description: Are you a feminist? Do you believe women are human beings and that they deserve to be treated as such? That women deserve all the same rights and liberties bestowed upon men? If so then you are a feminist . . . or so the feminists keep insisting. But somewhere along the way the movement for female liberation sacrificed meaning for acceptance and left us with a banal polite ineffectual pose that barely challenges the status quo. In this bracing fiercely intelligent manifesto Jessa Crispin demands more.Why I Am Not A Feminist is a radical fearless call for revolution. It accuses the feminist movement of obliviousness irrelevance and cowardiceand demands nothing less than the total dismantling of a system of oppression.
