Summary
Natasha Walter: Living Dolls
The Return of Sexism
Empowerment, Liberation, Choice. The once key concepts of feminism have now been co-opted by a society that sells women an artificially beautified, highly sexualized and astonishingly narrow vision of femininity. And while opportunities for women have expanded, the ambitions of many girls are actually limited by a culture that sees female sexual attractiveness as the only ticket to success.
At the same time, we are forced to believe that the inequality we see all around us is created from innate biological differences, not social factors.
Of course, the natural desire of all men and all women has always been to be sexually attractive. However, in this generation, a specific type of female sexuality began to be celebrated. The one imposed by the porn industry, writes Natasha Walter, author of the modern classic "The New Feminism" and one of the most British cultural commentators. What is most worrying is the fact that today's society equates women's freedom with sexual objectification, which has a direct impact on the ambitions of young women. glamor models, i.e. girls whose only goal in life is to be photographed half-naked for the newspaper (and, if possible, marry a football player), who do nothing and, of course, are very popular.
Having collected the results of numerous researches and personal interviews in this direct and undeniably valuable book, Natasha Walter will make us start looking in a new way at today's sexism, femininity and feminism, but also at women and girls. If anyone doubts the necessity of protecting girls from the toxic, over-sexualized, discouraging environment in which they grow up, read this work.
