Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It's Time to Step UpIt's time for us to band together--women and men--to put an end to the toxic patriarchy we're living in. Let's be clear, patriarchy is NOT men. It's a system in which men hold all the power and women are largely excluded. That's the world we're still inexplicably living in. It's time to build a truly equitable democracy that we can be proud to pass on to future generations. A future in which all our sons will grow up to be responsible and respectful, without a hint of entitlement. A future in which all our daughters will not have a plethora of #MeToo stories, where sexual harassment or assault will be the rare exception, not the rule. And that's what this coloring book is for. To inspire you to be heard, be seen, and be believed. To KNOW you matter. To keep fighting for your rights, keep fighting to make this world a better place. Between these pages, you'll find 38 beautiful, single-sided frameable designs with stirring messages to remind you of the power you hold, to embrace your well-justified anger and channel it to effect change. We CAN do it. We MUST do it.Let's get smashing.* A portion of the proceeds from this book will be donated to nonprofit organizations that empower women. Because fuck the patriarchy.

Download or read book Fuck Happiness written by Ariel Gore and published by Microcosm Publishing. This book was released on 2020-05-12 with total page 134 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Happiness is big business. Books, consultants, psychologists, organizations, and even governments tout happiness secrets that are backed by scientific findings. The problem is that all of this science is done by and for cis white men. And some of the most vocal of these happiness experts were announcing that women could become happier by espousing "traditional" values and eschewing feminism. Skeptical of this hypothesis, Ariel Gore took a deep dive into the optimism industrial complex, reading the history, combing the research, attending the conferences, interviewing the thought leaders, and exploring her own and her friends' personal experiences and desires. Fuck Happiness is a nuanced, thoughtful examination of what happiness means and to whom, how it's played a role in defining modern gender roles and power structures, and how we can all have a more empowered relationship with the pursuit of joy in our lives.

Download or read book Out of Sorts written by Sarah Bessey and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2015-11-03 with total page 272 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From the popular blogger and provocative author of Jesus Feminist comes a riveting new study of Christianity that helps you wrestle with—and sort out—your faith. In Out of Sorts, Sarah Bessey—award-winning blogger and author of Jesus Feminist, which was hailed as “lucid, compelling, and beautifully written” (Frank Viola, author of God’s Favorite Place on Earth)—helps us grapple with core Christian issues using a mixture of beautiful storytelling and biblical teaching, a style well described as “narrative theology.” As she candidly shares her wrestlings with core issues—such as who Jesus is, what place the Church has in our lives, how to disagree yet remain within a community, and how to love the Bible for what it is rather than what we want it to be—she teaches us how to walk courageously through our own tough questions. In the process of gently helping us sort things out, Bessey teaches us how to be as comfortable with uncertainty as we are with solid answers. And as we learn to hold questions in one hand and answers in the other, we discover new depths of faith that will remain secure even through the storms of life.

Download or read book F ck Like a Goddess written by Alexandra Roxo and published by . This book was released on 2023-02-28 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Reclaim your power and lust for life, face your fears, and step into your most juicy self with this practical, dynamic guide. What if your deepest fears and wounds were the keys to living a passionate life, sharing your gifts with the world, and having mind-blowing orgasms along the way? And what if you could embrace all of you exactly as you are right now and still feel good? This is what it means to f*ck like a goddess—literally and metaphorically. To let life make love to you and enjoy every bit, even the parts that hurt, and to find the magic in all of it. So why is it so hard for women to simply feel comfortable in their own skin, let alone feel secure enough to freely share their gifts with the world? “Because each of us has been conditioned, programmed, and literally brainwashed into thinking we are not enough,” writes Alexandra Roxo, “and it is up to us to rewrite that story.” A prominent voice in transformational healing and the divine feminine, Roxo shares methods that have led to both her own healing and that of hundreds of her coaching clients. “We are in need of an uprising of bold, wild women who have reclaimed their bodies and stand in their sacred sexuality for them,” she writes. “As women, we need to liberate our voices, step into total security within ourselves, and fully own our raw, sensual power.” Now available in paperback, this book will inspire you, challenge you, and unleash your gifts. It won’t always be easy, but if you do the work, you’ll discover what it feels like to f*ck like a goddess.

