Discuss and explore feminism in a fun, empowering environment. Learn how equal treatment of women in society will (obviously) better women’s lives, and men's as well.  Open to anyone that wants to explore feminism.  Meet with Jen the LAST SUNDAY of every month at 2pm  (Authors do not usually attend VB Reads) –He’s a Stud, She’s a Slut and 49 Other Double Standards Every Woman Should Know  by Jessica Valenti Double standards are nothing new. Women deal with them every day. In He’s a Stud, She’s a Slut, Jessica Valenti, author of Full Frontal Feminism, calls out the double standards that affect every woman. Whether Jessica is pointing out the wage earning discrepancies between men and women or revealing all of the places that women still aren’t equal to their male counterparts—be it in the workplace, courtroom, bedroom, or home—she maintains her signature wittily sarcastic tone. With sass, humor, and in-your-face facts, this book informs and equips women with the tools they need to combat sexist comments, topple ridiculous stereotypes (girls aren’t good at math?), and end the promotion of lame double standards.
Start: 4:00 pm
