Jessa Crispin, cultural critic and founder of Bookslut, offers a brilliant rejection of contemporary feminism-and demands something better.

Somewhere along the way, Jessa Crispin argues, the feminist movement sacrificed meaning for acceptance, and left us with a banal, polite, ineffectual pose that barely challenges the status quo. In this bracing, fiercely intelligent manifesto, she demands more.

Why I Am Not A Feminist is a radical, fearless call for revolution. It accuses the feminist movement of obliviousness, irrelevance, and cowardice-and demands nothing less than the total dismantling of a system of oppression.

"A taut and spirited attack on contemporary mainstream feminism....Forget busting glass ceilings. Crispin has taken a wrecking ball to the whole structure." - Kirkus (Starred review)
