Description
In Broader Standards: On the Experience of Being Female, the essays challenge humanity to stop using the male as The Standard. Just by surviving "femaleness," women can claim the resilience that comes with compassion, adaptability, and the clarity to see beyond personal insult.
Jennifer Loustau's quick and breezy essays address issues from the female experience in the context of political and social events spanning the last 60 years. These events celebrate the gains women have made, and they point to the gaps -- and there are many -- that still remain. Appealing to men and women alike, the book is both pragmatic and idealistic, angry and funny, silly and wise.
