书籍介绍
这不是一本教人如何战斗的女权宣言，而是一篇只有几十页、源自一场TED演讲的清醒对话。作者刻意拒绝用'人权'这类宽泛词汇来消解性别议题——她坚持'女权主义者'这个词，正因为模糊它，就等于否认千百年来被排除在外的正是女性。书中最耐人寻味的，是那些'小得几乎察觉不到的刺痛'：一句语气、一个下意识的偏见，如何悄悄将女性边缘化。它适合这样一些人——愿意警惕'常态即正确'的错觉、相信'人创造文化'而非被文化裹挟、愿意从孩子的教育做起的人。它不制造对立，反而提醒：贫穷男性同样拥有男性特权；真正的平等，是让男女都摆脱刻板印象的束缚。

精彩摘录
- "Some people ask, "Why the word feminist? Why not just say you are a believer in human rights, or something like that?" Because that would be dishonest. Feminism is, of course, part of human rights in general- but to choose to use the vague expression 'human rights' is to deny the specific and partic"
- "有些人问，“为什么要用‘女权主义者’一词？为什么不直接说你主张人权，或类似那样的话？”因为那将具有欺骗性。女权主义，当然，是广义上人权的一部分——但选择使用“人权”这个含糊的表述，等于否认性别问题的特殊性和具体性。那将用以佯装，千百年来，受到排斥的不是女人。那将用以否认，性别问题针对的是女性。事实上，那个问题关系的不是全体人类，而是特定地关系到作为女性的人。千百年来，世界把人类分成两个群体，进而排斥和压迫一个群体。要解决问题，必须承认那一点，这才合理公道。 有些男人感觉受到女权主义观念的威胁。在我看来，这源自男孩从小所受的教育所触发的不安全感：男人，假如他们不能“自然地”居于主掌地位，他们的自"

用户评论
take nothing for granted
出来喝杯咖啡，一口气看完了，意犹未尽，太短了，不到60页。非常喜欢作者的表达方式，不是我对所以我进步，你错所以你落伍；是我亲历过所以我可能比你更懂一点儿，你暂时不懂没关系可我期待你能试着理解。非常empathy的表达，传递出一种让人不能拒绝的情感连接，柔软静谧式的愤怒跟委屈，让人反思，让男性能理解女性身处的环境。goodreads上23万读者打分有4.43分。
不掉书袋，不煽情的实话，见过作者本人，红唇红皮包，踩着高跟鞋去学校礼堂作演讲
Little things sting the most.
common sense feminism 101
Feminist Theory Seminar的Week 1读物，与其读这本小册子，还不如直接去看Adichie本人的演讲——她太有趣了！
用TED演讲出书，太不可思议了。
Concise and strong arguments presented
虽过时但也还不赖
“性别的问题是，它规定了我们应该如何，而不是承认我们是谁。”是的，我是一个 Feminist。
