Summary

It's a good 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 we use Botox? Do men secretly hate us? And why does everyone ask you when you're going to have a baby?

Part memoir, part rant, Caitlin answers the questions that every modern woman is asking.

Critic Reviews

Moran's writing sparkles with wit and warmth. Like the confidences of your smartest friend
I adore, admire and - more - am addicted to Caitin Moran's writing
Spectacular! Very, very funny, moving and revealing
I have been waiting for this book my whole life
Humour and common sense make Moran's redefining of hwat it means to be a feminist as readable as it is essential
A witty and bold account of modern womanhood... she is a genuinely original talent (Germaine Greer)
This might just be the funniest intelligent book ever written .. Moran's work packs a feminist punch in a way that Germaine Greer and an entire army of female eunuchs could never do, because she writes about things we've all done, thought, and said - but not quite so eloquently...the book everyone will be talking about
The book EVERY woman should read
Hilarious
Very, very funny...however, if you are female and particularly if you are a female under the age of 30, then, tucked around the jokes, Moran has provided you with a short, sharp, feminist manifesto. (Miranda Sawyer)

I loved it! some parts I tuned out mainly because the wit was lost on this 25 year old Australian at points but the message to be a strong woman and love the life you have is amazing
