Girlsplaining by Katja Klengel

I did not expect much out of this book. Kinda figured it would be yet another feminist manifesto thinly disguised as a cartoon guide to womanhood or something along those lines. Just grabbed it on a whim for a quick mindless read and it ended up being a pleasant surprise.
Yes, it is absolutely a feminist cartoon feature, message and all, but if one must have such a message, it’s best presented on a platform as funny as this. And this book is seriously funny. At times laugh out loud so.
The author uses her own life, both real and imaginary scenarios, to talk about things like body acceptance, sex confidence and popularizing the word vulva. The cartoons are silly and pink (Elle Woods would be proud), but beneath the silly exterior you’ll find refreshing frankness, cleverness and an actual barrel or so of laughs. So this is really a deceptively cute book.
Whether you want to raise a fist and nod along with someone who speaks your truth or have women demystified and girlsplained to you or just after some quick laughs, this is well worth checking out. Pink and silly a it may seem. Fun approach to feminism...you go, girl. Something along those lines, anyway.
