《۵۰ دلیل برای اینکه چرا زن بودن محشر است》
《نشرِ چابک اندیش-ترجمه مجتبی کاظمی》
این کتاب سال 1994 نوشته شده و حقیقتا کتابِ جالب و مختصر و مفیدی بود. از تمام مزایا و فکت‌های علمی و جسمی و روحی و هوشیِ زنان شروع میکنه تا دستاوردهایی که در طول تاریخ به دست آوردن و تاثیراتی که رو سیاست و اقتصاد و ورزش و همه چی گذاشتن که مهم ترینش ابداع کشاورزی بوده.البته که این دلایل و دستاوردها بیشتر از ۵۰ تاس ولی این کتاب کوتاه واقعا میتونه هدیه‌ی خوبی به بچه‌ها و نوجوون‌ها و مخصوصا مردها باشه!
لذت بردم؛حتما بخونید برای اطلاعات عمومی خیلی خوبه.

«زنان نه تنها در شرایط سخت روحی از تحمل بالایی برخوردارند بلکه دردهای جسمی را نیز بیشتر تحمل میکنند.
زنان به سبب اینکه از نظر حس لامسه حساس ترند درد را شدیدتر درک میکنند.
اما چرا تحمل درد برای زنان راحت تر است؟!
زیرا طبیعت زنان را برای آماده سازی و پرورش بوجود آورده است.
تئو لانگ در کتاب تفاوت زنان و مردان مینویسد: بهتر است بجای جمله "مرد باش" که برای آرام کردن کسی که از درد مینالد بکار می بریم، بگوییم "زن باش".»

This is a cute book I mostly picked up for my daughter, but found really fun to skim through. It's one of those books easily picked up or put down because it's divided into 50 short articles based on different reasons why being a girl is great. There is a lot of fun information on women in history (like Susan B. Anthony and Rosa Parks) as well as scientific facts (like that girls have superior fine motor skills.) I think any teen girl would really like it and it could be a fun discussion starter for mothers and daughters.

It was a very interesting read. I actually enjoyed the facts shared in the book. It was a really inspiring book and also quite enjoyable and easy to read.

"Shannon, I'm so proud that you are my Daughter. I'm sure you'll grow up to be an honest, respectable, kind, strong, self-reliant, compassionate, intelligent, and beautiful adult woman. Love you always, Mom 1994"

This book is pretty much singlehandedly responsible for making me a feminist.

If you're needing a pick-me-upper, then this book will surely boost your spirits up. Read it, and smile.
