Amazing, 10 stars if I could
I can’t recommend this book enough. Debunks gender sterotypes in human beings through exploring the ignored nature of female animals. Exposes and explains how current misogynistic sterotypes that have seeped so deeply into society originated in now debunked and irrelevant theories by male scientists who ignored females of nearly every species and wrote them off as passive, boring, and nothing but mothers with no say in their reproduction and no agency.
