Living Dolls: The Return of Sexism

by Natasha Walter - £9.99  Little, Brown Book Group (Virago Press) (2011)
paperback    ISBN 13: 9781844087099 | ISBN 10: 1844087093

‘I once believed that we only had to put in place the conditions for equality for the remnants of old-fashioned sexism in our culture to wither away. I am ready to admit that I was wrong.’
 
Empowerment, liberation, choice. Once the watchwords of feminism, these terms have now been co-opted by a society that sells women an airbrushed, highly sexualised and increasingly narrow vision of femininity. Drawing on a wealth of research and personal interviews, Living Dolls is a straight-talking, passionate and important book that makes us look afresh at women and girls, at sexism and femininity - today.
