist writers. This is the story of Victoria Woodhull, who ran for president before she could even vote for one. If you’re looking to explore the importance of feminism in society, we have 12 of the best feminist books to read in 2023, one for each month of the year. The honest and open conversations on the topic of women’s rights and gender equality are so important and whether you define yourself as a feminist or not, the issues these fiction and non-fiction titles raise are both eye-opening and crucial to the continued debate.

Presented by Deborah Frances-White and Cal Wilson with special guest Julia Gillard and music from Grace Petrie. Once upon a time, history was written by men, for men and about men. Women were deemed less important, their letters destroyed, their stories ignored. An eloquent, entertaining read that does not shy away from serious issues including pornography and the gender pay gap Presented by Deborah Frances-White and Abigoliah Schamaun with special guests Chris Lani-McAllister and Danica Lani. Barbara Ellen, Observer A passionate, funny, fresh, thought-provoking read, as engaging as it's informative

Whether you are someone who fills with fear at the idea of speaking in front of people or you are totally comfortable and just looking to improve or indeed if you have done Big Speeches and you would like to refresh or top up your skills this is the surprising, challenging and ultimately joy-filled course for you. I would have liked to have seen issues such as female genital mutilation, abortion and reproductive rights and the gender pay gap discussed in more detail but I appreciate that these topics alone could fill a whole other book.

Shakespeare’s Globe. 12 December. 6:00pm. https://www.shakespearesglobe.com/whats-on/the-guilty-feminist-2021/ The Guilty Feminist is a feminist comedy podcast hosted by Deborah Frances-White. Created by Frances-White and Sofie Hagen in 2015, the podcast features guests on a panel to discuss topics on and related to feminism, and is recorded in front of a live audience. Elsewhere, Frances-White makes cases for everything from the fun of makeup, to it not necessarily being better if little girls dress up as Spider-Man instead of Elsa from Frozen (“There is an implication that male traits are better than female ones”), through to “bridezillas” constituting a power grab (but only because most men aren’t remotely interested in wedding preparations?), and how perhaps a well-expressed catcall signifies a celebration of female fertility, when men are “fertile until they die”.

It’s a rallying call to feminist activism and intersectional feminism in general. She has included some thoughtful interviews of the topics of fat positivity, race, disability, and gender diversity. An easy 5 stars and a book I could glean new insights from the more I re-read it.
