This is a must read. This shows the basic and misogynistic ways women are under attack on a daily basis. It shows clear cut throat facts. And the sentences are clear and easy for young audiences. There are facts, stories, every fact is sorted in the back of the book, statistics, and percentages. Personally, I found this book to be an easy read and very informative on our nations upbringing in the patriarchy and how every man benefits from this system. It is the sad reality. However, this read needs to be more popular for men. I encourage every man, woman, and anything in between to read this. Instead of them just saying, "There is no inequality." With no actual fact system behind this. And yes, it states in this book that many men will talk over confidently about knowledge they have invisible information on. It's a whole thing ;).
This book was delightful and informative. Kudos to the artist, Mrs. Harris, for writing a full series of informative writing. I have the sexism in the media book next.

This got me into a fight with my classmate. He said that all feminists are bad and that they lie.
