Product details
Women Don't Owe You Pretty is a 2020 book by the British activist and illustrator Florence Given. On the topic of intersectional feminism, Given writes about relationships, body image and self-esteem for women. The book sold 100,000 copies within six months of publication and was listed on The Sunday Times' bestsellers list for twelve consecutive weeks, peaking at second place.
Through the lens of intersectional feminism and social privilege analysis, Given discusses topics including body positivity and self-esteem, consent in relationships, emotional labour, internalised misogyny, masturbation, microaggressions, rape culture and slut-shaming. The book contains checklists and questions for the reader to consider. Given gives advice on recognising gaslighting, racial fetishism and other negative actions or signs in a relationship, and discusses how queer relationships affect a culture of heteronormativity. She has a fictional conversation with her younger self as a framing device for exploring male validation.
The book's title is derived from a quote by lexicographer Erin McKean: "prettiness is not a rent you pay for occupying a space marked female".
