Prose collection from Roxane Gay, the most notable young cultural observer of her generation, including politics, criticism, feminism
"Pink is my favorite color, my favorite color is black is cool, but pink - everything pink.If I have accessories it may be pink.I read the vogue Although it is not ironic, I announced a tweet on September issue. "
In these intriguing and insightful articles Roxane Gay guided the evolution of color (help) as a woman (Sweet Valley Peak) and also the culture of the past years (reader, girl, Django,) link) Comments on the situation of today's feminist (Abortion, Chris Brown). The portrait that appears is to understand not only the growing women but also ourselves and our society, and one of our culture.
A bad feminist is a sharp, intriguing and interesting observation of the culture we consume, our way of doing, and an inspiring call to all the ways we still need to do.
This was in front of Roxanne Gay 's exquisite book Bad Feminist. It touches what I felt as a feminist, and it relieves me that it is ok even if it is a bad feminist. You can enjoy very bad music for women. You can still be a feminist. You must be sincere. And I learned a difficult way. I am a small girl, so I was never called obesity altogether, but never was thin. It always means "Oh, if she loses a few pounds, she will be attractive!" I admire my "cute" function in my youth. My little nose, my eyes between the lid and the lid, between the plumped lip and the caramel skin, I am a perfect example of a "cute" Korean girl. It is always very cute. It is by no means beautiful. It is not beautiful. But as I get older, I feel that I am very cute. Therefore, people insist on saying the old way of saying, "You are beautiful in your own way." "You are not so beautiful." There is always something incidental to it
I found another comment by Lauren Oyler about Bad Feminist on "bookslut.com" Opposition: Disagree: Bad Feminist and Its Dissatisfaction ". The first sentence begins with "I always hate sentences from Roxane Gay ...". Therefore, before reading it again, I saved this article in Pocket and pledged to return to that article if I finished reading my book by myself. I pressured under the blanket of the living room on a cold rainy day before dawn, finished a bad feminist and took out breast milk (mother, I am learning, infinite luxury). Before delving into Euler's view on this book, I would like to express my thoughts.
On the early Bad Feminist page, Gay explained her own self-marking. She wrote, "Because I am human, I accept bad feminist labels, I am confused, I do not want to be an example, I do not want to be perfect. I have all the answers I do not want to say, I do not want to say. "This statement regains you and asks if you admit that he is not perfect. Please answer this question: Yes, she did it. Surely, this selfless expression is rare in times when self-love is full of our lives.
