The Seven Necessary Sins for Women and Girls

Mona Eltahawy gives her manifesto for feminism in a series of rage-filled chapters depicting seven necessary “sins” for women and girls. Eltahawy slams patriarchy and demands that her body is her own and her life is her own. The seven necessary sins allow women and girls to use their existing anger and destroy the patriarchal system in place that oppresses so many.

I didn't always follow the order and it seemed like some points were blended together and she made similar points in a few different places, however, I enjoyed the multi-cultural perspective and the urgency and rage that Eltahawy conveys beautifully.
