“This book is not only smart, it is fun. It flirts with the margins of discourse on women's bodies, and then breaks their hearts. It ranges across time and form, drawing from multiple disciplines and forging connections among them. Students and professors of feminism in all fields will find things to delight them. Patriarchy, watch out: there will be blood!” -- Kate Kane, Ph.D. Department of Communication, Media, and Theatre, Northeastern Illinois University
