Outrageous Acts and Everyday Rebellions: Second Edition (Owlet Book)

Feminist or not...you ought to take a peep~

articulate, thoughtful, compassionate and inspiring.

Amazing - she has such insight and is such a beautiful, affecting writer.

I loved this book in the early 80's. It informed my view of the world and how women are treated. I recently re-read it and found some parts truly hilarious. There is no way my daughter could take some of this book seriously- the Playboy Club story and the depiction of woman in the 1968 presidential campaign seem like they happened on another planet.

I loved this book in the early 80's. It informed my view of the world and how women are treated. I recently re-read it and found some parts truly hilarious. There is no way my daughter could take some of this book seriously- the Playboy Club story and the depiction of woman in the 1968 presidential campaign seem like they happened on another planet. Even though we have made so much progress it saddens me to see how, in many ways, we have gone backward. We can laugh at the Playboy Bunnies of 40 years ago but the portrayal of women in the media is probably more destructive today than it was when Gloria wore bunny ears. This book works as a history of the women's movement and as a benchmark for how far we have come and how far we still have to go.   hide

every woman should read this book - hell, every man should too. required reading to learn truly about what gloria has done for women being where they are today - much that many girls today take for granted. truly my hero.

I own a signed copy of this which she signed for me this year when I went to see her speak! It was great fun.

there's a playboy bunny story that's interesting. And the Marilyn Monroe story is good too.

A must read for people who care about women rights and don't really understand what most women go through in both social and professional environment

this is SUCH a great book!
