Thirteen reflections on everyday patriarchy

Stephanie Davies organizes this feminist collection into thirteen reflections, ranging across the legacy of witch hunting, women’s encounters with domineering men, the patriarchal framing of gender as a binary, and male violence. The description also signals a more personal, questioning strand, including the possibility of seeing a dog through the lens of patriarchy. Together, these topics connect present-day experiences with longer histories of misogyny and resistance. Solidarity, creativity, and persistence are recurring concerns, giving the collection a mix of social critique and tribute to women’s efforts to challenge the conditions it examines.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Readers interested in feminist theory and accounts of everyday misogyny.
  • Readers seeking reflections that connect historical and contemporary gender issues.
  • Readers interested in solidarity and resistance as themes in feminist writing.

Book overview

The patriarchy getting you down? This is the book for you.

 

In thirteen reflections-because thirteen is a witchy number-lucky for women, unlucky for the patriarchy-Stephanie Davies tackles the everyday reality of women with stories that include the legacy of the witch hunters, getting tongue-tied in the presence of domineering men, the patriarchal obsession with the binary, the pandemic of male violence, and whether her dog is a victim of the patriarchy.

 

Stephanie offers a beacon of feminist light in this time of darkness. She captures the rage and grief we often feel as we navigate a world where male violence is on overdrive. And she offers a tribute to women everywhere-their solidarity, creativity, and spirit-as they've resisted misogyny for centuries and continue to resist it now more than ever.

 

Surviving a Patriarchy on Steroids tells it like it is, while encouraging us all to keep on loving, hoping, resisting, creating, and dancing, despite it all.
