description: Change the way you think about gender and feminism forever. With all the revolutionary zeal laugh-out-loud humour and intelligence of Laura Bates Caitlin Moran and Bell Hooks Emer O'Toole explores what it really means to 'act like a girl'.Being a woman is largely about performance - how we dress and modify our bodies what we say the roles we play and how we conform to expectations. Gender stereotypes are still deeply embedded in our society but Emer O'Toole is on a mission to re-write the old script and bend the rules of gender - and she shows how and why we should all be joining in.With game-changing ideas and laugh-out-loud humour this book will open your mind and revolutionise the way that you think about gender.
