This book wasn't only insightful but also very well written.This book confirmed many things I already believed in and experinced myself. Its filled with data, yes, but not in a dense way. Instead the author includes quotes, own experinces and other media examples right after the data and comments on it herself too. Every sentence felt very engaging. When I first saw the book I was a bit turned off by the page count. I felt like one can sum up the bad position of women in the world in less than 320 pages and I assumed there will be much repitition. Oh boy, having finished this book where each page is filled with multiple examples of womens discriminations, I feel like this book just scratched a surface. I would not have mineded to read another 600 pages (and tbh this could be a continuing series bc little changes for women
Failing to collect data on women and their lives means that we continuc to naturalise sex and gender discrimination - while at the same time somehow not seeing any of this discrimination. Or really,we don't see it because we naturalise it - it is too obvious, too com-monplace, too much just the way things are to bother commenting on. It's the irony of being a woman: at once hyper-visible when it comes to being treated as the subservient sex class, and invisible when it counts - when it comes to being counted.
