A review by avsheppy
The Female Eunuch by Germaine Greer
1.0
I was bought this book as a gift and told it was a seminal feminist text. I appreciate that it was radical for its time (in favour of cis het white middle class women of its time) but I could not get past the transphobia, racism, homophobia and exclusionary gender essentialism. I won’t be recommending this book to anyone who wants to learn more about how to further our collective feminist movement for liberation, as it only highlighted the plight of a small number of privileged women and not our opportunities for communion with every ally of the feminist cause.
