- Description
- With this book Chancer takes stock of the American feminist movement. She articulates four common causes ( advancing political and economic equality, allowing intimate and sexual freedom, ending violence against women and expanding the cultural representation of women ) considering each in turn to assess what has been gained (or not). It is around these shared concerns, Chancer argues, that we can continue to build a vibrant and expansive feminist movement and articulates a broad agenda developed through advancing intersectional concerns about class, race, and sexuality.

- Description
- Rhode analyzes the challenges the feminist movement faces today.She focuses on five main topics: employment issues such as pay discrimination, work-life balance and the government's pitiful response, the assault on women's reproductive rights and the limits it places on their economic mobility, sexual harassment and violence, and the detrimental effect that the unfashionable label 'feminist' can have, especially in attracting young women to the movement. Despite these obstacles, Rhode thinks that the goals and principles of feminism are widely accepted by the American mainstream.

- Description
- Kristan Poirot demonstrates that contemporary theories about sex, gender, identity, and difference compel a rethinking of the history of feminist movements and their rhetorical practices. .Poirot focuses on five case studies : the circulation of Sojourner Truth's 'Ain't I a Woman?' in early and contemporary feminist contexts: the visual rhetorics of the feminist self-help health movement: the public discourse of Elizabeth Cady Stanton and early nineteenth-century ideas about suffrage, sex, and race: the conflicts over lesbian sexuality in the 1960s and 1970s: and the discourse that surrounds twenty-first-century SlutWalks. In the process, Poirot rethinks the terms through which we understand U.S. feminist movements to explore the ways feminism has questioned sexed distinctions and practices over time.

- Description
- This book is an anthology of essays written by and about pro-feminist men. In the essays anti-sexist men make sense of their gendered experiences in today's culture. They reflect on growing up, share moments in their day-to-day lives, and pose questions about being a pro-feminist male living, working, thinking, and learning in a sexist society. The book is strategically positioned at the intersection of feminist literature and masculinity studies

- Description
- Through an investigation of three feminist communitiesthe author shows how contemporary feminists react to the local environment currently shaping their identities, tactics, discourse, and relations with other feminist generations. By moving the analysis to the community level, Reger illustrates how feminism is simultaneously absent from the national, popular culture--'nowhere'--and diffused into the foundations of American culture--'everywhere.' Reger addresses some of the most debated topics concerning feminists in the twenty-first century. How do contemporary feminists think of the second-wave generation? Has contemporary feminism succeeded in addressing racism and classism, and created a more inclusive movement? How are contemporary feminists dealing with their legacy of gender, sex, and sexuality in a world of fluid identity and queer politics? The answers, she finds, vary by community.

- Description
- The modesty movement makes some good points about the effect a hypersexual culture can have on women's well-being and sense of self. And it's hard to argue that corporations and pop-culure products that reduce women and girls to consumers of constructed sexuality are deeply problematic. But by claiming that modesty is the only solution, and by overlooking long-term feminist efforts to expand both women's access to sexual pleasure and the right to say no, the new-modesty hucksters are doing women no favors.

- Description
- The 2012 election was supposed to be about the economy, but over the last few months it turned into a debate about sex and women’s rights. Cohen explores such topics as why Bill Clinton was impeached over a private sexual affair: how George W. Bush won the presidency by stealth: why Hillary lost to Obama: why John McCain chose Sarah Palin to be his running mate: and what the 2012 presidential contest tells us about America today. She exposes the surprising role of right-wing women in undermining women’s rights, as well as explains how liberal men were complicit in letting it happen. Cohen uncovers the hidden history of an orchestrated, well-financed, ideologically powered shadow movement to turn back the clock on matters of gender equality and sexual freedom and how it has played a leading role in fueling America’s political wars.
