Lädt ... Sexist Shit that Pisses Me Offvon Peg Tittle
Keine Keine aktuelle Diskussion zu diesem Buch.  Diese Rezension wurde für LibraryThing Member Giveaways geschrieben. When I first started reading this book, I thought that it was a parody. After reading more, I believe that I was wrong. While I'm far from being in the 'I hate men' group, I do have to concede that I did find myself agreeing with the author on a few points. There were a lot of opinions throughout this book that I have never thought about before, so it was interesting to read about her perspective. There were a few opinions that I wholeheartedly agreed with, and some that I had to laugh at. But, after all, the only way we can learn about the world is to listen to the thoughts of others. I can't say that my opinion about men has totally changed, but it certainly did make me more aware about a couple of issues.

Sexist Shit that Pisses Me Off!I received this ebook free through LibraryThing member giveaway in return for my honest review. When I began reading this book I got into it but as it went on I started to think about what kind of life is this person living, does she pick apart every aspect of everything to see if she can find a reason the females are treated differently then males. Some parts I found quite interesting and gave me a chuckle about the truth in "the pill for men". I just thought it was overkill on the subject and there was some grasping at straws to see the sexism in some of the chapters. I am a women and although some of the things in the book are very relevant and unfair to our gender I choose to live my life how it makes me the happiest. I do not dwell on looking for the negative in others and to me it felt kind of like the author was doing that. I found myself sympothizing with this person and wondering who or what made her to be such an angry person. I think the book is well written, just too much negativity in one place for me. I like to see the positives as opposed to the wrongs in a situation. (  ) Kimmyd76 | Sep 12, 2014 | Diese Rezension wurde für LibraryThing Member Giveaways geschrieben. Peg Tittle writes an interesting opinion book about sexism and feminism. The book is broken down into 1-3 page topics about issues regarding society's views of boys and girls roles. It also addresses the cultural norms of modern day behavior. Half of the book was amusing and funny. It made me chuckle and agree on several points. The other half was philosophical and became emotional in several places. I learned way more about the author's personal life than I really needed to know. This book is good for a public library, but not a school library. ( ) chutchi | Aug 6, 2014 | Diese Rezension wurde für LibraryThing Member Giveaways geschrieben. I do understand that sexism is present in our everyday world, because I get upset when people ask why I haven't had kids yet, or married, or why my house isn't spotless, and other stupid questions. However, I thought this book was going to be written more on a storyline or other professional sounding basis. Instead, this is a collection of personal opinions on a lot of small issues, some are large. If you actually read the full book, the reader will realize that sexism goes both ways. Yes, there are issues, but some of the issues talked about in this book I don't think are worth mentioning. However, there were some great issues in the book. I, honestly, would start to read each chapter and if I felt they were irrelevant I would go on to the next chapter. There were also a few stories of the author's experience in life, that made some issues more interesting because the story captured my attention more than the subject. However, I think some subjects the author addressed should have been expanded upon, while other issues minimized, or not mentioned at all.
