Do yall know of any books detailing discrimination against women, specifically ones that discuss men’s success vs women’s, and how they differ because of their separate genders?

Remember the multivariable statistics and the impact of, say, personality characteristics.
If you go looking for something to dislike you’ll find it; but it might not be true. If you go looking for truth in a non-preconceived manner, you might find it. Seek truth. Truth is better.

*unwell women* by elinor cleghorn specifically deals with medical misogyny and is on my tbr! there’s also *complaints & disorders* by barbara ehrenreich & deirdre english, which again deals with the history of medical misogyny and how medicine has repeatedly written off women’s health for centuries.

Kim Ji-young, Born 1982 by Cho Nam-ju is a really good story about the sexism in Korea!!
HatenoCheese on
*Feminism is for Everybody* is a simple, clear introduction to the feminist movement and explains reasons behind it, including gender discrimination.
*Delusions of Gender* by Cordelia Fine takes a scientific perspective and looks at the way people are socialized differently after being assigned different genders, and the impacts of this socialization.
