A new way of looking at feminism from one of our funniest writers.

1913 - Suffragette throws herself under the King's horse.
1969 - Feminists storm Miss World.
NOW - Caitlin Moran rewrites The Female Eunuch from a bar stool and demands to know why pants are getting smaller.

There's never been a better time to be a woman: we have the vote and the Pill, and we haven't been burnt as witches since 1727. However, a few nagging questions do remain...

Why are we supposed to get Brazilians? Should you get Botox? Do men secretly hate us? What should you call your vagina? Why does your bra hurt? And why does everyone ask you when you're going to have a baby?

Part memoir, part rant, Caitlin Moran answers these questions and more in How To Be a Woman - following her from her terrible 13th birthday ('I am 13 stone, have no friends, and boys throw gravel at me when they see me') through adolescence, the workplace, strip-clubs, love, fat, abortion, TopShop, motherhood and beyond.

Caitlin Moran

Caitlin Moran is the eldest of eight children,home-educated on a council estate in Wolverhampton, believing that if she werevery good and worked very hard, she might one day evolve into Bill Murray.

She published a children’s novel, The Chronicles of Narmo, at the age of16, and became a columnist at The Timesat 18. She has gone on to be named Columnist of the Year six times. At onepoint, she was also Interviewer andCritic of the Year - which is good going for someone who still regularlymistypes ‘the’ as ‘hte’. Hermulti-award-winning bestseller How to Bea Woman has been published in 28 countries, and won the British Book Awards’Book of the Year 2011.

Her two volumes of collected journalism, Moranthology and Moranifesto, were SundayTimes bestsellers, and her novel, Howto Build a Girl, debuted at Number One, and is currently being adapted as amovie. She co-wrote two series of the Rose d’Or-winning Channel 4 sitcom Raised by Wolves with her sister,Caroline.

Caitlin lives on Twitter with her husband and twochildren, where she spends her time tweeting either about civil rights issues, or that picture of Bruce Springsteen when he was 23, and has histop off. She would like to be remembered as ‘a very sexual humanitarian’.

This is a laugh out loud read....with a touch of all the emotions. Would be ideal for all young ladies to read and see how the other half fare in growing up.

How to be a Woman is a must read for everyone - males and females. It manages to be informative yet funny and very entertaining. I think if everyone read this we might actually have a chance at changing the status quo.
Should be year 10 compulsory reading.
