"Why we should so admire "a woman's crown of hair" and not admire a Chinaman's queue is hard to explain, except that we are so convinced that the long hair "belongs" to a woman. Whereas the "mane" in horses is on both, and in lions, buffalos, and such creatures only on the male."
This book is a piece of hilarious, witty and pointed commentary on gender stereotypes. If there is a genre called #funnyfeministliterature, this is it. ?
Tanisha_A Thank you, @SerialReader ! 5y
BookishMe Will look out for this on the app. I read The Yellow Wallpaper, thanks to the trusty app!! 5y
ju.ca.no I've had this on my wishlist for some time now, but only because I loved the Yelllow Wallpaper so much - not really knowing what this was about. Now, after this review, it has definitely moved much much higher on my list!! 5y
