My two favourites that I’ve really learnt the most from are – The no – nonsense guide to women’s rights which I picked up from Beerwolf in Falmouth (it’s pub with a bookshop in, guys!)
– Girl up – (not pictured because I am an idiot an left it at home over the Christmas holidays, but mentioned in this post) This book is great, especially for someone who is just getting in interested in feminism its so easy to read and full of illustrations. Its the perfect balance between informative and funny. The book is written by the amazing Laura Bates who started the everyday sexism project (which you must follow on social media).
Now these two just arrived earlier this week and I am so excited to read them both, I have been a massive fan of Caitlin Moran’s work and #girlboss is one of the most blogger / instagrammed books of recent but I am looking forward to the career motivating content.
Bloggers and Youtubers
Just want to mention a few women who created super feminist content in my opinion.
– Vix Meldrew’s dating and sex positive blog posts!
– Catitude &Co for super no BS postives on all kinds of topics (period sex, creating positive sex environment, feminist make up brands and more)
– Leena Norms, this girls youtube channel is one of my favourites she is just a super raw, honest feminist and a great channel for feminist recommendations and poetry. She is also part of the banging book club where once a month three of my fave youtubers (Lucy Moon, Hannh Witton [if you don’t already also subscribe to these two gals] and Leena) read and review books around sex and feminism such as Lolita.
Finally just a massive love to the five best gals (Ya know who you are Eve, Esmee, Immy, Immie and Jess) in my life. Who are there for me always, make me laugh, probably have looked after me when I got too drunk at least once and always support me! x
Love Charlotte
