The following are only the books I’ve listed under “Feminist Reading” on my kindle
- The Beauty Myth: How Images of Beauty are Used Against Women (although I’ve never read this and am annoyed w/ Naomi Wolf right now so probably will put it off a while longer)
- Tomboys: A Literary and Cultural History
- Feminism is for Everybody
- The Purity Myth: How America’s Obsession with Virginity is Hurting Young Women (which I’ve actually already read)
- Sisterhood, Interrupted: From Radical Women to Grrrls Gone Wild
- Sexual Politics of Meat: a feminist vegetarian critical theory
- I Am Your Sister: Collected and Unpublished works of Audre Lorde
- Fight Like a Girl: How to be a Fearless Feminist
- The Female Eunuch
- Gender Trouble: Feminism and the Subversion of Identity (I’ve read a bit of this. Wow is Judith Butler dense reading. Good stuff, but dense).
- Third Wave Feminism and Television: Jane Puts it in a Box
- Black Feminist Thought: Knowledge Consciousness, and the Politics of Empowerment
- The Vagina Monologues (which I’ve read but why not have it in ebook?!)
I’ve also got a handful of memoir and fiction books that probably could fall into the general ‘feminism’ category.
Apparently when you write a feminist work, you MUST have a title and the a :subtitle.
And this is to say nothing of all my physical books sitting on their shelves, or all of the non-feminist related reading I have (both in book and ebook form).
What’s really weird is I started this post to say “these are some of the things I’m interested in - recommend some more feminist books to me!” - because clearly I don’t have enough to read?
