👍Worth reading🔮Hidden Depths💡Learnt A Lot🎯Worthwhile💞Loved Up🚀UnputdownableSomewhat infuriating to read as a woman, this book brings up all the social inequality and injustices we have to deal with every single day. Highly recommend!

👍Worth reading🔮Hidden Depths💡Learnt A Lot🎯Worthwhile💞Loved Up🚀UnputdownableThis is a type of book that makes you both sad and angry because you find yourself and your experience as a woman in this world in between every page. Growing up and going to high school doesn't mean just that; it means suddenly getting aware of how your male classmates perceive you as something rather than someone, going to a dinner organized by your male colleagues doesn't mean just eating something with people you work with; it means sitting through their gazes as if you're an animal in a zoo and getting pregnant and starting a family means getting rid of every dream you ever had.
The writing of this book flows so easily and is so simply written but that's because this is a harsh reality for so many women- it's those seemingly small things that society does to you that just build up inside of you and that make you start wondering "Do they even see me as a human?"
Seriously, this book should be given to every man to read because it's crazy how unaware men are when it comes to women's experience in this patriarchal world - em 💌делится впечатлением9 месяцев назад

They’d done quite a lot of chores around the house since they were young, but they thought of it as helping out their busy parents and taking care of themselves, not learning how to be good women. - Maria Araújoцитируетв прошлом месяце
This was a time when people believed it was up to the sons to bring honor and prosperity to the family, and that the family’s wealth and happiness hinged upon male success. The daughters gladly supported the male siblings. - Mariaцитирует9 месяцев назадKim Jiyoung, Born 1982 is a work of fiction. Names, characters, places, and incidents are the products of the author’s imagination or are used fictitiously. Any resemblance to actual events, locales, or persons, living or dead, is entirely coincidental.
Reading this when flipping the last page seems surreal when you've literally found women you know in between every page of this book. I so wish it was just fiction, but it isn't, for so many of us
