Title: GIRLS WILL BE GIRLS.
Authors: BRANDON ROBSHAW
Source: Independent (UK). 02/21/2016.
Abstract: This is a memoir about growing up in Galway, about wanting to be thin and feminine, about questioning what it is to be feminine, about attending a mass nude photo-shoot, about showing off armpit hair on This Morning, about reading Foucault, Judith Butler and Naomi Wolf, about how porn affects sex (not positively), about conversations with Aristotle, about friends and boyfriends, dressing up and dressing down, getting a Hollywood waxing (ow), about doing a PhD, and, generally, about trying to destabilise the rigid confines of gender. It's written in a bouncy, lively style, occasionally a bit sententious, but generally likeable and sensible. My two teenage daughters would like this. [ABSTRACT FROM PUBLISHER]
