Steinem's truly personal writing is here, from the now-famous exposeÌ, "I Was a Playboy Bunny," to the moving tribute to her mother "Ruth's Song (Because She Could Not Sing It)". Her prescient essays on female genital mutilation and the difference between erotica and pornography that are still referenced and relevant today, and the hilarious satire, "If Men Could Menstruate" resonates as much as ever. As Watson writes of Steinem in her foreword, "She makes what otherwise can be arduous and depressing reading into something not only relatable, but also enjoyable... Her plain common sense, calling things out as they are, will make you laugh out loud. This is her superpower." 505 0 $a Foreword / by Emma Watson -- Life between the lines -- I was a Playboy bunny -- Campaigning -- Sisterhood -- College reunion -- Ruth's song (because she could not sing it) -- Words and change -- In praise of women's bodies -- The importance of work -- The time factor -- Men and women talking -- The politics of food -- Networking -- Erotica vs. pornography -- Marilyn Monroe: the woman who died too soon -- Patricia Nixon flying -- The real Linda Lovelace -- Jackie reconsidered -- Alice Walker: do you know this woman?
