Book Description
In the time of the #MeToo and #TimesUp movement, international bestselling author and leading global expert on mental strength Amy Morin turns her focus to feminism, explaining what it means—and what it takes—to be a mentally strong woman. The emergence of the #MeToo and #TimesUp movements have awakened society and encouraged women to find their voice and claim their power. But to do this, women must learn to improve their own mental strength. Contending with a host of difficult issues—from sexual assault on college campuses, to equal pay and pay gaps, to mastering different negotiation styles—demands psychological toughness. In this crucial book, prominent psychotherapist and licensed clinical social worker Amy Morin gives women the techniques to build mental muscle—and just as important, she teaches them what not to do. What does it mean to be a mentally strong woman? Delving into critical issues like sexism, social media, social comparison, and social pressure, Amy addresses this question and offers thoughtful, intelligent advice, practical tips, and specific strategies and combines them with personal experiences, stories from former patients, and both well-known and untold examples from women from across industries and pop culture. Throughout, she explores the areas women—and society at large—must focus on to become (and remain) mentally strong. Amy reveals that healthy, mentally tough women don’t insist on perfection; they don’t compare themselves to other people; they don’t see vulnerability as a weakness; they don’t let self-doubt stop them from reaching their goals. Wise, grounded, and essential, 13 Things Mentally Strong Women Don’t Do can help every woman flourish—and ultimately improve our society as well.

Shakespeare's Heroines
Author: Anna Murphy Jameson
Publisher: Broadview Press
ISBN: 9781551113241
Category : Literary Criticism
Languages : en
Pages : 472
Book Description
First published in 1832, Shakespeare’s Heroines is a unique hybrid of Shakespeare criticism, women’s rights activism, and conduct literature. Jameson’s collection of readings of female characters includes praise for unexpected role models as varied as Portia, Cleopatra, and Lady Macbeth; her interpretations of these and other characters portray intellect, passion, political ambition, and eroticism as acceptable aspects of women’s behaviour. This inventive work of literary criticism addresses the problems of women’s education and participation in public life while also providing insightful, original, and entertaining readings of Shakespeare’s women. This Broadview Edition includes a critical introduction that places Shakespeare’s Heroines in the context of Jameson’s literary career and political life. Appendices include personal correspondence and other literary and political writings by Jameson, examples of eighteenth- and nineteenth-century Shakespeare criticism, and selections from Victorian conduct books.

Fed Up
Author: Gemma Hartley
Publisher: HarperCollins
ISBN: 0062856480
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 283
Book Description
A bold dive into the emotional labor women have shouldered for far too long—and an impassioned vision for creating a better future for us all. Day in, day out, women anticipate and manage the needs of others. In relationships, we initiate the hard conversations. At home, we shoulder the mental load required to keep our households running. At work, we moderate our tone, explaining patiently and speaking softly. In the world, we step gingerly to keep ourselves safe. We do this largely invisible, draining work whether we want to or not—and we never clock out. No wonder women everywhere are overtaxed, exhausted, and simply fed up. In her ultra-viral article “Women Aren’t Nags—We’re Just Fed Up,” shared by millions of readers, Gemma Hartley gave much-needed voice to the frustration and anger experienced by countless women. Now, in Fed Up, Hartley expands outward from the everyday frustrations of performing thankless emotional labor to illuminate how the expectation to do this work in all arenas—private and public—fuels gender inequality, limits our opportunities, steals our time, and adversely affects the quality of our lives. More than just name the problem, though, Hartley teases apart the cultural messaging that has led us here and asks how we can shift the load. Rejecting easy solutions that don’t ultimately move the needle, Hartley offers a nuanced, insightful guide to striking real balance, for true partnership in every aspect of our lives. Reframing emotional labor not as a problem to be overcome, but as a genderless virtue men and women can all learn to channel in our quest to make a better, more egalitarian world, Fed Up is surprising, intelligent, and empathetic essential reading for every woman who has had enough with feeling fed up.

12 Character Types of Women
Author: Xanthin Smith
Publisher: Mansmarts Academy
ISBN: 9780615550794
Category : Self-Help
Languages : en
Pages : 124
Book Description
Women are like automobiles, they come designed and built in a variety of shapes, sizes, makes, models and colors. Each, uniquely equipped with their own set of key features, benefits and capabilities. Some come standard, while others come custom built with extras. The number one reason men are unsuccessful in dealing with women is not because of a lack of confidence, it's because of a lack of clarity. In other words, confusion. The problem is that most men have no clue of which character type of woman they're dealing with. Even worse, most men have a "one size fits all" strategy for dealing with all women. Women are more complex than that. The "one size fits all" way of thinking and behaving will only lead to more confusion, disappointment, frustration and failure. The 12 Character Types of Women solves that problem. For the first time ever, women are revealed and classified into one of twelve character types in an easy-to-follow, easy-to- understand, systemized format. For example, the profile of a Gold Digger is totally different than that of a Shy Girl, Feminist, Sweetheart or Diva and you need to know the difference. To understand a woman you must understand her mind, emotions and behavior. To understand her mind, emotions and behavior, you must understand the underlying factors that create and determine how she thinks, feels and acts. Success in anything requires clarity, a set of strategies and techniques and a sense of good timing based on a strong foundation of knowledge, wisdom and understanding. The 12 Character Types of Women is the beginning, the foundation, the blueprint to your better understanding of women and your guide to greater success and happiness in life.

Women, Crime, and Character

Book Description
This book draws on law, literature, philosophy and social history to explore fundamental changes in ideas of selfhood, gender and social order in 18th and 19th Century England. Lacey argues that these changes underpinned a radical shift in mechanisms of responsibility-attribution, with decisive implications for the criminalisation of women.
