How To Win At Feminism

How to Win at Feminism: The Definitive Guide To Having It All-And Then Some, presented by Reductress is a satirical view on the realism of feminism. The views in this book are unnerving, borderline vulgar and downright hilarious. Geared more towards the heterosexual woman (although they love their lesbians) is a gruesome look at how feminism really works.

This book is done in a comical undertone, but the point-of-views and ideology behind the words speak (or read) volumes. How To Win At Feminism informs its readers on:

  • How to Do More with 33 Cents Less
  • How to Be Sex-Positive Even When You’re Bloated
  • How to Love Your Body Even Though Hers Is Better
  • The 9 Circles of Hell for Women Who Don’t Help Other Women
  • Designer Handbags to Hold All Your Feminism
  • How to Get Catcalled For Your Personality

And many other realistic views from influential women in comedy and journalism. Feminism is a way of life for some and this book takes that way of life to another level. Showing the reader how to take Feminism seriously, but not too seriously. This book makes sure you don't take things too literal, if you do, then this book may give you a heart attack.

With quirky interludes throughout the text, this book tells how the world views feminism: they know it's there, and that it should be a force to be reckoned with, but not so much that a man would lose out or exchange his status for that of a woman's. Don't be the prettier girl either, if you don't support other women, well then you are getting a foot right up the bum with this book.

Reductress.com is an excellent site, well put together, that has a little bit of everything: news, sports, podcasts, ETC, as long and you're an innovative woman then you will benefit from it. If you're not, well then I can't help you. Reading the book, then visiting the site made all the sense in the world. These ladies are awesome.

If you don't mind the "straight-talk" about sex and other male-driven paradigms, then How To Win At Feminism is just the book you're looking for to spark your curiosity in feminism. This book shares how you can really have it all.

18 Things I Want To Do Now That I'm 18

I'm technically an adult, so I'm legally required to live a little, right?

Happy Birthday Cake

For the entirety of my high school career, I was always seen as the goody-two-shoes. I never got in trouble with a teacher, I kept stellar grades, and when I wasn't doing extracurricular activities, I was at home studying. Even when I did go out, it was usually with a bunch of fellow band geeks. The night would end before 11:00 PM and the only controversial activity would be a fight based on who unfairly won a round of Apples-to-Apples when someone else clearly had a better card (I promise I'm not still holding a grudge).

Now that I'm officially an adult, I want to pursue some new things. I want to experience life in a way that I never allowed myself to do prior to entering college. These are the years that I'm supposed to embark on a journey of self-discovery, so what better way to do that than to create a bucket list?

So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.