Download or read book Patriarchy and Its Discontents written by Jean Petrucelli and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2022-12-30 with total page 201 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This anthology of interviews and essays joins luminaries in contemporary psychoanalysis with pioneers of feminism to provide a timely analysis of the crushing effects of patriarchy and the role that psychoanalysis can play in moving us into a future defined by mutuality and respect. Departing from the contemporary psychoanalytic view that the socio-political and intrapsychic are inextricably linked, contributors use psychoanalysis as a tool to demystify and even dismantle patriarchy, while also examining how our theories, practices, and institutions have been implicated in it. The issues under examination here include important and often under-theorized topics such as institutional responses to boundary violations, the search for a black-feminist psychoanalytic theory, patriarchal enactments within the trans community, the persistence of patriarchy within contemporary psychoanalysis, and the impacts of patriarchy on diverse patient populations and ways to address this clinically. This book represents the first anthology comprised of voices from both within and outside the psychoanalytic realm, outlining a contemporary feminist psychoanalysis for both an analytic and non-analytic audience. It is invaluable for both psychoanalysts and for those in gender studies wishing to draw on psychoanalytic thinking.

Download or read book Disrupt Her written by Miki Agrawal and published by Hay House, Inc. This book was released on 2019-01-29 with total page 296 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From the co-founder of THINX and hellotushy.com, start-ups collectively valued at more than $150 million, comes DISRUPT-HER, a rallying cry for women to radically question the status quo. Miki Agrawal has faced patriarchal pushback, fought girl-on-girl hate, ridden the roller coaster of building businesses as a female CEO, and even overcome an attempt to burn her for witchcraft (figuratively). In order to navigate the complicated--at times maddening--struggles of contemporary femininity, we need an unabashed manifesto for the modern woman that inspires us to move past outrage and take positive steps on the personal, professional, and societal levels. This manifesto galvanizes us to action in 13 major areas of our lives with as much fire power as possible. These are the credos we live by, the advice we give to friends, the tenets we instill in our companies and peers on a daily basis. Stories of badass female movers and shakers are shared in this book too to give you an extra jolt of "I've got this." It's a whole body F*CK YES to your work, your love, your relationships, and your mission--while doing it all authentically, unapologetically, and with full integrity.

Book excerpt: "They told you that you need to be thin and beautiful. They told you to wear longer skirts, avoid going out late at night, and move in groups. Wear shoes you can run in more easily than heels. Dress to flatter your apple, pear, hourglass figure, but don't look like a slut. They said if you're strong or opinionated, you'll be shrill, bossy, a ballbreaker. They said 'That's not for girls,' 'Take it as a compliment,' 'Don't rock the boat.' They told you 'Beauty is on the inside,' but you knew they didn't really mean it. Well screw that. I'm here to tell you something else. Everyday Sexism Project founder Laura Bates mocks the ludicrous pressures and stereotypes faced by young women today. Hilarious, bold, and unapologetic, Girl Up sets the record straight."--Back cover.

Download or read book Emotion written by Robert D. Kavanaugh and published by Psychology Press. This book was released on 1996 with total page 386 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume represents a range of approaches, both theoretical and applied, to the topic of emotion by neuroscientists, developmentalists, social and personality psychologists, and clinical psychologists. Readers should appreciate the diversity of questions and methods presented, as well as note the common ground that emerges in these discussions. Chapter coverage ranges from the neural bases of emotion to the role of emotion in psychotherapy. There are vigorous discussions regarding the concept of emotion, its role in development, and its application to contemporary problems such as violence and war. The papers in this volume begin a dialogue about possible intersections in the study of emotion from scholars who embrace sharply different perspectives on this complex topic -- a fitting tribute in memory of G. Stanley Hall.
