"Ideology is nice and all, but a girl has got to live a life. Suzanne Leonard has written a funny, generous, and very smart book for people who struggle to fit their airy ideals into the material world. A Feminist Guide to Marriage is a very humane book, and Leonard reminds us that pushing forward to a better future is only going to be a good time if we all get there together."—Jessa Crispin, author of What is Wrong with Men: Patriarchy, the Crisis of Masculinity, and How Michael Douglas Films Explain Everything"Leonard writes like a dream, and this counterintuitive book is smart, funny, extremely accessible and scholarly all at once.'"—Catherine Rottenberg, editor of This Is Not A Feminist Textbook
